I can never tell if this entry is under-appreciated or if the fans do love it. The sheer amount of fanart it has compared to SMTIV does make me wonder though.

I really do like Strange Journey, while the gameplay isn't my favorite of the franchise it's a whole lot better than say the SNES entries. The real draw for me were the characters and story which was more fleshed out than other entries, including SMTIV itself. Glad I blasted through but damn did that game get mean towards the end.
