So the difficulty switches actually do something besides damage and health buffs

I hope someone makes a list of all or nearly all chips and their locations by the time the game releases in the west. Hell, I want to start theorycrafting now >.<

I could probably help with that.

I have almost all of the chips.

Every enemy for the most part has a specific normal and rare material plus a chip.

How long is this for a full playthrough?

Man, that would be amazing! Even just a list of the chips and what they do would be great!

Ohhh, that. Okay. Thanks!

HAH yea that was so good. I loved that respective part in A too, actually.

It takes 35 to 40 hours to 'complete' the story. Aka the prerequisite number of endings.

It takes about 10 hours for one playthrough

Oh man. Is it a big spoiler? I'm honestly really curious.

Wait what?

 

[Spainkiller]

No, it was just a bug if you played before fully downloading the game .

It's fixed now.

I can unfortunately confirm that this has NOT been fixed now.

 

[Deputy Dangle]

I could use some help with a Route C side quest:

Spoiler

I can solve the isometric box puzzle for Sorting Trouble 3, but I can't seem to interact with the Resistance Member that you need to rescue. I tried clearing out as many enemies in the nearby area to see if it would solve the problem with no luck. I'm not sure if this is a bug or I'm missing something.

Edit - Figured it out, wasn't as thorough clearing out the area as I'd thought. This sure was finicky.

You can

hide behind one of the trees to the left and hack til it dies since it bypasses all objects.

Not really, just difficulty adjustments

I forget things too! xD

never Sells me the two weapons i'm missing! Don't know how many time i tried but this is stupid, it's just random luck!

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Are the different endings obtained by just replaying the game or by some cryptic shit that requires a guide/luck?

 

[carda114]

Hey, could somebody possibly help me get to this one chest located in the factory?

Spoiler

It can be spotted right around the end of your time with the death cult machines, by the Factory: Furnace terminal. A set of stairs blocks access to it. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get up there.

Thanks in advance.

replaying the game for the story required endings, other stuff for the joke or extra lore based endings

I've got it prepared, just need one more review for the Metacritic score to go live & we're in business.

You already have 5 reviews (not all of them are added in Metacritic, but the other ones are present in OpenCritic):

RPGFan - 9.3/10
DualShockers - 9/10
The Outer Haven - 9/10
SiriusGaming - 9/10
Gameblog.fr - 9/10

 

[Theswweet]

I just finished the

Lunar Tear sidequest.

That was some top-tier nostalgia.

Yes, and I have all of them featured in the draft, too.

Metacritic decides what outlets are trusted, however, whereas Opencritic combines all of them. That's why Opencritic has a score when Metacritic doesn't.

I've decided to err on the side of caution - and avoid all the questions - by waiting for that last score to give us a Metacritic value before posting the review thread.

 

[darkwing]

do you have to do the side quests again for the next playthrough?

 

[Fangel]

No. Everything is carried forward. Side-quest progress is wiped if you dont finish it completely.

 

[EatChildren]

I can't get over that E3 boss fight made reality. Absolute Taro / Platinum high. A perfect synergy of both.

I feel like I could just show anyone that fight and they'd instantly be interested in the game.

It's what got a lot of people interested, and having played through it, I can say it lives up to the hype.

Yea I know the E3 trailer alone was great, and that definitely sold me. But like you and I both know, the entire thing is just so much more glorious and crazy.

 

[Kain-Nosgoth]

i'm personally glad that i didn't watched it (or any other trailer), since it's my favourite music of the game!

But yeah i understand why it would hype anyone! Also nice to see how the music get fleshed out since this trailer!

It looks like all Plug-in chips have caps and so far Weapon Attack Up caps at +6 which is 50% more damage.

Combust caps at 7 seconds regardless of how many are equipped.

Almost done with the sheet and then later on today I'll go back in and add the caps.

nope, you can go +7 (didn't tried +8 ), but it's another NPC that do it for you, unfortunately, i can't remember which one it is!
