Early New Game Plus?

[mono]

I've noticed that like 31% of players already got the achievement to buy something from the NG+ merchant, any idea what's up with that?

[RoldErrant]

getting early unlock rewards from linking PSN to steam, which normally unlocked in NG+

[mono]

Oh that makes sense, thanks

PS4 saves work on this game, you just need to decrypt them. I transferred my 100% save over and it just worked.

just got the achievement for no reason as soon as the prologue finished

Question for you: Does your 100% save file include every last collectible, equipment, dye, unlock etc?
There's been a bit of a hunt for such a save, but so far all publicly available save files have been a bust for that.
In case your save is that sort of golden goose, would you, uh, consider donating it to the cause?

Its a save right at the start of NG+ so still need to buy the NG+ gear and grind for them special flowers.

I saw that one, but in the description it disclaimes to not actually being a 100% completion save, so it's not exactly what some of us are looking for (having platinum'd the game on console and wanting an NG+ ready save with all collectibles etc already complete).

Hey man can i ask? if you want to start playing with a 100% save then what is the point? There is nothing to do, no missions, nothing collect and nothing to buy ect... so what is the point?

My interest is in both playing a Lethal+ difficulty playthrough (as I greatly enjoyed the initial playthrough back on PS5 on Lethal, where I did everything), while also maybe recording some footage for a video I'd like to make.
Personally I do enjoy NG+ing certain games, so I think it's perfectly valid to not want to just start all over again.
Tsushima does scale somewhat with NG+, and still gives you some stuff if you pick up certain collectibles again.

My 100% was originally made prior to NG+ being released so its excluding the NG+ vanities, but it has true 100% on literally everything else, just 73/82 or so vanity items. I'll collect those before sharing on Nexus.

If it'll be the kind of save we can then start NG+ off of with only NG+ things not yet unlocked in it... It'll be EXACTLY what dozens of us are seeking.
Dozens!

That's basically what it is/was. If someone had told me that I'd have to collect SOME of the stuff all over again, I'd not have bothered doing it all in first playthrough. I did true 100% on first playthrough... hours of following the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ guiding winds... Only to find out only some of it carried over to NG+ and I officially gave 0 ♥♥♥♥♥ for collecting from that point... I just finished NG+ and moved over to Legends and once I'd done it all in Legends, that was when I stopped playing.

Well, if there ever was an atmospheric, eye-catching and full of vibe open world to be fetching these collectibles again in...
