Here's an idea for a countdown, Most Heartwarming 4th Wall Breaking scenes. 4th wall breaking is usually made for comedy or psychological horror, but it's rare a game goes out of its way to actually make the player feels happy. The big one for me is Ar Nosurge which is full of those moments, but the biggest one is Cass reconnecting Delta to you for you to control as he, despite knowing-doing that means Delta will lose his memory again and will be at the mercy of your hands. Before she and Delta disconnected you from him at the end of Phase 2, but near the end of Phase 3 realize they need your special ability called Interdimend, essentially controlling a character from another world which enhances their abilities, and trust you enough to help save the world. She even acknowledges all the good you did when you did control Delta, the game allows you to do good deeds, and puts her complete faith with the option to promise her you will do your best, with her thanking you for it. . That's the one scene that made me sure I needed to see this through the end because of an in-game promise between you and the couple to help them.
Kingdom Hearts 3 has a great example of this. (SPOILERS) When Sora is briefly defeated by Xehanort during the final boss and you get a Game Over, suddenly you can hear Donald & Goofy calling Sora's name but the sound actually comes from the speakers in the PS4 controller. After that, when Sora's heart starts beating again the vibration of the controller is used to mimic the heart beats. It's a good example of a 4th wall break used for a really wholesome and empowering moment just before Sora, Donald and Goofy deal the final blow to the final boss of the game.
"No, I will subscribe to rabbidluigi." Ah yes, one of the great Roy quotes, right up there with "Roy's our boy" and "I'm only good for Triangle Adept 3 in Heroes."
And also, how can Roy subscribe to RabbidLuigi when RabbidLuigi's channel wasn't even a thing yet?! Whoa, did Roy travel through time and end up in a time where he COULD subscribe to RabbidLuigi?! Wow! Roy's still not that good though...
I remember being nine years old and my brother, my mom, and me trying for ages to get through Ghosts and Goblins and finally getting the last boss, just to see the villain snatch away the princess and start things all over. It was really satisfying when I got the real ending. I didn't even notice the spelling.
@Zachary Erickson Yep. She was cool. One day she came to school and got my brother and I out of class for a "family emergency". Once we got in the car she told us she had just gotten into Death Mountain in the original Legend of Zelda and wanted us to see it.
I'm alarmed that Jet Force Gemini isn't on here. Not only is the true ending locked behind 100% completion, but you actually don't get _any_ ending until you collect all the macguffins.
Final Fantasy X-2 gave me an idea for a list: Top five games where you can lose out on the true ending within the first minute of actual gameplay. Wonder how many of those there actually are, lol.
I remember finding out about the prologue 100% requirement for the first time. X-2 is so wack super fun game though, not gonna lie, just fuck whoever decided to make *every little thing* a requirement xD
“Glad the future Fire Emblem games just stuck to one ending.” Erm...Awakening has two endings, Fates has three and Three Houses has four, so idk what FE games you’re playing. Granted, they don’t require anywhere near as much BS to reach as Binding Blade’s ending, but still.
yeah, but it's fairly easy to get yourself all of these endings, which was kinda his main point they reduced the amount of endings and made sure it wasn't so ridiculously hard to get them that you wouldnt really need a walkthrough for them
There’s only one canonical ending to Awakening (sacrifice) and Fates (Revelations). Three Houses actually has four endings, but one is seen more of a “what if” than anything.
chillmadude I understand the point he was trying to make, since none of the endings in the current FE games require anywhere near as much hoops to jump through as with Binding Blade, but his wording was a bit awkward since it made it seem as if they only have a single ending. Which they clearly don’t.
Awakening hardly counts, as you don't really see anything different, and its done via a dialogue choice at the end of the game, essentially rendering it as flavor, and Fates is more 3/4ths of the game being different rather than alternate endings
I'll be honest, when you started talking about Fire Emblem, I thought you were going to go with Fates and the Revelations side, seeing as how that could be considered the true ending, except it's basically DLC, kinda like Asura's Wrath.
