SMT thread

Do people actually like this bitch? I just finished this game for the first time.

>whines like a faggot about the mission since day 1
>constantly fucks up. Tries to bumrush Horkos
>Volunteered himself to spy on an enemy base. Will insist on doing it even if you volunteer to do it yourself
>Couldn’t keep his faggot ass Pokeyman on a leash. It runs into a laboratory, and then he rushes in by himself and gets compromised and caught.
>after getting experimented on like a bitch, he thinks hes hot shit now and better than you after becoming a demon

Honestly, I used to be a Chaos chad before this. But this guy has got to be one of the worst characters ever. I resigned myself to God and got brainwashed

following your desires and wants despite the needs of others is the true chaos way, complaining baout others is what a lawcel does

He's supposed to represent the hasty, violent, "survival-at-any-costs" side of humans. You can hate him all you want but I think most people would be more like him than Zelenin if you threw them into the Schwarzwald and told them to go fuck themselves

Based. "Chaos chads" are all just edgy 15 year olds anyways.

I don’t like him, but I can’t say that he’s all bad especially when Zelein’s God COCK COMPLEX is a thing. I’m a neutral fag tho so being agreeable to both parties shows your their good sides.

Jonathan and Walter are unironically the best Law/Chaos heroes we got. It blows my mind how many smt fags prefer the older, uninteresting and underdevelpoed protags.

>are unironically the best Law/Chaos heroes we got
>they both get thoroughly brainwashed by their bosses and nothing remains of their old personalities by the end of the game
Yeah, amazing characters.
At least both Jimenez and Zelenin just got warped and redux can even fix this.

Yeah, I hate this fucking loser and he's one of the main reasons I hated SJ.

Jimenez is Ok. Zelenin is completly uninteresting.

I usually go chaos because it appeals to my Andrew inner edgelord and the Chaos's heros are usually total bros but Jimenez a such an annoying cunt that I went neutral instead.

Law and Chaos "heroes" are no better than the demons they bend over for. Neutral is always the correct path. And fuck the White, too.

>'interesting development' is randomly flip flopping between being the law/chaos rep and being neutralfags
yeah no

Zelenin is worse. Her whole thing is thinking that because someone is a lawfag and uses flattery that they're not using you for unspeakably cruel things.

And like OP said, Jimmy was the one who betrayed Jack's squad not the other way around.

>nothing remains of their old personalities by the end of the game
You know that's not true for Walter.

Yes it is, becoming Lucifer's jerk off hand does not mean his personality is there. Lucifer just uses his visage to try and manipulate you

>walter is a developed character
whole game he talks about equality then turns out he means everyone is equal under the grave also johathan is such a bitch that i wouldn't support him even if he was right
fuck the neutral bias of the newer games too

Based and humanitypilled

Jimineze and Zelenin are the extremists of their own alignment until you hit them in new endings.
See how Zelenin said to Asura that she wants a world of order.
>I resigned myself to God and got brainwashed
>over a worst character
Lmao

>fuck the neutral bias of the newer games too
This, also a note.
In SMT I, it already explained that neutrality has the flaws like costs more bloodshed, the newer games didn't even tried that.
They just make it as the "good ending".

Neutral only works in a real post apocalyptic setting. Like say Strange Journey forking the world over to law or chaos feels like selling out the human race even after the game keeps telling you that people are rioting blah blah pollution blah blah Kira on the loose in Tokyo. I'd say 4 is pretty bad about it too, the word is far far far far from perfect but when your options are "kill everyone because I said so boyo" it's hard not to just take the peoples side.

In 3 the world is already dead and and 1 and 2 peoples lives are arguably in such a shit state that anything would be better than wallowing misery. So picking Law or Chaos feels more viable.

Unbelievably based

just because they occasionally have funny dialogue like with Mastema or when they get brainwashed and start acting like cats, doesn't mean they're remotely good characters
their very sudden random shift into "MUH WORLD OF STR" etc was terrible

In my opinion the best alignment rep in the series is Chiaki from Nocturne who starts out by talking a lot of sense while adhering to her ideals, and then as soon as Gozzu Tennoh starts whispering in her ear, you see power slowly corrupt her from inside.

Honestly the rep with the most reasonable motivation, he got fucked by both sides beforehand. In the beginning he gets shanked by some shitter demon, and after that he gets brainwashed against his own will. When he goes "fuck all y'all", you have to agree with him.

>Chiaki's emotionless and cold mentality forming and conflicting with the manikins
>Isamu's greed and ego being exaggerated and conflicting with Hijiri
>Yuko's observant position and weakness conflicting with herself
>Hikawa being unchanging and determined because he planned everything from the start
>Demi-fiend gets 2 endings that ignore all of them and just fuck everything up
Nocturne had the most kino alignments

ALL alignment reps are hypocrites
How are you people still not getting that
The idea is to show you the alignment's flaws
They even literally take you to post-alignment worlds in SMT4 to physically show your dumb asses how bad things get if you're not a neutralchad and you still don't get it
rrrrrrrrrrrRRREEEEEEEEEEEE

>>need to spend the whole game balancing chaos and law choices to get neutral
>umm actually they're both bad and we don't need either lol
>fuck gods and demons oh except this one in particular
>our main guy transcends space and time and has magic powers but he's definitely not a demon i promise
>law wants to maintain the status quo but that's bad so let's turn the world back into the status quo that it was before the apocalypse

>tfw i don't like none of the routes in smt iv and the only reason i prefer law route is this line cracking me up

something really spoke to me about zelenin, I still went with neutral but I wish I could have kept her as my angel waifu.
I think it is the constant fear of man in her.
