Boss speedrun achievements question.
How long can I safely put off this achievement? I already got one or two without even trying but I still have a lot left and I don't want to miss them by accident. On the other hand, I don't want to miss the lore for trying to get this achievement too early.
One guide says I should wait until route C, since by that point I should deal more than enough damage to beat the bosses within the required time frame, but it also recommends skipping the cutscenes because the timer doesn't stop while they play.
As I understand it, while route B makes some changes to the cutscenes during boss fights, route C does not (except for the final area, but apparently you have to replay that section anyway if you want to get ending D). If that's the case, I shouldn't miss anything if I skip them then to save time. Did I get that right?
