One thing to be aware of is the potential for ‘soft-locking’ – a scenario where, even after a condition has been met to unlock something, saving and then loading the game before the unlock has actually taken place leaves the player ‘stuck’. I’ve read accounts of corrupted save games and trigger bugs that prevent an unlock from occurring even when a player has been doing everything just right. The risk is smallest for players of modern games, with patched console versions the lowest risk of all – but for those playing older games on their original hardware, it’s something to be aware of before committing to an unlock-grind of dozens of hours or more. Make a backup of your save file from time to time, perhaps. Better to be safe than stuck.

A lot of the humor in this anime is based in the voice acting. Saki Saki’s voice acting in particular is hilarious. Ayane Sakura perfectly captures the character’s switch from completely calm to completely apocalyptic rage in the span of a millisecond. I would definitely watch a third season of this anime for more of her voice acting, and the rest of the cast is just as funny. It is clear that they are having a good time in the recording booth.

A rather confused paperback purist, here. I thought I'd give digital a try. So I have to pay a monthly subscription fee to read chapters, and I don't even get to own what I'm reading. Occasionally, the latest chapters are an extra charge on top of the subscription fee to read them. Is that really how this works? I'm having a bit of trouble getting my head around this. The books on my bookshelf don't ask for a subscription fee to read a book I've bought in paperback. It's clearly a very complicated library with lots of fine print.

I found a very good video series from a niche channel about this game. It explains step by step how to get every unlock. I made a YouTube search for the Japanese title of the video series. Although it is in Japanese, the video is very clear to follow, as it contains many visual cues, like the menu navigation and the battles themselves. This is much better than just reading a long text explaining the same thing.

I'm hesitant to say that there's nothing hidden in the game. There's a rumor that if you completed Arcade Mode on the hardest difficulty using all the base characters, you'd unlock a special palette swap or even a hidden fighter. I'd almost like for that to be true, but I think we can safely say that there are no secrets of that nature left in the game. The game's files have been datamined and there are no unused character models beyond the DLC characters.
The general consensus seems to be that what you see is what you get unless you pay for additional fighters. I'm trying to imagine if there's some obscure button combination to unlock something on the main title screen. Nope, my feeling is that era of such genuine secrets are long over.

While some aliens are just more fun to unlock than others, some unlockables are just way more fun than others. For example, unlocking Jetray involves a fast-paced, high-adrenaline flying race through canyon rings. But unlocking Nanomech involves a grueling, infuriatingly tiny shooter level taking place within a computer system. Your experience will likely be wildly different from mine.

This is more of an Easter Egg than a full story arc. Wyll needs to be in your party for the interactions with Mizora in the story, and then you can’t break the pact in Act 2. You then free her from capture, and after the Iron Throne and Ansur events in Act 3, you simply take a long rest, and she comes to you. The conversation is straightforward after that.

I picked the Historian ending because the lore of this game is just so damn cool. Getting all 100 stone tablet fragments scattered across the whole world for that ending took a lot of work though. But the ending cutscene where you piece together the history of the isekai world and get to see the real truth was totally worth it for a lore buff like me.

Viewing this from the angle of roleplaying is interesting as well. Neloth is a Telvanni wizard. Telvanni respect power and usefulness above all, including kindness. Thus, to earn Neloth’s respect and approval, you need to demonstrate that you are capable of dealing with the dangers of Nchardak and the complex situation surrounding his late apprentice. He views the Black Book as a mere tool and now sees you as a useful agent, either worthy of his trust or to be tested by him. That ‘unlock’ is purely narrative and thus one of the better examples of how quest design can tie character progression to character relation in Skyrim.

Unfortunately, often the official translation is behind a paywall, but there are fan-made translations on the web. As for me, I do not support piracy, but for those works that have been officially translated years after the original publication, this is a big problem for readers. Some people feel less guilty if they read a fan TL and then buy the official version by the same author to support him or her. This, however, is a morally gray area.