Here's a unique idea I feel everyone seems to overlook: Top 5 most tragic supplementary materials to a video game. Explanation: You finish a game, research it on its corresponding WIki for a video/playthrough, and bam! You discover a supplementary material meant to either continue the story after the beautiful end of the game-in-question that ends up breaking up a couple that you invested 160 hours into (Final Fantasy X-Will), a prelude setting up and expanding on the Hero's and villain's antagonism towards each other in-game because of a loved one's death (Tokyopop's Castlevania: Curse of Darkness manga), or a story featuring a cut cutscene from a popular rpg that helps clarify how a certain character endures after certain events (Xenoblade: The Secret File - Monado Archives). There's also some of Overwatch's Character story trailers, Darksiders: The Abomination Vault which greatly expands on Death and his deadly actions, etc.
When I got to No.1 and you started speaking about 100% completion, one game came to mind. Only for you to confirm my PTSD was not unjustified. I did that once and there is no amount of HD collections that will force me to go through that amount of bullshit again.
I’m currently playing through Fire Emblem The Binding Blade and yeah, the requirements for the true ending could have been better. Unlocking the first few Gaiden chapters wasn’t too bad, but there are some that are ridiculously hard to get. One involves keeping a certain enemy unit alive, but the problem is whenever he attacked one of my units, they’d counter and any critical hit would annihilate him. And then another one requires you to keep units that very well could have died at that point in the game. (I lost Sue before the Gaiden chapter she was required for and it took place over 10 chapters after you recruited her.)
The case with Asura's Wrath was exactly what happened with the Prince of Persia reboot released around the same time: they wanted to make more games, but the sales weren't great and the handheld sequel/spin-off was underwhelming, so they made a true ending DLC too
I guessed someone might comment about this, but I respectfully disagree. It seemed like a pain in the ass while I was going through it, but with hindsight I genuinely think it was worth it - part of the issue is you have no idea what you're actually working towards until it happens. It does get a little repetitive, but being able to shortcut half the quests because you already know how they end (especially the Ninja one) takes most of that away.
The first game that comes to mind is Rayman 1. In order to get the ending you need to find all hidden cages, in a game where simply getting through a stage is already hard. This feels like something that might work as a 100% completion bonus task, but not a necessary mission to reach the ending.
when it comes to 100% Endings, I feel it depends on *how* difficult it is to 100% or not. Like, Kirby 64's a good example where it isn't necessarily a bad thing, as getting all the crystal shards isn't that much of a pain
I'm not going to repeat the whole "why Three Houses footage tho" because it's been here a lot already, with good rights. Yeah, the endings are easy to get but it also doesn't make sense showing 3H when talking about future FE having more straightforward conclusions. Also, it's not even completely true if you count specific character interactions/endings to a "complete" ending, because in this case, let me tell you about one thing in terms of cryptic things you need to do to unlock the "best" ending: Radiant Dawn. Requirements: a memory card with a completed Path of Radiance savefile (so if you're playing on WiiU or a newer Wii model, you're instantly locked out) where specific characters have specific supports (Ike and Soren come to mind), playing on NG+ and keeping characters alive that die story deaths on a first playthrough, let characters have conversations on the battlefield that are incredibly dangerous to get because they often involve getting your fragile units deep into enemy lines (not to mention that you don't even know you need them, or that the characters can even talk to each other), bringing certain characters to the endgame, locking up precious space for your elite fighters and having them have conversations with bosses whose attacks they're not necessarily likely to survive. And of course, they have to live through the last battle. Congratulations, you got yourself the full character conclusions, and depending on your opinion of which ones are the focus of those it might not even be worth loosing your sanity over it. So much for games after FE 6 not having insane requirements lol
"Detroit:: Become Human". Intentionally letting everyone die, letting them fail in their purposes and going out of your way to make the worst decisions possible results in a horribly unsatisfying ending. Go figure! I love that the game doesn't have a singular canon right/wrong ending. Having to bust your ass to get a "true ending" that isn't worth the effort always pissed me off.
Only game here I've actually played through is Binding Blade. Love that game. I'd argue the true ending wasn't technically worth it... but it also put a big dumb smile on my face.
