"selftext": "Not sure if I'm allowed to post a link to guides, but I just posted an Aeterna Noctis walkthrough on gamefaqs about a week ago. Even if you've already finished the game, I'd actually love some feedback. The Aeterna Noctis boards on gamefaqs are dead, lol. \n\nI know I should probably add a section that just highlights each individual quest, or a trophy section, or something, but I forgot just how long AN is. Once I finished the walkthrough, I was kind of burnt out. >.< Maybe I'll do that later. Anyways, let me know what you think!\n\n[https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/ps5/320842-aeterna-noctis/faqs](https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/ps5/320842-aeterna-noctis/faqs)",

"body": "Duuuuuude that’s awesome!!! All I had to do was check the dream kingdom portion to know it was quality work. I really appreciate your dedication!"
},
{
"body": "Having more quality resources is always good.\n\nCouple notes on the first Devourer fight I noticed: \nHe doesn't have to start with platforms; he can start with any attack. \nIn the spiral phase, the tails of the projectiles don't hurt you. This actually makes it the biggest opportunity for you to do damage just occasionally doing a tiny hop over a projectile before it hits you."

{
"body": "A fantastic, thorough and well-needed guide for a fantastic, thorough and well-needed game.\n\nKudos."
},
{
"body": "Greetings! First of all, congrats! This is meticulous and detailed work is amazing and will help a lot of users :)\n\nWe love to see players so committed to our game. Without a doubt, this guide that you have made is an entire encyclopedia on Aeterna Noctis. Thank you very much for sharing it with all of us!"
},
{
"body": "I’ve been dying for a solid text guide. Finally! Thank you"
},
{
"body": "Thanks for all the kind words! Even one of the developers left a comment? I'm honored. \n\nTo Mekire, who made some suggestions on the Devourer fight, I realize the clip I inserted was pretty rough, but I kind of just have to take the first run where I actually kill the boss. I guess I could have made backup saves and gone for a cleaner boss fight, but I figured people would get the gist. Thanks for the suggestion though. \n\nAnyways, enjoy the guide. If I missed any collectibles, let me know. I have a 100% file, but I could have easily just forgot to insert a screenshot or something."

{
"body": "Wow, you're right, I don't think I have a section where I say exactly where he is. I know there are a few lines buried in there where I say to go back to him to unlock purple gems, but those are hard to find. Well, that's something to update, thanks. \n\nTo answer your question, he's in the Forge, in the area to the lower left (Elder Forge - Western Corridor). As soon as you drop in here from the room above, just keep going down and ignore that first little passageway going to the left. He'll be down there, provided you've already finished the Forge section."

{
"body": "Thanks! I appreciate that. I hardly ever visit reddit, so I just saw this post; sorry about that. I hope you've made some good progress on the game, or maybe finished it? Anyways, it's good to hear that the guide's being used. :D",

{
"body": "Wow this is really good, such a beautiful abandoned game and such an intricate mostly ignored walkthrough are both as depressing as they are great."
},
{
"body": "Hey there,\n\nLove this guide, it has helped me a lot. I have a question if you don't mind. Do you know how to get the vampire red gem in the palace on Aeterna mode? All of the videos on youtube are for Noctis, and Aeterna mode treats the final corridor slightly differently. I can attach a picture if that would help.",
"replies": [
{
"body": "I figured it out. In case anyone needs to know in the future, you shoot your blue arrow through the spike corridor, then cross the platform above to get closer to it, and then teleport to it. You had to do something similar to get the trial door 10 key."

"body": "Thank you Hamster_Bear / Monistic_Turtle. Your efforts are truly appreciated.\n\nI returned to this game after losing my 90% complete save to crash/corruption last year. Started fresh last week and I just got 100% and Platinum a few minutes ago.\n\nYour guide made the experience so much faster and easier is time around. There's still a few spelling/direction mistakes in the guide but nothing too major. Thank you again for all your hard work. 🙏"
},
{
"body": "Hi and thank you very much !!\n\nMay I ask you 2-3 questions please ?\nyour estimation of how many hours for the platinum ?\nMultiple runs required ?\nAny missable trophies ??\n\nWould be great !! But thank you again for your guide !!",
"replies": [
{
"body": "You're welcome! Thanks for using it. :)\n\nI haven't played it in a while, but there are no missable trophies and one run is all that's required. It is a bit grindy and you will have to finish some tough platforming challenges, but I'd estimate the platinum completion time to be... about 50-60 hrs if you're good and 70-75 if you're struggling. \n\nI do take my time with games though, so you might be able to do it even faster.",
"replies": [
{
"body": "Oh thank you a lot for your complete answer ! 👍👍\nI just bought it and after 2hours I can say that I love it already !! Can already say that it is a great metroidvania ! After ender lilies and Ghost song, it's the third in a row of great metroidvania !! \n\nI usually do a blind run before doing the required additional runs for the Platinum, and it's so cool when no additional runs are required ! ^^\nSo I'll stick with my first blind run but will certainly use your guide for everything that I will have missed! Thus, again, big thx to you for the guide !\n\nCheers"

"body": "Hi there! Thank you so much for the awesome guide.\n\nI have one question. The in-game list says I completed 9 out of 10 trial doors, but I have the individual trophy for all 10.\n\nI did like the video, teleported out of trial 10 as soon as I got the mirror fragment, maybe this is what caused the bug?"

{
"body": "Been using this this week. Such a well made walkthrough. I love how you list everything for each area and it let's us know if we are upgraded enough for it yet. Appreciate your time with this so much"
},
{
"body": "Not clear at all ( at least to a brand new player ) \n\nI clicked on chapter 2 and your map is way more filled than mine. You somehow got to the top of a tower without explaining how or why? \n\n“ Head immediately to your right and … “ - head right from where? Where’s the point of interest? Like a landmark or something? Just go right? Alright, sure. \n\n“ which will lead you to the right, then up and to the left, and then finally right again. “ - like really? Wouldn’t a picture here or something do better? I mean you’re talking about brand new players here lol \n\nMost people here seem to think it’s pretty good but i just have to assume that they’ve already played the game so everything already made sense to them without much detail."
