First time playing SMT proper, honestly not even past the tutorial yet, but I don't think this is going to get explained in the game.

So a Nahobino is clearly like a Rebis, fucker even has a dual hairstyle, but what the fuck does "Nahobino" mean?

Here’s hoping I can still work Wrath Tempest into my Luck build later on. At +3 it’s not quite enough damage though I still would like a non-ailment dependent AoE attack. Got Mad Gasser’s essence and definitely want to upgrade Syphon to Great Curse Syphon but I’m not sure if I should save it for a more Poison focused endgame build since it also comes with Blight, Toxic Cloud, and Poison Adept.

I’d imagine it would look something like
>Toxic Spray +9
>Poison Cloud+9
>Wrath Tempest+9
>Poison Adept
>Poison Master
>Resistance passive
>Great Curse Syphon
>High Phys Pleroma/Murderous Glee

>>
>>483230741
It's kind of odd. What's said is that Marduk basically set up a bad example, from taking the throne for the first time and becoming a ruler, so other gods and humans imitated him (and on top of that set a curse stopping snake gods from using the throne). However, he is never said to have created the throne itself, so, yeah, it all seems to be actually set up by the Mandala System. Obviously someone would take the throne at some point and he just happened to be the first one.

It is mentioned since his intro that he can control demons, but yeah, the way they talk you'd think they mean just random fodder. They should have had shown him taking over a big time demon before that. Although it's possible they added those lines about him controlling demons ONCE they decided they had to reuse the Tiamat battle, which is why beforehand it's just words (and most if not all of them not even voiced) rather than a real demonstration.

Devil Survivor also have lines when the demons acknowledge they're still themselves after fusion, but

Like

>So thy desire is to increase the power of Thor? I see... I shall leave it to thee...

but IV and V clearly go with fusion being more like you're sacrificing the demons to summon an unrelated to one. Story relevant demons in IV often have lines referencing the story when they're summoned. In VV, when you get a demon to "utmost trust" and fuse them, the new demon has a relationship reset, but if you then go and summon back the fusion component, it will already have the bond maxed and you won't get that again.

Doesn’t Koshimizu literally say that he’ll trust your judgement and act as his brother would? The dude’s got nothing left, the world being destroyed and remade at this point isn’t really an issue since Tokyo seems to always be built no matter what, it’ll eventually come back, along with him. Yoko’s final solution is not even far off from his myriad gods ending in CoC.

It's kind of funny considering the pre-release interviews saying that Base V was too law focused, but this time it'd be Chaos focused. I guess they did talk about "chaos" in the sense of a darker narrative with twists, and that part is true, but they also mentioned Chaos in relation to the in-game alignment and that ends up shafted in the end.

>>
>>483237805
There was an interview where they claimed they purposefully left out certain elements from V's story, since they didn't need the focus. But now this they'd give players a look into various of those elements.

Looking at the actual game though, I'm pretty sure that's bullshit. The new snake/bull lore even contradicts the original script (Atum was mentioned as a former king in base V, while according to VV he went to the through, but couldn't claim it due to Marduk's curse).
>>
>>483237805
>>483238203
On the other hand, some of the new content does fill plotholes from the original, like whole Crest of Ra stuff. Amum Ra had the throne but got beaten by a bunch of Sumerian gods and had his power stolen by them in the form of the Ra crest, which is why just obtaining the Ra crest would make demons able to participate in the race for the throne. It's an actual Nahobino power from before YHVH's condemnation.

Zelda had collectibles since the 100 Gold Skulltulas in Ocarina of Time (which wasn't even open world). The towers to unlock part of the map is more of an open world things, I guess, although the abscesses don't even have the map interference anymore in VV.

>It is just Far Cry 2 but Vfags will deny that because the zones are separated by loading zones
It's not just that they're separated by loading zones, even within a single zone in V you often need to find the one path to advance through the ruins rather than the locations being actually open and with various of access. An actual open world design would be very different from V/VV's maps.

