Woke up in the forest, success!! Hello Stephen, boy am I glad to see you! I was so happy I did that little “Hell yeah!” pose Flynn does every time he finishes a delivery quest. Woke up in the forest and… eThis time I chose to preserve the world. Finally when the White Ones questioned me after Infernal Tokyo, I chose to destroy the world. After Shene Duque I figured I was way over on the Law side, so I just found a GameFAQs thread with all the answers after the Camp Ichigaya events and picked all chaos choices. Tl dr Law was repulsive and Chaos was stupid, which left only the Neutral route worth pursuing.

What exactly is his problem? It’s like he just exists because someone somewhere has to be the counterpart to Jonathan and the Law route, but just like Ronaldo in Devil Survivor 2 he doesn’t appear to believe a word he’s saying. As it is Walter isn’t making any sense at all. Then if someone starts blathering about only the strong survive I get it. IMO half of the 15 hours spent chasing the Black Samurai in Tokyo should have been devoted to traveling around the Eastern Kingdom of Mikado and seeing just how hard people had it. Luxuror, or what exactly was so terrible about Walter’s upbringing as the son of a fisherman, so all that whining about “You don’t know what it’s like to be a Casualry” just left me scratching my head. IMO the game didn’t adequately establish what was so bad about being Casualry vs. Part of it is probably due to Walter’s going on and on about how only the strong should make a world when he himself is so weak and stupid he would be wiped out in an instant in such a world. Every Chaos route in every SMT game I’ve played (not many I admit) has been quite nonsensical, and Shin Megami Tensei IV was no exception. Quick, time to do a 360! And so it was that I was forced to be a complete duck’s bottom to everyone for the rest of the game if I didn’t want to end up with the nutcases.Īt the same time I didn’t want to go so far to the other side that I ended up on the Chaos route. It wasn’t till after the event Shene Duque that I realized I was in trouble.

Sure it was pretty obvious that Ashura-kai’s red pills were made from people all along (thanks to Soylent Green, everything in fiction is made of people), but I never expected that I was siding with them by trying to be a nice person. Unfortunately the stories in these SMT games are so juvenile, always trying so hard to be “edgy” and “against the grain” that being an honest fellow and not wantonly murdering people somehow makes you side with brain-sucking gangsters and dictatorial angels instead of just making you a normal human being. For most of the game I just chose options that seemed right to me and generally tried to be a decent sort of guy. Whee! I’m on the neutral route! I’m so happy~! I didn’t think I’d make it because I only started using a FAQ when it was almost too late.
