Played this game almost 2 years ago at the height of my interest of Megaten. I didn't expect much from this game since it's essentially the first game of the franchise if you don't count the Digital Devil Story games. I would've expected to not like the game since it would be missing a lot of things I came to be used to since they wouldn't have been created by then but despite that, SMT 1 is actually a really great game. It's no wonder why this game blew up in Japan. I'm honestly surprised by how much I like the game
