As usual, I include random encounters because they are part of the game and the experience one would have playing it.
Please note that this is segmented and edited.
Notes
Yes, I did mess up and forget to assign a Faerie to hunt. It really doesn’t matter, though.
Agility is obviously the most important stat in this game with it giving you extra turns, especially with a 3 person party limit.
Get out of my party, Garr. Reee.
In Tidal Caves, the water has a seemingly random chance of raising and lowering after every encounter. In one of my practice runs, I was able to get all the way down to the Hawk Ring before the water moved. The game appears to roll its RNG whenever and only when a battle starts as I was able to continually reproduce specific results, such as random encounter triggers via save states but the encounters would play out differently every time.
The pacing of this game becomes really quite awful after the time skip.
The Shisu quest might be the single worst required segment of any JRPG I’ve ever played. There is an edit for the fishing part as you need a mackerel 68cm or larger to get the best reward and this took 15 minutes. There’s no real trick to it, just catch mackerel over and over again until RNG blesses you. The TEC stuff for fishing is unnecessary, just drag the line over the silhouettes.
Exact recipe used is:
Mackerel 68cm or larger.
15 seeds
4 vinegar
7 horseradish
Knead twice.
There are also edits during the Black Ship section when using the crane. It takes about 10 minutes to collect all of the items in the room and all the while, you’re stuck listening to the awful sound the crane makes.
