Persona 3:The Journey

Phew...finally done with it! Hah! I went straight to beating all 3 final bosses without saving! Woohoo! After 105 hours of gameplay, I've finished the storyline! I might settle the optional quests, but later.

Here's a report about the 3 last bosses I faced.

1. Jin (aka. Geekface with Freakbot)
His persona did not make any sense to me. It looks like a flying saucer with legs and one arm that's always spinning. Well, whatever it is, it was C-H-E-A-P! He might have been able to exploit every weakness I had, but he forgot one vital detail. By the time I got that far into the game, I've already gathered Personas which have almost NO weakness. So, *bang* *pow* *smack* and that's game!

2. Takaya (aka. Revolver Jesus)
People who play this game and go to forums should know this nickname well. He looks like Jesus and he holds a revolver. And just like the "savior" Jesus, Takaya created his own religion based on a god who would cleanse the world of all darkness. Except that humans=darkness, so you get the point. The idiot keeps on firing his revolver at me, and I have a fire draining Persona equipped, so the battle also took very little time to settle.

3. Nyx Avatar (aka. Diehard bastard!)
The boss took me 1 1/2 hours to beat! A whooping total of NINETY minutes in front of the TV! And why?! Because he has 13, I repeat, THIRTEEN forms to whack. Kill one, another one comes. By the time I got to the 10th form, my party has already wasted all their SP casting spells. And then, I finally made it to the 13th form! First, insane HP. 2nd, insane defense. 3rd, he pulls out techniques which are practically cheating! Moonless Gown, Nyx becomes invincible and reflects all damage to the attacker until Nyx chooses to lift the gown! Then, there's Night Queen. Bomb whole party for mad damage and sends nonsense status effects to whole party! The final form took me 1 hour to beat! And guess what? After I whoop his ass, he stands up again and says, "I cannot be defeated because I am eternity itself!" Of course, stuff happened afterwards to end the story, but I ain't tellin' ya!

Phew... at least the ending went well. "Worry not, children (allies). He (main character) is indeed unique. He has at last found the answer to life. You all shall one day find it as well. He just found it earlier."

Now, I'm starting The Answer. And apparently, finding the answer to life is apparently a journey in life. We will find the answer to life at the end of the journey, which would be...death. Well, let's just see what happens afterwards.

Now then, I'll end this with Igor's damn nice quote.

"Death is not a hunter unbeknownst by its prey.
One is always aware that it lies in wait.
Although life is but a journey to the grave,
It should not be undertaken without hope.
Only then will a traveler's story live on,
Cherished by those who bid him farewell."
