This LP makes me wish someone was doing an SMT: Nocturne one as well.

Happy birthday to you! Luisfe has LP'd a ton of the SMT series, including DDS1 and 2. Spoilers regarding those, obviously.

I'm looking forward to someone else taking a crack at DDS. It's a really interesting game!

The only problem I have is that the DDS1 LP has a lot of missing images...

Ah, that's unfortunate. The LP's from years ago, so I guess I'm not surprised that some files were lost.

In demon form, Gale's head also splits like a bishop's mitre (although I believe it's rotated 90 degrees from the hat).

I really like Cielo's demon design. It's stands out among the other members of the party a bit, and the plane aesthetic is pretty cool in general.

I just really like how upbeat Cielo is. It's just really refreshing when the rest of the world is so gloomy.

Gale and Cielo are my favorite characters of the Embryon, I'm pretty sure. Between goofy heroics and mysterious visions and badassery, they have a lot going for them.

I think Roland's demon-mouth is the top of his helmet-head, unless I'm mistaken. The design is very cool, and it's nice to have a little bit of fresh blood.

Edit: maybe it's just in the regular place. I can't tell.

Roland's been introduced, so here's a good illustration of him and his demon form.

Gale may have lied to Fred, but I think he had his best interests in mind, i.e. he wants Fred to actually grow up as a child, not a child trying to be an adult.

Well, I think that much obvious, but the fact that he's even capable of taking that sort of thing into account is pretty shocking on its own. Coming from Mr. "I do not comprehend".

I think being born anew did a remarkable job of broadening Gale's horizons.

That extended level up sound for Serph was hilarious.

Also Original Serph was a total jackhole and deserved what he got.

This may be a dumb question, but did original!Serph turn into an actual demon (Real Varna), or just a metaphorical one before he was killed?

I believe he turned into a real-deal Demon from the uncontrolled data surge.

This is a pretty intense series of events for any game, let alone a JRPG. I think that's what I love about SMT games. I've been playing 4 lately and I'm totally hooked. Also, since the limit of my knowledge was the end of DDS1 I'm throwing out a random guess that Gale is modeled after God. Because why the gently caress not at this point. Either that or Angel somehow? Who else did Sera even know?

I recall that Gale kept having visions of Jenna Angel during DDS1, so I'll assume that he's someone related to her, probably put into the simulation later? It's not as if Cielo was in the lab scenes either.

Well we're going to HAARP which means we're probably on the west coast.

I spoiler it because I don't think they've mentioned it by name yet, and they definitely didn't just steal the name because the facility itself looks pretty much accurate.

I think they mention the facility name once during the cutscene showing God getting mad and starting the data consumption.

I think what irks me the most about Cielo's death is that he's used awesome laser beams before while flying around. I want to believe that he didn't need to kill himself here just to succeed. God, that's just heartbreaking.

Because Schroedinger sounds like Serph, and is effectively the other halves of the two.

Though they were too lazy to mirror their hair, which would have been cool and made more sense.

Well, it was kind of mirrored in the reveal of Schroedinger's true identity.
