New Game Plus: have-tos and don't-have-tos
Updated Vouiv596
by You have to:
- obtain the Wooden Bat to progress to the Duri Forest part of the plot
- gain access to Adar's House to get to Misty Gorge
- enter the mayor's palace to progress the plot beyond Atai City
- do everything plot-related from after freeing Lisa to entering Daea prison
- view the cutscene of freeing Thomas to progress to the Prince Tower part of the plot
- obtain the Artifact Shard from Leo to get to Dread Lands
- view the Rocket Boots cutscene to get the Artifact back
You don't have to:
- obtain any items except Wooden Bat, Slingshot, and Artifact (the Bombs and Rocket Boots are absent if you already have them)
- defeat Guard Gauntlet
Also, you cannot defeat the Duri Forest boss with explosives. (Disappointing, I know.)
