Day 17 Dream: Started a bit eerie with the giant head in one of the corners of the tiny room. I got transported to the Violence District pier but immediately red linked to a "store" with a black entry that white linked me to a white, foggish mountainous area with lots of cliffs and bridges. I somehow white-linked to the "temple pits" where I encountered a giant floating elephant, before making my way across the hall, where I white-linked to the Strange World. Before getting there I kept getting worried if I'll encounter the gray man or not, but thankfully I didn't. I saw a giant turtle, some big fish in a shallow river, and a dorsal fin before my "dream" was over. This game does a good job of making you feel eerie and on your feet. The music really works most of the time, and the genuine wonder about what you're gonna encounter next is always there.

I played until I unlocked the symbiote. Finished 13 races on "Super Hero" ranking out of the 24. The trick races mostly are fine, but the ones reliant on parkouring kind of suck because the traversal in this game feels a bit floaty and imprecise. Combat is underrated, you can get good combos with nice timing and dodging. Collected 16/100 meteorites. Wished there was some ambience music like the PS3/X360 version, as the game kind of feels lifeless without it. Took some photos for the 100%. Photo detection can be off at times, but atleast there's some use to it unlike the next-gen counterparts. Emulation on PS2 kind of sucks though, but i'm doing it for the cheevos (rhyme?)

To master the game, you need to clear the game once on Hyper. Wait for the credits to end and then complete it again. You will get "The Hero" ranking and The End on the bottom right.

This has no effect on cutscenes or gameplay, but it is satisfying.

I was so close to 1 ccing...

No way to "master"

I didn't bother 1CC'ing and there is no "master" possible.

Normal + Professional

No way to "master'

No way to "master" the game from what I know.

No way to "master"

To master the game you need to beat all leagues on expert and then again on master in the top 3.

"Mastering the game" would mean getting the General rank at an end dialogue, but it has no effect on the game.