Nigger you CANNOT possibly be saying that V has the same kind of world map as SAN ANDREAS, you have to be pretending to be retarded at this point. The Da’at’s are separated and linear, V isn’t open world. The closest that V comes to open world is Taito, and even then I’d say that doesn’t count. You can do some of the gyms in Pokemon Red out of order, and I wouldn’t call that game open world.
>>

They probably wanted to give Tao her own section since Yoko had one in the 1st area of da'at and they were together in the 2nd and 3rd area

Breath of the Wild didn’t invent collectibles, but I’ve always assumed that the Miman are based on Koroks since they’re both weird little collectible dudes that you give to a bigger weird dude in exchange for rewards.

I think V’s map design is also influenced by BotW’s emphasis on vertical exploration.

This is tinfoil-ey, but I also kind of suspect that Aogami was supposed to recover his memories by finding his essences but they changed it to just the one memory at Tokyo tower because they didn’t want to take too many ideas from BotW.

Does V have way more reliance on switching out demons than other games? Like it feels like every boss fight I'm switching my demons either because I ran out of MP and MP items or because one got killed (on hard).

>>483244717
I think it does. Attacks and spells cost more MP so you’re more likely to run out during battle, and it’s a lot easier to recruit demons in V, so the obvious solution is to have a deep roster of demons that you can rotate through.

There’s also a general shift from resource management in the field to resource management in boss battles. Most encounters are optional, and most of your exp is going to come from quests rather than regular encounters. It’s also easy now to keep your HP and MP high in the overworld, and MP mostly becomes an issue in boss fights.

People said the same thing about Apoc Satan or Odin, which are still being used to this day. There's no real reason to ever go back to Kaneko Lilith as Doi Lilith isn't a redraw of something from a different artist(Like IV Merkabah) and her design isn't restricted in a way that only makes sense in Vengeance's story. So she can be easily used in future entries and spinoffs.

This is not the first time Lilith has been replaced with new art, and I'm sure it wont be the last time.
Anyone that complains about it now only because Doi did it is a retarded faggot nigger and all twitter screencap posters deserve death.

But Doi Odin has only been reused in V and VV, and Doi Satan in VV. Kaneko Satan was in Soul Hackers 2 a couple years ago. I think we’ll see a mix of designs going forward, which has generally been the norm for SMT and its spin offs.

>>483246776
That’s assuming they modelled Doi Satan two years ago and would be ok with it debuting as DLC instead of it being a superboss in Vengeancd. Doi’s mainline designs replace their older equivalents, it’s only Persona where they haven’t adopted any Doi designs at all

Agreed, sorta. The way that myths can be twisted and mixed is already something so prominent in real life, and there's some really interesting concepts that they end up finding. That whole jewish tengu stuff is insane, but makes SMT stand out a ton compared to all these other mythology heavy series.
>>
I could take both kaneko lilith and doi lilith
>>
>>483248504
Thinking on it, especially given Atlus' tweets about SMT5 being a "series", it really dispels the illusion that these are simply products for getting the most out of an HD release and not passion projects to "fix" what the director thought was wrong. I think about how Catherine was really the only real departure that Atlus has had from MegaTen since they went HD, which is coincidentally when they were still owned by Index. The issue is that Sega/Atlus is definitely trying to squeeze more blood out of the rock than it's going to give. Just slapping some more onto a property like a "Persona 5" or now "SMT5" is easier than creating a new game and creates value by reusing assets and easy marketability by reusing characters that people are already familiar with.

People figured out who she was from the first time they saw her. Using features associated with a religion but putting a basic mocking twist is a pretty straight forward way to show a demonic side. A feature already used to show Mastema's association with the demons. It isn't a competition, both do a good job. I understand you are mentally ill Vesk but you can just say you aren't fond of his style instead of making up problems.

"Association with demons" is not "becoming the demons". Mastema's shiftiness is shown in multiple ways, but his angel wings denote he is an angel.

>It isn't a competition, both do a good job.
If you remove them from Doilith the design language is still the same. If you remove them from Mastema you hurt the overall image.

