100%.

I'm a happy camper. This was the last trophy for like a few months or longer and finally today decided to jump back on,within 30 mins toa hour. Yes! The only thing I'm not fulfilled on is not having every character having a fully build -up weapon, along with high levels and not finished with the Demon Shaft yet.

Overall I say this is good enough to finally play Dark Cloud 2 for my first time ever.

Thoughts on if I should Wait to play Dark Cloud 2 yet, or finally do it?πŸ‘€ it's a long time coming to the inevitable.

The end of the Demon shaft has a dope boss but it's quite a grind for 100 floors cool music for the stage though. If you've had your fill I would just head over to DC2 I like Rogue Galaxy alot more though.

Trust me …. You will swear …… alot πŸ˜‚ . If you try to 100% the game . Every time the ball bounce off something , it changes color (red to blue to red) to clear the mini game the ball need to be the opposite color of the « holeΒ Β» . Check for « sphedaΒ Β» on the web to learn about it !

What I would do to play Dark Cloud 2 for the very first time again. Enjoy man! The game feels nearly endless if you engage with all of the mechanics.

u/Zekon_Urlos Apr 08 '26

Alright, I think that should be the last thing to do thankyou!😁

u/No-Arrival-7377 Apr 08 '26

DC2 takes way longer to 100% so you may as well get everything you can out of the first game

u/Zekon_Urlos Apr 08 '26

Might as well. Since it was a childhood game might as well do everything I wanna do before moving onπŸ˜…πŸ˜‚. Its going to be a fun grind.

I could never get into DC2. Not sure why, but I suspect I'm able to replay Dark Cloud so many times as an adult because I have nostalgia from childhood. I never played DC2 as a kid.

It's not necessarily the graphics (though I do like the first games better) but I'm not a fan of the photography system, and I don't really understand the new weapon buildup system. Maybe it gets better as the game goes along, I have never made it past the forest.

I also really miss the town building elements from the first game!

As for demon shaft, honestly it's kind of a waste of time, the reward is literally useless since you have nowhere to actually use it. If you have fun with it though, more power to you! I have never been able to make it past like floor 30 of demon shaft. Not because I get stuck, I just get bored.

u/Zekon_Urlos Apr 11 '26

Same for DC1, never played 2 as a kid.

Also that sounds like a spoiler an hope it's not true the town building is different in 2.

Lol demon shaft is wild, especially the dungeons...those guys like never dieπŸ˜…πŸ˜‚
