Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga

Part 66




Update 12


First things first. Cielo and Roland get on the party.



Gale and Argilla get to be in the backburner, with Mutual Karma activated so they don't lose any experience. Useful thing, that.




Unfortunately, neither Roland nor Cielo have passive mana restoring skills at the moment. That should be fixed.
That being said, Cielo can pretty much rock with that null ailment thing. His weakness has been voided.



"But, I like you all. And, Sera cares about us too...
And dat can't be fake. We gotta follow de love, ja?"




That ought to be useful. Especially since two of the current party members cannot regenerate mana.


Well, I would say that since he overwrote himself with the Atma virus, he should be relatively trustworthy.
He ain't a drunk anymore, though.


Oh no! Treachery! (Viddler)
Who could've foreseen this turn of events? (Youtube)

Maybe next time I should actually record it with a width of 720, instead of 640. But then it kind of looks stretched.






Oh no! Mister nerd is calling someone with his cellphone, who could it be?




Why, it is no one else than everyone's favorite fully functional hermaphrodite!

She did, and Sera did. They were just virtual representations of themselves in the first game.
The Embryon was just a simulation.




Hir epiphany is quite similar to what Dr. Gregory House would have.

We will be seeing a couple more of those later.
And it may or may not have been god, but something else we have seen already as well.






She pulls out a revolver.

Not pictured on screenshots: The single bullet it has.




Treachery on more than one level.





And Angel has something up hir sleeve.

"It might allow them to live, but what good is life inside a giant cage?"






"How's dat work, anyway?"



"They're either unhappy with the status quo, or unable to maintain it."
The problem is that demonic transformation for everyone would ALSO be quite unsustainable. It would pretty much become the world Chiaki envsioned oon Nocturne



He hasn't fallen inside of a well, he can certainly wait.



"I sent a few men inside after our informant contacted us.
If I can get ahold of them, we should be able to get more information."




"God won't show mercy to those who sit back and do nothing...
That big black ball in the sky is no God of mine!"





It is both!

"I never thought I'd get to see the sun again in my lifetime."




"If that happens, it's a lot easier for them to drain your MP.
We'd be in trouble if you died, so I wanted to tell you about that."




"If that happens, you're super vulnerable to death spells.
We'd be in trouble if you died, so I wanted to tell you about that."

Roland and Cielo come pre-equipped with pretty damn good bullets.




Roland gets to use the Protection against Ice ring.



This one will come in handy relatively soon. Especially if I decide to be absolutely cheap and use Charge. Yes.







Heeey, isn't this a locale on the last Indiana Jones movie?



How convenient.

Roland's demonic form is very, very awesome. Appropriate to what he is supposed to be.

That being said, it's going to be quite a while until I wil lget to change their mantras. So better stock up on the MP restoratives, I guess.

Cielo's got a LOT of the Mantra Grid mastered. The rest are expensive.

Roland's got less. He was pretty neglected in the previous playthrough. Kind of similar to Cielo on DDS1, really.


So, most of the mantra grid exploration is going to happen through Roland.
