Any fans of Shin Megami Tensei and/or Persona?

Basically the title question. Any fans of SMT/Persona here?

I bought a couple of the 3ds games digitally when they were on sale last month. Never played them and the rpg world is not really my thing, but maybe one day…

I've been reading great things about them for ages but never actually played one. You don't have to play them in any specific order do you?

Hm. I think yeah, mostly because the games have easter eggs for each other. For Persona, people tend to just play whichever game is most current first then go back to the others like 3 and 4. Persona games' stories are self contained though.

Yeah, I am a fan.

I have played all the Persona games(except Persona 2 Innocent Sin).

I have played SMT3 Nocturne and would love to play SMT5 but I am not interested in getting a Switch. Money is tight and if I buy another system it has to be able to play DVD/Blu rays.

I love the Digital Devil Saga games.

I have played both Devil Summoner Raidou games.

I can't wait to play Soul Hackers 2.

Awesome, man!

Which is your fave game?

Both Digital Devil Saga games since they are basically part 1 and part 2 of one game. I love the skill system in those games though I do agree that they made it a little grind heavy. I also like the characters, combat system, and setting. I really wish we got a third one or at least HD remasters of the first two together as one set...with some quality of life improvements and additional content. If I have any major complaints about the games it is I really don't like the 2nd demon form the main character gets in the final dungeon in the second game.

I hope Soul hackers 2 sells well and opens of the gate for more sequels to older games and more spin off games.

I've only played a bit of Persona 5 Strikers but I found it enjoyable
