This just in... Stephen got out of his wheel chair... the world is done for.
I always suspected he can do that..
TheRezro Oh I have a prequel story idea about Steven I came up with before the form/ life we currently know him as in his past life he experienced similar things to that of Demi-Fiend and in the end ended up confronting the great will/ The Axiom demanding he stop this madness of energy conceptions! Well in the end he proved he should at least be heard but if he truly wanted to save humanity he would be given 1000 lifetimes aka reincarnations to prove their worth and power to the Axiom, that the Conseption isn't needed to push mankind forward. With this his world is restored and it's not until the end of the game where he would give his real name instead of the nickname made by the player to his main companion on this quest that being a Jack Frost find him in the next life because they've got a lot of work to do.
Niece fan-fic though you need include that he was a scientist working on teleportation (Star Trek style that is using digitization) who discovered that remnants of human thoughts stay as data in the system. He call those a Expanse and perform series of experiments on it until he be coincidence summoned demon who attack him almost killing (though there is a theory that he could also replace him.. what considering that you can't easily kill demon without proper tech is quite probable). Anyway he end on wheelchair and his research leak to management who start full scale experiments on high scholars. As answer he created Demon Summoning Program which crack system he originally created and later he start work for will of expanse itself.
Alot of people are speculating that Stephen is Nakajima, from the 1987's Megami Tensei.
breaking news: we be f*cked
When Stephen gets out of his chair you know shit is about to get serious, not just that when Stephen shares the same theme as YHVH, gives me chills everytime
>Helps out Aleph
>Uses Megido Ark
it took me 10 seconds to get the joke xD
Oh the 𝓘𝓡𝓞𝓝𝓨 😂😂😂
Kazuya the Hero of Tokyo, Aleph the Artificial Messiah of Tokyo Millennium, Naoki the Demi-Fiend, Flynn the Samurai, and Nanashi the Demon Hunter face off against the God-Emperor of Mankind: Stephen Hawking. All we need is Captain Albert Shepard from Strange Journey and this tag team is complete.
Wait, whose side did you want Tadano on? The five messiahs or Stephen's?
***** Whose Tadano?
Strange Journey's protagonist
***** Oh, I call him Captain Albert "Al" Shepard, US Marine Corp.
Shepard won't be getting an English VA in Strange Journey Redux. None of the characters will.
THE ONE FREAKING GAME where it would be most appropriate to have English VAs!
-.-
ATLUS USA... you really fucked up this time.
I find it awesome how the creator of the demon summoning program is more powerful than God.
YHWH did the most evilest thing to the 4 previous protagonist's ture power.
YHWH disabled their "Save" and "Reload" in their universe.
YHWH you monster (:
Here is a interesting question with the fight against Stephen, why didn't the four protagonist use their Demons?
Why didn't Flynn in Shin Megami Tensei Apocalypse use Demons. It's not like the four protagonist set the Demons free like birds... or like Ash Ketchum (:
Micheal Hudgens Demi - Fiend Doesn't need, them the other 3 their skills are arr basically them implied to be useing them
Demi-Fiend of Time Except for Flynn, cause he's actually using Masakado's Katana(a holy/almighty weapon) when he fights YHVH.
also lets not forget what Aleph did in SMT 2 ... he basically punch , slash and shoot a certain "one" until its dead.
1 533 wut u d1d 7h4r. 🤣
I like how Kazuya (SMT1 Protagonist) is on par with other SMT Protagonist even though he's in midpoint of the story. Really puts you on prespective on how powerful he is and why Lucifer is afraid of him.
That's still sadly nothing to the noucturn version of the demi fiend (mid game)
Guy (on any route just make sure its mid game) can best raidou who's superior to Mido who's on par with Stephen.
That's mid game demi fiend.
End game (true demon route) demi fiend would tear apart everyone. here.
@@jackour8167 True demon not canon doe
@@sirlimen333 evidence? There isn't. All routes are Canon.
And the majority of the Fandom uses true demon ending
@@jackour8167 Not true, Demi-Fiend never canonically beat YHVH, Aleph did.
