Hey everyone! Just wanted to say a quick thank you first of all, for watching the video and hope you found some humour and entertainment from it. It took a huge effort to edit this so just you guys watching it means a lot. Also just wanted to remind you all this is purely for entertainment, not a review, guide or anything serious, Merely a Platinum playthrough with a glimpse of my frustrations I had during it. Regardless I say this multiple times during the video and will say it again; It's a GREAT game. See you guys in the next one and thank you again!
The only things that stopped me from playing this game are - my limited time due to work and other life engagements, my limited skills in this kind of game (I'm more of a racing gamer) and also the difficulty level on the first play through. I saw some full game play videos of it and the video itself is 18 hours long, played by a pro gamer (i.e. someone far more efficient than myself). I also saw in some comment that someone took 100+ hours and is still in chapter 3, so I would say, a first play through would take me around 150 hours to get everything (although I suppose new game plus is always an easier run). On a separate point, I saw a video saying that in the final boss fight against the Great Sage's broken body, you can actually equip a clothing / amour from the Snake boss at 4:47 to take advantage of the recovery effects that is only in effect when you are in watery area
20:25 Im in pain for you, brother. You didn't know you could just use your chime to teleport back to your last shrine? Or if you discovered the zodiac place, you can go there too and come back.😭Yet you still made it through! 🫡🫡🫡🫡Respect! im still stuck on this dude but I beat every other boss already too! 😅🎉
@@MitoLusitano nah bro the desert rat was crazy XD as was the vanguard tiger and boss of chapter 3 , pagoda the mechanics of the power sucking light and the dmg amp on enemies was fine just cling to your insence,, dont forget to now and then go back to pill guy and goard guy, with 8 drinks ur gud to go
@@dustindemuth1605no exaggeration, easily my least favourite section of the game. Just didn’t find it remotely enjoyable. Which is funny considering there are definitely much harder sections later on
Honestly mate, every reaction you had was exactly how I felt playing what is the best, or maybe 2nd best (die hard Witcher 3 fan), game ever. You seem like an awesome dude and that was a great time to watch. Sat through the whole 50 mins of this and what a pleasure, earned my sub.
The total play through is around 40 if you’re not dying 20 times per each boss in chapter 2 and beyond. But to say “not much grinding” and free platinum is CRAZY. This game isn’t got the faint
I don't care about the platinum. Got to ng+++ Got thr full bull armour set and the jingle bang. Now just playing for the fun of it. I don't have to fight Earling or the Great Sage ever again lol. I can enjoy myself now
@@exaltedreverse4463 im currently in ng+ and Just got 2nd Upgrade for the Headband, so going into ng++ soon to finish those off and basically be Done With the game until dlc Drops
My favorite feature is missing full charge attacks on bosses. Literally died a few times after a massive whiff only to be absolutely punished for what should have been a total banger.
20:30 you can teleport to the last shrine you visited by use the Incense Trail Talisman (the first item you received in Chapter 1), and you can come back straight to fight Phase 3 (or any phase you leftover, not need to fight from phase 1)
So many things people don't think about when you play thru and then edit yourself a video. Slow down. Read things as they get presented to you. And yet... still... thank you for proving it possible.
I just finished the game so I can finally watch the whole video 😂 Gives me relief knowing that we shared all the things you were frustrated at! Great video!! Keep it up Valzoo
I've on my N+ playthrough and is so fun to see that we had pretty simular playthroughs.. Yellow Loong was my biggest roadblock throughout the entire game
I found out that you can beat Yellow Loong with thrust stance easily. Just keep your distance and charge heavy attack. Not too far away just enough for 2 or 3 focus.
Overall it is a fun platinum journey for me. Yes there are many missables, but no way near mess. You have to play 2 playthroughs anyway, so just make sure do those missed trophies at your 2nd playthrough.
That isn't true. If you don't get some key items everytinenit will require another play. For example of you Don't kill the Bishui beast in your first you will only have like 5 or 6 when you complete your second
@ but why don’t kill bishui before starting the 2nd playthrough, it is not a missable boss, you can still load your save after beating broken shell and go kill bishui or do other things you missed.
Being able to warp out and respec the 3rd phase of Yellowbrow was a game changer. I Put all Thunder Bane Defense and used SpellBinder after my initial charged attack into Wondering White Spirit. Beat him first try. Mind you, I banged my head against that wall for about an hour before I tried warping out, lol.