VocalCalibration I’d say it’s worth it just to give Idunn a happy ending...but at the same time, the final map is super easy and very underwhelming, so it doesn’t exactly end the game on a high note.
@@amirgarcia547 Yeah I like the saving Idunn aspect of it, and in terms of lore Idunn going down as fast as she does to the Binding Blade makes some sense, but it makes for a very anti-climactic final battle, not to mention the map before it basically just being one long exposition dum, but with dragons doesn't help.
Dishonorable Mention: Super Mario Odyssey's Ending Sure it is pretty funny to see Peach finally stand up to herself by rejecting both Mario & Bowser's purposal, but at the same, the ending itself just felt pretty anti-climactic to me. Mario just went on this huge, grand, globe-trotting adventure, & to see the game end like that, just felt like nothing happened. Honestly I find Cappy's speech at the end of the Darker Side level to be a much better ending to the game than the actual game's ending, mainly due to how touching Cappy's speech was, with him reflecting back on the grand adventure he just went through with Mario & honestly made me love Cappy as an actual character because of it. To me that's how Odyssey should've ended its main story.
I see your point, but I feel Odyssey is one of those games in which the journey is the true highlight and not the ending/destination. And what a journey it was...
The ONLY saving grace of FF X-2’s stupid ending structure is that you can repeat with all your existing levels and dresspheres, so you can go through it again a lot easier. But I remember very distinctly writing a letter to Brady Games because I followed a strategy guide in order to get the true ending, and some of their information was wrong, and this was during the days of dial-up internet; all we HAD were the strategy guides. I was SO MAD.
This reminds me about ProJared's video on SNES nightmarish game Krazy Kid Klown. A game that requires you to play perfectly *and* collect everything, and the true ending is *still* hidden behind a 50% chance game of choosing the right key out of 6...
“So how did you get all the endings?” Really simple! I just had to click on some real obscure stuff and click on keypads in order to unlock some mini games to then break those mini games to unlock more mini games to get the good ending!” “...what’s the good ending do?” “It’s the same deal, it just has the text turn from ‘bad end’ to ‘the end’”
I wish I didn’t have to agree with Fire Emblem: Binding Blade being high on this list, but it’s true. Not the worst Fire Emblem I’ve ever played, but very painful.
Final Fantasy X-2 is particularly infuriating because one of those missable bits is VERY early in the game and hidden behind a crate off a side path if I remember right. 40 hours in and you realize that's what you missed? Well restart the game if you want 100%! So stupid.
I think for me the worst offender for this is an edutainment computer game I played as a kid. I don't remember the name but the premise was that some evil wizard crated a weather machine that made it permanently winter on this mountain what the hero lived on so you would climb the mountain using math and when you got to the top the wizard just threw you out of the castle window and you had to climb it again. But not just one more time, like 6 times or something, I don't actually know how many times because I never finished it. I remember just getting board with the same thing happening each time and just kind of stopped halfway though the third climb up.
Maybe loz botw could work as well? You have to find all of the picture locations, and it only adds some flowers to the cutscene. I found locating the pictures enjoyable, but I'm sure some people were annoyed by it.
When I saw this video, Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade instantly popped into my head. But I absolutely didn't expect it to be in the list based on it not being the most popular game. I was so annoyed when I played through it, I didn't even bother playing it again for the real ending. Such a stupid game.
Zero Escape games have a similar branching structure as Shadow the Hedgehog. The first game does have you basically going through the whole game again, but the Second and Third game let's you skip to any point in the timelines. This would have helped Shadow a lot, besides the fact it has lacked luster level design and slippery controls.
You should look at Hyperdimension Neptunia MK2's endings. Not only are there *four* of them that are never mentioned in any way, but one of them involves MURDERING YOUR ENTIRE PARTY. AFTER FIGHTING THEM. *HALF OF WHICH YOU SPENT MOST OF THE GAME TRYING TO RESCUE.* and the best part? TWO OF THEM ARE LITERAL CHILDREN. YOU *HAVE* TO KILL CHILDREN IF YOU WANT TO 100% THIS GAME. *THIS RELEASED IN 2012. BEFORE UNDERTALE. AND EVEN *THEN* YOU DON'T KILL MONSTER KID.
