Radiant Historia sidequests (spoiler-free)

Radiant Historia has been out for a few days now. How are you liking it? I was right about the time paradoxes, wasn’t I? Go on, say it.

Why must she be so cute and so deadly?

I’ve played a number of games since I finished it, but I still have a soft spot for it in my heart, so I thought I’d make a final post (and post a picture of my favorite character while I was at it). And I thought I’d make that final post useful, so I decided to make a list of all the sidequests and what chapter they activate in. It’s based on the Japanese FAQ I posted last time, if you can read Japanese. This is meant to be spoiler-free so it’s really just the name of the quest, the chapter and who you talk to to activate it. I also put a star mark (*)beside the quests you need to complete to get the true ending. The not-so-good ending is pretty nice too, IMO.

There, 36 sidequests altogether. How many RPGs can claim to have 36 sidequests these days? I just noticed that most of these quests take place in Alistel. Guess it’s only natural, seeing as Stock is an Alistel soldier and all. As for how to actually *do* the quests, well, that’s part of the fun isn’t it? Don’t bother asking me, I won’t answer any “How do I—” or “Where do I—” questions because I’d just be hurting you. Back to Tactics Layer now.
