Kato in Redux ZoeZoe (ゾイ, Zoi) is a German Medical Team doctor aboard the Red Sprite who has a lot of authority in terms of what goes on in the Sickbay. She tends to patients and has counseling sections available for the crew members. Zoe is frequently seen tending to Wolf or alongside Maebe. She is voiced by in Redux.Zoe has something of a dark side, exhibited when she laughs ominously after saying that taste better to demons or when she admits that she wants to experiment on Awake Jimenez and Judge Zelenin to sate her curiosity as a doctor. Her alignment is Neutral.
Willaims in Redux DentDent in Redux Main article:Dent (デント, Dento) is a member of the Red Sprite's Strike Team. One of the more cheerful members of the team who self-proclaims his popularity within the crew. Despite the questionable veracity of his claim, he does seem to be a social man especially because he is responsible for setting up meetings between the protagonist and the crewmen.NorrisNorris in Redux Main article:Norris (ノリス, Norisu) is a member of the Red Sprite's Strike Team and was one of the members sent out to patrol after their arrival. He has a stern face and a serious personality and appears early on with the protagonist only to be struck by a mysterious condition which affects his mental well-being.MaebeMaebe (メイビー, Meibī) is the Japanese Maintenance Officer in Red Sprite. She is one of the characters that the protagonist saves in the mission Missing Crewmen out in Sector Antlia. She is one of the recruits along with Chen. Maebe believes herself to be weak and indecisive, which is the topic of many of her conversations with the protagonist.
Maebe comments that she saw the protagonist like a knight in shining armor when he saved her. She's often seen at the Red Sprite's medical wards.When the revived returns to the Red Sprite, it will be revealed Maebe has an ailing father, and that should the events of the Neutral Path unfold, the cure for his affliction would be discovered in the future.
Alignment: Neutral. Tyler in Redux TerryTerry (テリー, Terī) is an American Operations Team. He is the first crew member to get caught into danger—saving him marks the player's first battle. He is one of the key players in keeping the ship's development and maintenance up, being responsible for restoring the ship's systems while they were damaged at the start of the game.
Even though he appears in almost every plane shift scene and then some, he is first seen without his full Demonica just before the protagonist leaves to investigate. Alignment: Neutral.
Voiced by Kentarou Tone. Terry in Redux ChenChen (チェン, Chen) is a Chinese Supply Team member.
She is the Materials Analyst and Engineering Assistant to Irving helping him develop for the ship. She explains technical concepts to the protagonist from forma to the Demonica. She seems to share some of Irving's enthusiasm when it comes to her work, especially demonstrated when she and Irving develop the Horkos Buster. Chen is however much more tame than Irving, often being the one to calm him down when he gets too excited over Forma and judging Captain Jack objectively and fairly unlike the rest of the Red Sprite who all have bad impressions of him.Curiously, according to herself, she is a new recruit even though the rest of the crew, excluding Maebe, are 'the best of the best' from countries all around the world. Alignment: Neutral. Mackie in Redux BlairBlair (ブレア, Burea) is an American Strike Team member.
He is a seasoned fighter who was a former mercenary until he got recruited to join the U.N. Expedition team.
He teaches the player about combat and the field if he is asked to.Blair seems to have more combat experience than anyone on the ship perhaps excluding the protagonist. At the very least, Blair has his weight in experience having dealt with the more ugly things in the world, 'tasting the bitterness of human strife with his own tongue'. Despite this, he considers Sector Antlia's basement to be rather off putting, commenting additionally that it 'looks like they dug through the past-it's like a World War', perhaps reminding him of the battlefields he fought in.He will remain available for conversation in the Red Sprite's exit hatch until the arrival at. Alignment: Neutral. Voiced by Ryouta Takeuchi.
Blair in Redux AnthonyAnthony in Redux Main article:Anthony (アンソニー, Ansonī) appears as an unnamed character, 'Strike Team,' in all of his appearances aside from those that concern his EX Missions where he is known as Anthony. He is rather calm and orderly as 'Strike Team' but casual as 'Anthony' suggesting that he knows how to shape up when it's needed but has a poor handle on the topic of love.MiaMia (ミア.) is a Japanese Maintenance crew. Mia first appears through, requesting the protagonist to deal with the entity appearing in the Red Sprite's toilets in the EX Mission, Lurker of the toilets.
