Mythology is Cool

[escobert]

I like Norse mythology best.

As Im from Merrie Old England I can only play Persona 3, 4 and Nocturne/Lucifers Call. But I like reading up on the compendium on Persona 4, how they bring all the mythologies together. Im also going to buy a book on German mythology soon.

I love mythology If there were degrees in mythology that actually landed me a job I would totally be studying it, astronomy too.

Norse mythology is my favourite but biblical ones are cool too, mainly in the book of revelation with the skeletal horsemen, the dragon, the winged leopard with many heads...etc although many of the creatures are supposed to represent current and previous world powers, it's pretty interesting.

Do I have a series for you.

This looks crazy familiar....and awesome. What's it called?

I swear the trumpeter angel looks like the summon from persona/SmT!

You actually got it. Its Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne. Most of the designs for the monsters in Persona 3 and 4 were lifted from this game. All of the creatures from Revelations and the Four Horsemen are optional battles in the game.

Mind=Blown. I knew it looked familiar! I haven't played nocturn but other than persona, I have played smt4 and currently Devil survivor 2 rb. I wanna play Nocturn now, it looks so cool!

Eeee! SMT IV You should try Strange Journey too!

I totally will!

Oh, no, this has turned into another Shinra Megamarmite Tensions appreciation thread hasn't it?

Call me when it's over...

(SPOILER) Actually, I don't mind the series at all, I'm really enjoying the Persona games. I just like making fun of how much Fynn loves it

NERDS!!!!!!!!!!

This is a pretty good resource to learn more about the Greek gods and related subjects. Is it bad my first thought when reading about the Titans was how they'd make the earth move while smurfing? It is? Okay.

I think you and Wolf Kanno should interact more often

You do realize that the earth is Gaia, right? As in, the mother of the Titans, Gaia? Right? As in their mother?

Damn. Gaea getting some action on the side without having to do anything.

And yes, I know Gaea is the Earth. My brain just didn't think anything of it because incest between the gods and titans were common as smurf. Everyone is either married or banging their sister and trout.

"There was Eru, the One, who in Arda is called Ilúvatar; and he made first the Ainur, the Holy Ones, that were the offspring of his thought, and they were with him before aught else was made. And he spoke to them, propounding to them themes of music; and they sang before him, and he was glad." - AINULINDALË

Tolkien's creation myth in the Silmarillion. Total magic and my absolute fav.
