You say colour achievements are default while playing but red didn't pop up for me. I tried to repeat the first chapter and don't press any control while on the hand but nothing. Any advice? May be a bug on Android?
That is really strange..Red should have popped up after you beat chapter 1. Each colour achievement should pop once you have finished each chapter so that must be a glitch of some sort. Maybe you were in offline mode when you reached that point or something? Normally if you were on Steam I would suggest "checking integrity of game files" since that usually applies achievements you should have received. I'm not sure if any method like that exists on android though. BUT at the end of the day, if you had replay to get it, luckily it is only chapter 1 you would have to redo!
You might have to time your jump closer to the bird! I had trouble too at times if I made a movement away too soon, I wouldn't catch enough air it seemed
1:08:00 I personally found enjoyable success with putting the Rage belt on the Hunter. My understanding was for the Monk, you wanted to focus on using his AP skills to want that crit damage more, and the Rage belt doesn't help with that. BUT, once the hunter gains the back party ability to always fire an arrow, the rage belt DOES trigger, and I found it almost always rolled successfully with every arrow, while I spent time cycling between the Monk, Priest, and Mage; the Monk for that raised attack switching in and out between turns, the priest (with Lucky coat) for shields and healing or sucking away HP while healing when in the back row, and the Mage to keep meditating for full AP before using the big attacks (The Mage's "Burn all AP" loadout is definitely the best and I'd argue mandatory, especially with Heat laser, add Dragon's Fury and/or Magic Echo and the incredible damage is what really helps to deal with werewolves and demon guards; that said, still have to know what you're doing when facing Werewolves! lol)
So true! Admittedly, I didn't get too creative with my builds haha, I just used what I was having the most success with! I do really like your suggestion for a rage belt on the Hunter though, im surprised I didn't think of it! I think it's because early game I just rely on the Monk to blast through stuff and then later it's all about the Mage. I appreciate the enthusiasm of different builds though cause honestly Earth Born is so fun! P.s. if you're playing the DLC let me know if you want a bit of a secret. I won't say it in the comments without permission because its a wonderful easter egg so I'll be vague about it ;) let me know
@@Momonocle i have been blasting through the DLC (and I use that term literally, i think I optimized my days too much and ruined the pacing of the DLC a good bit) finished the story and trying to for 100%. I assume the secret is not about the dev room, but it would be nice to know what the secret is, there's not alot of guides or posts out yet about the DLC!
Nope you got it! I hope everyone finds it because I loved it! Since we were talking about Earth Born I just wanted to make sure you had a hint to see it! I also blasted through and optimized my playing, but I intend to possibly start another file and approach things a little differently.
@@Momonocle the sneaky part of the secret for me was not realizing there was a light switch right by the door on the south wall; that makes it ALOT more appreciable to see everything than wandering blindly in the dark with just the monitors turned on from the button.
@@ojhat yesss! Haha I was like "Where AM I?" when I got there. I do believe people will miss it though, so I plan to make a basic tips & tricks guide for the dlc for fun. It's simple enough to figure out but for someone is approaching things casually they might miss some things!
I stumbled upon this gem of a game just the other day and fell in love with it right before the DLC drops so I'm killing time by 100%ing the game, and having such a comprehensive guide is gonna be so unbelievably helpful - you're a real one for your efforts, even if not everyone in the world acknowledges you for your work the people who do care a lot. Big thanks to you brother 🙏
Thank you so much for the kind comment! It really means a lot. I'm glad you appreciated the guide too at it helps you enjoy Eastward that much more! I'll be releasing videos on the Octopia DLC shortly here!
@@Momonocle thanks for responding so quick. There were a lot of chests in that time gap that I haven't reached that part yet. Thanks for this guide I'm knocking down the achievements before it leaves gamepass
I seen a video for the battle with the Gull swordsman in earthborn Upon his defeat You'll get around 300 xp and get a new weapon for the knight called the master sword. (Obviously a reference to the master sword in the legend of zelda series) The sword also has a shield with it to increase defense. The master sword increases your knights attack power by 40 points and your knights defense by 30 points
That's pretty insane, I don't know how someone would have enough resources by the end to defeat him though. Unless he doesn't have as much HP as I initially thought. But he hits like a TRUCK, so it just felt like a bad idea to try to take him on any time I encountered him.
I feel your pain, it really took forever to get all the pixballs. Imagine getting most of them and resetting unknowingly by chapter selecting....big sad :(
Oh god in heaven im so fucking glad people STILL talk about this game. I still haven’t gotten over my first playthrough but im thinking of replaying it soon. Thanks for this! Instant subscription 💙
It deserves so much attention! I will definitely be covering the new DLC! The only thing Eastward ever needed was farming sim addition! Thank you for the sub!
