The main story is extremely easy to follow. It only gets convoluted toward the end when you’re given a bunch of choices of side quests to complete. If you gave me a screenshot of anywhere at anytime in the game, I’d be able to tell you where to go next lol

I swear I’m the only one that can’t figure this game out. I’ve given it a dozen tries and always get stuck not knowing how to progress.

I think like 93 million bc, there’s a cave gorilla that’s basically two shotting all my characters. Or I can go to a festival present day where the princess doesn’t want to talk to her dad.

Ah. You gotta get through the caves; at that point in the game there’s only one path to progress. There are ways around MOST of the bao baos (those big gorilla guys), but you’re gonna have to fight a couple. They are the strongest things down there and also the only thing not weak to lightning magic. You may want to grind on Gato to get some more levels; especially if you have avoided most encounters.
Focus on the bao bao first. They take slightly more damage from magic than physical attacks. I like to have Robo here because he can dish out damage and do full party heals. Ayla and Crono are required here, but they also have an excellent duo tech that deals lighting and physical damage to everything in a wide area.

I was in the wrong era, lol. I had to go to 600AD and I was way over leveled. I’m currently on a mission called Tata and the frog after getting the broken matamuse

I remember getting a bit lost there too. If I’m not sure where I’m going after 15 minutes of wandering I just look up a guide. I did that 3 times I think which for sá open world without quest markers is an incredible feat.

I played without a guide, and I think I got stuck like that in a couple places later on but eventually got through it. Honestly though if you’re stuck and no longer having fun figuring it out just use a guide so you can see the rest of the game, nobody said you had to be that kind of patient gamer.

The thing is, I don’t know where I am, too far back, mobs two hit me, too far forward, no progress… Bleh