Indivisible is the only game I know with a perfect ending where the tasks to do so could have all been missed but then gone back and done right before the final boss fight and by that point arnt really that big a chore to do and actually be amusing and have the added benefit of doing them significantly boosting character powers.
I’ll admit, I can’t tell what’s worse with the only two games I’ve played on this list: Having to play the same levels multiple times and get a bunch of different endings that are all invalidated by the true ending, OR having basically no direction to get the true ending without a guide and getting badass weapons that you can’t even use until the end of the game due to requiring them for said ending.
shout-out to Undertale, where you have to level-grind in each part of the game (which is one of the few times i'm not grateful for its already low encounter rate) to get the Bad Ending. honestly, if it didn't have that iconic and epic final boss fight, nobody would even acknowledge it in the first place.
1. The Final Fantasy ending is a fond memory of mine. My sister really wanted to see it, and did all the running around steps, but made me fight the bosses. 2. Chrono Cross had so many random endings, mainly centered around when and how you beat the final boss, that I have vivid memories of endings I can't find online. Like... the one where the girl cosplays as Kid and its just a weird grainy footage(might have been in sepia) of her wandering around the streets(of I assumed Japan) in real life as the credits scroll.
after seeing this I'd love to see a countdown on the craziest unlockablr true endings. Like the ones that are so out there and specific, its impossible to achieve by chance
How about top 5 lines (as in sentences) that completely change the tide of the story. Or as TV Tropes calls it, "Wham Lines." It's always interesting for me how a story can change the viewer's perception of events by uttering just one sentence that hits right where it needs to. Alternatively you could call it "one-line plot twist."
So glad that in the remaster of X-2, the true ending no longer requires you to go through all that nonsense just to get 100%, you just have to complete the game
The true ending to the Mary Skelter franchise is also worth a mention. You can get a "true ending" in the first game by flushing out the traitor yes, but if you bought the game as a bundle with Mary Skelter 2, then you have to complete that and get the "true ending" for the sequel as well by uncovering the mysterious nightmare's true identity, watch all your characters die off in tragic ways, and then back-pedal to the first game's post-game content in the Underground Cavern in order to get the REAL true ending that ties everything together and gives everyone a happy ending. It's all worth it in the end in my opinion, but for other players this must feel like and extra 50 hour chore.
You make it sound Like Three Houses only have 1 ending. Yes the split happens fairly early as opposed to having to having to do specific things throughout the entire game, but you make it sound like each route is the exact same plotline just from different perspectives. There are major plot differences in the ending stretch of the game that makes them more than just different perspectives though. Fire Emblem Awakening also has two endings, it's completely dependent on your final choice though.
Y'know what the best reward for 100 percent completion would be? A giant boss that absolutely requires every resource you've gained from being overpowered that gives you inconsequential yet entertaining lore, or cool ass items you can use on the next playthrough, when defeated.
Hey Rabbid, your thumbnails are all starting to look the same my dude. I skipped by this video several times before realizing it was your new video. I like your content, I don't wanna miss new videos lol.
"I'm sure there's someone out there who enjoys this..." Rabbidluigi talking about Shadow the Hedgehog. ...Me. I'm that guy. I'm that guy who is task-oriented, enjoys what-if scenarios, and has no issues with monotony while also enjoying Shadow as a character (at least the Shadow from 06 prior. Not as sure about later since his behaviours have been rather skewed. The Twitter Question answering Shadow is great though). I loved playing Shadow the Hedgehog on the PS2 and not only did I get the true ending, I got all the A Ranks and completed the stage rush you unlock for doing so. And if they ever decide to port it to another console in the future, I'd be happy to do it again. Totally understand that I'm not the majority on it and I definitely know that the game has plenty of flaws, but I enjoyed my time with it. Glad that it's not forgotten, even if it's not for the best reasons.