The intro sounds like someone going through theyre first kinda soulsy game. Cause in full proper souls like, thats the basic, especially if your on a small rooftop like in Anor Londo where theres also archers to always hit or shoot ya off. And missable achivments, thats very soulsy. Its annoying but its the way. Still, amazingly done and thank you. I now know some of what Ill need to do and what ive missed. Ive done EVERYTHING in Chapter 1 and 2, except killing the king before the prince so thats...fun. Gotta replay for that at least, and just hope I get all the rest stuff.
20:10 You can actually use the teleport talisman (forgot the name) which makes you teleport to the outside shrine right before you entered the building. From there, you can change your build, or move to other areas to complete optional stuffs.
Every secret area drops an item that helps with the main boss, fireproof mantle, wind tamer, weavers needle and the fan as it drops from the main boss of Ch 5 for Ch 6
Took me 2 ngs but it was pretty fun to get. The fact that I actually got trophies randomly when I wasn't set on getting plat made it pretty easy. Farming licorice was possibly the most annoying part.
poor bloke with the stone vanguard fight, after fighting the second prince I noticed 2 paths, when I made it to the stone vanguard knowing how far away the shrine was I went back and took the other path until I fought through to that boss, I didn't even think about the pain that people would go through trying to attempt that boss over and over having to run so far.
20:20 You actually can return to a shrine to change your spells, etc. if you use the talisman that sends you back to the last one you've visited. You can also return to fight Yellowbrow again by simpy traveling through a shrine to the hall to try again.
Just got my plat an hour ago, took me 65 hours coincidentally too lol. Loved the game! Absolutely loved it. First time playing on the 1st playthrough as a bit rough, some bosses were easier than others and I didn’t really struggle that much with the game. Definitely a huge recommend but if you’re going for the plat, it’s a huge commitment as so many of them are NPC related and RNG drops which to me in a single player game is a issue. Otherwise 10/10 👍
Yellow wind sage = Oniwa A boss made to push you to getting that “click” for the game or raging into uninstalling. Really makes you find that balance between the dodge and damage mechanics.
The game is hard on the first run. New game plus is easy. Trophies are easy but annoying. There’s lots of RNG drops which I hate. And celestial seeds is also a waste of time. Now, FF7 Rebirth is a hard platinum. It took me 160 hours to get.
20:20 You have an item in your inventory that will teleport you back to your last shrine. You get it in the very beginning of the game. It’s very useful for this situation and also if you don’t feel like running miles back to your last shrine to heal before moving forward
I still on new my 1st NG+ and I already got all the trophies, I missed a few pieces of armor in my first playthrough. Then again at chapter 6 again and still going to keep playing to get all the relics upgrades and the armor to mythic plus cause why not.
Round 2 of helping people .. for those that are having prblems with this god forsaken hell home called the pagoda realm abuse cloud step and rush to the top and beat captain wise voice then come back and explore it stops the random debuff off
i just entered chapter 5, it is fun to play with friends,, after one or 2 deaths hand over the controller (i do play on pc) and unexpectedly we keep up with each other and basically as it happens now this friend beats a boss, than i do and than another friend, if you can get em together XD maybe start a new journey to get them hooked. some bosses are big hurdles XD some bosses require patience, some require endless dodges others you need to be super agressive since their fases amp up with big steps in difficulty. story is good, gameplay is good, it looks amazing and beating a boss after many tries is very satisfying. with friends on distance we talk about secret bosses or story lines XD all to get more power spells and stats haha
For anyone fighting the stone vangaurd.. the rock with arms he was talkin about at the start of the video the rockrest flat shrine is 10 seconds on the other side of him.. come from the other way … you will never in the entirety of this gane have to walk 17 kilometers everytime you die
you can respect on yellow brow fight, just use the talisman, then after respec you can travel back there, no need to refight the last boss moveset is just you if you maxed out all talents lol
In Chapter 2, there’s a hidden bug boss where you could beat him and get an item that could block the wind (similar to the one you get in Chapter 1 that could block fire), so when the final boss yellow wind sage does the tornado thing, you could use it and it will be so much easier😂
I’m starting chapter 6 now, and by far the hardest boss for me so far was the tiger whos a blacksmith armorer. Taking the spot of the wandering wight, previously. Mainly because of the level in which you fight him.
