@Thread_Critic_PhD @redtruth @wes what yall saying
i went Vengeance for my first route
i heard things about its story being better but really I just wanted to experience what Atlus considered to be the "completed" SMT5
I played this on switch already. Is it just replaying the game and then playing the new route after?
Or are there changes to the base game storylines and stuff like that?
Deciding if I wanna cop

the canon of creation (OG) and canon of vengeance (SMT5V) are different routes that diverge quite a bit from what ive heard (ive only seen CoV route) plus some extras and QoL stuff for both. Like recently, i found a rare sword that triggered a demon to approach and ask to save it in "another timeline" for me. so, i guess i'll have a new boss to fight if i start the CoC route

did more research and basically seems like I played CoC when the first game came out so I'd just play through vengeance route which has plenty of differences
copping on sale
absolute madness
Vengeance had one of the best soundtracks this year, nothin but Flames
absolute madness
Yuppp
Kozuka COOKED with SMT V's music. Honestly it's probably my favorite "sound" in gaming music. Maybe not my favorite overall soundtrack, but it's somethin else lol.
Finally playing Smt V and man im in love
im right before the demon tower snake boss but im already 6 hours in, just explorating and doing everything i can
As an smt diehard im so happy that i can finally play it, this franchise top 5 of all time for me
damn idek Artemis was over here at the Tokyo Diet Bldg
now she's too underleveled to keep in the party
it honestly never thought anyone was over at that location after the story took you thru there and it always looked near abandoned from the leyline screen
absolute madness
man i’d bang this so loud durning my initial playthrough i loooooveed the sound in this game
If you want to get the absolute full experience, I'd do Creation (the OG) and then Vengeance. The Vengeance route has a better story (though I'd say it's not anything particularly amazing or anything), so you can do that if you want a better experience without having to do another playthrough prior lol. If you're still wanting to play more, you can always just do Creation after.
There's some secret bosses tied to each route, so you'd have to run through both if you wanna fight them.
ng + situation or 2 bespoke playthroughs?

Believe it's NG+, since you get a key item in one playthrough and use it in the other.

Oh in that case, you can speed through the OG route lol
Tiamat...........i can get through the bufu phase no problem but after that i cant outpace the mediarama
edit: ah never mind lol tiamat wasnt hard at all. its tehom thats the problem
edit2: never mind tehom was just tanky. got her on my 4th try after i stopped trying to big brain strategize and played by instinct like i did with the other bosses

realized i missed my window to unlock Nuwa 
its funny bc i tried going back to the school a number of times after everything went down but kept getting turned away so i stopped going lol the time to check was after meeting a maidenless Yakumo but before ascending the tower apparently :cryfam:
