Why was he the villain?
"user, I'm trying to help you. I want to make your dreams a reality."
The climax of the new dungeon was better for me personally, it scales things down a lot, but it still executes on it really well and feels a lot more personal than the Yaldabaoth fight.
heh sounds like communism to me
terrible bait

Can you fucking stop with the maruki spoilers? I'm not even going to play royal anymore thanks to people like you
Maruki is hands down the best and most complex villain in Persona, his palace is the best dungeon in Persona, and his final boss fight makes Nyx look like joke because it's a billion times cooler.
You can take a steamy bath with Akechi
A more ideal world would be if Maruki just set safety nets while you get to explore using your free will what's within those safety nets. It'd be no different than how modern society has safety nets like hospitals and law, just because you'd suffer less doesn't mean you lack free will within those boundaries. And if you don't want those safety nets, you should be able to opt out of them just like in modern society. Morgana mentioned some would actually benefit from Maruki's world if they consented to it. Maruki was not wrong in his ideals, he just was imperfect at executing them. But just like the first hospital, it takes time to improve new tech. Why the PT didn't just help Maruki improve his new tech is not addressed. Why is old reality better? That's like saying unga bunga caveman society full of parasites and rape better because it's natural. No it fucking isn't, if you go by that logic, the earth is supposed to be some volcanic hellhole because it was that way for billions of years before life appeared. What's natural is that things evolve and change. Being stuck in old ways is unnatural and hinders progress.
