Not very sexy. If you try to angle the camera to look at the rear end 2B turn around and takes away your camera control

Do you guys know approximately what % of completion you can get the side quests to during the second playthrough? I'm just under 70 but I've done everything on the map.

okay I feel a lot better now cause I was able to fish up some guys using the lures I could buy in town and eventually thought "there's no way they would make it this difficult" and looked at the map...thank you :)

it's not a pic of a fish it's a big red X same as every quest marker but this quest was made to feel more open ended...so you talk the quest from an old man who says to you "it's real easy to do, take this fishing rod and go fish at the beach" and there's a beach *literally* 4 feet away from where he is standing when he says this to you so you just go try it there but it turns out that's not the place!

If they slightly chnaged the dialogue to say "go fish at the beach outside of town" or something I'd have gone right to it....I'm not too beaten up about it cause I did figure it out on my own :hehe:

I just beat every serious ending in the game. I don't know if I'm going to be able to sleep. This is one of the best games I've ever played.

I am so glad I decided to play through Nier before playing this. Walking into the Library was major feels gaming.

Awesome. The only thing I wish this game had was an item encyclopedia because I'll have like 2/3 of an upgrade item and have no clue where I found it because I constantly pick up stuff

Just got Ending A last night, started Route B and immediately got Ending G on accident, which was hilarious. Then I had to redo the slow robot opening of B again, which was double hilarious.

I think they're enemy based but the stuff you get from forage points are definitely location based.
