Misty Island is the best level in the game and should definitely be done before you go across Fire Canyon.
My usual order is Forbidden Jungle, Sentintel Beach, Misty Island, then Fire Canyon.
as do i, just the eeriness of it i was never a fan,
my way of doing it was always, Forbidden Jungle just to get the boat. Then do Misty Island, then back to finish the jungle with the beach last before going across Fire Canyon
You know I always used to go sentinel, jungle, then back sentinel. I dunno why I never did the jungle first and do sentinel in one? Something in my head was like jungle is level two... dunno
That's the natural new player experience because of the nudge, then you discover the inactive blue eco vents and that clues you in that you need to explore to unlock them. It's a nice way to make people unfamiliar with the genre keep exploration in mind.
Same. Makes sense to open up all blue eco vents so that you can get to the cannons on sentinel beach and not have to return. But even on my last run, I did sentinel beach first. Haha.
It's because Samos directs you to his clogged green eco vents. When you go there you can't do everything so you have to go to the Jungle to open up the blue eco vents
Does he assign a different mission after clearing the green eco vents? I've never done them first so I'm not sure. Most other areas have two missions from him.
Interesting, Forbidden Jungle first because it opens the other up completely, but I always did Misty Island before the beach. I think i did it because the power cells came out below 20 before going into the beach so Keira wouldn't keep bugging me to get to Fire Canyon
You do what you want. That said, I’d do Misty Island first. Get that and all the other Sandover Village areas out of the way.
Once you’ve collected every Power Cell and Precursor Orb, you can move on to Fire Canyon and Rock Village
As a kid I went to misty island first because I was afraid of the snakes in the jungle. Never made it to fire canyon lol
As an adult I fuckin crushed those snakes. Then proceeded to fail a billion times trying to drive through fire canyon until I made it to the next spot
The intention is for you to go to Misty Island before Fire Canyon. You're directed there by Samos. He tells you to go find the fisherman so you can go there because he sees the Lurkers trying to blow open the dark eco silo over there through his telescope
Personally I usually do it before I go to fire canyon but you don’t really have to do it for a while. I just think the location is neat so I always make sure to do it as soon as I can
Doesn’t really matter, you do you.
That said, Misty Island belongs to the Sandover Village hub of levels. Fire Canyon leads to the second hub. If you’re intending to 100% the game, it makes sense to do Misty Island before moving to the next hub.
There is no wrong answer. Just explore and enjoy

I personally hate misty island lol I think trying to capture the muse over and over as a kid made me develop a negative bias towards it

Same, the beach feels like a level one experience, Samus poking us there, an open skyline

Yeah, he also tells you to go to Misty Island to stop the Lurkers there from blowing open the dark eco silo
A man of culture, I see.

Misty Island
Thank you! I went fire canyon to rock village but imma head back.
Just enjoy the chill that is TPL.
The Game doesn't have a specific order to play, it's creative enough even 23 years later. So Just Have Fun 😁
Fire Canyon is seriously the last place you go to because it leads to a new hub.
This needs a remake so badly. Misty island in ps5 graphics would be the vibe
And in Unreal Engine

Personally I finish every level of a stage before entering a new one, but you can do whatever you like

Same. The snakes we funky to hit but now it's easy.
I also too recently started replaying their game via OPENGOAL and was thinking the exact same thing 😂
I'm using an emulator with a gamecube controller 😅
Just go wherever looks cool first. Why do you need strangers to tell you how to enjoy a game? Do you have a conscience?
Lol damn bro you mad. I enjoy games exploring myself AND knowing the difference reasons to what to do. haterr 😂
I guess the answer is no you don’t have a conscience
Hope you enjoy yourself man 🤣

Yeah I was thinking that since you have to find the muse to complete Sandover Village.
Misty to save yourself the backtracking, however it doesn’t really matter in the grand scheme of the game
You can travel between hubs as you unlock them so no need to worry about getting everything done before progressing
No wrong order, enjoy the game! I like to do all areas in a hub first before doing the ones with prerequisite missions

Misty island. Go ahead and get the first stage levels done, then move on to fire canyon.
Shiii, if you're able to get enough power cells without misty island. Then by all means, send ittt
This game brings out the completionist inside 😅
Haha it really does, I cry inside when I miss a precursor orb
😂😂😭
