Favor is a mechanic in Devil Survivor. It is a representation of how much a character likes the Protagonist.
Overview
Favor serves a similar function to Alignment in other Megami Tensei games; being a hidden score that affects route availability, how characters respond to the protagonist, and whether or not a character joins the party. Throughout the story, which dialogue options are picked may increase or decrease the Favor of different characters. Favor can also be affected by other factors, such as seeing specific events or the outcome of a certain battle.
Routes
In addition to their other requirements, two of the routes available at the end of the 6th day requires the protagonist to have enough favor with the associated character to unlock:
Kaido's route, which requires the protagonist to have a minimum of 34 favor with him;
and Amane's route, which requires the protagonist to have a minimum of 35 favor with her.
Haru
On the 4th day, an event in which the protagonist has to persuade Haru will appear. To be able to successfully do so, the protagonist has to choose the right dialogue options, with Haru's favor affecting whether she reacts positively or negatively to the answers given.
| Prompt: "Haru: I...I'm the one who destroyed Tokyo..."
|
| Response |
Result
|
| "Demons were already here" |
Succeeds if Favor is 4 or higher, fails if Favor is -5 or lower
|
| Prompt: "Haru:...Destroy them? Haha... If you could, things wouldn't have gotten this bad, right?"
|
| Response |
Result
|
| "We can do it!" |
Succeeds if Favor is 2 or higher, fails if Favor is 1 or lower
|
| "Hmm... Good point." |
Always fails.
|
End of spoilers.
Izuna
Izuna will join the protagonist's party on the last day of the Atsuro route if her Favor is 8 or higher, and the Gin route if it is 6 or higher.