So him and Nanashi are the strongest, it could even be argued that Demi-Fiend never fought Lucifer at full strength, also, this Demi-Fiend is from the actual Lucifer Battle, yet he died, doesn't seem to be stronger than Steven either.
@@darkhorse744 god f*cking dang it this argument again.
Noucturn's demi fiend and messiah demi fiend are different
So what if they beat Yhvh? Stephen is infinitely, INFINITELY above Yhvh so beating Yhvh isn't as impressive as keeping up with Stephen.
Messiah demi fiend never died. He said he THOUGHT he died. But he didn't. It was said that Stephen was the one who brought him and the rest of the messiahs to fight him.
Noucturn's demi fiend stalemated raidou who's superior to Mido who's on par with Stephen. Defeating lucifer wasn't any impressive as stalemating raidou.
So please stop. Defeating Yhvh isn't any where near as impressive as existing in the same level as Stephen.
The scaling should be :
Noucturn's demi fiend (TDE) >>>Dante>==raidou >>Mido = Saint Germaine = Stephen >>messiah demi fiend >=kazuya >nanashi=>Flynn => aleph
Also I never mentioned demi fiend beating Yhvh tf?
open the door
get on the floor
everybody do
the demon lord
Nekko Blue your going to Hell for that pun
or play on words
KaiserTheDemon
That's ok, I'd love to go down, meet with Demi-Fiend, and have a nice chat. :3

*EVERYBODY*
*DO THE DINOSAUR*
Lucifer, Demi-Fiend and desu1 naoya be like
“Stephen stands up” *Universe explodes*
God it's over. Man I always get hyped for new smt because they make me remember how I first found Johne. Then get bummed when they end because they're my favorite Johne videos. Your my fave Johne
The fox king Of warchester just wait till 4/4 this year ;)
Now wait until 12 of november this year
Demifiend using magic? Eewwwww
Connor Martin You haven't played Nocturne have you?
i nearly vomited
Zadalmelik011 STR OR BUST
SuperGuido "Act unfazed" :v
don't worry, the magic is from the "TOME OF THE MUSCLEMANCER", not a magatama
I had an idea on why the first hero is so important. Smt 1 is the world where Stephen in crippled and that's when he seems to gain his powers. So that means the first hero is literally the catalyst for Stephen to guide messiahs
Maybe. You kinda mess with the program beforehand so who knows.
No matter what SMT1 is SO DAMN important. I love that
Nice
How incredibly fitting that the Hero is the one to strike the last blow... That looked hard as balls. Good job with that!
Your voice acting is so good man. Atlus NA should hire you.
I freaking wish
JohneAwesome level five should hire you for va for yokai watch.
JohneAwesome level five should hire you for va for yokai watch.
JohneAwesome Atlus should hire you for the SMT and Persona Creating
The moment I first heard of this DLC, maximum hype didn't come close to how hyped I was.
You know shit's about to get real when the cripple stands up...
verga The Cripple stands Up!!!!!
The best way to end this LP, finish Stephen with the Hero (Yes...). And congratulations, you got lucky Stephen didn't use Singularity Wave. Now let's just wait for the Switch game. 😁
yeah its a good thing I hit him every single turn and nobody missed
His elemental attacks can miss:
All of us
None of us
Or, one of us
No one, holy allowed
Everybody gangsta until Stephen starts standing
The "not reason not to" LP comes to an end.
Really loved it Johne, looking forward to the next one
The only flaw in your voice acting is that you said 'Yahweh' instead of playing a record scratch sfx. Flawless otherwise!
Actually(did you know) it can be pronounced yod heh vav hej
Now I want an SMTQ
Pls no
There is a fan fic of SMT Q in "Archive of our own", tho it's incomplete
@@tun1412 really? Link?
Yes
@@Vitor20XX absolutely
I've been waiting for this
Akihiko senpai? Is that you?
