You actually haven't fully explored the room in Kingdom's Edge that the guy's butt was in. The map filled it in as though you have, but there was an area near the top that you couldn't reach because you didn't have the double jump yet.

I'm so happy you were as engrossed with the White Palace as I was. My first time, I got to it by chance at night and stayed up until 4am to beat it.

for the record, since you didn't talk to her again after getting your upgrade - this is -not- the last reward for dreams. maybe go back and check again :P

also who wants to tell raocow about the path of pain, he'll never find it himself

Not necessarily that late. You can go to Kingdom's Edge pretty much immediately after you get Desolate Dive. In theory you could pick up Quick Slash before even killing any of the Dreamers.
As far as I can tell you can do almost everything before killing any of the Dreamers. Nothing major seems to be locked behind any individual dreamer, just absorbing all three of them whenever you want to unlock the egg. (Unless I overlooked something -- I've only watched this LP.)

The Mr. Mushroom sidequest is locked behind doing all of the dreamers. Though, that doesn't count as something major...

asked this in the patapon spotzone, but i'll ask again here: raocow, do you need a megaman-style checklist of what's left for you to do? Someone's been keeping a list for you.

I think hints will definitely be needed now, I don't think there's any obvious places left aside from following up on the two things he did this video and the Trial of the Fool.

The question for raocow I have rather is what kind of hints would you prefer? Just the region, the general area of the region, or a specific guide of what room? Using the Nosk area he found today as an example:

1) breakable wall in Deepnest
2) breakable wall in the bottom half of Deepnest
3) breakable wall in Deepnest, in the room to the left of the Hot Spring
4) breakable wall in Deepnest, in the room to the left of the Hot Spring, on the far left above the bottom spikes

also do you want to know where certain important things are (where to go with the Kingsoul, where the last Pale Ore is, any remaining bosses) or would you prefer to find that out when you explore the places?

I'm pretty sure there aren't any more 'clues' for where to go for story progression since the game expects you to know at this point. Or to just check every crook and cranny left... Either way, I don't think it's a spoiler to just say where the Kingsoul can be used since it's not going to be any more 'revealed'.

I kinda want y'all to be stubborn and make raocow think to figure it out himself

If y'all won't let him have this the entire la-mulana LP is going to be borderline unwatchable imo

You should check out this super cool youtuber named "raocow", he might have some advice on where your birthplace is

Congratulations raocow, I believe you beat every regular boss. Only remaing ones are the true final boss, whoever is at the end of the Coliseum, and the DLC guys.

-I think I remember seeing a cracked floor in a small side room. It was a really long time ago, above an entrance to either Fungas place or Fog place.
-There's that guy at the edgelands whose butt you can tickle. Still need to find the top part.
-And let's see how many useful rewards you missed out from Grubdad, all this time.
-Might as well sell your artifacts, too. I don't think that rare 4th one was ever sold.
-Have you bought everything possible? What about that lady who sells notches?

there's one thing i want to point out in the category of "stuff raocow found once but hasn't gone back to" - that being the grey mourner in the resting grounds

this was approximately Two Billion Years Ago though so i can see why he forgot

fairly certain raocow hasn't bought the last charm notch from the charm merchant either, but

The grey mourner is worth doing but can be a bit of a thing. It's not too difficult if you plan well and play very carefully but might not make for a great video (he could get it first try, could take over an hour and require lots of editing).

On the subject of the Grey Mourner, I will say that

the charm that Grubfather gives you for collecting all of the grubs is really great for that quest, but because raocow never changes his charms, I feel like he'd have to be specifically advised to try that.

And maybe some angrycow, if we're lucky.

Honestly, even with the reward for that being what it is, I'd end up skipping that video. It was already bad enough seeing him be this close to progress today, I don't think I'd want to be around to watch him stumble all over the place just to plant a flower.

You say like there aren't some of us who not-so-secretly hope for that :lol:

Like don't get me wrong I don't like raocow being legit upset, but I do enjoy his negative reactions to both extreme challenge and awful design. And that quest? A little from column A...

I hope people don't just go spelling out everything for him in La-Mulana. It'll be hilarious seeing him try to beat his face against everything and accomplishing little. Though this is also raocow so it wouldn't surprise me at this point that he inexplicably manages to find success that way and thus totally fail to learn his lesson.

Planning things out and playing carefully isn't really raocow's modus operandi though. More likely he'll play just like normal with little preparation and just bowl his way through it bullheadedly even if it takes him numerous tries.

ngl, I was starting to think you would end up not rescuing Bretta until like the last episode of the LP or something.
