Remaster changes
- The ability to pick and choose skills when fusing demons like in Devil Survivor and Shin Megami Tensei IV.
- Confirmed via patch.
- Optional Boss fights against Serph and the Embryon from Digital Devil Saga (basically the Demi-Fiend Superboss fight but from Demi-Fiend's point of view).
- Jossed; there are no new bosses.
- A Harder Than Hard mode (akin to the Hardtype patch).
- Jossed; Merciful is the only new difficulty.
- A retooled Magatama system akin to the Mantra system from Digital Devil Saga.
- Jossed; it's the same.
- Rebalancing to make magic builds viable in the endgame?
- Seems to be confirmed; people playing with magic builds are seeing higher damage, with only the True Final Boss remaining an issue because Pierce still only affects Physical.

...The reason for his Fate Worse than Death has to do with a previous Conception that he was involved with. He was a candidate for forming a reason, but he tried to screw with the system using the Amala Network, deciding that he could use it to form a new paradise out of the Vortex World instead of having the world be reborn. The Great Will was not pleased and cursed him for it.
