      Mokap inclusion definitely felt the most like it was on this list just to fill a slot. Didn't seem deserved at all to be mad at Mokap, cause what else would have even made sense? Would he really want the coolest or most story relevant character to be the hardest to unlock? The logic is pretty shaky even just following Jirard's own words, let alone my own personal feelings on it.
      In fact, if I remember correctly, wasn't that the game where each fighter had three fixed combat styles to switch between, but with Mokap you could custom pick any three to use? That's pretty awesome and fun if you ask me.

      Yes, if a completion reward is amazing, there's not really a reason for people to complain about it, because it is a good reward. However, we've seen an incredible amount of examples of people complaining because other people are able to get that one amazing item or ability for 100% the game or completing an ardous task but they just don't have the skill or are not devoted enough to the game to earn it, so they blame the devs for gatekeeping the game's content, so idk...

    I remember me and my friend specifically forced ourselves to do the pits in super paper Mario as early as we could because we knew the rewards (which along with infinite flip time also grants all characters double damage) would only be fun to use if there was still game.
    We managed to beat all the pits by the time we started world 7. Still late game but that meant we had the entire underwhere/overthere (a pretty lengthy world for those who don’t know) and castle black (which isn’t as long but is easily the hardest world in the game) and all the post game stuff (minus the pits) to play with the new abilities.
    I don’t think it’s a bad completion award because you can get it whenever you want. It’s only bad if you get it after you’ve done everything else and have no more game.

    My thoughts on Hestu's gift is that it was actually trying to say something specific about the way the koroks are designed. They were designed with the idea that there'd be koroks in every single place, so that no matter where the player is, there's something to discover. That's the reason there are so many of them, and why they're just a bunch of random puzzles: it's to make sure the player always has something new to find. The player wasn't meant to find them all; they were there for the discovery, not for the hunt. I think Hestu's gift was actually meant as a discouragement from going overboard; the only way you'd collect all 900 seeds is if you're actively hunting them down, and so having the rewards stop relatively early and the final reward be a pile of crap was meant to discourage that mentality. Breath of the WIld was, I think, designed to be explored, not hunted. So in a way, I think it was actively meant to discourage completionists. Doesn't exactly excuse it from being really satisfying and alienating people who wanted to complete it, though.

    • @ObscureSwan
      @ObscureSwan 2 роки тому +45

      I agree, the 100% completion reward feels 100% (pun intented) accurate for what you did. You didn't find all 900 by pure happenstance, you actively looked up answers, taking away gameplay and exploration just to get a number. You turned this open world game where you were supposed to run around and have pure freedom into a list, "Ok, got Korok number 73 in Akkala, onto 74 and once I have that done I will go onto the next region. I sure hope I didn't miss one on my list cause that would mean I would have to reread someone else's guide on how to 100% complete the game to compare my completion list to their's". The reward is both literally and figuratively crappy cause you on your own free will, decided, "I don't want to play a game, I want to do a spreadsheet". Well congrats, you completed your spreadsheet and the best reward in life for completing a spreadsheet is actual money, but that usually contributes something to others.
      If they had even a slightly meaningful reward after it, many more people would complain cause now they HAVE to do the boring spreadsheet too in order to give Link a new selection of 4 poses in his camera or something.
      To put it simply, you didn't stop and smell the roses, you counted how many roses there were while walking.

    My favourite part about BoTW is that under certain circumstances you don’t even have to complete all of the shrines to get the shrine completion costume. If you get the DLC that adds more shrines, the shrines there add onto the normal shrine count, so you can reach 120 shrines, without having actually beat the original 120 shrines

That way the player knows they do not need to comb for more. That way, putting in more than necessary is a smart design choice, so that you don't have to literally scour every inch of the map in fine detail.

Mind you, I haven't even tried to max level every character, only farming rupees to get them all to level 100 minimum. I kinda feel completing every last little thing (especially the challenge modes) is a personal challenge for sheer stubbornness.

    the reason episode 400 is taking so long is because it's Xenoblade chronicles 1

      You can complete xenoblade 1 in less than 200 hours. Xenoblade 2 on the other hand took me 600+ hours and I still have the challenge mode to complete. Granted, that was during launch when the game didn't really respect your time. The DLC updates really speeds up the grinding now.

    The worst part about Hestu's gift is that it could have been really easy to make it worthwhile. The golden poop is a traditional good luck charm in Japan, so they could have made Hestu's gift actually affect your luck in the game by having you find better treasure in chests, for instance, or having enemy attacks randomly miss. But nooooo...

    My Number 2(The banner for winning, like the pokemon diploma) was the Congratulations Screen you get for beating all the hard mode maps in Grim Grimoire. I figured, it's a Nipoon Ichi title, they're known for insane tasks, followed by insane rewards(Favorite being the God Armor items from Guided Fate Paradox, as they were basically infinite super mode, along with stat ups), but here? You had a grand experience, beating maps that sometimes took the absolute focus, and then, it unlocks hard mode versions, that can take hours to beat each one due to retries and the like. Your reward? Some imps bring out a banner that says Congratulations in a few second cutscene, that you will never see again, and can be skiped.

      If Madden '08 ends up on one of these lists, Jirard will have summoned the almighty WOZ.

    I was surprised when you had pokemon on the list because I think the shiny charm is one of the best completionist items ever, but then I remembered they didnt do that in gen 1-4 (and half of 5)

    I still remember when I finally got all the korok and realize the reward was just a big poop, one of the worst reward ever.