@@danielfonville1840 It’s probably a playstyle difference. Yellow long I could keep distance, run around, and charge a heavy to rush in with. Rinse repeat. The tiger armourer, that isn’t happening. He’s on you constantly spamming attacks. When I’m done, I’ll probably look up how the really good guys deal with him.
Just started this game, only in Chapter 2 but already missed multiple items. I even knew beforehand NOT to beat the Chapter 1 "first secret boss" before the Wandering Wight, so when I got to him I died intentionally, then went back to the Wight and he was gone! You can't even look at the Elder dude and he disappears... So I already missed that. Just learned that I apparently missed out on Rat Dad's soul bc I didn't kill him before his second son... F'er was up on pillars throwing rocks at me, I was gonna worry about him later.. Absolutely love the game so far, but miss-able items like this and others mentioned in the video aren't good design decisions....
bro its crazy how little leveling you did on your way up to the yellow wind sage especially after going back to finish all the secret content leading up. i heard from a source online that the yellow wind sage was 3 phases, i read that as 3 separate health bars for some reason and got super intimidated and leveled the shit out of myself after getting my ass kicked by him a couple times.
I heard he was a hard boss but to my surprise, I beat him on the first try 😂 Now I did do every thing else in chapter 2 before I got to him so that probably helped. But I was nervous to fight him for sure. I think playing God of War Ragnarok on the hardest difficulty prepared me some what lol Because I sure as hell don’t play any souls like games 🤷🏻♂️
But it's also a thing, that you have to do the side quest of the yellow wind sages past first. So you can get the item that can block his wind attacks.
I am gonna be one of the 5 ppl on the planet who is gonna say they loved pagoda realm, I know everyone hates it, but I am soo used to fromsoft welcome to hell levels that this 1 felt better. Like caelid bro I hated that, atleast here while you are in pagoda state as I have come to call it you deal more damage, and for enemies I just spammed lock on the entire way thru, so I knew ahead of time if some1 was about to jump me.
That rock boss in chapter 2 I went right past the tiger boss and came round the other side you get an item that wakens the other rock boss and they fight each other then you only have to fight a rock boss with half heath after one wins. It was a happy accident because the tiger boss kept kicking my arse I gave up
I didn't know there was missable stuff when I started playing this game. Powerpyx hadn't yet updated their trophy guide, so according to them, everything could be done after the story. No problem! But then they updated their guide, and suddenly there was nothing but missables! That's when I gave up on the platinum. I mean, the game was fine, but I never want to play through it again. And as it turns out, even if you don't miss anything, you still need to play through most of the game a second time. So no. Not gonna happen. I usually platinum every game I play, but not this time.
To be fair, in the original story Erlang was the only one that could defeat Wukong. There were others that Wukong could not defeat without help, but they didn't bet him either. He tactically retreated to get tools.
Honestly I'd count this as probably one of my favorite game's of all time, so i'm going for the platinum... I've spent hours farming fire bellflowers for seeds WHY ARE THEY SO RARE
I think the 2nd chapter has such an odd difference between players, Tiger Vanguard was my third-to-last boss in that chapter, and Tiger Acolyte was before only the Rat King. I didn't die more than 5 times on any of them
Beat the game earlier today, but just need to unlock the true ending. I am not going for platinum though. 1, I don't have the patience, and 2 I missed a missable curio so I would have to start ng+ and go all the way to chapter 3 to get it. And I am NOT reliving the hell that is that prison!
Other than 5 hours wasted farming the bloody thunderflame seal and tiger tendon belt, it was an okay platinum. Games need to drop this mechanic of "rare drop loot" from mobs with less than 1% drop rate.
11:00 i hated that rock boss. I would get pissed off having to run back and getting hit by random mobs and then I would fight him irritated and just get clapped and have to do it again.(I went through the Tiger Temple first in ch 2)
@@iownall2222this and let be real, most bosses are just glorified buffed up regular enemies. I'd say the ending chapter and the secret areas are the only places with "bosses"
I see that in your 1st play you made it harder for you not using Vessels and Spirits. Also you can teleport frmn YellowBrow arena at any moment before you enter the battle via the inventory teleport to shrine item. When you come back you continue the fight from the phase you left off.
