What’s a game you can 100% without hating by the end?

As per title. Most computer games these days are made with such unnecessary padding that I want to murder the devs or myself by the end. See, for example, Hyrule Warriors, the 100% 1000 Hour Nightmare, the Review.

The second game I ever 100%ed was Arceus and I still can’t stand the thought of picking it up again, years later. The first game was Horizon Zero Dawn, which is still fun.

We didn’t 100% yet, but we did just beat Super Mario Wonder. It’s a lot of fun if you like the side scrollers.

Escape velocity (1996, ambrosia software game for macOS). My favorite computer game of all time I think.

Check out Endless Sky if you haven’t heard of it

I heard about it when it was in development but hadn’t followed up! I still have escape velocity on my 2024 Mac but maybe I will check I out the loving homage.

Nyxon ,

Yes!

Love that game, and the sequels; EV Override and EV Nova. I was looking for a game that played like Starflight, a PC game from the 80s, found EV and was pleasantly surprised.

Though I do hold Starflight in higher regard than EV. It deserves a solid remake.

I had a ton of fun 100%ing Super Mario Odyssey. There’s a big amount of post-game content and a good amount of variety in exploring the different levels. Some of the moons need a guide though since they can be reallt vague.

I felt differently, so many of those stars and collectibles are uninspired filler. Trying to 100% it led to me significantly disliking it. They could have cut so much and it’d be a much tighter experience.

Fuck that jump rope moon, though.

I’m the kind of person who has no issues with moving on from a game with only 20% of the achievements/trophies unlocked after beating the final boss. If it’s not fun, it’s not fun.

I think the only two games I set out to 100% were probably Super Mario World, or Donkey Kong Country 2.

cyberpunk007 ,

I did dk1, dk2 and super Metroid from that era. Great games. Dk2 is unreal, top 20 for sure.

Peffse ,

There were WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too many secret caves in DKC1 to try to 100%. I did try to complete DKC3, but I don’t think I achieved it.

cyberpunk007 ,

Ah dk3, the one I’ve NEVER beat. I always set out to do it and grow bored first. I think by the time I started playing that really good games existed like halo and the like.

cuchilloc ,

I really enjoyed Hades

DragonTypeWyvern ,

I didn’t hate Hades, I liked it a lot, but I absolutely would have hated 100%ing that game.

This is why FSM made YouTube clips of secret endings.

At least personally, its a lot of the shorter, gameplay-focused games that always leave me wanting more, or wanting to further improve, without having some unbeatable new-game++++++++ mode or anything overly RNG based.

A couple games I’ve 100%ed that still have significant bonus/optional content outside the main plotline include:

  • Inscription - Willingly played through the story twice and spent nearly as many hours on the bonus new-game+ mode. Super solid gameplay, that while well explored in the base game, leaves plenty of room to further experiment and perfect your strategy.
  • Just Cause 3 - while there is a ton of bonus content, its not overly hidden, and the core gameplay is solid enough that challenges feel fun and rewarding, while travelling around gathering collectables is satisfying in a chill, podcast-listening, but not unengaging way.
  • Hotline Miami - after completing the game, I wanted to go back and get a A+ on every level because the gameplay was fun and I felt I still had more room to grow. “The puzzle” wasn’t as fun, and I did use a guide, but I was just happy for any reason to play through the game again.
  • Wolfenstein the New Order - again, just a solid gameplay loop that made me want to keep playing, with bonus objectives that worked as an objective rather than a chore. Also, unlike later ID shooters, it doesn’t have the “beat the whole game without dying” achievement, which just feels too punishing over mistakes that may be minor or downright unfair.

I 100℅ed sekiro and another crabs treasure, both games (especially sekiro) sort of had grindy achievements, but the gameplay was so good it still ledt me wanting more

Pyro ,

It’s interesting that you mention Just Cause 3 because even though the campaign is a lot of fun, I didn’t enjoy completing all the vehicle challenges.

PlzGivHugs ,

The vehicle challenges were definately the weakest part, but on average, I still enjoyed them. In particular, a lot of the wingsuit courses and land races were fun, and actually took advantage of the game’s strongest elements.

EarMaster ,

The last game I did 100% was Psychonauts 2. I loved the world and after playing the fantastic story it was a good reason to spend some extra hours revisiting the levels.

Elden ring. It’s atmosphere and exploration just draw you in. Huge areas that are technically secrets. I haven’t 100% it because of being locked out of certain questions but I’m sure I’m close. The gameplay is just so addicting to me I’ve got over 700 hours in it.

Auster , (edited )

If, by 100%, it includes 100% of the achievements/trophies, I can only remember Mary Skelter Nightmares¹, Odin Sphere Leifthrasir and Starbound as games I still enjoy after doing 100%.

¹og version; dunno if the updated version bundled with Mary Skelter 2 has trophies (didn’t stop me from finishing it on the Switch, though e.e")

Artemis ,

Baldur’s Gate 1 & 2…the exploration of the wilds while so vulnerable in the first game is something I’ll never get bored of while the second game just takes it to a whole other level with your power growing so immense. They still totally hold up with the extended editions!

Those games are so littered with trash mobs that I definitely didn’t have the stamina for 100%.

100 ,

i would recommend anyone playing them to use the teleport cheat to skip the slow map movement and backtracking

saves several hours in a playthrough easily
