Chests in inaccessible locations?

[Spike]

I'm playing a Reisz/Angela/Hawkeye game and I've noticed that locations like the Beast Kingdom/Ferolia and the Ancient Capital still show up on the map (and show the chest count etc. even though there's no way to get the chest count there).

From memory of the original you can't actually visit these at any point in the game - is there a way you can access these now? It doesn't really matter in the game, but it will bug me if my map is not showing 100% completion :3

I think i got all chests on my first playthrough.

I just finished the game with Riez/hawk/kevin. there are chests in altena I cannot get. And you get access to the ancient capital later in the story, dont worry about that. Thanks to Lil Cactus, I can see where the chest im missing in Latena is, but I see no way to enter the city since the inner gate is closed.

Beast kingdom, altena, and nevarl serve as dungeons later in the game depending on the story you're in, just like the main game end dungeons, so there are areas that you will never access in a playthrough or only access later.

And there are, I suspect, areas that are GoneForevers like Laurent Citadel. I could not find a chest in there no matter what I did, but I DID see a Locked Door and then when I bested the two ninja brothers, I was locked out of the Citadel without an option to explore the rest of it (esp that locked door). The game will not let me go back in there at all, and I assume it's pretty much forever as I'd have no reason to go there surely.

Its partly goneforever if you have Riez. you gain access to laurent, but you cant go to the upper levels of the castle.

Yeah, I think the list of accessible but unrevisitable locations is
1. The opening chapter (except maybe as Duran and Charlotte?)
2. In Chapter 1, Astoria before it is destroyed
3. Laurent Citadel
4. Also in that Chapter, the Ghost Ship, Beuca Island, Tomato Town and the Seaside Cavern
5. In Chapter 5 (I think), the dungeon that Faerie is taken to (i.e. the Beast Kingdom, Altena or Nevarl)

Laurent Citadel not being accessible also irritates me, but for a different reason. I know as far as the game's concerned it's a dungeon, but it's also your home (if you're playing as Reisz), and there's no reason why you shouldn't be able to go back there and finish getting missed chests etc.

The chests resets at ng+. You still wants to 100% on map?

Yes for the ones that actually play their games yes.