I’m still grinding on lotus every 30 mins to get the brew n seeds………………………..I hate this I already got everything at 54 hours mark but now I’m 56 hours in still no lotus seed in sight 😢
I don’t understand how the bosses can be so different from one player to another. I beat the yellow sage in 4 tries, and the yellow loong in 5, but it took me 3 hours and half to kill that damn king scorpion and u didn’t even mention it
honestly brewers bounty was my last one to get and jesus it must have taken me over 6 hours of farming to get the soaks from the liquorice plants and the ginseng ones they really need to sort out the RNG in this game for other people cause it was a joke
for context i have been on kang jin loong for about 3 hours now and if i beat the boss and it the game crashed and sent me back before i beat it... the game would be uninstalled ggs for the commitmnet
Got Platinum yesterday after ~85hrs at level 225. Had to go to end of chapter 5 in NG+. I really miss a statistics page in the game. I'd like to see how many deaths i had and at which boss.
Just know I got to the boss with the hand as a head and was distracted by my wife when they gave me nimbus so I just jumped off the cliff and died. When I respawned I was in the arena where you face the boss with the red hand as a head and could not use the nimbus spell. I was stuck tried everything and couldn’t get out of that arena. Had to start the game all over again. 💔
@@NovelVampire tried everything just kept respawning at the shrine without being able to use the nimbus spell even tho I had the option to, it just didn’t work. Even tried to jump on the chains to see if I can somehow get to a point where I can access the Nimbus
@@Joelado54 oh I probably feel bad to tell you this knowing it will drive you insane, but you know you can simply copy one of the hourly backup save files on your steam folder.
had to playthrough 3 times to get platinum, because kept accidently killing the spider boss before breaking his legs off. The fact that there are two trophies that can not be achived if missed the first time, is pretty stupid. Brilliant game, with seriously annoying completion path
Powerpyx has all the missables in their guide now, They didn't when I started but its actually decent now. Also in the description I put a link to a spreadsheet I used, which was super helpful to identify what items and journal entries I was missing.
Level 1 beat the blue big head before the secret boss gold big head Level 2 kill the little rat before the bigger rate during the 1 vs 2 bosses fight, and talk to the talking wall in the first village for the 2 headed rate transformation in Level 3 later Level 3 kill the 9 long neck thing during the music change in that tower, there are 4 in level 1, 4 in level 3 and 1 in level 5, they spawn in specific areas and don’t spawn randomly and won’t respawn after you kill one for a lantern accessory. And after talking to the boar after the turtle unloads you, go beat the bat boss near the large snake bones near the beach, for an accessory and a spirit that only obtainable that specific moment Level 4 use light attacks to chop off 4 hands off the 8 handed boss near the first save point after getting into the cave for an arm piece, in secret area beat the Taoist boss and the scorpion boss before the corrupted chicken secret boss, finish the 4 purple seal quest before the final boss, and talk to the horse man in level 1-4 before proceeding to level 5 Some extra tiles try to pick up a plant tree fruit whenever u see them and kill every type of enemy you encounter will save you from a lot grinding later You should be missing 2 or 3 (I don’t remember ) last entries in the log before new game+ if you have done thing correctly and new game + should unlock all entries immediately All armour and all weapons trophies requires NG+ and can be completed in NG+ after u bear the secret boss in level 5, so you can plat in Ng+ level 5 instead of going for NG++ You need 9 orbs from loongs you killed each full game cycle has 5 (4 from secret loong bosses from level 1-4 and 1 from the unmissable loong boss in level 3 for the NG+ weapon and you need to grab 4 crafting items from the secret area in level 5 each cycle (3 from secret boss 1 from the chest short before meeting the secret boss) for all armour No trophy bugs for me and most tedious experience was grinding seeds and some dropped items which could take only minutes or hours depends on your luck, rest of the trophies were fun to obtain. Good luck and happy trophy hunting
I had that same purple barrier over my last talisman too. I killed duskveil, then non void or the void boss the rat orince asks you to acquire his soul before i was able to grab the last talisman. Not exactly sure but i believe their is a way to get it regardless of progression. Even afer i killed the hundred eye i was able to do it

i just entered chapter 5, it is fun to play with friends,, after one or 2 deaths hand over the controller (i do play on pc) and unexpectedly we keep up with each other and basically as it happens now this friend beats a boss, than i do and than another friend, if you can get em together XD maybe start a new journey to get them hooked. some bosses are big hurdles XD some bosses require patience, some require endless dodges others you need to be super agressive since their fases amp up with big steps in difficulty. story is good, gameplay is good, it looks amazing and beating a boss after many tries is very satisfying. with friends on distance we talk about secret bosses or story lines XD all to get more power spells and stats haha
For anyone fighting the stone vangaurd.. the rock with arms he was talkin about at the start of the video the rockrest flat shrine is 10 seconds on the other side of him.. come from the other way … you will never in the entirety of this gane have to walk 17 kilometers everytime you die
you can respect on yellow brow fight, just use the talisman, then after respec you can travel back there, no need to refight
the last boss moveset is just you if you maxed out all talents lol
In Chapter 2, there’s a hidden bug boss where you could beat him and get an item that could block the wind (similar to the one you get in Chapter 1 that could block fire), so when the final boss yellow wind sage does the tornado thing, you could use it and it will be so much easier😂
Man's called the yellow wind sage the first proper boss that he encountered like tiger vanguard doesn't take 3 HOURS!!!
