I Can't Fix You — SMT IV: A World Shaped by the Strong | made with ngram
About the video
This video was created by ngram to trace the story of Shin Megami Tensei IV through a sequence of fifteen named scenes, moving from the city of Mikado out through pivotal characters and locations including Gabriel, Walter, Hikaru, Isabeau, and Jonathan, the demon Fusion mechanic, the underworld realms of Naraku and Purgatorium, the entity Merkabah, and climactic moments such as the Reactor, Slash, Strike, Mikado burning, and a final Rooftop scene. Built in a 16:9 widescreen format using HTML/CSS motion graphics, the video presents this narrative arc as a structured visual retrospective, letting each named beat function as its own chapter in retelling how the game's world is shaped by conflict between its factions and figures. The progression from the home city through escalating confrontations to a burning Mikado and a rooftop conclusion gives viewers a clear sense of the story's rising stakes and its central theme of strength shaping the world. It's a concise way for anyone familiar with or curious about SMT IV to revisit the throughline of its plot without replaying the game, using motion graphics to carry the pacing and structure rather than live-action or game footage.