*GASP*
Akihiko senpai is in Trouble
woof woof
Kazuya - SMT1
Aleph - SMT2
Naoki - SMT3
Flynn - SMT4
Nanashi - smt 4 apocalypse
I like how the devs made SMT 1 hero's best attribute speed. it's like someone went back to SMT 1 and figured out "damn, he really was built for speed" but I guess maybe Nocturne is the reason they know, I dunno
Funny I got to the Diamond Realm in SMT 1 today for the first time and then I see this
"It ain't over till the cripple stands up!"
*The cripple stands up
"Shit."
After this DLC I want a SMT 1 and 2 remake even more for 3DS or Switch even More! Granted that could happen as Atlus said that SMT's 25th anniversary will be 2 games one on the Switch which is obviously SMT V and a 3DS which I think is probably eather tied into this new game on the Switch or a Remake of the Original
Angels actually fight aleph in the main game?
But everyone demons, angels and humans was pissed off by yhvh even in law route
See you in shin megami tesei switch
Hopeful
yeah...
Ethan West ...
Yeah about that...
this just gets better with time doesnt it
johne do u think we will ever see a Nocturne Playthrough
i'd like to see that
*_Your wish has been granted._*
*your wish has been granted even more*
11:52 Did the text just go off screen?
You ready your weapon and face the group of d
So Kazuya deals the final blow, im glad my first smt game was smt 1 in my super nintendo
Knew it.
Smt1 came out on the Snes traduced? I thought it didn't
I wonder if Stephen is stronger than Demi-Fiend in DDS1... Both are hard as hell
Demi is way harder
Demifiend is still to this day the hardest boss to fight.
Smt players hate status affects. So does the demi-fiend.
In fairness, the demi-fiend probably wouldn't be nearly as hard if you could come at him with the 5 messiahs.
The issue with that is Demi-Fiend is one of the 5 messiahs
Nice touch that on the buff/debuff screen, the only messiah with his face shown is flynn, due to you not knowing the others.
Speaking german, I nearly fell off my chair when you tried to say Freikugel (german word, literally it would mean "free bullet", reference to a german opera called "Der Freischütz") I do not mean to be offensive, it was just funny
I imagine i butchered it pretty bad gotta try again in a future project
I thought Freikugel is a Nuclear attack--Never mind. Nuclear only exists in Devil Survivor and Persona 5.

I thought Freikugel is a Nuclear attack--Never mind. Nuclear only exists in Devil Survivor and Persona 5.
In the Japanese version that skill could be translated as "supreme magic bullet". Nocturne's localization team then changed it into Freikugel because ... reasons. It's a pretty good localization, I think, since the protagonist got the "bullet" from the devil for 'free', and it hits pretty hard.
Im gonna miss this game so much :'(
Naoki has his gold eyes, so this is his end-of-cycle self?
He even said lucifer killed him during their battle, so duh
Edit: I got smt characters mixed up
@@odvdoihavetofillthisin594 *lucifer
Pretty much my favorite dlc.
One really cool thing to note about Steven:
In his first appearance, the the way he sits in his wheelchair is off balance, and very typical of the posture one has if they have Lou Gehrig’s disease. However, every subsequent depiction of him shows him with his legs crossed, but if you pay close attention you can see that he’s sitting up with perfect posture, something fairly difficult to do if you are unable to move your legs due to disease. It had been staring us in the face for several games that he was CHOOSING to sit, but was never unable to stand.
Smt 1,2,3,4 heroes have Been show in this Episode Granted by The Blessing Of Atlus They made that quest and this video amazing.
i can't believe this. that's what i subbed to you for, and i'm so happy i followed this walkthrough to the end. thank you, john.
can't wait to see your future projects.
This was such a fun series to help get me through the daily grind. I cannot begin to express how blessed I am, not only that I can still work in these current times but also that I have series like this to distract from the miasma. Thank you for always being in such high spirits in all your videos, old and new. Sorry for comment spamming these last few days, I'll give you a break from me by playing this game myself when I get the chance! Here's to my first SMT game!
Johne SMT walkthroughts are great. His enthusiasm is contagious lol
Also I would recommend you starting with SMT IV before you touch this one so you can familiarize with previous characters and the lore.
