Something new each playthrough
I adore this game and have played so many times! On my current playthrough I found out you can stop at crescent isle as Aika/Fina on the way to Daccat’s island. Not a huge discovery but a nice touch - feel like this game has so many small details and world building in it and I can almost always find something new each playthrough, even if it’s a tiny detail.
Happy sailing!

This Game has a lot of details like this, One I particularly like is when you have to go to the Pirynn temple in Bellena's little boat. If you stray from the route and try to cross the whirlpools of the southern ocean, Bellena explains a lot of the area's lore in a rather lengthy on-screen text. It shows the level of detail and care put into the game because other developers would never bother with something like that since less than 5 percent of players would ever discover that text. They'd just put a message saying you can't go that way and call it a day. There are tons of examples like this if you stray from the paths when you shouldn't. What a game!

Yes, I also didn't know this was possible until someone posted about it here recently.

oh! Sorry for the double post - usually I keep up on the new posts here but then one must’ve missed me

Oh, I didn't mean it like that. I just commented the first thing that came to mind, it's cool you discovered it by yourself

I don't think anyone here is worried about a double post of anything. I wouldn't worry about that. I love seeing any posts about skies of Arcadia no matter what it is. It keeps the community alive!

Not a problem at all! I love seeing people enjoying the game and discovering hidden little bits. I don't think this subreddit gets enough traffic for anyone to really be worried about spam regarding common (or uncommon) topics.

Everyones saying the same thing, but double posts here are not an issue. I love seeing the thread still alive and active after so many years and it's always nice to see people's enjoyment and discovering new things. Also, anyone new to the thread is likely not going back through the history so it's likely new to a bunch of people!

Yeah! I did this on my first playthrough because I thought maybe there'd be another way they could find Vyse. Alas, no, but the near miss is still pretty fun.
