Gaming Is anybody else an obsessive completionist?

[iamsubhuman]

I'm mostly talking about gaming here.

I just don't feel satisfied if I don't do everything or mostly everything. Like recently, I was playing GTA 5 (singleplayer) and I got the gold medals for all missions. I also grinded the stats to 100, got majority of the collectibles, revealed the whole map, and got 100% completion. I bought every property, every helicoper, plane, boat and got majority of clothing items (still missing a few). I pretty much have every singleplayer trophy besides the Director Mode stuff.

I'm about to play RDR2 and do the same thing. Also, I like to do something called a master save which is basically doing as much as possible as early as possible. For example, in GTA 5, I got max stats (Franklin only), every stunt jump, every under the bridge, and every knife flight before the first Simeon mission.

lol I think this might be some form of OCD

No

I have the Platinum trophies in both GTA V and RDR2
You grow out of it eventually, especially if you pirate games and play and different platforms

I wanted to catch all the Poke'mon on Peke'mon Yellow. But I don't think you can actually catch Mew unless you know about Glitching. This put me off being a completionist.

Although when they say catch, I think it makes more sense they mean "catch" as in, log everything as seen on the Poke'dex.

Yes, I can’t move on to another game if I haven’t 100%ed the one before it.

Trophy hunters and speedrunners are the truest of trucels in the gaming community. Our fixation on trying to achieve meaningless shit is worrisome.

I did this when I was a kid btw. GTA Series Videos helped out a ton. I was so stubborn even back then that I HAD to force myself to play with auto-aim off, making the accuracy medals nightmarishly difficulty.

I'm about to play RDR2 and do the same thing.

Fuck that game.

Did you do the stock market trading wig the assassination missions? I think I messed up a little bit and ended with 1.4 billion instead of the 2.1 billion you're supposed to get

I did the hidden packages thing back when I played GTA 3 and Vice City. Never again.

In 3 you get all the guns for free and that's it. In VC, you can get all the guns for free (and a Rhino tank) and the Hunter at Lance's house if you get them all. Got 99 out of 100 and went insane trying to find the missing one

 

[Suicide Sheep]

I was until I realized how pointless the grind is given that kids can effectively cheat them all with a simple Google search (SAM, mod menus, trainers and so on).

No games are boring after the main story line is done

 

[Wolnir]

I like going for achievements but I cared more when I played on PS4 because of the platinum trophies.