I got Gris this week, it has been in my Wishlist for ages but I knew I wanted a new minimalist emotional Story game and Gris definitely didn't disappoint. It is such a heart-wrenching game. I managed to find all the secrets in my first run except for a few Stage achievements and one momento (the stage 5 waterfall tree jumping one). Thanks to your video I managed to find this missing momento and the few stage achievements and also found out about the secret cutscene and how to get to it. Thank you so much for the video guide. I loved your interpretation of the Queen + Princess and there Fallen Kingdom and I have a similar take but that the Kingdom you are running around and effecting in such major ways with colour palette changes and new paths opening as you work through and learn the stage of grief are all suggestive that this is a kingdom in the Princess' mind, they are her memories of her mother and her trying to work through the emptiness that she has been left with after the Queens passing. Confronting these memories if painful and causes her anger which then creates the monster in her mind which she tries to live with but falls into depression and then eventually overcomes with her acceptance that although her Mother is gone that she will see her again among the stars and in the hidden kingdoms in the world of her own mind as long as she doesn't let grief win. (I haven't figured out how Cubert figures into this whole theory) unless the whole apples thing is a reference to that he represents a doctor and so is maybe her therapist that gives her the path to realising that she should just accept that it's too painful to think about her mother. Anyway that went on a bit of a tangent, Thank you for the video ^.^
Love your interpretation of this! I definitely think that it is an "imagined" landscape more than a literal one as you pointed out. Perhaps we can imagine the kingdom flourishing again some day, repaired from is broken state with the grief being overcome in this story.
Great guide! Two question, want to make sure I don't miss anything: 1) Can I back track in each Chapter as long as I'm in that Chapter or will I miss chests if I leave a dungeon without collecting a specific chest? 2) Should I save all ingredients for cooking until the end of the game? How many of each ingredient should I buy from the stores? I don't want to be short of an item when I reach end game. Thank you!
So sorry I got to this so late, you may have solved these questions already but I will still respond! 1) You usually cannot backtrack, definitely get everything in the dungeon while you're there 2) I would suggest buying a surplus and cooking still when you can for healing purposes. Usually I bought a surplus of 3 items, and kept 3 for cooking at the very least. I would just keep tons of surplus and try to keep your cooking only to items that show up everywhere in the game, leave the exclusive food items until the end. Again apologies for not responding for half a year!
You don't know how many times I restarted my game to have it "perfect" xd, until I found your guide, excellent :D EDIT 1: I just finished the game and I feel an incredible emptiness...
Hmmmm hard to say, I want to say with the inclusion of Earthborn in that...probably about 20-30 hrs? The big thing this hinges on is getting enough tokens for getting all the pixballs! My perspective is a bit skewed, cause making the guide took about 60 hrs of gameplay but thats due to combing through the world for everything!
I've seen a few people play this game and yet, I even discovered some things I totally didn't know about. Granted, most of it were secret chest areas, but it was still pretty awesome. Eastward is so small, yet so huge and I love it. Thank you for making this, it was a really fun watch!
I appreciate you watching! I agree, somehow they managed to create such an interesting and expansive world while also being going forced to spend little time in these areas cause of the antagonists in the game :( it's an interesting way to explore and forces you to "appreciate places while you're there"
@@Momonocle I think I liked the idea of spending short moments in each area. Each area was treated with so much effort and care that it made you long for more and that's what you hope for in a game. I really do hope we get a sequel, spinoff or even prequel; I crave more! XD
Thanks Bro! In another theme... I love this game, that's why I'm trying to get all the achievements. However, the only one missing is the one with the treasure chests, I already have all of them, the 101 chests. I already passed the game 2 more times, I have not skipped any, and still the account does not go up from 99 chests. I love the game, but this already has me pissed off. Does anyone know how to fix it? Or if I should go back... pass it :c
Hmmmm chests are definitely tricky. I can safely say I went through the game 4 times before getting them all! I would just be really thorough with the guide...otherwise my only advice is to make sure you get all the hearts maybe? I dont think its a glitch but what system are you on?
@@Momonocle I'm on PC (Steam), I've already seen 2 more chests advance, but now the counter shows 102, and I don't know which one is missing, although I suspect it may be in ester city, since the chest next to of the hotel next to the robot that sells tokens is invisible to me and I don't know if it's open or closed (I suspect it's closed) since the chest machine doesn't make a sound.
Hmmmm so odd...perhaps its a bug or something is reseting your progress due to using the chapter select? I've found chapter select sometimes messes with your progess 😵💫
You've probably heard this a few times, but I've recently finished my play through of Eastward and wanted to get all the achievements. I love how organized your video is, it's helped me a lot. Thank you.
