Title: Revelations: The Demon Slayer Post by: Matsudai Hibiki on September 10, 2007, 01:10:16 PM Has anyone on this board owned this game and beat it all the way through? I had only played it briefly years ago, semi-legally, mind you. I enjoyed it, but I never knew that it was a Megaten game until about two months ago.
@_@ Title: Re: Revelations: The Demon Slayer Post by: Emilio Morales on September 10, 2007, 04:00:02 PM Revelations: The Demon Slayer, that was a game of game boy? If thats so, I just have play it, but only a little, just the first part when you became a Demon Slayer and they gave your title, and I dont remeber that much either. I didn´t knew that was of Megaten, but when I see the type of battle and the contact system, I imediatelly knew it was of this awesome series.
Title: Re: Revelations: The Demon Slayer Post by: Matsudai Hibiki on September 10, 2007, 08:25:43 PM Yup, I do believe it was a Megaten spin off. I think it was called...Megaten Gaiden: Lost Bible or something like that...
Title: Re: Revelations: The Demon Slayer Post by: Emilio Morales on September 10, 2007, 09:20:52 PM That´s one of the things I like of Megaten games, they are everywere!! and if you see, they are for all types of audiences, like Devil Children, for small gamers, to Persona for mature gamers! (and all the other megaten titles).
And can you tell me please, who was the last boss on, Revelations: The Demon Slayer? Title: Re: Revelations: The Demon Slayer Post by: Matsudai Hibiki on September 10, 2007, 09:28:04 PM No idea. I never really got all that far in it. =/
I totally agree about the Megaten games in that respect! I just wish that: A: Atlus produced more of the Megaten games, so more people could play them. B: Release more Megaten games instead of keeping them Japan exclusive.

A lot of people skip all the NES and SNES games of Megaten, and the ones on the PSX and SATURN. So what we need is that all the Megaten games get localized! Title: Re: Revelations: The Demon Slayer Post by: rotkappchen on September 11, 2007, 09:08:24 AM Hello ! SPOILER HERE :
The last boss of Demon Slayer aka Last Bible is lucifer if I recall correctly: (http://shindds.free.fr/screens/last%20bible/Revelations%20-%20The%20Demon%20Slayer%20-%20GBC%20US/09.jpg) and the last boss of Last bible 2 is pretty interesting : (http://shindds.free.fr/covers/lastbible2/pix2/Megami%20Tensei%20Gaiden%20-%20Last%20Bible%20II%20(J)%20%5BC%5D%5B!%5D_31.png) It's like a primitiv version of YHVH, called Gaia, and at the end of the game he puts a curse on the hero, who will be touch for 2000 years, like the hero in SMT II. When we knew than Last Bible could have been placed 2000 years before SMT II (aka 20xx), it could be a very intersting story. My thought is that Last Bible take place in year zero, the begining of the megaten bible if you want. And the hero is put a curse on him for 2000 years. Then 2000 years later, it's SMTII and a new Messiah is born. Title: Re: Revelations: The Demon Slayer Post by: Emilio Morales on September 11, 2007, 09:52:02 AM Wow cool! so are you saying that Last Bible is where all begins? And what about those screen shots? Do you made them, you were playing the game or you just find the screen shots on the internet, if not, can you please tell me if that game is as the same difficult as the other megaten games. Thanks for posting those images!!
Title: Re: Revelations: The Demon Slayer Post by: rotkappchen on September 11, 2007, 12:12:47 PM I played and finished the 3 Last Bible Games. The screenshots are from my emulated gamethrough.
The first one is easily my favourite, because it's really attractive and not that hard. And for a gameboy RPG, it's very deep and interesting. And it was released in us so, it's nice :) ! The second one is a direct sequel to Demon Slayer, it's really pretty much the same gameplay and progression, the only thing that changes is the story, a more megatenism one, and it's only my interpretation but it really seems to be the beginning of the megaten world. The two last bible games for gameboy are not that hard and very short. Like 15 hours long if you don't mind to collect all the demons. The third Last bible for super famicom is very strange, it's one of my worst favourite megaten game with RONDE (on saturn). Strange monster design, uninspired musics, very very very short dungeons and annoying encountered rate, but the story is interresting and kind of dark and unique for that time. If you want some spoilers on the story, i can do it. Last Bible 3 seems to take place about 500 years later than the first two last bible games, but i hadn't see a precise dating for it. It's not a good game anyways. Title: Re: Revelations: The Demon Slayer Post by: Emilio Morales on September 11, 2007, 01:34:40 PM Give me all the spoilers you want, I don´t care! I just want to know more about the Last Bible games, since are the games that I don´t have play that much as other Megaten titles. Thanks!!
Title: Re: Revelations: The Demon Slayer Post by: rotkappchen on September 11, 2007, 05:01:19 PM Ok here are Last Bible 3 Spoilers.
If I recall correctly, you play a guy named Shell, just the hero guy lambda. The main character of the game is a dark one, named Arek. You see him in the opening video of the game, he's dying and enter in hell or in the demon world. Then you play Shell and his team mates in a steampunk country where energy becaomes unlimited. So there is pollution, high technology based on a classic fantasy story, planes and lots of police districts surrounding the cities. During your trip through the storyline, the guy you saw during the introduction (Arek) is planning to become the king of hell. So basically, he made himself the king of all demons. The game is a very classic rpg during the first part of the story, but eventually all your team mates will die one after another, just like in FFIV or DDS2. Then it's time to Shell, the guy you play, to die and then to wake up in an outstanding realm, the Luciferium. You now play in the deadworld, basically, you're in the makai or in hell, where you will hear about Arek leading the demon's kingdom. So you can recruite your old team mates but in this new world you could make team with lucifer and other powerfuls demons. Then you kill Arek and you return in your world with the livings -> happy ending. But it was one of the first RPG, i think, to be very tragic with your complete team diying and then a great plot twist where you fight with de dead. I don't know if i was very understanding, i'm french so english is not my first language and I played Last Bible 3 long time ago. A great story but a terrible gameplay and game. Title: Re: Revelations: The Demon Slayer Post by: Emilio Morales on September 11, 2007, 08:03:04 PM Wow, cool thanks! If you look well in the Megaten saga, the most of the endings (not all), are unhappy endings. A cool trait of Megaten games indeed.

Title: Re: Revelations: The Demon Slayer Post by: KaitoYamada on April 11, 2008, 12:52:07 PM Sorry to renew an old thread, but is their a translation for Last Bible 2 or 3? I've looked around the net, and haven't found anything. :crying:
Title: Re: Revelations: The Demon Slayer Post by: Tapio on April 12, 2008, 06:07:35 AM I don't think unfortunately...
The only Megami Tensei which have been translated by fans are: _Shin Megami Tensei (SFC) _Shin Megami Tensei II (SFC) _Another Bible (GB) If you know others, please tell me.

Well, there are english translation scripts available for both SMT:If... and P2:IS. Don't let the japanese scare you away from playing the rest of the series, most of them are quite easy to play without japanese knowledge, as far as JRPG's go. |