I don't believe you genuinely have a problem with the wings. Complaints about Doi lost their way once they went from this element is wrong, to nonsense arguments about this part didn't need to be included. Cause you kept the attitude of trying to prove him wrong and that he lead smt astray.

>I don't know why you hyperfixated on the wings
Cause I explained the rest, this is part of why I don't think you're genuine. You've noticed the difference in Doi and Kaneko's style is more details, so have made it a mission to tell everyone details bad. No matter if they are serving a purpose. Its made to give the impression of her clay body falling apart and warping. That's a perfectly fine reference to make and a good way to show she wasn't always this demonic figure. Visual story telling is a good thing. There's not any actual problem with this design element outside detail bad Kaneko would never. When simple and complex designs are perfectly fine. The complaint use to be Doi included incorrect or incongruous elements. You've not been able to let go of this complaint so it must be wrong when his designs have so much going on.

>Your sole example is an angel.
Who is a bit of a wrong'un. But again here you are incapable of engaging with the idea this design element is meant to characterise. An Abrahamic figure has appropriate imagery but warped to denote an evil status. There is nothing inherently wrong there.

I'm sure there's some difficulty involved, I won't deny that, but it's clear these retards call dibs on things and just sit on them. Gideon did it with if for ages, CJs doing it with Devil Summoner. Tom and whoever else he works with pumps out translations like crazy compared to them because they actually care and aren't in it to get notoriety. Even the G-MODE games are getting translations by what I think is literally a one man team, and they're actually coming out.

>Ad motivism again
zzz

>No matter if they are serving a purpose. Its made to give the impression of her clay body falling apart and warping.
>But again here you are incapable of engaging with the idea this design element is meant to characterise
YOU are incapable of understanding that just because Doi intends one thing, it does not mean it is effective at doing so or a good idea. "It's meant to look like clay falling out" doesn't really matter when it looks like she was attacked by an ice cream scoop instead. "It's meant to represent her becoming a demon" doesn't mean it's actually good at representing that. And "angel wings represent demonic nature" doesn't work when they represent that something is an angel.

>The complaint used to be
Doi's design language has been criticized for being shoddy for years, just look at Zeus. "He was seen as good but we see him as bad, so he's half good half bad" is not a thoughtful or interesting way of looking at myth.

Doi Zeus is good. You might think the two-faced design is too much but I think it's fitting. Zeus is literally famous for sometimes being a dickhead. More than any god in mythology Zeus deserves this two faced depiction. Also the silhouette is really strong. Couple that with his 3d animations and delinquent attitude and you have one of the most unique and memorable demons in the franchise.
>>
>>483263094
have you ever read a MTL doujin before? even the most resent ones suck ass and are so badly translated but those are porn that usually have a simple plot, imaging translating a megaten game, it would be impossible to undertand.
>>
>>483263291
Yeah I'm gonna assume your motivation cause you're unreasonable. You can dislike something such as the holes, but playing dumb saying they make no sense he'd add them to any demon just shows you were never giving it a chance. You're still refusing to engage with the idea of how demonic aspects can be shown as inversions of holy ones. That's not weird or controversial in the slightest but your stuck repeating but how could something angelic be used to represent something demonic. Despite the series having an example of just that. Not liking what he tried to represent is fine but that's just a matter of opinion. This is very much different than Zeus referencing Kamen Rider W which has no Greek relation. But Like I said you're purposefully unreasonable cause you need to hold on to the same old complaint. So I don't think this reasonable idea came through well is held as an equal complaint to this incongruous element has no place. I don't agree with >>483264531 but I can at least respect an attempt to be reasonable even if it is forced.

Basically I'm just replying to show how the Kaneko vs Doi debate has largely broken down.

