How often do you 100% your games

>>716365523 (OP)
You should only 100% your games if it's a meaningful experience (which it hardly ever is). If it's a shallow grind, then you're better off spending your time playing another game instead.

I already have dozens of games in my backlog. Why would I waste 20 hours trying to squeeze the last bit of mediocre gameplay from a game I've already beaten, when I can move on to something else?

>>716365523 (OP)
i don't have that flavor of the autism

Like maybe 1 out of every 100 games.

idk, i like 100 percenting some games like the Dishonored franchise and other games I tend to do it to squeeze as much value out of it that I can.

>>716365523 (OP)
i only do it if i really enjoy it and want a reason to spend more time playing it, but only if i deem it humanly possible

>>716365523 (OP)
almost never but I always try to go for 97%

>>716365523 (OP)
This is exactly how I feel towards Odyssey, fun to beat, an absolute slog to complete.
Now that I think about it this also applies to other 3D Mario games to a lesser degree, 64 and Sunshine has the repetitive red coins and the god awful 100 coin stars. The Galaxy duology also has the purple coins stars which are also boring as hell.

Almost never. I've only 100% completed games that don't take long to do that like the Hotline Miami titles. If it's some 100-hour RPG, there's no chance in hell I'm doing all that side shit.

>>716365523 (OP)
I don't think I ever have. It's just not fun.

>>716365620
I'll never understand how my friend could stand 100%ing the old FF games. The amount of obscure nonsense and useless shit to do felt like such a bore. He was pretty pathetic, because he'd more do it as an achievement in of itself. Like getting all the achievements meant something.

>>716365523 (OP)
I will use 100%ing as an excuse to keep playing a game I enjoy once I finished but I've only 100%ed maybe 40ish games and will stop once it gets tedious.
I will however, return to many games to pick up where I left off on 100%ing them.

>>716365523 (OP)
I used to when I was a bored teenager with nothing to do. Can't image why I would do that now

it was pointless, but I tried to get as many trophies as possible in SSBM, I think I was 4 short
one miraculous trophy awarded for some very specific circumstances? maybe not getting hit during Very Hard mode? and a few memory card related game saves for trophies

>>716365523 (OP)
The only game I ever 100 percented was Lego Star Wars as a wee lad

>>716365983
I should add that some games are so easy to 100% and so good, like Hit and Run or Bully, that I'll 100% them each time I replay them because why not.

>100% Star Ocean: the last hope
Never again

I don't do this to myself and if I do, it's likely to be something like small and achievable I can whittle away at overtime like super mario world or DKC2, not some megagame like RDR2 or elden ring.

Not often. For regular games I just beat it, don't care about collectibles. For shorter games sometimes I am for a 1CC.

>>716365523 (OP)
I used to be really into achievement hunting and getting 100%, I stopped once I realized I wasn't having fun most of the time doing busywork.

Even now, if on the off chance I decide to do it with a game I really like, I'll end up regretting halfway through.

>>716365523 (OP)

drugs encourage you to do pointless things, but at least video games prove to everyone you did it

Never have 100% completed a game on the save file but I have gotten all of the achievements in at least 12 games.

>>716365523 (OP)
The only games I got 100% for was Elden Ring and a couple of indie games that dont require anything for 100% beyond completing each level.

>>716365864
3D world takes, the cake,

It is my favorite mario game but having to beat every single fucking stage 5 times to 100% and not dying more than 5 times btw is absolutely idiotic.

>>716365523 (OP)
I only look to truly 100% games I thoroughly enjoy
everything else I collect whatever achievements I want then dip

>>716365523 (OP)
Never. I’m not sure what the requirements actually are, but I could see doing it for certain games. Like Stellar Blade, I can’t really conceive of anything I didn’t do besides collect a few cans

>>716366123
>any% star ocean

>>716365523 (OP)
I play games until I am done with them. That includes not even finishing them. Last game I 100% was the DeS remake

>game has NG+
>it adds absolutely nothing to the experience outside of a single new sidequest near the end

>>716365523 (OP)
Not often. According to Steam, the only challenging game I 100%'d was Taiji. Before that, probably NieR Replicant and a couple PS2 games. If 100%ing just requires more of the core loop I enjoy I might try it but it usually doesn't so I don't

>>716367085

>>716365523 (OP)

It's been fun but at this point its a labor of love.

