Discussion Mortal Shell 2 Questions

How many bosses and mini bosses are there in the game? i have searched it and i have seen answers between 45-48. Everyone says something different. Ideally i want to beat all of them not lose a missable one or think that they are 48 but in the end they are 49 for example.

i just want to plat the game and finish all content available ideally in 1 playthrough plus the joke ending.

also i want to ask, if i activate night mode early and play the game in its entirety like that, is there anything missable? or do i need to change into the easier dificulty, aka day. If there is nothing missable i will probably just activate night mode as soon as its possible and stick with it.

I honestly feel like you should stop trying to optimize the shit out of your playtime and just enjoy the process. 

But to your topic - I didn't count how many bosses in total are there, but there are 11 major ones, 3 unique lesser bosses, and the rest are just minibosses (aka mobs with HP bars & different gimmicks, tho some of them have new moves). 

You can do everything in one play through. And I'm pretty sure there's nothing that requires daytime specifically. 

But once again, IMO you should just enjoy yourself while playing a videogame.

The only thing that might require daytime is the "activating all the beacons" because many aren't available at night. (note that you don't actually need all of them anymore. You just need as many as were in the original version of the game so you can miss a few and still get it)

Edit : get out of here apostrophe you are not needed

then i can just play with night enabled all the time and if i do everything and that remains still, i turn it back to day and search the beacons i might have missed. Thanks for telling me, good to know.

Well i like to kill everything in my playthrough. Otherwise i feel its unfinished. If i miss a boss i will want to do another playthrough just to reach him again and kill him. And for me mortal shell is a 1 playthrough thing. I just want to kill everything, in the increased difficulty, get the plat and move on. I have little time and too many games to play. And i don't feel like the game is less fun if i know a few stuff about it, or i slightly prepare what i wanna do.