Satan is level 120, I guess I'll find out when I start playing this game
You get to play as the other protagonists in that fight (which are level 125) and Kazuya actually has MP and special attacks, cool
Wind is called Force, I always saw Force as a concentration of neutral magical energy, wait, that actually makes sense because Wind could sort of be seen as a neutral based element
It'd be cool if the other protagonists could be actual party members but then again it wouldn't make sense on a narrative perspective
Am I the only one who got a hype af flashback to Gehrman getting out of his chair?
I got scared when he got out of his wheel chair
Doi's Demi-Fiend is kinda' ugly, not gonna' lie. His Aleph and Futsuo look fine though.
He looks as angry as he is going to punch your teeth off, which is fitting
Dude, I like your esports self commentary in this video. I'm not joking or being sarcastic, I'm serious. It's awesome!
thank you, gotta try something to make turn based games entertaining
Amazing. I've been so hyped to see how you handled him and I got to say it was totally worth it! Great job man!
I love this dlc quest.
The Stephen fight was pure fanservice
It's other way around, it was fanservice for Stephen xd
44:24 Stephen's Exceptional Poem:
My job here is done.
Your unfinished tasks has come.
Adieu, O Strong One.
I'm sad to see the end of this series 😢 I've been watching this while beating the original SMT4. Good stuff man.
Mann it sucks that this is over now the SMT games are always a blast to watch you play you did a great job though dude nice work
Johne, you should've put "Apocalypse" instead of "Final" in the thumbnail. :P
iswydt
Demi Fiend being the badass haha.
why do every boss that is in a chair always be unbelievable powerful as hell.
Looks a birth by sleep final mix 😭
man I shutter to think what Igor would do to a protagonist if he gets out of his chair 😨
Absolutely nothing.P1 and 2 cast already fought either philemon or his equal nyarly.Igor,who's philemons bitch,would get pimp slapped by either group(3-5 is another story).
I mean this boss functions like the final boss but it's easier in my opinion cuz your second part is really good
I just wish Tamaki Uchida appears in #FE 2nd. Tamaki is the protagonist of SMT if, and also cameos in the PS1 era Persona games.
I just noticed
Who's the "prime Minister" Demi-Fiend mentioned?
Johne would make a great esports host
39:20 "Now is the point where I'll be using Gideon Bullet NOT to increase the amount of weaknesses that he has but simply to give him... more weaknesses"
What you mean?
I dont even know I was just freaking out at that point
Well, you weren't alone buddy. Love your vids BTW
Is this a straight single attempt or do you have multiple attempts?
multiple attempts but I dont show them because the recording would be like 12 hours long
JohneAwesome doesn't it take it out of you to do commentary for so many lost hours?
Thank you for do the series I crazy for Persona 5
AAAAAHHH I WANTED TO PLAY THIS PART SO BAD BUT I KEPT GETTING DISTRACTED... IT'S OUR BOI DEMI FIEND
21:10 you open the door and see that your final boss is Mr. Rogers.
it would be nice if we can have the other messiahs as party members just like how we can recruit dante in nocturne.
@30:00
... THIS IF FUCKING RIDICULOUS! The music is all kinds of awesome, though. Yay.
Huh, that's Shin Megami Tensei, I guess. Note to self: DO NOT play *any* SMT game on the harder difficulties.
Johne just out of curiosity are you looking into perhaps making a play through of Nocturne? (Or any other previous Smt game for that matter...)
I plan to one day but not right now
I wish there was a REAL Demon Summoning Program...
You'd regret that wish.
Nazarothil Not really. I'd like to meet, fuse and fight demons.
CRASHjester you would doom anyone who doesnt have one
Nah, I wish that them magatama were real.
Gain freaking Freikugel+ concentrate combo.
as if it was that easy to control if it were real C: in the game only a handful could
I love how OP Flynn and Nanashi are. Futsuo and Aleph can't use magic and Demi-Fiend is bad at using magic!
Just a question out of pure curiosity sense I am new to the channel. What is your opinion on SMT: Strange Journey if you have played it? Also you are an amazing LPer, great job on the series and I look forward to catching up on your other projects.
