Megami Tensei IV: Final - Other Neutral Route complete!

And a few thoughts...
Oh, and lots of spoilers of course.
If you noticed that there are no images of Toki, it's because I'm saving every image and such I've collected from the game on her for a separate post.



I have to say, that sure was a bad end. I mean, you have to kill your entire party, kill a whole bunch of people, kill IV's protagonist and revive him as your puppet, and then you erase the entire universe.
And you get a throne to sit on... and proceed to have sex with your Goddess to populate the new world? And you wait for someone to rebel against you and IV protagonist is still your puppet.

I guess the best part of this route is seeing how happy Dagda is. He actually seems giddy at times, bragging about you to the enemies and stuff of that sort.
And you get to see why he was fine with getting killed by you in the Good Neutral route. In the end, he just wanted to be free from God's chains. In Good Neutral, you kill him. In Bad Neutral, he disappears by himself because his creator and his universe has died. It all works out for him.

One thing I found unfortunate is that regardless of who you "revive" as your Goddess, they say the same lines and have very little appearance through the rest of the route. The lines they say in battle and in field events don't change either. If you choose a guy, Dagda does follow up on the fact they don't truly have a gender anymore, but... yeah...
When Toki says these types of stuff, it actually doesn't seem weird or "template conversation". Imagine Guston saying her lines... 

But yeah, painful killing your entire party one by one...







And I was surprised at this event. Bam, just squishes the item...







 And you can choose a guy for this...




You fight five human hordes... that are all really weak. Really makes you feel how powerful you are over normal humans, as you proceed to slaughtering all of them...