>>716365523 (OP)

>>716365523 (OP)
Out of something like 90+ steam games I have only ever 100%'d one, Into The Breach, because cheevos unlocked new content in the game, and I liked the game a lot so I wanted all the content.

Modern Nintendo is like that now. Used to 100% all their games before they switched to open-slop formula.

>>716365523 (OP)
>How often do you 100% your games
I am autistic about getting all achievements, for which I use the following criteria
- Generally single player games only, If I can get all achievements on a multiplayer game that's nice but it's not something I try to get
- I enjoy the game enough that I am either willing to play through the entire game again or willing to keep playing from an earlier save to get missing achievements
- Achievements are not too grindy (kill 100,00 enemies when you barely get to 1/10th of that in a regular playthrough)
- Achievements are not too estoeric to the point that having a wiki on hand won't really help
- Game doesn't keep updating with new achievements long after I stopped playing (Terraria and Stardew are examples of this)
- Game comes with achievements in the first place, no retroachievements
I don't really 100% games if that isn't required for getting all achievements

>>716365523 (OP)
I 100% Rogue Galaxy and I regret it to this day.

>>716367324
Starcraft 2 has a really retarded achievement system. You'd think doing all the missions on Brutal difficulty would be the hard part, but no, HotS and LotV have some inane requirements for achievements. Especially HotS.

>>716365523 (OP)
rarely on my first period of playing a game. most recently did this with starship troopers: terran command where i beat the game then very shortly afterwards went back for any achievements i missed.
typically i'll do it over a few year period for stuff like half-life 2 where i just focus on a few achievements per yearly/seasonal playthrough.
if it's a game with any sort of co-op/multiplayer, almost never since they typically have impossible achievements (meet the devs, upload a video and get 1million views, etc), so painstakingly boring, or 500+ that i'll never bother.

>>716365523 (OP)
TOTK burned me out when I did every shrine, 100% probably sucks.

The games I usually play I can't 100% as that's not possible.

>>716365523 (OP)
This is every fucking Yakuza/LaD game, fucking rid of mahjong already. It's not even well programmed. Or at least completely eliminate it from completion lists

>>716368841
BotW and TotK for every shrine doesn't even take that long, what? If you mean 100% with all Korok seeds, only the mentally retarded choose to do that.

>>716365523 (OP)
Almost never. I have other games to play and no desire to see every minor detail in a single video game.

>>716365523 (OP)
100%ing a game should serve as an "excuse" to continue playing it should you want to
Like oh, I really like rondo of blood, let me play it again so I can rescue all the maidens! Do I care about rescuing maidens? Not really, but I do want to play rondo of blood, so this is a good outlet for doing so, a way to channel the replayablility.
Scoring/speedrunning serve the same function, just that collecting things (even ranks) is feels more tangible than a arbitrarily faster time or higher score
I guess in something like an rpg it could serve as an excuse to hang out in the world you like longer

have nearly a thousand hours in slay the spire and i'm probably never getting 100% because i dont care enough to skip relics or uncommon cards for the challenge cheevos

>>716368894
>fucking rid of mahjong already
have you tried getting good?

>>716365523 (OP)
Literally never. Cheevos are gaytarded.

>>716365523 (OP)

>>716369234
That reminds me, I play Tavern Rumble a fair amount, but I'm not doing challenges 10+ (on this save after the last one corrupted) because flooding your deck with junk cards is anti-fun.

