End Game Questions (Spoilers)

[prime11]

I do want to get the 100% completion.
My current quest is The Missing Scientist

My questions are
1-How many more quests are left in the game?
2-Is there a point of No Return? Like once I start "this" it leads to ending the game ect ect
Just so I can "stop here" and focus on 100%
3-When should I stop progression for that 100% stuff

4- I know new weapons are in New Game + something
I could only find weapons as far as New Game +4 (google)
Just looking for confirmation on "what new game+ they are in)
If +4 has the last of the new weapons, and nothing past that.
Than that's my goal. To get there :)

Thanks in advance :D

1-How many more quests are left in the game?

* There are 100 Story-based BURG.L quests
https://grounded.fandom.com/wiki/Quests
Compare your list to the list on the website, or just use your current quest number.
At your current quest, you are fairly close (~3) to the "ending", and going back home.

However, you are going to want to finish ALL of the BURG.L story-based quests FIRST.
You will get an achievement (No More Homework) when you finish the last story quest.

* There are 99 Daily BURG.L (Optional) quests, mainly for getting more Raw Science
These do NOT count toward your 100% score, unless it's a Kill Quest that is new to you.

Is there a point of No Return?

* No, the game auto-saves just before the Ending Cut Scene
* After you watch the scene (and get your scorecard), you are dumped back to the menu
* You can re-load a previous save (to improve your score and/or stay in the backyard)
FYI: You still keep the achievement(s) earned for completing the base game.

* Also, by re-loading a previous save, you get multiple attempts for a 100% scorecard

Important:
Reloading a save at this point is required to enter NG+ (and get last 2 NG+ achievements).
Assuming you want ALL achievements earned in a single game play through.

Just so I can "stop here" and focus on 100%

* The "best" place to stop and focus on 100% requirements is after the Javamatic
You should only have 1 remaining story-based quest to go, and this late in the game you should have nearly everything else completed simply by virtue of your play through.

* It's easier to get/complete Mutations in the base game; Bee Prepared...
* You may also want to stock up on resources prior to NG+ too, especially boss items

3-When should I stop progression for that 100% stuff

* When you've finished 100% of the tasks, duh... What a silly question...

If you are looking for a 100% checklist (for the required items added in 1.4):

4- I know new weapons are in New Game + something

* There are actions required in base-game and NG+ GAME(S) to get all weapons by NG+4
* If you don't do these actions (in the correct order), you will not get all craftables by NG+4

Is it just me, or did that previous poster spend WAY too much time playing Grounded?
