INTRODUCTION

This guide contains information on every Virtue, Aria, Familiar, Prayer Card and Memory in the game.
You can see the locations of everything on maps. It also contains information on quests and how to progress them.
This guide doesn't have information on every enemy that is needed for Haunted achievement, but if you do every quest and complete the game it will show up.

Keep in mind, that this guide contains full spoilers for areas in the game. Even though it does not focus on the plot, it shows information about bosses and it may spoil the game for you through visuals.

Пугливый Саппорт 5 Sep @ 1:58pm

Oh, thank you, i was afraid corruption ending will count as death and mess with Flawless achievement
Eventually, it isnt as long as you just get to 100% and proceed to the next location

Hellfire [author] 5 Sep @ 1:06pm

If i remember correctly, letter from father is acquired with corruption of the game.

Пугливый Саппорт 5 Sep @ 12:25pm

Im sorry, where do i find letter from father?..

ChemicalAccident 10 Feb @ 8:08pm

is there any plan to finish this?

FlashStep 8 Jul, 2024 @ 8:32am

Nevermind, I missed it. It's on the second map of abandoned sanctum

FlashStep 8 Jul, 2024 @ 8:22am

Thanks for doing this, very helpful.

One thing I noted is that "Memory of Ty" is not listed on any maps. Where is it?

Hey man, just found out you started this recently and I wanna say, thank you for doing all this.
We're a small community and what you have done across these two games would help a lot of players. Just know that we exist and we appreciate your guides :)
