Nocturne is insanely hard. If you want a challenge go with it. If you want something more casual and fun go with DDS. 

Some recommendation SMT games(not all ps2 but including in case):

  • Devil summoner 1 and 2 (PS2)
  • Devil survivor 1 and 2 (DS)

Not many other SMT games on the PS2 honestly.

On a scale of 1 -10 how hard is Nocturne, and also, ive heard that the random battles are very frequent, is that true for both games?

Normal mode: 6

Hard mode: 9

 

The random battles are somewhat frequent. Not enough to get extremely annoying, but not too little to where you can walk halfway through a room with no battles.

Sorry I'm asking so much, but Which game is the longest and which one has the better story? Seeing as how i only have enough for 1 right now, i need to know this stuff from people i know. thanks. And also which one has more things to do, like side quests and shtuff.

Length: Nocturne

Story: This is debatable but I think DDS has the better story but it is split into two games (saga 1 and 2) so if you don't think you'll be able to get 2 for a while Nocturne would be better in the story aspect.

Sidequests: Nocturne for sure

I'd get Nocturne out of all of the other PS2 SMT games. However, I do like the Digital Devil Saga games better considering it has more of a cohesive plotline, but you really have to play both of them since it's essentially one game broken up into two installments. Never played the Devil Summoner games, though.All of them are hard as hell, though. Hope you don't mind ragequitting quite a few times, but all of them are quite lengthy and fun so it's worth it.

HERE IS MY PLAN GUYS. IM BUYING PERSONA 3 FES AND NOCTURNE. AND BY THE TIME IM DONE WITH THOSE ILL HAVE MONEY FOR BOTH DDS GAMES. WEEEEEEE

If your looking for a SMT game with a good storyline, then choose the Persona 2 duology.

BEST STORY EVER.
