(Hey, question. Nocturne is an amazing game, right? I just bought it but I don't know until I play a game if it's good or not. Want an opinion of it, and since you are a Hitoshura account, I thought you might know a lot about it. I know Lucifer's Call/Maniax Edition was better due to the Labyrinth of Amala, and fighting Metraton and Satan. Or was it Lucifer? Eh, never the less, I want an opinion from you about SMT III, if you may.)
[SMT II and Strange Journey are my favorite, but SMT III is a really good game. Probably one of the best ‘combat based’ JRPGs on the PS2. The music is phenomenal, and the graphics translate the art style better than SMT IV by a large margin. It also does a better job of introducing a player to SMT than the original games or even IV does(which is funny given they were trying to make IV more ‘approachable.’ You fight both Satan and Lucifer. Different guys. Maniax is ‘better’ in that it has more content, but the game is already lengthy as it is, and there’s no point if you can’t read Japanese.]
