i hope i can get this game soon :D

Wow! Some of you guys are really putting in the hours. The dolphin training is really starting to annoy me a little. I only train on per night cause it's too long. The shows loose their luster after a while also.

I am having trouble with the blue bird in the red sea. I know I have to go on a full moon night, but I don't know when that happens. If their is one on Nineball Island, traveling to the red sea takes one day, so I guess it won't be there anymore, am I correct? Please help. Thanks.

Well, I am now over the 60 hours mark and it doesn't get old. I'm up to 800000 pelagos, so the million is approaching. I also started taking more photo requests and they are fun. The only thing I really don't like is the dolphin training. The music...aaargh!...the music...get it out of my mind...I beg you...I beg... Plus, it's taking way way way too much time to train them up another level.

So...that's it...

Hey.

I've crawled up to 60 hours today. I've been diverted by Silent Hill and Sky Crawlers, but I'm back in the game. 660,000 P, 87 titles at the mo. A long way to go still!! Not sure how TWRoO is getting on...????

9 hours iirc. I beat the main story, did a couple side quests, a little exploration, and bought some random gear and few chairs for nineball island. I probably won't be going back to it any time soon. Nothing against the game, it's just that I rarely go about collecting doodads or doing repetitive sidequests, though it seems like there is a lot of content there for $30. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a fun game where they can explore and just enjoy themselves.

I'm about 100 hours in, but I'm still about 125,000 potatoes away from reopening the Cavern of the Gods. In the meantime, I've got all this stuff!

335/352 Creatures
100/155 Titles
193/200 Salvage items
93/100 Golden coins
10/11 Partners (trained to level 2)

And I'll bet that most of what I'm missing is in the Cavern of the Gods :|

About 155 in total

149h game file time, plus a second file I started to see how quickly I could get through the main story (ignoring the re-opening of the temple) I have 5 hours on that file (it was just over 4hours when I completed the main storyline) plus another hour or 2 when not in a game file.

Here's my stats:

Titles - 131/155
All 11 dolphins up to level 3, and I have unlocked most of their level 3 tricks (could be all of them if some of the dolphins don't have a special named trick

Missing:
 - 9 species from small marine life
 - 1 species from deep sea life (firefly squid I think)
 - 7 species from the "other fauna"
 - 2 legendary creatures... but neither of them seem to be in the other fauna section so I don't know what's going on with them.

 - 25 coins (not in a rush to look for them though)
 - 9 salvage items including: 1 small sphere; 2 small books; 2 paintings; 1 small box; 1 large container; 2 large sculptures

apparently missing some haircuts too, I have tried all the ones currently unlocked.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I must have spent 20-25 hours just training dolphins, although half of that was actually spent watching TV (auto train then switching dolphins during advert breaks)

Hmm, not sure how much time I've invested so far... quite a few dozens of hours, no doubt, but I'd have to check.
Haven't really had much time to play, lately, but I'll get around to it again, soon.

You are an Endless Ocean Machine!!

He's been working like a pack mule!

Also! After another 5 hours of grinding, I got the rest of the cash to reopen the Cavern of the Gods, got all the golden coins AND discovered two super-legendary creatures. WOOOOOO
