It's also neat that you've been swapping characters increasingly frequently in the run up to the boss so it's the natural culmination of that instead of a new gimmick introduced solely for the bossfight.

Yeah, I really loved that about it. Routes A and B are just the very slow start to the swaps.

I AM THE ONLY ONE IN THIS GAME WHO GETS LAID
I finally finished all the good endings and I couldn't be mad at the final final ending. I wasn't planning on 100%'ing the game, got a good deal of stuff done, and actually felt good with how it deleted everything. That was my first Yoko Taro joint and I fully enjoyed every part of it.

Now I can go back and read all these black boxes finally!

This is a cool site for lore questions and the follow-up written fiction, best appreciated after you beat the game.

I somehow got that trophy in the space station corridors or one of the rooms, a location you explicitly can’t control the camera. I have the screenshot. You can’t prove otherwise.

It's pretty weird how you can get an achievement for seeing 2b's panties, something that's literally impossible to avoid.

Does the trophy still trigger if you self destruct her clothes off first?

Unless your specific thing is looking up fictional skirts then surely that's the better stealthy play anyway for the aspiring robot perv.

Well it does trigger but you still have to do the camera movement, it's actually specifically triggering the check in the game for 2B to move out of view and force the camera to reset. It activates in weird places because that particular check for camera orientation is probably always running even in places where you cannot change the angle. You also can get it from climbing ladders quite easily.

9S's version requires you to self destruct his clothes though, not that he minds.

I finally played this game and drat it was real good.

Does anyone have any tips for beating the second Emil fight? It is loving me right up and when I google it seems like all the tips are for either the first fight (which I din't find all that difficult) or how to access the fight in the first place.

Kibayasu

If you can beat the cave fight then you shouldn't have much trouble with the second fight in the desert. You just sort of dodge around and hit whatever you can, whenever you can. What's giving you trouble?

Kuno
Nov 4, 2008
Maybe I'm just being impatient I dunno. Fight starts off easy enough but once I've killed a few heads they seem to start spamming lasers all the time. The first fight was super predictable. Just stand next to the boss to bait the sweep, punish, repeat. This version just seems very unpredictable.

I don't suppose I am missing something but when you kill the heads they don't actually go away right?

Edit: Just took another go at it this morning and did it fine. Either I was just tired last night or rng was being cruel

You did a super job wrapping things up! And I'm not just saying that because I have to!

If anyone judges you for looking up the skirt, they are free to play the game themselves and try not to do it

I just brought the achievement after beating the game a second time. I got the short shorts achievement legitimately but that was a lot easier to get and felt a lot less questionable.

I'm not sure I'd call staring at the 15 year old boy's rear end "less questionable" than staring at the 20 year old girl's rear end.

You don't have to stare at it though. You just have to blow up his outfit and then just keep on playing the game.

Also the short shorts aren’t much of a change to 9S normal clothing, the same cannot be said of 2B losing her skirt to just be in her leotard.

Fishing is super optional but it can be a good source of money. Just drop the lure and wait till it sinks.

You should try fishing on the coast (once you get there). You might catch something unusual with patience.

If you want to 100% fishing you’re likely to go mad but it’s worth it to fish at least a few times in distinctive areas or water bodies. Basically if there’s visible water you can probably fish there from somewhere, even if you’re a hundred feet above the water.

Edit: And yeah, fish on the coastal area a few times. You’ll know what you’re looking for when you find it.

Smirking_Serpent

for tips I would say save often (duh) and know that you can always reload a save to get your chips back easy. You don't have to do a corpse run unless you feel like it or haven't saved.

assuming you're playing on normal, it's generally going to be pretty chill. You can very easily get good chips that make you very powerful. You can always play around to make yourself more vulnerable. I've heard a lot of people say normal is too easy but hard is too hard.

You'll get a chance to replay and revisit everything, so don't freak out about missing something. There's one minor exception when you fight the optional superboss so just come back here when you're a lot further along.

And as long as you’re fishing, make sure to fish in the sewer, too. Something fun hidden there. Didn’t take too long to find, it there may be some RNG.

Thanks all. I'm definitely going to fish a lot, I doubt I'll 100% the game though.

I can hear you
Got ending A after playing all weekend and the game crashes to desktop whenever it tries to do the post-credits save. Googling around it looks like the only way anyone had of solving it is playing the game from scratch again but I'm not particularly enthusiastic about redoing those 18 hours right now. Anyone have this happen and have any solutions?