I’m starting chapter 6 now, and by far the hardest boss for me so far was the tiger whos a blacksmith armorer. Taking the spot of the wandering wight, previously. Mainly because of the level in which you fight him.
Yellow Loong was way harder than that boss for me but I know everyone has a different “hardest boss”
@@danielfonville1840 It’s probably a playstyle difference. Yellow long I could keep distance, run around, and charge a heavy to rush in with. Rinse repeat. The tiger armourer, that isn’t happening. He’s on you constantly spamming attacks.
When I’m done, I’ll probably look up how the really good guys deal with him.
Just started this game, only in Chapter 2 but already missed multiple items. I even knew beforehand NOT to beat the Chapter 1 "first secret boss" before the Wandering Wight, so when I got to him I died intentionally, then went back to the Wight and he was gone! You can't even look at the Elder dude and he disappears... So I already missed that.
Just learned that I apparently missed out on Rat Dad's soul bc I didn't kill him before his second son... F'er was up on pillars throwing rocks at me, I was gonna worry about him later..
Absolutely love the game so far, but miss-able items like this and others mentioned in the video aren't good design decisions....
i immediately pressed the subscribe button once u showed the scratcher thing
bro its crazy how little leveling you did on your way up to the yellow wind sage especially after going back to finish all the secret content leading up. i heard from a source online that the yellow wind sage was 3 phases, i read that as 3 separate health bars for some reason and got super intimidated and leveled the shit out of myself after getting my ass kicked by him a couple times.
I heard he was a hard boss but to my surprise, I beat him on the first try 😂 Now I did do every thing else in chapter 2 before I got to him so that probably helped. But I was nervous to fight him for sure. I think playing God of War Ragnarok on the hardest difficulty prepared me some what lol Because I sure as hell don’t play any souls like games 🤷🏻♂️
But it's also a thing, that you have to do the side quest of the yellow wind sages past first. So you can get the item that can block his wind attacks.
For the yellow brow I just used the intense talisman to travel to a shrine so I can change my spells
(It’s in your inventory)
I am gonna be one of the 5 ppl on the planet who is gonna say they loved pagoda realm, I know everyone hates it, but I am soo used to fromsoft welcome to hell levels that this 1 felt better. Like caelid bro I hated that, atleast here while you are in pagoda state as I have come to call it you deal more damage, and for enemies I just spammed lock on the entire way thru, so I knew ahead of time if some1 was about to jump me.
That's awesome man nothing wrong with that. I honestly just struggled with that section 😂
Honestly I felt a Dante's Inferno theme there. The main reason why I didn't hate it
for me it was those bat pig creatures , the most infuriating enemies to deal with
That rock boss in chapter 2 I went right past the tiger boss and came round the other side you get an item that wakens the other rock boss and they fight each other then you only have to fight a rock boss with half heath after one wins. It was a happy accident because the tiger boss kept kicking my arse I gave up
That's actually pretty cool wish I experienced that 😂
@@itsvalzoo yeah it was. I only experienced it because that tiger was stressing me out 🫠
I didn't know there was missable stuff when I started playing this game. Powerpyx hadn't yet updated their trophy guide, so according to them, everything could
be done after the story. No problem! But then they updated their guide, and suddenly there was nothing but missables!
That's when I gave up on the platinum. I mean, the game was fine, but I never want to play through it again. And as it turns out, even if you don't miss anything,
you still need to play through most of the game a second time. So no. Not gonna happen. I usually platinum every game I play, but not this time.
Give it a try at least
you can EASILY get through the game on NG+. The bosses are very easy and it’s a breeze.
