* Why can accuracy-reduction debuffs and blindness cause Apollon / Sagittarius Shot to miss, even if the debuff/ailment was applied ''after'' the arrow was already launched?

** Maybe they heard that {{Ridiculously Cute Critter|s}} tend to become series mascots, and want to make sure they're ''[[MemeticTroll unforgettable]]''?

* Why do squirrels love to steal [[EscapeRope Warp Wires / Ariadne Threads]]? Do they need them for something? And what about those Fire Squirrels in ''EOV''? Just what made them so salty towards adventurers that they have to go and burn up harmless escape tools?

** It's probably too late at this point for Atlus to remake it on the 3DS when the 3DS is going out of style. While Atlus is no stranger to releasing games on current-generation-minus-1 platforms when the current generation is a few years old (''VideoGame/{{Persona 4}}'' was released two years into the [=PS3=]'s life, ''VideoGame/{{Persona 5}}'' got a simultaneous [=PS3=] and [=PS4=] release three years after the latter hit the market, ''VideoGame/DevilSurvivor2'' was released a year after the 3DS, ''Nexus'' got its Western releases two years after the Switch's debut), starting development on a ''3 Untold'' is likely considered AwesomeButImpractical by Atlus at this point.

Most likely, they either had a choice between ''3 Untold'' or making ''Nexus'' [[MilestoneCelebration just in time for the series' 10th anniversary]].

** Alternatively all of that was remembered. Call in a lone explorer, [[spoiler: have them map out the ruins of the area and figure out if the Gungnir is going to go off, kill the guy he hired with nobody else aware of Gladsheim, take the maps to get to MIKE and shut him and the Gungnir down]]. The Highlander getting a party and needing to poke around in Yggdrasil to progress were unexpected problems to the plan. [[spoiler: Lack of communication between facilities is to be expected looking the series over, since other than Etria and Gotham no region ever came to the same conclusion on how to manage a rogue Yggdrasil, if they even came up with one at all. Even regions that had a plan were running conflicting redundancies, immortality and human sacrifice seals for High Lagaard or the Warped Savior and fragmenting Yggdrasil for Tharsis.]]

*** It does not answer the question of "how will it work on non-*DS platforms?" though.

*** It does not answer the question of "how will it work on non-*DS platforms?" though. As for my answer/guess to my own question, I get the feeling Atlus will just make a spinoff series that doesn't involve player cartography.
