Conan Chop Chop Walkthrough Discussion

Please use this thread to discuss the Conan Chop Chop walkthrough.

TAers,

To motivate myself into getting this walkthrough done (I got sidetracked by life over the holidays but am now back on this walkthrough), I'm going to post Friday updates for Conan Chop Chop up until the review submission of this guide. As such, here is my initial outline for the walkthrough, and the current status of each section:

Walkthrough Overview [Draft Done]
A Must Read about the King Conan Achievement [Draft Done]
-- How is King Conan Actually Unlocked [Draft Done]
-- What You Need To Always Do To Unlock King Conan [Draft Done]

I'm hoping to knock out one "major" section per week. Given that I'll be away for a week (and change) this month, that adds up to a mid-March deadline for submission.

Been away on vacation for a bit but we're back on track. Here's the current status:

Thanks to the delay, if we keep to the one section per week schedule, we should be don by end of March. Hopefully sooner...

Hi all,

Family issues led me to put this aside for awhile, but I'm back and hoping to finish this shortly. Here's where we are:

I did make some progress as you can see, (mostly) completing the Charms & Miscellaneous section and making a big dent in the Playthroughs. Playthoughs should be done by next Friday (barring another disaster), along with the end boss section. After that, I just need to finish the playstyles/characters section, then on to final editing.

My apologies for the delay on this, I should pick up steam this month and have it in shortly.

Weekly update, possibly my last:

As you can see, everything is done outside of the Playstyles/Characters page. As well, I'm going to add a section about how save works, so you can use it to your advantage. I expect to be done the whole draft within a week. Will let you know when done, then will let you know when its sent off to be edited.

Walkthrough rough draft finished! Working on editing now for spelling, flow, and consistency (and to make sure I didn't miss any important details). This walkthrough should be passed on for final editing within the week.

The walkthrough has now been published.
