SMT Digital Devil Saga 1 playthrough part 9 PCSX2

Climbing the tower to try to reach Nirvana.
Even with me editing out the normal gameplay portions of the journey up the tower, the journey is LONG and gruelling. You can tell that the developers put a lot of thought in constructing the final dungeon for the "Disc 1" portion of this game.

I know I already beat this game 2 decades ago but after coming back after all this time makes me feel like I'm exploring the tower for the first time.
My brain was firing on all cylinders when I was trying to navigate this labyrinth of a tower.

Of course, I had to stop the recording just before I confront the final boss.

I still have A LOT of things to do, like going back down to find and defeat all the hidden bosses as well as mastering all of the Mantras.

You can also face off against the main character of SMT Nocturne on your second playthrough of this game.

Not sure if I have yet recovered from the trauma I had when I faced the Demi Fiend years ago... I definitely don't remember winning since all I can remember was that I got party wiped, A LOT.

Final episode for the "Disc 1" portion of this game will be on the next Thursday again as usual.
