I haven't really tried since 2005, but still. I could never beat him back in the day for some reason, so I figured it was time to finally close this chapter of my life. I don't really know why I never beat him, but this was before I started doing challenges and I didn't fully understand the game yet. I remember getting to the second phase and that was it, so I probably got screwed by the armor break. Anyway, I decided to document my first ever victory against this guy and that's the video you're watching right now.

It's the regular strategy with max stats, fully upgraded celestial weapons and armors with Auto-Potion, Auto-Haste, Auto-Defense and Defense +20%. It's a simple battle when you know what to do, but it's easy to screw up. Basically, all you have to do is make sure the arms never get a turn, and that they're not both alive when Penance gets a turn after you've attacked him 20 times. Then he uses Judgment Day and it's all over.

That's about it. This was a productive week for me, as I also completed another project in a 16 years old game: The VR missions in Metal Gear Solid 2. These two projects are why I haven't made any videos lately, but I'll be back with new stuff soon. Until then, enjoy the rest of easter!