>>716365523 (OP)
I've only 100%ed a single game in my life, but admittedly Star Ocean 3 was a fucking hell of a game to 100% with its more ridiculous battle trophies (achievements before achievements became a thing).
Including "beat the final boss with the starting weapon" (or in other words beat God to death with a lead pipe) which stood out to me for how inherently absurd yet trivially easy it was. (Just reforge your basic bitch lead pipe with +6000 ATK. Orichalcum, it breaks the game.)

>>716365523 (OP)
Rarely, only when the objectives are different experiences like alternate endings or paths.

>>716365523 (OP)
When I enjoy the game in itself and going for 100% gives me more of the stuff I enjoy and not a tiny slice of the game being replayed every ten seconds on loop.

Trying to 50/50 Dead Rising made me nearly fall out of love with the game and why I don't go for all achievements in a game anymore.

I should've known I was doing something retarded when I was leaving my 360 on to sleep for 7 Day Survivor.

>achievement requires you to engage with some online minigame that's been shut down for years

The only game I've ever 100%'d is Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition. It was a matter of pride, as no one at the time had recorded doing it.

Game completion:
>Beat the game
>It's fun!

100% completion:

Only a puzzle game is worth 100%ing. Baba is You comes to mind.

>>716365523 (OP)
>>716365620
However for me it's like if it's just such a good game that I felt was worth every penny (rare) then the last 1% grind I don't care I'll do it just to show that I liked the game. But this is usually just 100% achievements not true 100%

most games are a slog to even finish any% these days

I'm actually kind of having a crisis about my gamerhood. Was I fake this whole time? Was I lying to myself?

>>716365523 (OP)
Why would you play a game if it isnt fun

do cheevos count in 100%ing?

>>716365523 (OP)
>100%
That's stupid zoomer lingo. It should be called "completing a game". There's a reason why players do everything in-game, so there's not reason to turn a number and symbol into a verb.

>>716365523 (OP)
The last game 100%ed was GTA3 on my PS2 some 22 years ago. I remember the ambulance and taxi missions being fun to do. Thanks for asking. Peace out.

>>716371879

>>716365523 (OP)
Very rarely. I love action games but I fucking suck at them.
And 100%ing them usually requires you to play perfectly without getting hit while constantly dealing with a bunch of spastic enemies.
If I were to seriously try to complete Dante Must Die/Non Stop Climax or Ninja Master I would probably start to hate those games.

>>716365523 (OP)

I almost never immediately replay a game after beating it, and I don't do stuff that's just an outright checklist grind, so very very rarely do I even come close to 100%

>>716372264
Getting all the cups and finishing 1st place in them is some of the most fun you'll ever have.
Beating the Story Mode on Very Hard so that you can get the racers for said cup runs will make you want to kill yourself.

If it's a game I genuinely love and enjoy, sure. I love Monster Hunter so I have no qualms doing crown farming and shit (and Wilds made it easier since you can just quickly check it or join other people's parties). It's rare for me to really go out of my way to 100% a game though.
While I do enjoy RDR2 a decent amount though, I can't imagine spending the time doing all the collectable bullshit. Do people even try that shit without looking up a guide?

>>716365523 (OP)
depends how long it takes to 100%.
if its like an extra few hours, then sure. if its another 10+ hours, then no thanks

7 years ago I posted my profile and anon said
>you only have 26% completion rate, you don't finish your games
Now I'm up to 46% just to show that guy

We are most old boomers here now so the answer in most cases is no. Simply not enough time and energy compared to cost.

Never, it's a waste of time

>>716365523 (OP)
if there's rewards for 100% completion I just download a full save (stellar blade lol)

I have literally never 100% any game I've played in the past 25 years.

I don't think I've ever felt fulfilled after 100%ing a game, in fact it's usually the opposite

No, thank you.

>>716365523 (OP)
Depends. If it's a game I've been playing on and off for a while, I'll usually stop at the final boss unless there's a bunch of content in the post game. If it's a game I blitzed to finish, I'm blitzing the 100% completion too, which is why I put like 100 hours into FF7R2 the week it came out.

