Trophy Playthrough ~ "Castle Guide" (Under 2 Hour)
- Finally played this gem since it was free on PSN+! Here is my trophy guide (not like it matters since it is so old) on how I did my 2 hour run.
Notes:
- You will see some sections being reloaded because I was figuring out the fastest pathway I can figure out and stuff, but everything is consistent.
- All possible cutscenes are skipped as it adds to the speed-run time. Ending is the only exception as you are forced to watch it (and it does add to your time too, gah).
{GUIDE}
01) Old Bridge [00:00:00 ~ 00:05:42]
Total Time: 00:05:03
02) Old Bridge to Crane [00:05:42 ~ 00:11:50]
Total Time: 00:10:33
You can bypass lots of stuff here with that drawbridge at the crane.
03) Crane to Graveyard [00:11:50 ~ 00:18:35]
Total Time: 00:16:26
Nothing hard as you should've done this on your first or second gameplay. Ignore and avoid all enemies. Graveyard is where the hard stuff happens!
04) Graveyard to Windmill [00:18:35 ~ 00:26:09]
Total Time: 00:23:27
This part is a little tricky. Do not let her go down the stairs completely or you'll trigger the shadows to show up. Don't worry if she gets caught while you're inside, as long you can get the block from the second floor down for the switch than you'll be ok, just save her asap.
05) Windmill to Stone Pillar [00:26:09 ~ 00:32:45]
Total Time: 00:29:45
The trick here is to put waifu under the ceiling where the chain connects. This will block the flying shadows from swooping down to grab her. When you jump into the sewers, make sure you call AFTER hitting the switch and running down the tunnel (otherwise she may act stupid and run against the wall, allowing the shadow to kidnap her).
06) Stone Pillar to East Arena Start [00:32:45 ~ 00:38:41]
Total Time: 00:35:09
07) East Arena Start to East Arena End [00:38:41 ~ 00:48:18]
Total Time: 00:43:46
Keep her in previous rooms to avoid the "triggered" shadows fights.
08) East Arena End to Gondola [00:48:18 ~ 01:05:32]
Total Time: 00:59:53
09) Gondola to Water Tower [01:05:32 ~ 01:09:10]
Total Time: 01:03:51
10) Water Tower to West Idol Stairs [01:09:10 ~ 01:17:12]
Total Time: 01:10:32
11) West Idol Stairs to Main Gate [01:17:12 ~ 01:29:22]
Total Time: 01:21:18
This is the last save, so from here it is all up to your luck and skills (especially the Multi-Shadow battle).
