yes. yes. you really can't miss it since (slight spoilers)
the game will keep sending you back to the same loop before the final dungeon every time you beat the game, where you do the stuff that gets you the true ending
300 quests is tedious as hell and i still don't have 10k kills.
Question: That "find the hat" sidequest stopped at 50% a while ago and I'm in chapter 4 now. Does it ever start back up again, or is there something with it that I'm missing?

I was about to ask the same question. Apparently there are a few quests like that where they don't give you directions on what to do next then the next step becomes available as you progress through the story.
Received my copy of the game a couple days earlier and played it straight through out the day. @,@, onto the next part of the game and to the platinum.. So I finally got the "true" ending! Those post game bosses were extremely difficult, especially compared to the rest of the game. Imagine if the rest of the bosses in the game were like that. It shows Gust DOES know how to make difficult bosses but for some reason chose not to for the majority of the game! I
Just picked this up yesterday. Played it all day. Really like it so far. It's different compared to most other JRPGs I've played and the story has charm. It seems like there is always something to do in it.
Super happy with the game so far. Might just drop everything else and play this for a while.
You can see that it's a low budget game, but I really don't mind. A review said something like "it feels like a PS2 game" and I kind of agree. But I think that's pretty cool, there aren't a lot of those games around anymore. It's a different kind of "retro".
Music is amazing, setting is interesting (I love that it's actually set in the real North Sea!) and combat is showing potential.
Is Gust Chan like some super OP Servan later or is she just a novelty? Not sure if I should use here lol

Agreed! Loving the game here! Gust Chan has pretty great DPs and range but her servant burst is just awful. I replaced her as soon as I found better servants. You can keep her though as she has uses as a DPs mule
I think it reaches only in the boss battle you probably just passed. It's the sole point where just attacking won't get you a win, so you need to be quite fast and smart using your servants.
I just hope Gust makes a second game and get the difficulty right. This one was too easy.

Maybe? Maybe not. There might be a audience for this. There were some folks that I follow on twitter that can't manage an action game or action RPG at all, so they were really excited to see if this would be more their level.

The game is definitely charming. I'm really intrigued by what's going on with Arnice and Lilysse in the story so far. The general theme of the Nightlord is interesting to me as well, as quite a bit of the plot so far revolves around the mysteries of the Nightlord and how it relates to the Night and the fiends. However the game doesn't ignore the personal relationships between the main cast which is good.
I also really like the setting and it's cool that they added a way to show what Arnice does during the day since all the fighting happens at night.
By the way I am having no luck receiving a certain servan from oceania trade merchant, I must really be unlucky or something <_<. This plat trophy is going to be harder than I thought.
Finished (Platinum) earlier this morning after getting frustrated with the last Arena task last night. Some of the trophies can get pretty grindy.
Overall a mostly enjoyable experience, particularly the music. It's been a while since I didn't feel the immediate need to drastically lower the music volume; usually that's the first thing I do.
I'm still not convinced 'Nights of Azure' is a good adaptation of the original title, though.

Gargoyle and suicide bomber are great damage servans. Also the doll servans summon skill which calls upon a barrier is a life saver against projectiles. I sadly had to ditch Gust-Chan and the tree thing even though her ass kicks major butt early in the game.
part, but mostly the challenge. It felt like the only fight in the game so far where all the mechanics were being used to their fullest. There was a great hectic energy the rest of the bosses lacked.
I even beat her once but died to poison damage before I could open the treasure chest and start the cutscene.

Don't think I have Gargoyle yet but I do have the bomb. I haven't used it at all though since I'm not sure how useful the suicide bomb burst skill is.
Also, I got to the end of Chapter 4 yesterday and
Chris explicitly says that Arnice and Lillyse are in love. I know some people were wondering whether or not it's explicitly stated by either of the characters but a mysterious character like Chris who seems to be able to easily sense the nature of things saying that the two mains are in love is pretty definitive to me. The events that happen afterwards back at the hotel also help cement this. I actually like Arnice and Lillyse's relationship. Arnice is pretty much her knight in shining armour. Also I like her persistence in stating that she'll defeat the Nightlord, since she's doing it for the person she loves, the scale of the challenge itself is irrelevant. Arnice kind of reminds me of Simon (Gurren Lagann) in a sense, because of that supreme confidence in being able to accomplish something no matter how difficult it will be because the other result is unfathomable.

Use it with mobius ring and make sure his passives include smelling salt which all reduce the amount of time it takes to resummon an unconcious servan so you can spam his servan burst within 5 seconds after he's revived. And YUP!!! I was smiling at that part

I got a scenario quest (last tab of the scenario quest menu that requires me to find 3 jewels but it doesn't tell me what location each one is in.
Is that something that will be revealed as I progress through the story or do I have to look up a guide or something because I have no clue where these 3 jewels could be.
Finished the game. It was pretty good, I'd give it a 7/10. Can't say I see any incentive to stick around for trophy farming, sounds like a massive chore.
Of the five endings I'd rate them N2>True>N1=Bonus>N3 (N1-N3 being low to high affection, Bonus being the one you unlock after the "true" ending).
Postgame/ending spoilers below
N2's sheer "fuck everyone" factor was amazing and hilarious.
Lilysse: "Hey so we can go run off to the demon world or whatever to be together and in love forever but that'll kill everyone on earth or something"
Arnice: "Sounds good, let's do it."
The true ending was sweet if massively cliche. N1 was basically just a more boring version of N2, Bonus ending was silly but demon Arnice looks pretty cool, and N3 was the "play the postgame for an extra scene to make this an actual ending" ending.
All three of the last bosses (final + 2 postgame) were decently difficult but none of them were all THAT hard once you get them down. The most annoying thing about the snake lady was having to return to base and switch out my equipment, I honestly found Chris harder due to her Servan sealing attack that's hard to predict, which can be very troublesome because she also starts spamming her summons in the later parts of the fight.

You should probably check your servans and equipment, as leveling actually can only do so much. Make sure you destroy the thing that spawns that
heals her HP and utilize block when that whole flashy thing commences
Servans I'd recommend are the Doll's summon skill which cast a barrier which protects you from projectiles, the healing little cute fairy thing, and two DPSERS. I used mine servant and made him self destruct using a technique stated earlier which makes him respawn instantly, and anything else. It was more of an
annoying fight than anything since those things heal her hp so dam quickly so you have to destroy em asap. Make sure to transform as much as you can with demon form and slam her! let me know how it goes.

Lol I beat the post game dungeon "final boss" by rolling around constantly while spamming servan abilities. That monsters ability is OP as fuck, if you stop you dead.
I... made a good choice pre-ordering this apparently. I was kind of weary of it being a good call given my current crappy situation and the fact I'd skipped on games like Division, but I figured this was a smaller release that needed support far more than some AAA megablockbuster that I wasn't THAT excited for anyway, and now I see physical copies period are scarce.
Kinda wish it had a proper manual or something though, TK seemed to be one of the better ones there lately. Or is Sony shooing publishers away from including manuals on PS4 too?
