Shin Megami Tensei is one of the most storied RPG franchises in history, with quite literally dozens of spinoffs across the last three decades, including the likes of the beloved Persona games. In that glut of games, it’s inevitable that some things will be lost in the shuffle — and there may not be a single SMT game more overlooked than Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs the Soulless Army.
Despite the ridiculously long name, Raidou stands apart from the rest of the series because of its historical-drama fueled story that takes place in Taisho-era Japan, as well as a unique action combat system. But equally, the actual character of Raidou is a crucial part of what made the game different as well, as a more “defined” silent protagonist.