Implementation and skill issue. You were never supposed to copy paste the MTL results 1:1 as the final text.
What you ARE supposed to do, is doing 3-5 different MTL engines, translating the source text 3-5 times and then evaluate the consese of all translations in proper english sentences.
This works. Very well, actaully. And it doesn't take nearly as much time, as properly translating it word for word.
If I knew how to modify old Sega Saturn games I would fully translate the game in proper english in less than a week.
>>
>>483263257
It just takes a while sometimes, and implementation and editing require a lot of hands depending on the project. The EPP translation was a bit rough, but they're open source iirc, so it should be easy to edit it up. CJ's group got CCC off the ground, and that game is a mountain of text and hacking.
Right now, Tom is in a bind with some translations since he's still waiting on the original hackers to come back. Nothing he can really do there, even if he has the whole translation done. It would be really unfair to pin those 2 projects on him, since it's out of his hands. One of them, I think, he still is waiting to get more text from. If anyone feels like it's going too slow, just offer to help.
t. worked with Tom before

True Neutral is still the best ending for SMT V.

Also why doesn't Mastema do anything in the Vengeance Law route if he doesn't want you breaking the Mandala cycle? Does Tao not break the cycle and why does she suddenly advocate for Mandala in Vengeance Chaos when in Creation she still guides you to the throne regardless?. Does she not know Lucifer is there to break it?

You can feel how you do, bruv, all good. Some people can be annoying even if they do their work well. I just don't think the holding thing is real (except for Gideon), and felt like someone could say the same thing about Tom and start shit. They've worked together before, and they were okay, probably just hacker trouble. Speaking of, I have heard on the grapevine that one of theirs lives in Ukraine, slowing down things for a while. Complicated, since it's not one group, but several that CJ just organizes for at times, so I have no clue who is on the Devil Summoner project.

>>483267245
In my experience it's the exact opposite, specifically for demons that talk in all katakana cause machine translation often gets confused by that. You can understand it way better yourself.

Anyway I don't mean to say machine translation isn't useful, but it's no replacement. There is an effort that must be made translating things that have context spanning over a lot of text, and either some fan translator does it or you yourself.

>>483264531
>Zeus is literally famous for sometimes being a dickhead.
This isn't unique to Zeus, nor does it represent him well. Unless you think Enlil should have a similar design because he caused a flood, or Amaterasu should because she was known for cursing and killing emperors. It's low effort whether you're using the motif for Zeus or for the Christian god. It is not the role of gods to solely dole out good things, and designing them in such a surface level manner is indicative of a lack of familiarity with myth and how religions function in general.

>>483264859
>You can dislike something such as the holes, but playing dumb saying they make no sense he'd add them to any demon just shows you were never giving it a chance.
I accept he meant the holes to mean one thing, they just don't execute it in an effective or meaningful way.

>You're still refusing to engage with the idea of how demonic aspects can be shown as inversions of holy ones. That's not weird or controversial in the slightest but your stuck repeating but how could something angelic be used to represent something demonic. Despite the series having an example of just that.
Your ONE example doesn't match the actual scenario Lilith is in. The idea you could slap black angel wings onto anything to say "they're becoming demonic" is laughably stupid.

>This is very much different than Zeus referencing Kamen Rider W which has no Greek relation
No, you're just focusing on the similarity with another design to ignore what the design is actually saying. Ironically you're ignoring Lilith has no relation to angels while claiming making her angelic is a good way of showing she's demonic. "Abrahamic" religions did not slap wings on everything, and invoking an unrelated class of beings does not make for fitting imagery.

>Basically I'm just replying to show how the Kaneko vs Doi debate has largely broken down.
It's "broken down" because you throw out argumentum ad motivism at the drop of a hat, you chode.

Translating the novels needs you to know a lot more cultural things that I don't know, I am not at the level of proficiency to comfortably translate things in any context and be sure it accurately represents the original text and neither do I have the proper knowledge to translate literature in any language.

It is sad, but Fatlus would rather make stuff over they already have designs for than to make new demons overall. Mainly since most of the new stuff looks like pokemon.

True, but they would have to remake most of the designs, and Fatlus is lazy. Most Kaneko demons are using modified PS2 models which aren't bad, but shows how much they care about not remaking anything even when they could use Dx2's models.

She's extremely mentally ill, I know she had that hentai google docs thing too where she posted an image of her own butt in it randomly at the end. But outside of that I don't know of anything else she may have hidden. Every month they go on a mentally charged tangent and do something stupid. But for a while they have been grasping at straws to "keep on scanning" even when it's hurting them while doing it for free by rescanning scanned demons they already scanned. It's a shitshow all around.