I think people constantly blow "You have to play the game ten times!" way out of proportion. It's only six levels apiece. No big deal. It's better than Sonic Heroes making you play the exact same set of fourteen stages and seven boss battles in the same order. The level set is constantly gonna be different when you play Shadow the Hedgehog. People give it way more flack than it deserves.
would give a props to malady from divinity original sin 2 for that. she's ominous, powerful, wears a sketchy mask, knows more than you think she should, and *is named malady.* but she's just a total bro, helps you throughout the whole game. she's fantastic
I forgot this was going to be a "why would I work for this ending if it's worse than the default ending" anyway I vaguely remember hearing about a secret bad ending in fire emblem 7 where if you connect it to a binding blade cartridge with a complete save you unlock a secret bad ending where the game ends early. I don't know how true it is though, I do own both games and a link cable but effort and time.
There's a total of 137% you are supposed to play the game twice to get the true ending. Now if only it didnt have stupid requirements like those dumb cutscenes in ch4
I once had a game that you outright couldn't finish unless you had another player with the same game and traded characters with them. It was on the Game Boy Color too, so you needed to physically have them with you, plus you needed a link cable. Think Pokemon, but you're not allowed to enter the Pokemon League unless your Pokedex is complete.
Combining Shadow and X-2, the Original Sonic Adventure on the Dreamcast; you get 100% on Sonic's story only to have it be knocked back to ~50% gave you a handful of other stories to 100% so you could finish Sonic's story to 100% to unlock all thr bonus content for the others.... It felt worth it, especially in the hindsight that it was the last playable 3D sonic game...
The secret ending in Binding Blade is such a bad move. One wrong move locks you out of it, and the extra chapters aren’t even that good. It ends with a boss fight that Roy can beat in two hits regardless of what level he is, and it’s hard to hurt it with almost any other unit. Wack.
That and the final map is super underwhelming tbh. You fight two Manaketes and Idunn and...that’s it. I know this game was delayed, hence why Roy was added in Smash as his debut, but it really feels like they ran out of time or something.
It's worth noting that FFX-2's True Ending is slightly more worth it in the PS2 International because it unlocks a playable Final Dungeon as an epilogue. I specify PS2 version because every NA localized version of FFX-2 International has it unlocked at the start. But oh well, at least they give you a Gold Trophy now for doing it! ....wait what do you mean "What about the Switch port?"?
Oscar McCormack The ending itself isn’t bad, but it’s a bit ridiculous that you need to 100% the game just to get an open-ended cliffhanger for an ending.
Shadow the Hedgehog is a guilty pleasure for me, and I have unlocked the final level to get the true ending. Except I died like three times in the first room and gave up, lol. Could give it another go at some point but naaaaaah. That game could also be a candidate for a possible "poorly thought out multiplayer/co-op" countdown, and not just for the actual multiplayer mode, but for the "co-op" in the main game. Oh yes, you can have a second player control the tag along (sans Doom's Eye and Eggman's droid thingy) in the levels and it is hilarious. Even Maria. The camera doesn't account for the other player moving around so the control is even worse, but they can never really die and don't lose rings when hit, so you can have 'em just run around killing things for you at no risk to yourself.
I'm probably wrong on this, but I think that's the reason the DLC even exists: because the game didn't sell nearly enough to justify a sequel. I think they wanted to do more with Chakravartin (at least judging by what I saw in the artbook with him fighting the Seven Deity Army), but had to resort to this so the story isn't forever left on a cliffhanger. Personally, I felt it was at least a much, MUCH better ending compared to Dead Space 3's DLC which not only screwed over the original ending, but also left the series on an eternal cliffhanger.
Let's not forget that for X-2, you probably already missed out on the true ending within 15 minutes of playing, because of a certain character dressed as a moogle that is mandatory for that extra tiny chunk of percentage.
