I'm replaying DeSu, doing the other routes one by one, and I've been wondering about how things play out if you let everyone die. Primarily how the Belial fight gets skipped (or so I heard), does the death clock, just, disappear before the fight?

Anyways, my idea was:

-quickly pick Yuzu route and 8th day on a "good" playthrough for another route, just to see how it looks when everyone lives, including the "protect Tokyo" sidequest

-reload save, do whatever other route I was doing

-as my final route, if I still feel like it, do a "jerkass route" where I let everyone die and do Yuzu ending

However, I know that you need Gin to do that sidequest. I guess I'll see the details once I do it on a "good" Yuzu route, but, if I want 100% completion on a single save, then I'll need to keep him alive? Or would I also need Haru alive, in case Gin gets sad and won't help? Or, most likely, I guess I'll just say "screw it" and resist the urge to see a 100% number on a save, if I did all I needed to over multiple saves. (Lucifer can't be that bad, right? Right?)

Also, right now I'm doing Atsuro's, I am way past the choice of letting Haru die, and will need to keep her alive for Amane and Gin's routes. So, Yuzu is the only I could let her die in now.

Alternatively, if there's a let's play, walkthrough or video that could satisfy my deranged needs to see these characters suffer, that would solve this problem easily. Or if someone tells me if Gin dying actually has any impact on the characters for more than 1 day. If not and it's just like two lines in the evening, I'll keep him alive on the "jerkass" run too.

Edit: Oh shit, I only now realised there's a message skip option, why didn't I see this? This should make replays faster, I haven't played in a while so this time I'm listening to dialogue tho

I've made it through the whole modern Persona series (besides dancing games) and the whole 3DS library. Also Nocturne and SH2.

I don't play to play the really obscure games like Majin Tensei or Demikids, but something like SMT1,2 or Devil Summoner (is that one translated?) sounds like something I'd still play. So, I'm barely halfway there, and these games were my main focus for a few years now.

I wish I had the dedication to do that

Not sold on Yukari's, but besides that they sound good. Shinjiro's and Ken's didn't do many roles before but I think it's safe to trust the voice director at Atlus West.

For a start I guess I'll just share the EOU manga, which is being translated by aariachang24. You can submit fanart or memes (I don't know if you can do that via mangadex though, so here's the Reddit post). https://www.reddit.com/r/EtrianOdyssey/comments/13jo6ax/etrian_untold_manga_guy_here_give_me_fan_art/

There's also the webcomics and the EO2 manga: https://mangadex.org/title/2c1ed758-4d64-4735-949e-e5148afa389e/sekaiju-no-meikyuu-comics

I made this sub as an alternative to r/EtrianOdyssey. Though it's not as big a deal as other subreddits migrating, given how small it was - it was basically just for new players to find advice (which, probably won't be here as much, given how lemmy is harder to wrap your head around) and for sharing fanart/memes once in a week.

What I did notice from my few hours on lemmy, however, is that it's pretty good at recommending new communities. So if you're from Sopuli.xyz (or other instance if this community gets going) and stumbled upon here, welcome! Try our dungeon-crawler with fantastic combat and party building!