@@ryannelson5424 I didn't say it was hard...
To be fair, in the original story Erlang was the only one that could defeat Wukong. There were others that Wukong could not defeat without help, but they didn't bet him either. He tactically retreated to get tools.
Honestly I'd count this as probably one of my favorite game's of all time, so i'm going for the platinum... I've spent hours farming fire bellflowers for seeds WHY ARE THEY SO RARE
I think the 2nd chapter has such an odd difference between players, Tiger Vanguard was my third-to-last boss in that chapter, and Tiger Acolyte was before only the Rat King. I didn't die more than 5 times on any of them
Beat the game earlier today, but just need to unlock the true ending. I am not going for platinum though. 1, I don't have the patience, and 2 I missed a missable curio so I would have to start ng+ and go all the way to chapter 3 to get it. And I am NOT reliving the hell that is that prison!
There are a decent amount of missable trophies but i feel most of them you stumple opon just by exploring a little bit
yeah most of them you could just stumble upon...others, you can completely lock for your current playthrough and need NG+ for
Other than 5 hours wasted farming the bloody thunderflame seal and tiger tendon belt, it was an okay platinum.
Games need to drop this mechanic of "rare drop loot" from mobs with less than 1% drop rate.
I can’t count how many times I fall off the bridge. 😭😭😭😭 thought I was the only one.
11:00 i hated that rock boss. I would get pissed off having to run back and getting hit by random mobs and then I would fight him irritated and just get clapped and have to do it again.(I went through the Tiger Temple first in ch 2)
Ngl captain vice wise was the easiest boss to beat the the pagoda realm was so annoying
The oyster thing I missed was king of flowing sand so NG+ it is....
Dude the spider animation in this game was so effective. Like so uncomfortable to look at
102 bosses, that would have been a NO from me dawg..... seriously impressive man
113 bosses
The frequency of them honestly makes it not a problem. You're fighting one every few minutes when you're not trying one multiple times
@@iownall2222this and let be real, most bosses are just glorified buffed up regular enemies. I'd say the ending chapter and the secret areas are the only places with "bosses"
The fact that theres no trophy descriptions was a nightmare for me
I disliked that part tbh at least I can just look it up goobers thought that it was going to do anything saying “secret achievement”
Farm seed plant for platinum is a nightmare 👹
I see that in your 1st play you made it harder for you not using Vessels and Spirits. Also you can teleport frmn YellowBrow arena at any moment before you enter the battle via the inventory teleport to shrine item. When you come back you continue the fight from the phase you left off.
If a boss like erlang is throwing a million projectiles at you use STAFF SPIN. It will max out focus
Wow I never thought of this lol. I wasn’t using staff spin during my gameplay.
U just changed my life.
65 hours to platinum in two runs before chap6 ng+, not nearly as bad as some other games
the only thing that i HATE about this game is it constantly is freezing up and having me reload the game on a ps5!!
Did I miss scorpion lord fight? I was waiting for this one as it was horrendous for me😂
I’m still grinding on lotus every 30 mins to get the brew n seeds………………………..I hate this I already got everything at 54 hours mark but now I’m 56 hours in still no lotus seed in sight 😢
I don’t understand how the bosses can be so different from one player to another. I beat the yellow sage in 4 tries, and the yellow loong in 5, but it took me 3 hours and half to kill that damn king scorpion and u didn’t even mention it
Did you know you could use the tablet to go to a shrine t9 respec durinh yellow brow fight
Just Wanted to write that
Not only yellowbrow, every Boss that only Has a respawn point. The loongs for example in ch1/2 work aswell
I guess nobody told you there is a other way to the stone vanguard with a incense there
i have platinum for all the dark souls games and elden ring but wukong platinum is far more tedious
Really? I guess tedious for sure but do you find Elden Ring harder than Wukong?
@@itsvalzoo i find them both fairly easy I wouldn’t say they’re necessarily hard just have some annoying bosses
honestly brewers bounty was my last one to get and jesus it must have taken me over 6 hours of farming to get the soaks from the liquorice plants and the ginseng ones they really need to sort out the RNG in this game for other people cause it was a joke
for context i have been on kang jin loong for about 3 hours now
and if i beat the boss and it the game crashed and sent me back before i beat it...
the game would be uninstalled
ggs for the commitmnet
Can’t wait for the dlc
"If you're stuck just move on" what if it's the final boss and can't beat him 😂?
