Bloody Destiny is way too peppy.

Who the heck thought that was an improvement over Deadline?

It was usually about now that I'd try and get a Gozu-Tennoh (US Vortek) because someone decided it was a smart idea to give a level 18 Persona Megidola.

Gozu-Tennoh is so powerful when together with Phaleg I literally beat the PS1 game with him.

An extremely dirty secret: pretty much absolutely everything that's strong against Nuclear just so happens to be weak to things Phaleg is packing... or just being beaten in the face with a sword.

Huh?

I thought it was obvious Philemon's face is just an older version of the protagonist's.

I thought he looked like Kandori, myself. But maybe that was more in the original.

In the original it was more blatant that it was the protagonist...

...if you were playing the Japanese version, where the main's hair was not bright red.

Pretty much.

When I beat the American version by spamming Gozu-Tennoh (who generally crushes Pandora), the PS1 reveal was all "OK yeah so?" until I saw the Japanese portraits. Then it clicks: it's an older, wiser version of the protagonist.

I mean, there's a reason that every main protagonist's Persona's first line is some variation on "I art thou. Thou art I. I come from the sea of thy heart."

Philemon grants you this power to summon parts of yourself at the beginning, then at the end he pulls off his mask to reveal... it was you! It was you all along, Austin!

People are overthinking this whole thing with the Zhang Zhou bit or any other explanation, especially after Persona 2 where they hit you directly in the face with it.

I'm not sure what Paimon has to do with Sloth or Dominion with Pride...

How odd. Philemon looks absolutely nothing like the art of Zhang Zhou...