>>716365523 (OP)

Except for CS2 which has a single achievement for completing a match, not even on my most played games. Conan is the closest I've ever gotten

I don't know what it is about RPGs, but I always seem to completely lose interest in them just as soon as I get to the final dungeon. All the protagonists get their bullshit stories resolved and finally rally together to face the final big bad, and I'm just like "Nah, I'm sick of all of you." If I do finish the game, it's usually with a deep resentment driving me to make sure I don't have cause to play it again.

>>716369179
>100%ing a game should serve as an "excuse" to continue playing it should you want to
/thread
It's something to do when you want to replay the game.

losing the game

This one was pretty easy to 100%
it kinda pisses me off that after capturing every bugsnax I found out you don't get anything for it, the last achievement is just for registering them all with your camera but you only need to capture the specific ones needed for quests

>>716365523 (OP)
Only if I really like the game. For example the RE4 remake.

>>716365523 (OP)
I tend to only make some effort to 100% it in short games or roguelikes/roguelites. Since I'm gonna replay it multiple times anyway, might as well add some extra challenge to it, like not getting hit, getting every collectible, etc.

Like to beat the game normally is like 6 hours but to 100% it takes 200 if you not some speedrun autist.

>>716379530
>but to 100% it takes 200
how

>>716365523 (OP)
Only when the game really resonates with me, which isn't very often.

The last game I 100% was Stellar Blade. Even then I hated the other two endings where you don't get 100% of Lily's trust and take Adam's hand at the same time, so I just used a save file to get those endings and beat the final boss that's exclusive to the worst ending (which turned out to be as easy as making it run and then you get all the achievements for it lol).

Still, I could see myself replaying the good ending to 100% for a good while because I like the game a lot. It's not something I do often nor care to do. I might try to do it with Nier:Automata and Nier:Replicant but if I don't at least I'll enjoy the games.

>>716374795
Lol based.

>>716366713
I don't think I've ever 100% any fromsoft game except sekiro. That's despite a cumulative 3k hours minimum across all the titles. I'm just not an achievement whore and stuff like pure bladestone and other retarded bullshit is dumb.

If I play a game to the end I'm 100%ing it unless there were bullshit undeclared missables, in which case I just uninstall it and leave a bad review and make up a bunch of shit about glitches and crashes, lost files, etc.

>>716365523 (OP)
If the "100% state" is anything deeper than getting the true ending, aka meaningless grind for shit that doesn't matter since you can't use it on anything, then I don't bother.

>>716365523 (OP)
have you ever looked at steam achievements? most people drop off after the first level. picrel has a 50% drop off by stage 3. i don't know why people beg for games to be 100s of hours long with copy pasted mediocre content when even the short games never get finished.

>>716371075
I come for the memes

>>716365523 (OP)
Trying for all items in Metroid Prime right now actually. Not too bad aside from some extremely bullshit collectibles that are easy to miss or you will have a lot of trouble finding without google which thankfully are very few.

>>716365523 (OP)
meanwhile some games 100% them is barely any more effort than playing them normally
Like Ratchet and Clank rift apart had like 2 hours of going back to 100% old areas before beating the game

>>716365523 (OP)
Never what am I a retarded nigger

Portal was very fun to 100%. Probably because the game doesn't drag on at all. The challenge levels were fun new puzzles in the familiar levels, and the gold medal on all of them is satisfying to get and display on my steam profile.

The only 2 games I 100% was E33 and Stellar Blade.

I've been thinking about this. I don't 100% games. But what does that mean? Wouldn't a "gamer" finish their games? It's been really bothering me lately.

I always see people post their platinum trophies and shit, and I couldn't imagine working that hard for it. Getting all 500 collectibles, grinding every item/character to level 100 for no reason and all that.

Think about it. "Work". I would consider doing as such "work". If you bring this up to "real gamers", they will insist it isn't work, and they had fun doing it. Not for me. If it isn't fun and it's "work" for me... what does that mean?