After realizing Kanbari's grudges not only were somewhat legitimate but that respecting his wishes would indeed improve the atmosphere, she proposes the creation of a roll for cleaning the bathrooms.She does not make appearances quite frequently until late Sector Delphinus and onwards. In the Japanese version, her personality is more boyish, referring to herself with the pronoun (俺, Ore) and ending her sentences with (だぜ, da ze). Alignment: Neutral. Voiced by (Drama CD) and (Redux).
Mia in Redux WolfWolf (ウルフ, Urufu) is an American Strike Team member. Wolf is a scrawny soldier whose luck granted him the misfortune of being wounded at the very start of the Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey as a result of the initial crash of the Red Sprite.
He eventually recovers through the course of the story albeit subtly. Through many conversations, it is reiterated that he doesn't really think things through and he isn't as tough as he might like. Above all, his eagerness to jump into action is something to be admired and he claims that, at the very least, he can do better than any other crew member. Alignment: Neutral.
. Summary: When the black spot appeared in the Antarctic, mankind became nervous; when it began to spread, that anxiety turned to panic.

The Joint Project, convened to discuss how to deal with the expanding anomaly, decided to send in four ships carrying humanity's finest soldiers and most cutting-edge technology. The mission: to investigate what lay on the other side of what had been dubbed the Schwarzwelt and find out if there was a way to stop it from eventually covering the Earth. You are an elite soldier hand-picked for the Strike Team, outfitted with a Demonica environment suit and posted to the Red Sprite under Commander Gore. Upon entering the Schwarzwelt, the crew finds itself forced to deal with harsh conditions, supernatural interference, and throngs of demons populating the bewildering world.
What exactly is the Schwarzwelt? What awaits at the end of this strange journey? It is entirely in your hands to find out. Atlus USA Expand.
This game is really just an amazing ride. It's beautifully executed and wonderfully challenging. The demon negotiation system is at an This game is really just an amazing ride. It's beautifully executed and wonderfully challenging. The demon negotiation system is at an all-time high for the series, being both as complex and simple as it has to be.
Demon alignments play a large role in the gameplay, but don't limit you regardless of what path you take. The characters and story are splendid.
They'll make you seriously consider the situation and can change the way you view the world. Atlus' portrait of humanity's downfall, the stress of keeping calm during the mission, and how your crew mates slip away from themselves are a testament to what a video game can achieve. I think this game will serve as an amazing game-changer for people for years to come. It does not hold back in any respect, so players have to be prepared to bite back when picking up this gem. When Devil Survivor came out for DS I was excited.
One of my favorite games of all time has got to be SMT 3:Nocturne. Most of the series spin When Devil Survivor came out for DS I was excited. One of my favorite games of all time has got to be SMT 3:Nocturne. Most of the series spin offs have all been stellar too. Gotta love the Persona series especially.
But Devil Survivor while it wasn't bad, seemed somewhat lazily slapped together and subpar. What I thought Devil Survivor was going to be when I first saw images emerge on the net, Strange Journey fulfills. This is the closest thing to SMT 3 that we have in the States (unless you emulate a fanmade rom with a translation patch which is illegal). Forget about Pokemon, this is the series that started the true 'catch 'em all' franchise back on the NES and it is far cooler and darker than it's kiddie competitor. I wouldn't recommend this for kids though, as it does have some language and dark themes/imagery. Not for the squeamish or those that are easily offended religion wise.
But if you basically want an adult pokemon on steroids, get this game, NOW! The graphics are great, the story and writing is wonderful and the soundtrack is just plain phenomenal.
Seriously, the music is epic for a DS game. I will say that I almost marked this game down to a 9 due to the fact that it doesn't have any online or wifi battles with your friends, period. But it does have an interesting demon transfer system via pass codes like some older games used to have. The nostalgia factor regained the lost point for me. Next time though I hope they implement an online battle system.