Obviously, nothing is going to happen.

The only people who know that you downloaded scans is Google and they don't care (literally, every single fucking year, someone uploads pokemon roms to google drive to /vp/ like 1 week early and even nintendo could do fucking nothing except take down the link).

Just avoid talking to people on the internet who are known to be crazy, especially on social media. You download your stuff and go. There's actually a lot of crazy people in the upload scene, especially on private sites so the number one rule is to never engage - get your stuff and go (unless you are saying thanks or something)

No. Just make a new account to get around it in case they post a post with new scans or something, before Elon has another meltdown and decides to charge money for new twitter accounts.

Also don't apologise to random people, just delete any posts that you think are relevant. Because they don't know who you are unless you tell them who you are and being blocked is normal, but there are certain people out there who will take that a lot further than others.

Finally, sometimes people will randomly block others all the time. Like one time I put art in a public list of good artists, didn't otherwise interact at all and the artist blocked me. So don't think too hard about such things.

Anyone have the most recent confirmation on how to fuse Lucifer?

I saw this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/Megaten/comments/1dms1ad/i_unlocked_lucifer_early_vengence/

So far what I've done is:
1. First playthrough on CoV Law- defeated Satan to unlock Godborn, defeated Lucifer on level 99 form
2. Planning on starting NG+ CoC True Neutral playthrough- when/how do I fuse Lucifer in NG+?

I beat the game on a first playthrough, made a clear save, reloaded my pre-clear save to fight Satan and unlock Godborn, and then when I beat the game and started NG+ on Godborn I unlocked the ability to fuse Lucifer when I went to the World of Shadows.
>>
>>483283808
Oh is Lucifer only available for fusion on Godborn?

What is the Law option after Khonsu? I got sent to neutral even though I thought I made Law choices.
>>
>>483284737
You're talking about the Creation side-quest? Initially you gain law points for killing him, but in the 2nd battle with Khonsu Ra for some reason you gain law points for sparing him, at least in the original game.

If it's Vengeance I don't see why you're worried since that's still tons of alignment choices afterwards.
>>
>>483284656
I didn't get the prompt to fuse him when I did a Reborn NG+, so I guess so?
>>
>the pop up that tells me my choice determines the story comes up after the choice
what the fuck is this shit
which was I supposed to do? what even is the difference
>>
>>483285454
No Vengeance.

To answer my own question, trusting Khonsu is Chaos. Interestingly Yoko says they're a lot like humans to each answer. So the Law option of don't trust pushes her to have less faith in humanity.
>>
>>483277084
They’d usually only go after people who saved, posted, or solicited for them to be posted, and that last category they probably wouldn’t go after in a case like this, so you’re probably fine. However, all the people saying nothing will come of this are in denial. Maybe nothing will happen, but there’s a non zero chance people get in deep shit for this. A lot of it comes down to the behavior of LE in whatever specific jurisdictions are involved, and that’s very hard to predict.
>>
>>483286038
the decision between trust demons or no isnt law and chaos
apparently its chaos and neutral
trusting demons is chaotic, and not trusting them aint quite law (which fits, this is yakumo's answer imo)
>>
Is the CoV chaos route as bad as people have been saying? I’m about to face off against the Qadistu in Shinjuku, and I think I’m too deep into chaos to change.
>>
>>483286956
By route people mean the last couple of hours. A few bosses and cutscenes. Chaos is obviously pretty repurposed and you have to dig around to justify some bits. Law getting a new original designed boss, and Chaos getting Mastema is also pretty sad. Especially with one big missed opportunity. But its fine, I still find it more interesting than the original game's endings. A lot of SMT games don't have much original content for the routes at all so its more middling than anything.

