In the relevant sections of our website, follow other articles on the game: news.
Damn, of course this game is not very friendly to newbies ahahaha I can't get past Sam, well, I have no chance at all, it's a shame, apparently I'll have to wait for some character stronger than mine
You can add to the article that it is not necessary to kill Sam right away, because you can do 2 achievements on him, which can be done on him in the story much easier than mirrors on the 11-12th floor.
What if you don’t go for aventurine?
You can just leave.
What happens if you just walk away and abandon the truth?!?!?
If you leave, there will be a game ending, described in the comments below, after which you will automatically return to the moment of choice. Everyone will go to the holiday and will forever remain in Penaconia. There is really only one choice - to follow him.
What's the next quest? Or is that all for now?
Yes, this is the last quest for patch 2.0. The following Reconstruction missions will only appear in update 2.1.
Well, Mihuyo managed to make me quit this game on the second try. It’s a pity, I like the plot in it, but the difficulty... we’ll wait for a downgrade like in Genshin, if they decide to, of course
This boss didn't let me through either at level 66 of mastering (yes, I'm a crazy person and ed all the tests to increase the difficulty level), at the rerun of Aventurine I had 30 tickets and 36000 jade (well, I just didn't spend them), for 79 spins I pulled out Aventurine, which was solved even without traces and eidolons being level 61
Another disgusting plot quest with disgusting new repulsive characters and a disgusting open ending.. We continue to save up for more adequate characters..
what happens if you refuse Aventurine and Swan and leave the location? there seems to be such a possibility
Hello. If the information found is reliable, then when you try to leave, the screen will turn black and a text will appear on it explaining the situation - what would happen with such a decision. As a result, the KMM conspiracy would have been revealed and everything would have gone “smoothly”, after which, due to taking part in the Harmony Festival, they would have remained forever in the world of dreams. Then they will show the credits and throw it on the menu into the system. When you enter the game, you will again be faced with a choice, as if you had not made it.
Thank you. Indeed, the credits and pseudo-end of the game are like refusing to the express team at the beginning.
Hello. I don’t know if anyone will see my message or not, but I’ll ask anyway. Does anyone know what kind of beautiful and sad track is playing at the moment of the mission “Who is the killer?”, when he appears in the hall and must go left to the elevator?
Hello. It's about the Robin's song "If I Can Stop One Heart From Breaking". If you wish, you can even put it on the phonograph in the general carriage of the star express. But it is at the moment you indicated that it plays instrumental version.
Thank you)) Now I have two of my favorite tracks in XSR. Wildfire and If I Can Stop One Heart From Breaking👍👍👍
My favorite track is the track from the beginning of the game, take the journey
