If someone wondering how big is the Megami Tensei universe (the series as a whole), this picture below probably the closest I can get. There are other pictures too but I guess this one is the one that have connection between the games.
May contain spoiler
Imo what I like from this series (especially on the main line series) compared to the other JRPG games is that the mythology portrayal, the mature themes and the battle of “Law vs Chaos” is that great and doesn’t shy away from source material. I couldn’t explained it myself but it is just something different than your average JRPG.
Read at your own risk
Literally in one of the mainline game, you have to battle YHVH
Oh and Megami Tensei almost always has banger OST if you all never played them.
Catherine is in the smt universe too ?!
I thought this game was about going to school and dating.
It is. Then you go into the dungeon crawler side of the game and some psychopath is making deals with elder gods.
Also the Persona subseries is lighter and has more mass market appeal. Most of the other games put you into an apocalypse within the first hour.
Interesting. I saw Catherine on that chart, but not Jack Bros…
the persona kids are pretty much beating up Lucifer too. There’s no sunshine and rainbows there either
Funnily the Persona series deals topic that is closer to our day to day live (i.e Persona 3, Persona 4) compared to mainline/other megaten spin off series.
As grim as it gets...
In Persona 2 you have to battle against Nyarlathotep disguised as Fuhrer.
I consider myself averagely informed in games in general, and yet I have absolutely no idea what the Persona series is all about. I need to find the time to research a bit out of curiosity, I promised myself that.