I like the ending itself cause it feels like a real attempt to address the problems chaos rather than a sneaky and I'll be the one to rise from he ashes.
>>
>>483286956
its the fact that after the whole of shinjuku, yoko fucks off the story during taito and the final dungeon, only showing up after your way deep in empyrean
could have made for a more interesting route split if you actually got to play with panagia yoko doing quests (maybe even justifying why the bosses with the keys were changed) and you could even have a proper showdown with dazai having a trashtalk battle with yoko
i guess they saw the difficulty when they killed aogami: it meant koshimizu (ironically the chaos rep in another route) wouldnt see eye to eye with yoko's plans
>>
>>483287593
>>483286956
Law has a better boss fight. Although the boss music for the chaos route boss is one of the better tracks in the game, so it has that going for it. Story will be a matter of taste. Personally I found the law ending to be silly and unrealistic, and it crumbles into pieces the moment you introduce free will into the mix. I prefer the chaos ending story wise.
>>
>>483286956
Law has a better bossfight and Chaos Yoko doesn't have finished animations.

>>483288121
Hopelessly ideal fits Tao pretty well. It might just suck, but so does every other system. Might at least try to make everyone's lives better if suffering is coming regardless. SMT endings are nearly always flawed (or should be) but here I think they did a good job at constructing both sides of the argument. There's times we should press on positively regardless, and times to tear it all down. They're reasonable, in a wacky extremist way.
>>
>>483288121
The ending avoids touching on it, but obviously the Nahobino and Tao have to be manipulating people. No way the Yoko in the ending has all her memories.

Oh yeah, just like last time. Still, if Doi managed to redraw Medusa, why not do Minotaur as well?

How do you guys feel about Mastema being featured so prominently in Vengeance? I like him and all it just feels weird to have a main character from a different game show up with a major role again. It would be like if Krishna had a major role in Vengeance despite being the main antagonist of the previous game. It seemed to me only Lucifer could get away with this.

You can't remove the rigged system. It's a part of the throne, as mentioned in Mastemat's quest lines, by Samael. There's a literal curse placed on it by the original bull god, that ensures it's always there. The only way to get rid of it, is to reset the entire thing, and hope for the best.

You can remove the rigged system. Lucifer's entire suicide plan is about that. The Satan quest also confirms it works, since otherwise it'd be limited to Chaos Vengeance, but any ending where you beat Lucifer is acknowledged as having broken Mandala in another world.

Yoko ending, probably? True Neutral might fit too if world without demons means they became elements of nature again.

I'd say Creation Chaos ending too, but looking back I'm not sure it actually restores the gods to their Nahobino forms. It's not explicitly mentioned by the narration. Dagda in SMTVV says, upon learning about the knowledge system and Nahobinos in this world, that obtaining his knowledge could work as an alternative to free himself from observation and gain true freedom. So, if the gods are actually Nahobinos (who are explicitly free from observation, there's even a npc that comments on it. The Nahobinos could shape themselves according to their will, while usual demons are shaped by external observation) in the Chaos ending then he'd probably be fine with it too.

The curse is pretty meaningless without mandala. It meant only horned gods, considered Marduk's successors, could take the throne. The demons of Bethel Egypt talk about it too.

The whole point of ending the Mandala System is that there shouldn't be a battle for the throne again and your world will remain stable, rather than heading to ruin and then rebirth under someone else.

It might remain stable, but under an eternal tyrant basically, and the oppressed will remain oppressed forever, since the curse is still there, and now they don't even have a means to challenge it. My thinking here based on the dialogue in the game is, that basically the curse needs to alter the world in various ways to ensure the rule remains within the lineage, it doesn't just simply happen. It manifests in various ways to its inhabitants. So, just because the world is out of the cycle, doesn't mean the curse is not in effect, and won't alter the world in the same way it did before. This time it just doesn't lead to ruin.

Nah, it's an actual lock to the throne. The Egyptian Bethel members talk about how Atum won a battle for the throne but when he attempted to take it he was blocked by the curse, since he was considered a Snake God, so his successor Amum Ra, who was a horned god, took the throne in his place.

What you're thinking about is that the Qadistu and Yoko believe a central God is a bad example that's instinctively followed by others, both gods and mortals, leading to oppression in various levels, but that doesn't seem to be part of the curse itself.