I enjoyed the game while playing it and look back fondly on it but dont consider it for a playthrough
I understand where your coming from. Thanks!
36:15 The way you pronounce "Freikugel" is certainly interesting. Lmfao, as a nativ german this definitely brought tears to my eyes.
you think thats funny I used to call Debilitate Deliberate for like 4 years
JohneAwesome Yeah, but "Freikugel" is an actual german word. Moreso it's a composition between frei(=free) and kugel(=sphere). There's no fault in pronouncing it wrong, altough it sounds extremely funny to a native german speaker.
Do you still pronounce "Antichthon" "Anti-tick-ton"
sukujawa?
You da bae. Been so excited for this
sorry to keep you waiting
JohneAwesome no no no I know you've a busy schedule. Thanks so much!!! You know it gets real when Stephen stands up XD
Tell me what's your next project! Is it the last few episodes of YW2 or YW3, or your secret Atlus project!
+CosmicStarlightEX plan to have the Altus project along side yk stuff
I'm gonna miss this series
this is more fanservice than the memphisto dlc
now i wish stephen actually stand up in real life
What makes the SMT1 protag so special? Is he the last one to be found because he's the first protag or does he has some sort of better connection to Stephen compared to the rest?
just the first protag and first to acquire the demon summoning program
i expected a deeper response lmao
He dies in a cave-in.
Well.. technically Spephen in fact did know him better then rest of protagonist.
TheRezro True, Naoki and Stephen never even met, Aleph was too busy with his mom and siblings to worry about a cripple he met in a video game. Flynn was more involved with Borrows and the Goddess. Nanashi with Dagna. Kazuya's only non-demon sponsor was Stephen and Tai Shang Lao Jun.
Demi-fiend's strongest attack, Freckacoojle.
I REALLY hope this was on purpose
Johne, have you thought about maybe a let's play of Nioh on your channel in the future?
Did he ever played something similar to Dark Souls?
TheRezro He played Bloodbourne.
Final13ful Well, ok.
hey johne, when was the first time you played a SMT game?
Nocturne
Goodbye SMT. Cant wait for the next on the switch.
Just a little longer
universe bending fight
Another great Atlus playthrough Johne, looking forward to the inevitably loooooong P5 playthrough soon.
I just got the game, wanted to ask is this the type of playthrough i can use as a guide and walkthrough?
it sure is its entertainment and a walkthrough :)
Cool also is this a neutral playthrough? As well ,as do you show how you stay leveled? and what demons to pick etc? Thanks sorry for being all extra.
first playthrough is peace ending but anarchy ending is shown and while I dont show grinding on screen most demon fusions if not all are covered in depth
ok thanks
+JohneAwesome excellent, this is soooooo epic. All the messiahs fell?, as a fan of the saga this quest answers many questions bringing the other histories, would u said that stephen is more difficult than Elizabeth?, I really enjoy your videos showing very good games. keep it up man you're doing and awesome job.
YHVH decided to play a little game of timefuckery and alter events to where the messiahs died from certain events they originally lived through due to them becoming absolute threats to him. Which means that while Demifiend did originally beat Lucifer, YHVH went back in time, amped Lucifer's power and thus Demifiend loses against him and dies. Which would have retconned both his fight in DDS1, his possible involvement in YHVH being split in Strange Journey, and his arrival in SMT: Imagine from the actual storyline
it's definitely and excellent explanation, wich leads to the DDS universe and how Demifiend involves in that storyline. This saga in a subtle way connects the events of previous realities, it's mind blowing.
Just finished this battle...It was brutal...
Stephen Hawkin did not die. He just move to the other universe....
Do you think he found the messiah of our earth?
nice video title pun
cuz in japan this game was smt4 Final
Were there other times YHVH wasnt censored?
Past SMT Main Characters Starred here
This was in my birthday
En. NO ozuno, zenki, goki, the kongokai? Just like SMT 1 SO NOSTALGIC :)
So Stephen isn't paralyzed?
