My goal with this revision is to smooth out the set - fill in progression gaps and detail work on weird bits of content. I want players to be rewarded for finding every weird little quirk in the game. The Earthbound set has always been an inspiration for showing me new stuff in that game after 25 years of play, and that's what I'm going for here. I considered having achievements for each possible Golden Saucer date but nobody I talked to wanted to play the first half of the game four times, so I kept that to just an achievement for Yuffie - the other Rare Date. Two playthroughs are still the expectation for the set - one without any restrictions, and one low-level run.
This revision is pretty close to a "perfect game" as outlined in a variety of FAQs and walkthroughs. I'm not asking for 99 of anything but there are a lot of weird items in various corners of the game and bits of dialogue and interactivity that usually get missed. There's a secret ether in Corel town that I've never heard of before! A lot of these new achievements are missable, and I have probably missed some [m]s in the list below. If the revision passes, the set will be [m] tagged, with FBernkastelKues's consent.
Point values may change, but I like round numbers, so they probably won't change much. Existing achievements will be rescored based on difficulty and scammability (if autofire auto-wins an achievement, it shouldn't be worth much) but most will remain unchanged. I look forward to giving this already-fun set a little polish and filling out.
