Is There A Point Of No Return For Anything?

[Nidstang]

Without too many spoilers: are there any points of no return to be concerned about in regards to 100% completion/finding everything, and also getting achievements like there were in the first game?

I'm trying to play as blind as possible, but I'd also like to 100% the game and get all the achievements in one playthrough if possible. Is anything unattainable when you get to a certain part in the game?

no, your fine you get to do "extra credit" after the credits

Achievements too? I know some are locked in the first game depending on some story things you do - like showing people the turtle, or certain things that need to be done during the day vs night.

Reading through the requirements of every achievement, none of them are time sensitive.
That turtle thing shouldn't have been an achievement; it was fun as an onerous easter egg, but frustrating as an achievement.

Excellent. Thank you!

Yeah, can confirm, none of the achievements or collectibles are impossible to get after a certain point in the story. You can just play everything at your own pace without worries.

Regarding missable achievements, there are a couple if you don't fight a couple enemies 'correctly' and then you clear out the areas post game still without doing it. "Boss" enemies don't respawn (judge and panic) post game if you clear out the areas. Luckily they both spawn a bunch of times during the game. Nothing else should be missable.

As for a point of no return, there's a point in the game where you get a warning. After doing that, it locks out the first 3 physical locations until after you've beaten the game. That being said, you can't complete the Motherlobe nor the scavenger hunt until post game anyway.

There are a couple of temp point of no returns. The game gives you a warning before both of them though.