>Did you finish that game?
>Yes, I saw the ending on hard difficulty.
>But it says here 47% completion? You didn't finish it?
>I uhh... I guess not...

I love video games, don't I? I've played "through" 400+ of them. I'll take 3 hour long drives to see an arcade location test. I basically saved the "video game club" back in college... "president" 4 years... reluctantly.

But "finishing games is work"...

>>716365523 (OP)
I don't really see the point, I mean I try to experience everything a game has to offer, but some stuff is really grindy, poorly designed, or brutally hard for no reason, or is just a lot of extra fluff for no reason.

Like Spyro 2 and 3 for example. I think it is totally fine to try to go for 100% of all of the orbs/eggs but the gems and especially finding the skill points can be really tedious and don't offer much, even when considering Spyro 3's Super Bonus World is just a shitty rematch with the sorceress and the true ending.

I 100%'d Just Cause 2

No I don't know why

>>716373083
That isn't really 100%ing F-Zero GX.

To 100% that game you basically have to beat each cup with each machine on each difficulty, plus buying all of the items (excluding those locked behind region locks and cheat codes), and beating every story mode mission on each difficulty.

If you think Mission 7 on Very Hard is bad, try making someone do Emerald and Diamond cups on Master with Blood Hawk, Silver Rat, and Cosmic Dolphin.

I liked Dark Souls 1 so much that I did a challenge run to obtain every item in the game on a single character, I played to NG+4 for sufficient boss souls to craft all boss weapons and farmed all the random drops in the entire game, it was actually fun. I made comprehensive lists with pen and paper back then lmao.

I think the last game I 100% was Crash 1 from the N.Sane trilogy.

Really, in most games, 100%ing is just tedious as fuck. Even in games you love, you'll probably have to interact with the game system you like the least a ton, and even the game system you like will become monotonous work. But I guess this all assumes you meticulously

I don't play games which take more than a single digit number of hours to complete. They're always shit.
If the game can be 100% complete in up to 9h59m, I'll do it. Otherwise I'll just beat the game normally.

Like five games.
If you want a fun one that's easy to do (and you might wish there were more at the end); GUN(2005).

The closest I came to 100% was super metroid and zero mission, but I couldn't be assed to do it because I would always just want to play the game again or minimum% speedrun them.

>>716365523 (OP)
Only if the optional shit is actually fun to complete. If 100%ing it involves any of the following
>get 999 of item xyz with 0.01% drop rate
>beat boss rush gauntlet on nightmare mode
>see timed easily missable scene
Then I won't bother

I'm no longer a kid with a lot of free time and one or two games that had to last me until my next birthday or christmas.
Grinding for 100% is just not for me anymore. I could barely finish BotW, let alone getting around to gathering and doing every single shit.

>How often do you 100% your games
When I finished a game and I'm only missing one or two achievements and I got all the other ones without even trying then I might get the remaining one or two if they're easy to get but that only happened once so far.

Other than that I simply do not care about them. I am able to set my own goals and get my own fun out of video games. Someone providing me with a list of arbitrary goals doesn't interest me at all, I play however I want.

>>716365523 (OP)
Almost never.

Unironically REvelations.
Main campaign was dogshit.
The raid mode was great. I completely 100% that shit on 3DS.

>>716365523 (OP)
I get close with games I'm enjoying. I'm replaying Death Stranding right now, and I'm determined to 5 star everyone. It's not true 100%, but it counts for me.

God no. Especially since "achievements" these days are collecting 100 gizmos or beating the developers in an online pvp match.

>>716366763
3d world is kind of meant to be played with 3 other people, so you get 4 completions in 1 go.
But yeah, Ill take my one and call it a day.
Nintendo games used to be great fun to 100% but the switch gen they really pushed it a bit too far

>>716365523 (OP)
DBZ Kakarot is hellish to 100%.

>>716385689
Raid Mode was the most fun I had on 3DS. Was the console/PC port Raid Mode as active and fun?

