Arti 02/22/21 6:35:59 PM #199:	#13 - Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor (DS, 2009) Back in 2009 I had not yet come to Board 8 nor did I have any non-Nintendo systems at the time so my knowledge of the Shin Megami Tensei series at the time was a flat nothing. I saw this game being written up in Nintendo Power for a bit and thought that I should definitely pick this game up. This started a chain reaction in where I would pick up every Shin Megami Tensei game since then and beat only like half of them, but this one I did everything in the game I could. Twice. Devil Survivor, unlike the main series, is a strategy RPG. However, like most games in the series, it is set in modern-day Tokyo where an outbreak of demons happen. The protagonist sees a number by everyone which is their "death clock" showing how many days a person has to live, though the number can change based on various events. During the game you can talk to various other people within the lockdown zone where the demons are, and at the end you're forced to make an alignment choice to basically depend on what endings you can get, determined by who you visited during the previous days and who is still alive at that time. One person's route is always available, but it's very easy to set the game up to have all six options ready to be chosen, and I've done it many times when playing this and its 3DS remake to completion. And yes, when I said I did complete both games, it means I beat the bonus boss in both the DS and 3DS versions as well, and knowing Atlus it was definitely one of the hardest challenges I've done in a video game. The 3DS version is still my most played game in the Activity Log on that system with over 125 hours and will probably never be surpassed. I never did get very far into Devil Survivor 2, which is kind of weird as I liked this one so much, but it never seemed to click with me the way this game did. Maybe because it was released on the DS after the 3DS remake of this game came out? In Japan that was reversed so it wasn't an issue there. Regardless of what the reason was for that, the first Devil Survivor is one of the best strategy RPGs available for both the DS and 3DS, and well worth your time. --- http://backloggery.com/articuno2001/sig.gif azuarc may not know the strength of songs in VGMC, but he conquered the guru in Game of the Decade 2!
