Hey guys it's Marsh. So, I'm convinced Digital Devil Story: Megami Tensei for the Famicom is actually brainwashing software disguised as a video game. I've been grinding for like 2 days straight, OK!? Just to get strong enough to fight the boss in this section. Now, the game's in a foreign language, alright I'm
tired, I feel like I've been drugged, ass pounded and, left in a dirty bathroom in Shanghai. This little puke colored room is just going to be burned into my mind forever.
Here's the deal, there's this Rag shop here right, you know this little
bastard Rag, you know him. He takes your gems and you can get items. Now, this is a little known Megami Tensei lore fact, but Rag is a
lazy piece of shit,
because you can literally take TWO STEPS OUTSIDE HIS SHOP, AND THERE'S THIS GIANT PILE OF GEMS,
and this little nub just keeps taking them. This game might as well be a medieval peasant mining simulator, because 60% of the time I'm just grabbing rocks and shoving them up Rag's ass for more health items. This room is perfect for grinding, like you do some battles, you grab a crystal, you trade it to Rag for some health, rinse. And repeat. Except I've been rinsing and repeating for like
8 hours and my hands are about to fall off! I swear, this game has permanently changed the chemicals in my brain, like I've been mentally reprogrammed to think auto-battling the same demons for hours on end is fun. I've become like a Japanese sleeper agent, by the time I'm done if I ever see gems again, say I'm walking, down the street in real life and I see a jewelry store, I'm just going to ape the fuck out and start climbing on the walls. Listen you don't want to be in this situation, I don't know why I keep going. It's like, do I hate myself? Am I trying to prove something? Or deep down, do I secretly like all this? I don't know man, I just don't know anymore ok.
Anyway that being said, pretty fun game, I think you should give it a try. Thanks for watching and see you all next time!
