Game Overs in the SMT series are much more intricate than most games and are often a key mechanic or plot point so I wanted to put them together alongside a few bonus games that are technically not SMT but are still in the same spirit. It's fascinating to see how it evolved over the years, the SMT2 game over theme returning, how Charon is a consistent character except for some games where the stakes are much bigger than just crossing over the river Styx. SMT4 seemed to have started the trend of reviving you for a fee but Kyuuyaku Megami Tensei had it (don't know if Megami Tensei 1 or 2 on the Famicom did) and "SMT If..." revived you free of charge.

If it seems I linger on too long in a game over screen, it's because I find the music interesting to listen fully. The PS1 version of SMT2 has a spooky arrangement that I find fascinating for example. You can just skip if you feel it's too long. That's why I put timestamps in place.

Please don't judge me about my gameplay because the goal was obviously to die as quickly as possible. I've played and finished most of these games already. If I ever feel like it I'd like to do the same for Persona.

The footage was all taken by me at 1440p and overall the highest quality I could make. You're free to use the footage as long as you credit me.
