Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey owns what it is...
When I first dabbled with Shin Megami Tensei a few years ago, one of the games that grabbed me the most was Strange Journey Redux. Recently I felt compelled to revisit this title via the DS original, and now that I've seen it through to the end I wanted to give my two cents.

    Overall i like Ocarina of Time dungeons the best, except for the Water Temple. After that, i think i prefer the dungeons from Twilight Princess with Arbiters Grounds easily being the best in the game. Skyward Sword would be next. Some dungeons are better than others but overall not as memorable as OoT or TP. And then in last place would Majoras Mask. I may be among the minority but i hate the game. Its awful and unplayable, just pure misery packed into a game. I hated so much i stopped playing after Snowhead. I am intrigued by Stone Tower temple because everyone says its great but not intrigued enough to play Majoras Mask ever again. I dont have an opinion of Wind Waker or Breath of the Wild since I've never played them.

      For a long time my Majora's Mask playthroughs stopped just after Snowhead too, specifically Pirate Fortress (even with Stone Mask). What I've realized since finishing the game for the first time on the channel is that MM rewards game knowledge more than most. In going back to it recently I've found more enjoyment in executing efficient cycles, applying what I learned previously while continuing to learn more about what makes it tick.

    16:22 BN4 is the only game with versions I can say are definitive with one another, Red Sun is superior over Blue Moon and its not hard to see why. Even the weakest Soul Combination for the first playthrough of Red Sun, Guts-Wind-Thunder is still miles better than the worst Blue Moon combo, Aqua-Wood-Junk. New Blue Moon players are going to absolutely struggle against Duo because they don't have any good Double Souls to use against him.

    So, today marks DDS 1's 20th anniversary, and not only did Atlus finally release both games' OSTs on music platforms, they also acknowledged the anniversary on their social media account, and announced that there will be merch coming out to celebrate it. I hope that all of this attention from Atlus means that we're getting some kind of re-release. I agree with what you said in the last portion of the video - even a simple port of the games will be enough, they're just so good that I really don't think they need a remake. The only things I would change about them is the random encounters, I'm fine with either lowering the random encounter rate or removing them completely.

      Conceptually it makes sense, but the execution is really lacking imo. The gas station attendant should technically be around the entire game but has next to no screen time at all. The "twist" comes completely out of left field and is so easily missable that it feels like an afterthought.

      It's a very easily missable component to the story that leads to the true final dungeon and final boss fight (I missed it completely on my first playthrough too). The day you leave Inaba you can go to the rooftop of Junes one last time.

      I'll admit it was cool seeing the PTs react to Okumura's death, but they way overdid it on the foreshadowing in P5

    The villains in Persona games were never the strong point in my opinion but i did love how unhinged Adachi was. I know Metaphor is not megaten i hope the game is going to have interesting villains

      True, thankfully these games have a lot more going for them. Very excited to see what they do with Metaphor, would be great to see a new top tier antagonist from Atlus

    I honestly don't like Strega at all, like the Reload convos they added between Makoto and Takaya were cool for the most part, but he's such a Redditor it's hard to take him super seriously ESPECIALLY with how lame Makoto's dialogue responses are (makes sense for his non-confrontational nature, but he's confronting a murderer dawg). One of P5's biggest problems is the spoonfeeding like you mentioned along with the villains being so one-note. Royal has unused content where each will seed would give you flashbacks about how they got where they are, and I'm sooooo mad they didn't keep those in (though only the first two dungeon's had any unused content so they were probably scrapped pretty early on). Akira Konoe's backstory is pretty cool in the sense that they actually went there, but I agree the execution is whatever, and the fact that the characters lowkey still treat him like a murderer (yes they sympathize with him but they're still like "bruh you killed your own father...") is weird Ichinose W ALL MY HOMIES HATE SHO

      Yea in the grand scheme Strega’s pretty whatever. At least they have memorable designs/story presence even if their characterization is half baked (which is more than can be said for most of these jobbers lol) I remember hearing about the will seed flashbacks being cut too, damn shame. Also the fact that Konoe’s backstory is way darker than I recalled while somehow being forgettable is wild

      Also about Strega I think, how do I say this. Well, we were introduced to them in that scene where it was revealed they were a part of the revenge site but that revenge site was never brought up again. It was teased like it was going to be a plot point but nothing happened with it and then I don't understand why they waited so late to attempt to free Chihaya. They really believed at the time that the Dark Hour was going to disappear if the past full moon shadow was killed so you think they'd do everything to prevent that like getting an extra person. I also think the end with them didn't make much sense either. Takaya was suddenly behind this cult and he knew about Nyx and wanted the world to end too but he seemed so concerned about keeping the Dark Hour so he can keep his powers. I never got what their goal was.

      Yeah. One would create a dystopia because he lacks any faith in humanity, and the other is Adachi.
