The Completionist in You
#9
I didn't say they had to be modern games you know. Ideally we're talking about games that you have played through many times before and you find yourself playing to completion every time you do, not "I did it one time" scenarios (although still feel free to discuss those).

Here's some of mine:

1) Every Kirby Game
Not really surprising coming from me. I adore the Kirby games and any excuse to play more of any game the better. In fact, after completing every possible objective in a game I will often make up my own challenges just for the heck of it. Literally the only thing I've never 100% completed in a Kirby game is the enemy card collectables in Kirby 64; and the only reason behind that is because they are randomly selected and that's bullshit. I don't like attempting to complete things that are completely luck based.

2) Every Donkey Kong Country Game
... with the exception of DKC1. You know, I've actually never found the DKC games to be all that difficult, I don't know why people complain about how hard they are. Finding and completing all the bonuses is not all that daunting of a task, and they generally feel very rewarding. The only reason I've never done it for the first title, as much as I love it just as much as the others, is just because the game doesn't really promote finding all the hidden bonuses at all, nor does it really reward you. I do try to find as many as I can each time, but there's little reason to try harder than that.

3) Super Mario World (SNES)
I mean, I guess I technically fullly complete every sidescrolling Mario game I play every time, but Super Mario World stands out the most to me due to the abundance of secrets and how not-obvious a lot of them are. And by 100% completion, I mean finding every single exit even if it's completely redundant.

4) Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
With most Zelda games, I'll usually end the game missing a couple heartpieces or a single upgrade or something like the Gold Skultula collectathon incomplete. This is either because I just couldn't find anything on my own and I hate having to resort to using the internet or the task is just to asinine. Majora's Mask, however, I have never had any trouble finding every single heartpiece, upgrade, and mask all on my own. It's a perfect balance of nothing being too much for you to handle figuring out on your own while still being just hidden enough to make you feel like you've really accomplished something when you do complete something. This is one of the reasons why Majora's Mask is one of my all time favorite games, because it does such a good job of making everything feel really satisfying.

5) Okami
Same situation as Majora's Mask, honestly, although satisfying to a bit of a lesser degree, as some of the things you have to do do feel a bit more like a chore.

6) Wario Land II
The second Wario Land game may possibly be my favorite in the Wario series. Finding every secret exit and finding every treasure is fun and exploring every possible storyline is goofy and enjoyable. There's not really much else to say.
