Arcane Egg of the Abyss. Complain.
I can't believe I took the charm before the arcane egg and I can't go back to that cave again, just because I didn't know what's inside... The game is forbidding me to complete it at 100%, so I have now a "corrupted" savegame.

And I can't believe in such a great and cared game (developening way talking), this fails of design are suddenly coming up.

What?? Arcane egg isn't an important item when you reach late game phase and has nothing to do with 100% completion at all.

Collecting all that stuff and sell them to the collector doesn't have anything to do with 100% completion?

Not at all. I didn't even sell a single 4 kind of artifacts to NPC in City of Tears.

Thank you. I wasn't have all the info then. But sometimes the collector tells you some lore when you sell an artifact, and I'm sure with an egg he would tell you something...

This is what he says when you sell the fourth Arcane Egg to him.

A fourth Arcane Egg! I wouldn't have believed it possible. I've never met a bug with your knack for uncovering this Kingdom's treasures.

You must have some sort of sense about you? Or maybe these eggs are somehow drawn to you.

My fellows have claimed there's a will of sorts within each egg, that each seeks its own bearer, or reject them.

That'd be a subtle power indeed, and I remain sceptical. Relic Seekers are prone to confusing facts with fable.


Nothing special happens otherwise, so if you've sold the other three eggs to him already, feel free to read that and find out what he says for the fourth.

I cant understand why there are games still coming out that still do this ♥♥♥♥. everyone has hated it since the very first time it was ever happened.

do
not
lock
players
out
of
areas
where
they
can
miss
ANYTHING
EVER

I don't care that it's pointless to the completion of the game, or that that amount of money is easy to come by anyways. that's still dialogue I now can't get myself without playing the entire game over again for an item that's not even remotely worth the trouble. and in this instance it was basically a coin flip unless you knew ahead of time because the path splits into two very dangerous directions. but it's a skewed coin flip because the game deliberately pushes you towards the core instead of the egg by making the core's path look safer. on top of not warning you that you'd be locked out afterwards. there's no reason for this area to be locked after you get the item. it should've just been left open permanently

AT LEAST IT"S NOT AS BAD AS ORI THO

I'm glad I took the egg before, but it was by pure luck. I took the egg path before the charm one.
