However, you can run past most enemies and even run past some bosses without fighting them. For this you may not interact with any of them, meaning you have to beat the entire game while “naked”. There are 4 Shells in the game (basically your “character classes”).

Up until you fight the final boss you can go back through every area and pick up items or lore you missed. You will want to pick one shell to use for a while, at least until you get enough tar and glimpses to fully unlock its abilities so that you can then buy items from Sester Genessa that you need for Bars Tended. Step 1: Complete first playthrough finding all Lore, Items, and Shellsįirst step is to just play through the game normally, finding all Shells, Items and Secret Lore possible and getting used to the game and its combat.
