But raising a kid certainly gives you a different perspective . What it doesn ' t give you is any extra scientific insight . <| sep |> Rather than play it , I read the first and second novels only the first is called Megami Tensei the series is Digital Devil Story . The Famicom game is based on the first novel iirc . The story in the first novel is pretty cool albeit a bit weird and gory . It ' s worth a read if you like campy horror . Or you can watch the animated adaptation that ' s supposed to be bad . I haven ' t watched it yet myself . The story in the second novel is pretty cool too although I can ' t remember the ending . I feel like the first one was more memorable . Edit Oh , if anyone wants to play Megami Tensei or its sequel , both have been remade on Super Famicom and by Altus at that point , I think .
