I’ve been passingly interested in the Megami Tensei series for a while.
I’ve been a little intimidated by the number of games that may or may not have been translated and all the ports.
I was hoping someone could give me a rundown of the series and where to start, if I should play with fan translations, or whatever else I should know.
I grew up with the nes and snes, so I’m OK with older RPGs and their nuances.
I think Persona 4: Golden is a good entry point into the franchise.
Always felt like the Persona and SMT games were fairly different beasts despite the connection. The daily routine, (and thus time) being a part of Persona means you have to plan ahead a bit more then in SMT where the only decisions you might want to have a save before making are the good/neutral/evil path ones.