Got Platinum yesterday after ~85hrs at level 225. Had to go to end of chapter 5 in NG+. I really miss a statistics page in the game. I'd like to see how many deaths i had and at which boss.
Just know I got to the boss with the hand as a head and was distracted by my wife when they gave me nimbus so I just jumped off the cliff and died. When I respawned I was in the arena where you face the boss with the red hand as a head and could not use the nimbus spell. I was stuck tried everything and couldn’t get out of that arena. Had to start the game all over again. 💔
wow that must have been hard. Did you try shrine talisman?
@@NovelVampire tried everything just kept respawning at the shrine without being able to use the nimbus spell even tho I had the option to, it just didn’t work. Even tried to jump on the chains to see if I can somehow get to a point where I can access the Nimbus
@@Joelado54 oh I probably feel bad to tell you this knowing it will drive you insane, but you know you can simply copy one of the hourly backup save files on your steam folder.
@@NovelVampire problem is I play on ps5 and for some reason PlayStation decided to have the saves overwrite each other.
@@Joelado54 ah damn, bad luck, this must have been a rare bug
The rock boss was next to another shrine 🤣
i just got it, took 4 ng+ for me haha
Have to start a 3rd play through for venomous arm guards. Kill me.
had to playthrough 3 times to get platinum, because kept accidently killing the spider boss before breaking his legs off. The fact that there are two trophies that can not be achived if missed the first time, is pretty stupid. Brilliant game, with seriously annoying completion path
okay so you can finish the game and then go to erlang? awesome. im super stuck on this guy..
Hell yeah
can you make a tldr on the missables? I feel like guides are missing something and I cba to play all the way through again.
Powerpyx has all the missables in their guide now, They didn't when I started but its actually decent now. Also in the description I put a link to a spreadsheet I used, which was super helpful to identify what items and journal entries I was missing.
Level 1 beat the blue big head before the secret boss gold big head
Level 2 kill the little rat before the bigger rate during the 1 vs 2 bosses fight, and talk to the talking wall in the first village for the 2 headed rate transformation in Level 3 later
Level 3 kill the 9 long neck thing during the music change in that tower, there are 4 in level 1, 4 in level 3 and 1 in level 5, they spawn in specific areas and don’t spawn randomly and won’t respawn after you kill one for a lantern accessory. And after talking to the boar after the turtle unloads you, go beat the bat boss near the large snake bones near the beach, for an accessory and a spirit that only obtainable that specific moment
Level 4 use light attacks to chop off 4 hands off the 8 handed boss near the first save point after getting into the cave for an arm piece, in secret area beat the Taoist boss and the scorpion boss before the corrupted chicken secret boss, finish the 4 purple seal quest before the final boss, and talk to the horse man in level 1-4 before proceeding to level 5
Some extra tiles try to pick up a plant tree fruit whenever u see them and kill every type of enemy you encounter will save you from a lot grinding later
You should be missing 2 or 3 (I don’t remember ) last entries in the log before new game+ if you have done thing correctly and new game + should unlock all entries immediately
All armour and all weapons trophies requires NG+ and can be completed in NG+ after u bear the secret boss in level 5, so you can plat in Ng+ level 5 instead of going for NG++
You need 9 orbs from loongs you killed each full game cycle has 5 (4 from secret loong bosses from level 1-4 and 1 from the unmissable loong boss in level 3 for the NG+ weapon and you need to grab 4 crafting items from the secret area in level 5 each cycle (3 from secret boss 1 from the chest short before meeting the secret boss) for all armour
No trophy bugs for me and most tedious experience was grinding seeds and some dropped items which could take only minutes or hours depends on your luck, rest of the trophies were fun to obtain.
Good luck and happy trophy hunting
Bro just wrote a whole novel for you^
I had that same purple barrier over my last talisman too. I killed duskveil, then non void or the void boss the rat orince asks you to acquire his soul before i was able to grab the last talisman. Not exactly sure but i believe their is a way to get it regardless of progression. Even afer i killed the hundred eye i was able to do it
erlang definitely wasnt easy. took me atleast 5 or 6 tries to beat the guy
The Tender Jade Lotus soak took me 3 days to get that 🤬
Me and my dad got the platinum (yes my dad is a gamer). Idk how many hours it took but its our 3rd plat on the ps5. (Im not tryna flex)
you still missing the wukong stance...😂
