The Q&A thread is a curated subset of the help hub, with developer responses mixed in. If the team has answered a question about a specific route or boss, it usually lands here and gets pinned.
What the opening post says
Roughly: “We’ve created a dedicated Q&A sub-forum where you can get answers to your questions, share information with fellow players, and help each other while enjoying the game.”
Notably the post says “questions and answers will greatly help us make the full release of the game even more polished.” That’s NDEV asking the community to use the thread, not just consuming it. Two-way street.
What’s actually answered there
From what’s public:
- Build / loadout questions — “Is Kisha’s claw tree better than Erased Shards into blink timing?” type Qs. Devs sometimes jump in.
- Region route — players asking which region to do first after Yamator’s wings. The wiki covers the intended order; the thread covers what to do when you’re lost.
- Achievements — “This Settles My Debt” comes up a lot. Hidden triggers, missable chains. The achievements guide covers the explicit ones.
What does NOT get answered here: bug reports (those go to the bug forum — see Steam), and price / DLC questions go to your Steam store page or to Com2uS support.
Top replies that are worth reading (community picks)
Three threads from the visible top 3 — paraphrased, not pasted:
- Q: “Can I redo Cabitz allocation?” → Yes, but it’s awkward. There’s a small one-shot per save file.
- Q: “Is there a way to skip the Origin Laboratory chase sequence?” → No. Sit through it. It’s the only major scripted sequence in the early-mid game and it’s there for pacing, not as a puzzle.
- Q: “Best early-region route if I want Story Ending B?” → Aphoti → Strigine → Moss Cave → Stone Sanctuary. That’s the route that sets up the B-route flag before Origin Lab. The walkthrough hub covers the alternatives.
That’s about the granularity the thread runs at. Useful, actionable, low-noise.
Why this wiki page
Because the Q&A thread’s signal-to-noise ratio is way higher than the General Discussions forum. 31 replies is small enough to actually read. If you’re playing Fatal Claw and you have one question about progression, this is the place to look. If you’ve got a question to post, it’s where to put it.

If your question is more “I can’t get past this” than “how does this system work,” the Help Hub thread is often faster than the Q&A forum.
