WORK IN PROGRESS
Backup your savesThis guide is a work in progress built up from reading tons of the wiki that needs to be polished by me actually playing the game.
Make save backups when you are uncertain, if a section does not have screenshots its guaranteed I have not reached that point of the game yet.
Hell I am uploading it during a break from work to make it readily available lol
SpoilersEvidently there are untagged spoilers right now, proceed at your own risk
Self esteem boosterAlso, remember to give it a thumbs up and favorite if it helped you, I need that stuff for self validation :)
BestiaryAt the moment as it has been brought up to me, the bestiary numbers are most likely wrong as other versions of the game have more monsters.
