The very first Megami Tensei recreation, Digital Satan Story: Megami Tensei, lastly has a full translation, because of some intrepid followers. You may be saying, “nevertheless it already has one,” however this isn’t the one you’re considering of. That is the sport created in 1987 for Japanese dwelling computer systems by Telenet.

The Megami Tensei sequence is greatest referred to as a sequence of video games by Atlus, which might ultimately broaden to Shin Megami Tensei, which incorporates the Persona sequence. The sequence truly started being based mostly on a sequence of novels by Aya Nishitani earlier than going off in a completely totally different route.

However earlier than Atlus stepped in, Telenet was the primary developer to create a online game adaptation. This one was for the Japanese dwelling computer systems, and it was launched a scant few months earlier than Atlus launched the Famicom recreation that will begin their long-running sequence. Confusingly, each are known as Digital Satan Story: Megami Tensei. Whereas Atlus’ model was a first-person dungeon crawler, Telenet opted for extra of a top-down motion RPG. Although, it’s nonetheless a dungeon crawler, make no mistake.

Whereas Telenet’s tackle the sequence was vastly overshadowed by Atlus, it’s nonetheless a reasonably neat historic curiosity, if nothing else.

The English translation of the MSX model involves us from Kaisaan and different collaborators. You could find the patch right here at their GitHub.
