But with the next item, I didn't get lucky:( Damn, I thought you needed the Admiral's hat for the bib, not the Captain's. That's why I decided I could safely hand it in at the altar. Ugh, why didn't I realize that sooner...
In general, 6k experience points help, but they're not critical. I think I can replay the first couple of months. It just doesn't feel right. Perfection is achievable.
And from the point of view of pure playability, it doesn't really matter, of course. The main work is already done.
That is, the difference isn't significant, whether you have 500 vivas or 560, but these quests always help for speedruns. Just a subtle hint)
PS Damn, why do I keep getting sidetracked into the topic of speedruns?...
