This wasn't my experience. I did a lot of the base building stuff and that gives you a lot of upgrade credits. I did not do much farming or doing levels over and over.
I started in New Game+, but got to a point where I kind of just realized I didn't want to play these levels again lol, since I replayed them multiple times already so I just looked up the true ending on YouTube
I'm at stage 8 or 9 and haven't replayed a single level, and have just upgraded the bases as I go. I've only died twice so far on a boss and failed a level once, and even that was because I didn't understand the objective of the mission at first
I think unlocking his arrow, the special attack on stunned enemies and the charged special attacks at the end of the combos are super important and quite cheap. The charged attack triangle attack after a combo can stun many/most stronger enemies allowing you to do the special and killing then super fast.
I would also unlock the second, third and fourth talismans so you can equip more stuff and at least the second sword guard. But these are more expensive upgrades (still totally worth it).
I don't use many classes, but I tried to have at least my favorite 2 maxed out and the rest for a specific stage at lvl 3.
You only need to replay for objectives. Some give musubi so are worth it.
I haven't really had to play many and once I screw up an objective. Turned the game off in frustration and when I turned it back on it was at a checkpoint right before so it helped me not to restart all.
Replaying levels is not required at all to beat the game, since you can reset upgrades and redistribute musubi as much as you want, but it is a good idea to repair bases as you go.
I just did the swamp level and that was the first real difficulty spike for me. Even the 3rd boss only took me two attempts.
The flying fuckers that posses your dudes and take them out of action until they die or until sunrise are so punishing, and a few times they got attacked while near the Goddess so their AOE attack chip damaged her to death (since she can't move at night). The soon as they take hold of a villager it seems like you might as well restart the stage, since you're now playing with a man down for the rest of the night.
After about 90 mins of attempts I finally managed to clear it by the skin of my teeth

Sadly I dont think it is. Marvel and Dead Rising had disc release announcements alongside their reveals. This didnt. Thisll more than likely fester like GnG:R and Shinsekai - amazing Capcom games with no physical releases that make me sad ;(
Thanks to this thread for pointing out how the game is super generous with checkpoints. Makes some of these challenges much easier to do. Had a fun time doing one of the "no villagers" stages, helps that I had the bow unlocked... seriously that is well worth unlocking asap. The guarding and counter unlocks are needed for the challenges anyway, but very fun to use. I said it before but I appreciate how the game has solid tower defence AND character action mechanics... except the NEED to rebind the evade action!
Now finally onto the Marsh, lets see how hard I find it...

OK, done the marsh. Its... really not as bad as some made it sound. Id argue your biggest strength and weakness are the fact that its a narrow level (well, in essense) so if you protest Yoshiro with a few archers and matlocks then you have a solid foundation if you also hang back (bonus points if you've also leveled up Soh to have the bow at least).
I then kept a Sumo, spear and axe men, a healer and a dude that slows enemies down up front, keeping the main force from swamping up. The special mine move also helps slow enemies down.
Honestly the real challenge for me was doing a no ration and no Yoshiro damage run together lol. That one took several nightly restarts for sure! It was mainly down to figuring out the exact placement and number of ranged NPCs, as keeping the frontal forces was easy, but you'd also have one SOB sneak in and get a lucky hit. Managed it in the end, just need to do the no toxic swamp now. That'll be pretty easy all things considered.
I think what can definitely make things more challenging though is the fact (as far as I could see), there's no rations to be had in the stage. So that can be a problem. As can losing your healer when doing a no ration run!

There's a sword guard that gives you a move to rez/heal villagers at the cost of Soh dying. Might be useful there.
Good point, I think I remember picking that up. Thanks for reminding me, may well come in handy soon :)
Beating the monsters she summons will make her stop moving, letting you get some tsuba guard/charged hits in to deplete her resist gauge
use as many sorcerers as you can and just chill until they charge their turbo-attack. you should be done in two turbo-attacks
Use sorcerers. Defend until spell ready. Boss dies in 3 spells.

Just got the 1000G.
Highly recommend you clean up your first playthrough before going to NG+ (at least objective wise).
The NG+ specific bonus objectives aren't hard but would be a pain if you try to do them all at once with the original batch. While there isn't much issue doing the two new ones at the same time on the NG+ run
Also looks like the game has an extra 25? Musubi? So you can miss a box or two and still have everyone + Soh maxed out.
Took me about 30 hours

Just tried the demo. I'm amazed by the aesthetic and visuals. It's such a beautiful game but very gamey. Really enjoyed my time with it and will definitely buy this, probably at full price

is this the don't touch the poison? Big thing is to just hold the line with your crew. If you have Sumos, Rifles, and Cannons, they won't get very close.
Biggest thing is to make sure you're going into the stage with the max amount of orbs you can.
You can visit all your completed camps and grab them in the tent. Then fight the first boss and repeat all the camps again until you're full.
yeah as well as don't let her take any damage, i will try again with a more ranged set up 👍

Just use all Mages (Maxed Out), he's a sponge and it's easier to just hit hard with Specials and then Mages. Be sure to get the skill that lets you hit extra when stunned.
The one for infinite health at the pool is useful for the second phase as well.
yea just tuck a bunch of sorcerers somewhere and dodge until they recharge over and over
What an interesting game and a nice surprise. I'm only about 4-5 levels in but it's fun for sure.
Finally finished it!
Not gonna play New Game +, at least not yet
This game was fantastic. I really enjoyed my time with it, despite the busywork it turned into collecting the tributes after the later stages. I read somewhere this is a "remake of a PS2 game that doesn't exist" and yes, it feels like it.
Excellent game, loved it.

I did cheese my way out of the last two stages, a bunch of sorcerers, 7 or 8, just recharge faster than enemies respawned. The last boss? charging arrow, dodge and run a lot, critical hits. It was pretty easy, but I do think that's sort of a cheese. I read about some electrical attack I never really saw? Maybe it was another boss.
Excellent game, loved it.

I find their range is super useful as they can be placed near the Goddess and they'll b-line anything coming towards her and hold them up
Yup. I find them great likewise to basically distract oncoming enemies, and upgraded they are quite the powerhouse as well. I usually like to rock at least 1 Sumo per level.
Keep a Sumo in front of your villagers, with enough space between them, that way he will attract all the bomb attacks.
I got hit 3 times trying to beat the centipede without getting hit in the boss rush.
And the extra Musubi is weird. I had 0 at the end, having upgraded all the roles and obtained all skills.
Ahhh I see! I'll try upgrading it a bit then using them to run interference
Managed to clear the Bamboo Forest this morning. Really gorgeous place once you rid it of Seeth! Not looking forward to the challenge of destroying all pots though, its a pretty twisty turny level, will be tricky to find them all but Im sure its easier than Im making it out to be!
Just finished the marsh, one thing I really love about this game is the chillout phase when you go back to villages and restore the
There's something really nice about seeing the areas you had to push inch by inch through enemies and corruption, only you can restore them and see the villagers living in peace
Not really sure what the point of getting or setting snacks is, except once I saw the priestess eating one once

I think the snacks are just a pointless bonus, but also a fun way to show off food in videogames again. The descriptions make me hungry lol.
And yeah, the chill out portions really do help space you out from the fights. Its a nice way to power up getting more Musubi, but also just a weirdly calming few minutes before you dive into the thick of it again!
She does eat them and they all have bespoke animations, you just need to hang around for a bit to see them! They're just there to be cute afaik.
