Lunaryon has decided to ditch the MAG mechanic entirely so I replaced it with Sup.Lib.

Hm, the Ring of Gaea and the Order of Messiah are canonical factions in Shin Megami Tensei, for the record, representing Chaos and Law, respectively.
This quest is also mixed with Devil Survivor, given the lockdown and summoning app.
Hm, as it was with Devil Survivor, there may be mutually exclusive party members. Nikaido Tadashi, for example, was only available as a party member on Naoya's route. Even in Overclocked, he could never be in the same party as Kamiya Eiji.
Eiji and Keisuke also will never remain if the player sides with Naoya.
In this case, well, it might be quite apparent that Hess is going to be the mutually exclusive party member, for many reasons. The players are not going to steer Taylor towards Law or Chaos, and Hess would seem like Kaido to be exclusive to the Chaos route. Even then, whether Taylor could recruit Hess at all is questionable, even if she wanted to do so.
Then again, it was possible to recruit just about everyone in Devil Survivor 2 if the player is careful. It might be possible here.
Hm, if it is following in the mode of Devil Survivor 2 in that regard, would it be viable to recruit Clara and Haoyu into the party? It might be possible to persuade them. After all, Amane was originally of the Shomonkai but can be convinced to join the player in other routes, including Eiji's.

For whatever reason, Limited Time offer got fragmented

@veekie , since you voted for my plan, figured I should let know that I was updating it. You'll probably need to cast a new vote for the tally to update.
Anyway, with MAGnet.cor now off the table, updating my plan to actually work for the vote tally and to grab something else neat:
[X][Plan] I Am Thou
-[X][Comp] Skill_Crack.cor
-[X][COMP] Laplace_Clock.cor
-[X][COMP] Meta.TV
-[X][COMP] Velv.con
Skill_Crack sounds like the closest equivalent to the Skill card system. Which can be pretty dang handy imo.

It's because some people just type out the plan name and not the entire plan, also the QM fully removed one of the options so the person that DID write out the full plan needs to update it for it to match for the program.
Just so you know, for the tally to actually collect the plans together, you have to put Plan: at the start of it, then it'll collect all the votes for it regardless of if they vote the full thing or not

Usually Plan votes don't fragment when you just type the name. That's one of the benefits of making it a Plan vote.
Okay new plan since the accursed mag mechanic is gone(it was cut from nocturne for a REASON)
[X][Plan] Naoya's pupil
-[X][COMP] Laplace_Clock.cor
-[X][COMP] Blood of Bel

-[X][COMP] A_Conv.cor
-[X][COMP] Cath_Shad.cor
-[X][COMP] Mini_Shad.cor
-[X][COMP] D_Conv.cor
Going for Naoya's special app and the blood of bel might open us up to stuff related to him fairly early, functionally we'd end up with him or Loki as a sort crash course safety net. Longterm it open up the bel route chaos route, but even without that Naoya's a pretty reasonable guy and won't take militant action against us unless we go hardcore law, so having him as a early ally seems solid(there's actually a secound non chaos route he will help you out on in devil survivor making him a super chill faction rep).
To those going with I'm sorry remember demi fiend was a strength/magic build, we invested in guns, so uh its not uh really practical(otherwise i'd be considering the mantra stuff). My setup open up a lot of way to getting powerful demons rosters early and making sure we get good demon recruits, having access to rare type of demons early will open up the fusion chart. To those saying we can get certain things later there are so many limited time offers within quest that you gotta ask yourself even if can get it later would you actually get it later. I happen to think the stuff here is worth its weight in points(particularly the demon fusion stuff which will allows us to get some powerful demons). Dont vote on something because its limited vote for it because its good.
Meta app is here because its among last affordable thing and magic aint really something we will use often on our mc likely(gun skill gun skills for days!), a hideyhole to hide from the bels sounds nice to have too.
Edit: Naoya's english VA Kyle Hebert, our qm might reference this he sure as hell would be a interesting in-law/cousin to have.

I will do my best to keep track of all the split votes, because there are some options within the vote counter to manually shift votes around and collect them if they've gone astray.
Similarly, while it is possible to have either Clara or Haoyu, trying to get both of them together is unlikely to last outside of serious greater threats. They are very diametrically opposed to one another.
And while you might be able to work with Sophia, as in within the same group or organization, outside of big threats there is little chance of them teaming up.

A reminder that while voting we keep in mind Taylor's mental situation, physical situation, and her current high Intelligence and Agility build.

I'm sorry, but plot is more important than mechanics and we CAN'T find this anywhere else, so if we don't take it now, Annette is actually dead and we can't do that to poor Taylor.

Really? I see it as the opposite. It'd crush this girl to find out everything has been a lie, and who her mom is just making her life even harder. That she could have been around, could have found a way home, could have told them the truth so they didn't worry and collapse like they did. This could easily twist Annette as a character and Taylor as a person.
There's a reason most demigods didn't have happy endings.
Also fun fact, Naoya's English VA is Kyle Hebert.
I think Taylor has has cousin. ^-^

From the way I'm reading it, Annette has been banished and sealed away from Earth Bet, so she couldn't return even if she wanted to and it's only through STEVEN aka Lucifer himself if I remember my SMT lore right, that she can get a message through.

That doesn't change the volatile emotions and perspective of a depressed and abused and neglected teenage girl.

Wha... An absentee parent is VERY different to a parent in exile. Hell, Taylor might even equate Annette's unfair treatment with her own bullying.

Unless Lucy has pretended to be Steven at some point, you do not. Steven is most likely Stephen who is modeled after Steven Hawking.
