With regards to the dreamers While you said monomon is the dreamer that intrigued you the most in the fog canyon, you also don't have the items you're meant to have to access them, and the only way is a speedrun skip Lurien the dreamer in city of tears also requires an item you don't have but i completely forgot you're meant to have an item (since it's probably one of the easiest skip in the game), lurian is also the first people normally go for, and probably the hardest Herrah i don't think you are missing any item for and is pretty easily accessible with what you currently have, since you got distant village stag

Ooo and I see Herrah will be in Deepnest... I think I'm liking that idea xD So we'll look into those parts of Fungal Wastes near Mantis Village next and potentially slip back down there to give them a visit :3c

2 very useful things to know about dream nail. 1: If you dream nail enemies/bosses you will gain soul. This can be useful if you are low on health or simply need more soul to cast spells. 2: Try using the dream nail on npc's until their dialogue repeats. This is because sometimes an npc will have multiple thoughts that you can only access by using the dream nail multiple times.

Ahh just like speaking with them regularly has! :O You are awesome ♥ If I remember to when we happen to pass nearby those we've Dreamnailed so far I'll absolutely swing by to give them another slap (they don't seem to mind it, thankfully)

One thing I don't think you've noticed is, you can talk to most of the shopkeeper NPCs by walking past them to stand behind their shop counters. some of them will give you neat lore dialogue, others give hints about gameplay or mechanics.

Oh right! That was pointed out to me a few episodes back, I'll do that from now on any time we interact with one (and I don't forget xD) ♥

Utterly nerve wracking sequence of events in that thorn corridor shgndhdgnhdg. On the edge of my seat cheering you on (and begging you to pick up some soul for heals before committing to the platform challenge, but hey, it worked out in the end regardless!)

Lmao the funny thing is, going back for more Soul hadn't occured to me at all; the only other thing I had considered was using another Rancid Egg by Dirtmouth xD I'm so sorry for your nerves but have to be honest, I'll probably end up in more situations like that! I apologize for those moments ahead of time :') ♥

51:25 I know that there are a lot of other comments and this is hard to get used to at first, but try completely switching out your charm build depending on what you are doing. For example, when you died there, I would recommend taking out some of your charms and adding Mark of Pride and Long Nail because when you have both of the nail length charms equipped at once, it makes parkour FAR easier as the range of your pogo is more than TRIPLED.

That would have been a very good call yes! xD Admittedly it's something that I've always neglected to do in similar systems with other games I've played just on my solo time; I feel like doing so will offer a deeper enjoyment of the nuances the game has to offer so I will work on slowing my thoughts down in those moments and assessing what I could swap in and out!

Trying to kill me with all those close calls trying to get your soul back. I think I messaged you everything else I had to say though. Keep it up! There is still more to explore. Just as a reminder, I had the correct general area, but the wrong placement for the thing that gets you passed the first ending. You can go through the door Joni's gets you, but there is another area you need a special charm that will close off that first ending. Probably still not a big deal, but if you want to see all endings just be wary of going through areas locked off by charms. However, in that Joni charm locked room, there is a missable collectable. Get the relic before the charm.

Relic before the charm, understood! I'll repeat that to myself over and over so hopefully I won't forget xD I'm sorry for the stress of that sequence as well BUT, it is those moments that I appreciate the most about a game willing to punish me :p ♥

I was gonna say something but decided not to. This game is better without spoilers, then again I've noticed you seem very open to receiving secrets from other players! What exactly is your position in that? 🤔 Yes spoilers? No spoilers? So you want us to remind you of things? Or point out secrets you've missed? An explanation of the lore? I would assume you'd answer no to these questions but I ask cause a few videos now you said you've been told things, I'm asking just to be on the same page! XD

I appreciate your asking for verification! ^^ ♥ Generally speaking, I view what others might see as "backseat gaming" less negatively, as I think most people simply want to help whenever they are doing so; the only caveat is I or any other creator may or may not take the advice, but I usually see merit in each suggestion and when I seem like I'm not following advice but haven't said anything, it's more likely that I've forgotten it in the moments of playing xD I do prefer those suggestions to be spoiler free, or perhaps to use things I've previously discovered to lead me into arriving at certain conclusions. At the same time, I know its very easy to get excited over someone discovering a world we love for the very first time, so I completely understand if something slips through the good intentions. Specifically, I'd ask not to be given information or lore that I have yet to come across but will discover eventually by exploration or critical thinking, or something that I've very obviously looked over and don't seem like I'm going to discover (i.e. if I'm nearing a point of no return, you are welcome to scream, "NOOOOOOOO DON'T DO IT YOU STUPID CEPHALOPOD!" xD

Perhaps you should go back to a boss you've defeated since you got the dream nail, you might surprised.

Ooo yes! :D This is a popular suggestion, I think I will head back up to where False Knight was and try it out next time! This also answers my question regarding why some boss corpses seem to remain after being defeated (I am even more excited to see now xD)
