I was just wondering if any fellow Giant Bombers were still playing this game. It is rather lengthy, if not grindy at the end. I managed to get through it a few months ago but I was wondering if anyone was just starting or half way done.

Anyone still playing?
I just started playing a couple of weeks ago. Definitely enjoying everything about it so far; I've already spent 35 hours in it. I really enjoy exploring the dungeons and doing all of the EX Missions.
I picked it up a few weeks ago for a nice price. Since I'm busy with grad school and stuff I'm only about 3 hours in, but I'm absolutely loving it. Playing it on the bus gets some weird looks, I have to say. Even for folks who know nothing about games, it must look really strange.
I don't remember it being that hard when I first played it in the Japanese version as I just steamrolled the thing, but Ouroboros was quite a roadblock when I played it again in the American release. It's definitely the hardest boss in the game up until the final.
Also, Devil Survivor is much easier to get into than SJ. I don't know which I like better, they're both good games.
I just started this game, well I'm 10 hours in. The game definitely feels like a step back from Nocturne or the Digital Devil Saga games, I think it's still cool.
You definitely have to be the kind of person that enjoys dungeon crawlers to play this one, but the demon designs and the general personality of the game really carry it for me.
