It's out tomorrow!

AlsoI completed the fish encyclopedia in the first game yesterday! I haven't got all the treasures and not all the air tanks/flippers and gloves yet.... I may go for the completion of clothing by doing diving guides and photo ops but I am not planning on completing the treasures. Too much effort for very little gain.

Enjoy!! You lucky bas^@$% (grumble, grumble, grumble).   Just trying to finish my encyclopedia too.  Just got orcas! (My favorite, had to use a walkthrough though to find out how)   Will I need to change seasons to get some critters?   And to do that would I have to endlessly advance time?  

Well I think I found all but about 10 species without going past the first month. And you only need to advance into Winter for about 4 species. and there is only 1 that doesn't appear till Spring.

The game begins in July (already 1 month into Summer)
Autumn begins in September, Winter in December etc.

And yes, I have spent a few sessions of advancing time in chunks to get through to March.... I generally did it in about 1-2 week chunks (which means advancing time 14-28 times in 1 go... so takes about 5-10 minutes. That way I got to check out some of the monthly things like the "Sepau days" where big groups of 1 species collect at the secret lake area. Though once I got into December and completed everything but the 1 species I did it in larger chunks, with a shorter dive in between.
From about December 3rd/4th I advanced to the 24th (to see if Catherine wished me a Merry Christmas or something... she didn't, but I did get new year) then through to 1st Jan and had a dive to check out the baby Japanese bullhead sharks, then advance through to February, stopping to see the Bigfin reef squid hatchlings, and then onto March when there is a shark hatching (can't remember the specific species) and the beginning of Spring which means I found the last missing species: multicolourfin rainbow-fish.


....

 

Wow.  That seems like a lot of bother for a few species.  Especially with EO2 around the corner.  It's amazing that they put in seasonal hatchings though.   How did you even find out about Sepau days?    Out of curiousity did you use a walkthrough or did you just keep diving all over the place to find the last few species?   It'd be awesome to see turtle hatchlings crawling back into the sea, I wonder if we'll get that in EO2.
