But what if you can the chicks AND the gold.
You sell elderwood, find the chests and grind along the way; cuz in this game gold ain’t that much of a vital necessity after the beginning.
And if you wanna get most of the gold you would require stealing from innocents and not, pimping and making bad deals with NTR antagonists (and bad deals in general).
Anyways your optimal way in a couple of updates shall be twisted a lot.
Melissa will add a new treasure mechanic and the rework will fix exp scaling, add more enemies, balance quests et cetera.
And sadly there isn’t really an achievement or a checkpoint for data completionist
