[Trails through Daybreak] Chapter 3: Capriccio in Tharbad (October 3rd) | 100% Playthrough
2► Playlist: • Trails through Daybreak | Kuro no Kis...
Full playthrough of the PC version of Trails through Daybreak/Kuro no Kiseki. This video covers the events of the first day, October 3rd, of Chapter 3: Pleasure in Delirium.
After a —longer than intended— break, the Daybreak playthrough is back! But in video format rather than as a livestream. My original plan of streaming the full game didn't really work out and it's important to acknowledge my own shortcomings, which in this case are my inability to provide much commentary and since I'm not used to streaming/playing for such long sessions on my own, in the end I wasn't enjoying the experience as much as I wanted to.
Still, I want to finish what I started and while this approach will be more time-consuming compared to streaming, between recording and doing some editing to cut down most of the loading times, I feel it's appropiate given what my goal for this playthrough is (even if the sheer length of the video may not be the most viewer-friendly). I'm still finding my footing for this project and of course I'm open to your feedback.
For those that join for the first time, the flow of these videos will be as follows: exploring all areas available (talking to NPCs and shopping) → completing all 4SPGs available → watching Connect Events and movies, if there are any → advancing the main story → repeat during nighttime sections.
The timestamps down below cover the most relevant moments so you can quickly check a specific section, and I've also included additional comments to explain a few things.
Thanks for watching!

🠚 Beginning: 0:00
🠚 Old Town: 16:56
🠚 Riverside: 30:07
🠚 Station Street: 40:31
There's new armor and footwear available at Thunders but what you can buy on October 5th has better stats.
🠚 Tyrell District: 54:16
🠚 Seiden District: 1:09:27
The Elleland Boutique also sells gendered armor/footwear but it's recommended to ignore it until the Final Chapter, when they're the best in the game.

🠚 4SPG - Change of Heart: 1:31:19
🠚 4SGP - A Lost Lover: 1:47:40
To be honest, I don't like the outcome if you choose to lie... but I need those Chaos points. Sorry Amy.

🠚 Boss - Iglis Launa: 2:59:03
🠚 Battle - Forest Garm: 3:08:06
The first fight features 8 wolves so you can easily set up an Octuple Kill for the Achievement if you don't have it yet. As usual, hit as many Garms as possible with Feri's Aerial Dust for a high Chained Hits counter and then use Aaron's S-Craft to defeat them all.
🠚 Meeting Nina & Fie: 3:13:55
🠚 Agnès' family situation & A new business trip: 3:19:58
🠚 Nighttime - Old Town: 3:36:30
🠚 Nighttime - Riverside: 3:47:08
🠚 Nighttime - Station Street: 3:53:29
🠚 Nighttime - Tyrell District: 4:05:30
Cinema Esprit is the only location available.
🠚 Nighttime - Seiden District: 4:09:34
🠚 4SPG - Lost and Found: 4:17:06
Since fast travel is disabled during this quest and the enemies are the same as in the Prologue, it's a very good opportunity to work on Achievements related to Field Battles, defeating x number of enemies, landing Preemptive Strikes, etc.
🠚 Boss - Regina Geist: 4:25:29
Very annoying boss! I've always had issues trying to hit it and this playthrough isn't an exception. Equipping a Hit Quartz or relying a bit more on Arts than physical attacks are both good ideas.
In addition, Regina Geist can easily inflict Fear, draining your CP and making you unable to act. A good way to counter this status ailment (if you don't have an accessory to prevent it, as is my case) is by using Van's Heated Roar twice because even if it triggers, it has 0 Delay and you'll have a turn right away, giving you another chance to cleanse it.
🠚 Connect Event - Aaron I: 4:33:51
🠚 Movie - Sober Curious: 4:39:48
🠚 Tea party invitation: 4:43:47
