Is SMT Nocturne hard to play?

The game is ridiculously unfair. I don't mean that term loosely. Games like “Dark Souls” and “Cuphead” are extremely difficult, but they are fair. “SMT III,” on the other hand, is just blatantly unreasonable.

What is the true demon ending?

The True Demon Ending (TDE) in Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne is a secret, difficult-to-achieve ending where the player rejects the cycle of rebirth, destroys Kagutsuchi, and becomes Lucifer's ultimate weapon, leading to the end of the current world and an eternal struggle against God. To get it, you must complete the entire Labyrinth of Amala (defeating all Fiends and Metatron) before entering the final dungeon (Tower of Kagutsuchi); this automatically locks you into the TDE, overriding all other choices and alignment flags.