Hooker Legs Guess he really stored some energy for almost 25 years lol
@@zadalmelik011 lmao Focus for that many years
smt q looks crazy
I hope they make one
Sir, may i know... the font name in the thumbnail pls
Australian Flying Corps Stencil (sorry for taking a month to replay)
Still amazed seeing people playing MT games on the hardest difficulty when myself I usually go for normal difficulty and still get dunked on. I did a good chunk of SMT 4 Apocalypse on War until I went back to Conflict during Merka and Luci fight. I do like a good challenge for my skills but I can't see myself playing on the hardest difficulty unless I know that I'll get frustrated and either gave up or go grind but then it would feel not rewarding (I don't mind grinding when it's getting or farming an item.) It could also be due to having an obsession of always being a balanced character in RPG where my stats are around the same and me having all heavy damage magic skills (not counting Hama and Mudo skills) + Silent Prayer and Luster Candy. Sorry for my rant but again really amazed to see people playing on harder difficulty.
The thing I love about Megaten games is the fact that it lets you choose the stats allocation for each level. By no mean I don't want to disrespect you guys, but you should try to focus on a build instead of going balanced since thats what most JRPGs do (unless you get lucky and each level gives preference to a specific stat randomly).
@@seth7726 Nah don't worry, I know what you mean it's just not only I always go for a balanced character but it also feels weird for me when I have a stat that is overly busted because I can be like "Sure I deal a shit ton of damage but if I take one hit I die and/or I'm not fast enough but also it feels kinda like not having the volume to a specific level or that books are misplaced seeing something like (87, 58, 61, 42, 67) would irritate me, sure if it's done automatically (like in Strange JOurney) I have no problem but if it's me who choose where to put the stats I want to have my stats equal. Skills wise since I have most of the heavy damage magic skills (the 1 foe versions of them usually) it's in case I don't have a demon/persona or that the demon/persona who used that skill is KO thus I can avoid certains situations. But yeah this style of play isn't a good one if going for harder difficulties.
@@jordan20910 I can understand that feeling. I know it's stupidly risky to spend all your points into solely one stat and actually is unreliable in some cases (I hate how in buffmaister walkthroughts, he always spends all 5 points given per level into MAG and at endgame bosses is either miss 9/10 attacks or hit one massively strong spell).
What I'm trying to say is that it feels great to have a dedicated mage or physical attacker/gunner that will shine over your demons. This way you can focus on a physical or magical build that only your protagonist can work up to its maximum potential. For example, whenever I start this games I like to spend 3 on MAG and the rest is for AGI and LUCK. This way I won't be missing or unable to avoid while also having the benefits of getting a great damage output. At lvl 99 (5, 5, ~280, ,~100, ~100) my protag will have a MAG stat superior to most demons but without being broken + just the necessary speed to be actually not miss 90% of the attacks. It's all about being optimal; your main character is the only one capable of manipulating stats after all.
Hey JohneAwesome, are going to get Shin Megami Tensei V for Nintendo Switch?
yes I will :)
@@JohneAwesome Can't wait.
20:45 Stronger than demi-fiend in digital devil saga 1?
DDS demi fiend is a joke. Wanna know why? Cuz he isn't the actual demi fiend. Just his solar data. Less than a fraction of the actual demi fiend's power.
@@jackour8167 You really seem to be on the deffensive when talking about DDS Demi Fiend. But it's really solar data? Inside the asura simulation? Wouldn't it be the Amala Network's doing?
@@Fermin-hw5pd first, the game tells you it's a delusion, you weren't fighting the real demi fiend.
Second, dds 1 takes place in a digital world, a fake world. where every enemy you fight is fight fake, demi fiend included. By the end of the game you return to the real world.
Third, dds 1 came BEFORE true demon ending came to noucturn. Which is the only ending Naoki stays as the demi fiend. So it's not the actual demi fiend.
I mean yeah sure Naoki keeps his power in the freedom ending, but I highly doubt he would go aimlessly into other worlds, especially since he likes his life a human more than demon and only kept his power to protect his family and friends and make sure the conception never happens again.
So, it's a fake demi fiend.
