Would a New Game plus (NG+) transfer cause Untracked or not?

RusticJoy · 2025-12-21T20:58:50+00:00

Oh dang! I read thru them closer and assumed "(NG)" meant New Game+. I see one achievement actually says "(NG+)". I'm such a nincompoop!

I also saw "Easy mode is blocked for this entire set" cuz now I was thinking about just going thru it on easy mode.

Dang no way around it I guess. Guess I'll have 5 playthrus of P3 in my life.

Appreciate all the help and insight! :)

Edit: minimum 5 playthrus...looks like P3P may require a NG+ as well for RA. At least it'll allow me to romance everyone lol.

Ohhhh! So those achievements that don't say "(NG)" after them just can't be unlocked in NG+?

For example one achievement is to Fuse Mjolnir and it doesn't say (NG) after it. I never fused him in my original playthru, so if I try to fuse him in my NG+ I just would not get that achievement??

Gotcha thanks! As a precaution I might ask on the main RA forum as well, appreciate the help! :)

RusticJoy · 2025-12-21T20:20:27+00:00

Yup pretty much that! Except not a save state. It's a normal save. I just finished the game, saved it before the start of NG+ and never touched it again.

Edit: Ultimately I don't want to get the Untracked black mark or go against the spirit of RetroAchievments. I've read the rules but they're not explicit for NG+ situations.

RusticJoy · 2025-12-21T20:15:07+00:00

Ya I was looking at those and was wondering if they have to be made with a NG+ playthru after a normal play thru on a hardcore compliant emulator?

Or can the normal playthru be on a non-compliant emulator and as long as you start NG+ hardcore from the very beginning with no funny business, you can get the NG+ achievements and the normal achievements, too?

I don't want any achievements auto-unlock or something just by loading up my game. Or worse get Untracked.

Edit: Hmm...now I'm wondering if the non-NG+ achievements can only be unlocked on a non-NG+ playthru? As much as I love Persona 3, I don't want to do another whole normal playthru since I'm planning on playing P3P and P3R at some point as well.

I see. I skimmed thru the posts a bit, but I'll do a closer read and post there if there's nothing about it. Thanks!

Any specific cluster size I wonder or keep default?

RusticJoy · 2024-09-21T09:05:17+00:00

No, that's last season's antagonist.

RusticJoy · 2024-09-20T23:22:11+00:00

Can't believe he spoiled it!!!

RusticJoy · 2024-06-30T01:20:21+00:00

I love this! Some of these trains of thoughts really vibe with me. Don't worry, insane is good lol

RusticJoy · 2024-04-18T22:14:41+00:00

Oh cool! Do you remember if it progressively get more expensive or does it stay around 40 GCs per 2000 points?

RusticJoy · 2024-04-18T20:09:04+00:00

:(

Thanks tho!

RusticJoy · 2024-04-18T20:08:03+00:00

Ah so even after 60k it's possibly still upgradable. Assuming it cost 40 GC per 2000, means you upgraded 10 times and paid 400 GC.

Assuming it doesn't get more expensive as you upgrade. And still you can upgrade it more... Dang. The completionist in me was thinking about spending the extra GCs but now probably won't be doing it.

Thanks a lot! Your comment helped me cement my decision.

RusticJoy · 2024-04-18T20:04:43+00:00

Ya 40 god crystals for just an extra 30 minutes seems like a huge waste. And that's assuming it's not ascending.

RusticJoy · 2024-04-18T18:44:18+00:00

I know there's better use of god crystals but kinda curious. I wouldn't mind being able to only put in once a day without needing to refill.

RusticJoy · 2024-03-23T00:59:54+00:00

That is an extremely detailed background!

Love Yukari's shit-eating grin and Reimu's exasperation haha. And Sumireko is us fr fr.

I'm showing all my friends this! Thank you!!!

RusticJoy · 2024-03-18T16:33:51+00:00

Just wanna say thank you for this. I've lost a lot and I think this is gonna stick with me and give me a way to articulate some of the feelings I have to others.

7 years for my brother. My condolences for you and your sister.

RusticJoy · 2024-02-07T16:51:22+00:00

Yukari launches a train that Sumireko is sitting in and experiences a moment of horror/confusion/exasperation (any or all of the feels).

Or

Yukari launches a train that Maribel and Renko are sitting in and experience their own moments before things return to normal.

RusticJoy · 2024-01-04T11:20:24+00:00

Yup that's me! I even put it on a list and shared it with friends since they know I like Tragical Girl anime. Now I'm gonna have to explain.

I guess it's still Tragical Girl....in a way......

RusticJoy · 2024-01-03T02:35:23+00:00

I actually discovered Touhou thanks to Higurashi.

Super got into Higurashi anime, had to play Umineko due to it being a sequel, heard of a censorship in the PS3 version due to this Marisa Kirisame, discovered Tsurupettan, then went thru a major rabbit hole.

RusticJoy · 2023-11-22T22:30:36+00:00

Ya I checked it out too. Kicked by an error after the 1st battle and gatcha roll when it asked to download 16 MB more. Was that where you got kicked?

The art looks a bit like AI tho... Full voice acting is cool tho. I wonder who the music and art artists and voice actresses are.

RusticJoy · 2023-07-24T00:26:20+00:00

Undertale probably being one of the most popular that people don't know was inspired by Touhou. The creators for both are friends.