We don't know. Presumably someone who would be chosen by Yoko, so she might not have chosen someone yet, since the way Vengeance frames things it seems like Tao personally chooses to go with the mc.

>>483311463
No, YHVH presumably sealed her exactly because he didn't want someone else creating a new world and was trying to keep his world going in spite of the Mandala System.

She led him in the previous cycle, but now the Mandala System would force a new ruler, so it could never be him again and he'd have to lose and fall alongside his world.

The Goddesses of Creation aren't supposed to choose anyone. Yoko was sealed because she maintained her independence and personality. What happened to Tao in CoC is what is supposed to happen to the Goddesses of Creation.

The problem is freed is not used here to confirm it is gone forever. You can free a country from a totalitarianism, but that doesn't mean it can't creep back. Mandala being some weird metaphysical system and very much still existing as thing else where. Really does not confirm it was eradicated.

People have taken this scene much further than what is clearly stated. Satan is just going you beat the game good jorb. The only new information here is confirming the system in general has a wider reach where it still exists.

It didn't really need to be cause the same points as true neutral applies. Tao doesn't really do anything extra that scrubs it clean. Basically nothing was made more clear by Satan, uncertainty is an intentional part of the endings. At most Satan is adding more uncertain elements.
>>
>>483313495

Well that is what the game says. It is very much part of the narrative and you wouldn't insert that if it didn't mean anything. You can have a different interpretation but what Satan says is not a clear definitive statement on it being gone forever. Something the game does make on other topics. When it wants uncertainty it purposefully only gives you so much info.

Something doesn't really add up with what you're saying though.

You get more of an expostion from Lucifer in True Neutral, but the actual events aren't changing. In all endings he gives the speech about using his knowledge to break free of the Mandala System. Now in VV you can even face Black Lucifer outside of True Neutral.

It basically is though.

>Lucifer says that this will be free the world from the Mandala System

>Satan in VV declares the world has been free from the clutches of the Mandala System.


No one at any point in the game talks about the Mandala system crawling back or anything like that. It's just you bringing that up here. What's said in game is clear, they got rid of the Mandala System in their world. The ending narration tries to raise doubts, questioning whether existence is even possible outside of Mandala, but now Satan's words confirms that world has been freed.

No, Aogami specifically says that the will be everlasting due to the knowledge that Lucifer shared. The other parts you're talking about are just a description of the world the mc envisioned there, it's not why it's breaking free from Mandala.

So when does the Alignment lock happen. Currently in Taito, need to get the 3 keys. Icon is moving left and right in Tokyo map

>No one at any point in the game talks about the Mandala system crawling back or anything like that. It's just you bringing that up here.
>The ending narration tries to raise doubts,
Come on now. You're admitting it does get questioned. Satan does not confirm anything new. All he says is yes you did one of the endings. This whole thing is focusing so hard on one way to understand freed, and then shuffling off it being insignificant in the face of the system as certainly not a sign of anything.

Alignment lock is after the Metatron battle in the Empyrean for Creation and at the end of the area after the Empyrean in Vengeance.

maybe? all the additions in that mod are modular but theres a minimap mod and 60fps mod that are also available. Those two are pretty cool.

The narration goes

>Can a world exist outside of Mandala?

Santa goes

>That world has been freed from Mandala

So, yes, it is outright answering that question. The original Neutral ending never talked about breaking mandala throughout the multiverse. Like I said, only the new Chaos and Law endings even go on about that for some reason, although they're debunked by Satan's words there.

Does free mean can't come back, or does free mean not currently present? Please point to where this is directly clarified

>The original Neutral ending never talked about breaking mandala throughout the multiverse
Remove gods and demons and there is nothing to combine with knowledge. No more Nahobinos, no more cycle. At the point of denying what the ending was agreed upon to do for years just seems dumb.

As glad as I am for Aogami to come back. I miss the new normal battle theme. Shits the best track any mods or way to make be the standard normal battle theme when I play in NG+/Godborn? I wiped out enemies way to quickly to hear it

If I use it, then beat him again, will I get another essence?
