Been wanting to get into Shin Megami Tensei.(Definetly not regular Megami Tensei I saw videos about it how much a chore it is) Is the first snes game a good place to start? Or you have only played Jack Bros and V? lol
Yes and no. It being an SNES game means there's a bit of clunkiness and it's cryptic sometimes. It's fine to start with, just be aware of that + fan translations are a bit buggy with buying guns in the SNES version, known issue. The GBA version has some extra content, just be aware the music is a trash fire on that version. There's supposed to be a patch but it's currently MIA and I think it's still in the making. Alternatively to that, there's the PS1 remake. This version from what I know is mostly the same aside from graphical and music differences. Lacks the extras from GBA though.
And no I have not just played V and Jack Bros, if that blurb wasn't enough. I've played quite a lot of them at different points. Kyuuyaku Megami Tensei, SMT I, SMT II, SMT if, Majin Tensei, Majin Tensei II: Spiral Nemesis, Last Bible III, Soul Hackers (3DS), Persona, Persona 2: Innocent Sin, Persona 3 FES, Persona 4 Golden, Digital Devil Saga, SMT: Nocturne HD, SMT: Strange Journey, SMT Strange Journey Redux, Devil Survivor Overclocked, Tokyo Mirage Sessions (working on it since I've had that one on my Switch for years), SMT IV, SMT V, SMT V: Vengeance, Jack Bros, SMT Synchronicity (which was an obscure spinoff on PC made solely to promote Strange Journey Redux, fun game, go check it out since it's abandonware), SMT Dx2 (that's the mobile game, it's fiiiiine), Persona 5 Strikers (back when Persona 5 was PS exclusive but the sequel wasn't for who the fuck knows), DemiKids (I forgot which, but I burned out immediately before I even got to play the game lmao), and everything else is stuff I haven't played or can't play (looking at you Persona 2 Tsumi and Batsu)
Must point out that I played these games, finished none. I am incredibly slow with actually beating games when there is an obstacle.
