Forum:How come Shin Megami Tensei II didn't turn out to be sequel-proof?

Let's think about this for a while. Just to warn you, spoilers are to be expected.

Think: In the end of Shin Megami Tensei II, regardless of the alignment path you take, you killed YHVH, and in this series there's nothing more powerful than YHVH, so that should have sequel-proof. It's like Halloween 2 or in Terminator 2: Judgement Day. Unless the sequels are just alternative scenarios with different rules or parallel universes (which would technically make the MegaTen series even more of sci-fi than Strange Journey made it out to be), this does not make sense. However, in retrospect, I'm guessing that the original Shin Megami Tensei could have been sequel-proof as well, since Atlus probably cheated the timeline to allow room for the sequel.
