Hey does anyone know the consequence for not finishing all side content? How does it affect late game? I don't mind spoilers.
The walkthrough explains that some of the storylines will not get any closure and that some scenes will be missed out on if you don't finish them prior to going to the mall. If you're worried about not getting them on time, then don't worry; you will essentially be given a Groundhog's day loop on the day the mall becomes available, letting you take as long as you want to finish up the storylines and see them through to the end. The biggest loss you could have is missing out on skill and power points that are necessary for certain story branches later on.