>>716365523 (OP)
The last game I've gone out of my way to 100% was Sonic Adventure 2 in like, 2016

>>716386367
it was just the same. Just with some extra playable characters or some shit. Couldn't get around to 100% on PC too. Got my fill with 3DS and kinda felt more meaningful to clear it all on the awful controls and tiny screen.

>>716365523 (OP)
god, there are quite a number of games I absolutely ruined for myself by trying to 100% them. I enjoyed ni no kuni to a degree playing it normally. However, the 100%? It's flaws become glaringly obvious and you realize it's actually pretty poorly designed.

didn't quite ruin it, but KH Re:Coded is also a game that's pretty good if you just finish it and do a couple of the extra stuff. But then you go for 100%? You start wondering why this was the series you developed a life long obsession for. Combat is real good, some of the best in the series despite being on the nintendo ds, but it just doesn't make up for having to repeat the episodes over and over again.

Depends on ease, reason, and favoritism. The Binding of Isaac for example, I've got it 100%'d, and that's no quick or simple task. It's a favorite of mine I'd play often though, and goals are basically "beat every path every way, do some funny stuff, see every item". I naturally gain progress with anything I do, and those asks, many as they are, encourage me to engage with everything the game has to offer. On the other hand achievements that're time sinks for the sake of it, some random impressive number perhaps, that's a waste if it's not proportional to the others. Games that give you a "hard mode" but overdo it like say, beat the full campaign only with headshots, I don't wanna fucking bother. And games that have very simple and easily attainable asks but I'm not all that into, I'm not driven to go back into it just to say I fully beat it. All this text to say I'll 100% any game I like that puts thought into what that means and doesn't bust my balls for wanting it.

I used to be an achievement slut because I had no money and making a number next to my name go up felt good. Don't care about that stuff at all now.
I got all achievements in Elden Ring because it was fun. Before that, the last game I 100%ed was Ninja Gaiden II. And I've finished Mario 64 with all stars and some other platformers and puzzle games and shit.
I really like JRPGs and would probably 100% some of those for fun but basically all of them have some stupid quest where you need to talk to a guy outside a cave but only at night and it has to be raining and it can't be before you've beat the boss to the area and you need chicken soup in your inventory and it has to be Thursday in real life and if you miss the quest then you're locked out of it for the entire game. This shit is just obnoxious.

Katamari damacy is all fun and games until they ask you to do a cowbear level

>>716382000
Actually the best reply to that post

>>716365620
100% a game used to actually have meaning before achievements
Now it's just completing your designated checklist

>>716365523 (OP)
very rarely, 100% usually means picking up some garbage like TACOs and nobody's got time for that

>>716372756
Retarded parrot.

Only when it's something I can brag about.

>>716365523 (OP)
Pretty much always unfortunately. Sometimes it's fun and completely worth it, and sometimes it completely ruins the game for me (I probably would have enjoyed TotK if I hadn't spent way too many hours of my life fully exploring the boring depths.)

>>716365620
Some people do it to compensate the innate desire to do "work" by doing inane menial busywork and checklists.
There are some games worth 100%ing though and i'd argue there are those games i only enjoyed when going for full completion since only then the full gameplay unfolded and the game allowed me to do what i want

>>716369179
This, i always go for cheevos when still feeling like playing the game. I will only do something tedious that i don't feel like doing if it's the literal last thing to 100% completion

Khazan was an 'easy' 100% because all I needed to do was beat the game once and go into NG+

>>716365523 (OP)
I get all achievements if I really liked the game. I have 97 perfect games on Xbox and 57 on Steam.

>>716372264
I didn’t enjoy the effort it took to 10 star sh2 but I did enjoy playing with the green hyper spray after

>>716365523 (OP)
34 games out of a total of 742 (that’s less than 5%).
Favorite ones for 100% completion were the original Spyro trilogy (especially 1 and 3) and Batman: Arkham Asylum
The most boring ones were Crysis 3 and Valkyria Chronicles 2
