The Last Poster Wins [v26]

Golden Deer is the only route I’ve played thus far but I do plan to try and play all of them eventually.

Yeah I'm kind of a completionist myself. If I got it I'd wanna do all routes.

[Shruikan]

I mean the routes in Three Houses are all so different that I get them impression that they intended for you to do them all. Case in point, I still don't know half of the plot despite finishing two routes already.

I used to be a completionist when... games were shorter. XD

I do try to at least beat the game before uninstalling it and putting it to rest for good. But sometimes even that is tricky if the game is really long.

[AD]

I am still a completionist, sadly

[Chakramaster]

When it became more complicated to get everything yeah. It made finding the time impossible xD

[Neo Emolga]

Yeah, I don't know where people get the time to put sooo much into certain games.

I've seen how many hours some people have put into Skyrim. It's... almost insanity. I have 35.5 hours put into it, which is like a five-minute bathroom break compared to some other people. XD

Yeah some games I've put waaaaaay too much time into those many years ago. Tales of Symphonia I remember I played about 10-15 times over. Just cause there were so many ways to play with secrets and extras. Especially on New Game+ cause of the bonuses you can transfer over. Also some of the alternate endings (though the "ending" is always the same).

I know a GBA game I played had well over 999hrs. I don't know how much cause it only kept track up to 999.99....and it got stolen. Final Fantasy 14 however....well over 1000 hours now. It'll only go up from here. It's one of my favorite games and stories to recent date with the latest expansion. Though I hardly have time for it like I used to.

Ooh man, for me, it was Battlefield 4. Something like 700 hours or so logged onto that until the game just fazed out and people moved on from it to Battlefield 1 or 5. But it was sooo, so good and so much insane fun. And all the expansions were pretty good and offered lots of unique and fun experiences. It was like a non-stop action movie and every game and map was insanely intense and exciting with a LOT of "holy crap" moments. And I had gotten darn good at it too, very often being at the top of my team in terms of score and KDR. Last time I checked, there were barely any servers running and then I got forever locked out of my Origin account because I tried to reset the password but then got no password reset email, leaving it in limbo forever more. Still, many good memories and exciting experiences with that game. I hope something else comes along that gives that kind of action-packed satisfaction someday.

I tried Battlefield 1 and 5 and eh, they weren't nearly as good (BF1 I had only tried the Beta, but it ran really poorly on my computer (before getting a new graphics card) so I ended up never buying the full game). For BF5, the maps just felt generic and there wasn't anything really unique about them while hit detection just felt weird and didn't seem to be as smooth as BF4 had it. I found pretty much all the guns to be clunky and unlikable as well. Not sure how many people still talk about it, but I don't hear anything about BF5 these days, so I'm guessing everyone has moved on from that, too.

Ye they definitely want you to play all four routes because otherwise you don't get the full story. I've heard there's like an ideal order to do the routes in to get the best picture of the story too but that's not the order I'm doing them in so oops.