Didn't mention this the first time I watched it years ago, butl... I have to admit, I actually loved most of Shadow the Hedgehog. Only one or two levels actually bothered me enough to never want to have to beat again, and the jank in the story made me laugh more than groan. Sure, it's bad. I would never say it wasn't. But did I enjoy myself? Yeah, I did.
tbf with Binding Blade, the requirements aren't that bad. Turn counts for Gaidens are really lenient and I feel that most players would be cautious with legendary weapons as to not break them (and you probably won't even come close if you're not spamming them where they're not needed, even lategame when they show their use you still have a lot by then). Only thing that is truly bad about them is keeping characters alive, but again I feel like most players do that anyway, aside from maybe Douglas. Though yeah the True Ending isn't all that much cause Binding Blade's characters in story are really barebones, but at least the scene with Fa and Idunn is cute
You know I wish we could get something official about the Asura's Wrath True Ending DLC being made because of a canceled sequel. It's often brought up as the reason but I've never been able to figure out where the rumor comes from. The DLC content is amazing and worth the price, but this one subject always hangs over it as an understood negative if it really was a case of Capcom intentionally holding story content back to sell as DLC.

I loved X-2 but the worst was getting all those minimal 0.2% points by watching tons scenes all over Spira via spheres.
My brother and I have gone mad in quarantine and are 6/10 endings through shadow the hedgehog to get the true ending.
To reach 100% in X-2 one can't press X during cutscenes or when talking with the scholar. However that's just half of the problem.
I remember being nine years old and my brother, my mom, and me trying for ages to get through Ghosts and Goblins and finally getting the last boss, just to see the villain snatch away the princess and start things all over. It was really satisfying when I got the real ending. I didn't even notice the spelling.
@Zachary Erickson Yep. She was cool. One day she came to school and got my brother and I out of class for a "family emergency". Once we got in the car she told us she had just gotten into Death Mountain in the original Legend of Zelda and wanted us to see it.

Erm...Awakening has two endings, Fates has three and Three Houses has four, so idk what FE games you’re playing. Granted, they don’t require anywhere near as much BS to reach as Binding Blade’s ending, but still.

Awakening hardly counts, as you don't really see anything different, and its done via a dialogue choice at the end of the game, essentially rendering it as flavor, and Fates is more 3/4ths of the game being different rather than alternate endings
Hey, rabbidluigi! I am a huge fan! (Ever since the Scariest Zelda Moments 2-part list back on Halloween 2012)
I didn't know there was a true ending to binding blade and I've played that game about 11 times
I'll be honest, when you started talking about Fire Emblem, I thought you were going to go with Fates and the Revelations side, seeing as how that could be considered the true ending, except it's basically DLC, kinda like Asura's Wrath.
I think he already talked about that in his Top Ten Worst RPGs.
@@smashster1787 You saying he couldn't double up?
@@fictionfan0 Talking about the same game in multiple lists would be crossing "The Line"
@@mattgreen7692 Okay, okay, cut the sarcasm.
Here's a unique idea I feel everyone seems to overlook: Top 5 most tragic supplementary materials to a video game.
Explanation: You finish a game, research it on its corresponding WIki for a video/playthrough, and bam! You discover a supplementary material meant to either continue the story after the beautiful end of the game-in-question that ends up breaking up a couple that you invested 160 hours into (Final Fantasy X-Will), a prelude setting up and expanding on the Hero's and villain's antagonism towards each other in-game because of a loved one's death (Tokyopop's Castlevania: Curse of Darkness manga), or a story featuring a cut cutscene from a popular rpg that helps clarify how a certain character endures after certain events (Xenoblade: The Secret File - Monado Archives). There's also some of Overwatch's Character story trailers, Darksiders: The Abomination Vault which greatly expands on Death and his deadly actions, etc.
@Sir Galahad That's fair enough. Thanks for pointing that out.
You think getting the true ending in Shadow the Hedgehog is bad, try going for 100% completion like I did.
It’s an experience

I've been waiting for a top 5 list like this for some time now
This is a really specific thing to be waiting for
@@hannesaxel3016 yes it may be very specific but I've been waiting for it none the less
When I got to No.1 and you started speaking about 100% completion, one game came to mind. Only for you to confirm my PTSD was not unjustified.
I did that once and there is no amount of HD collections that will force me to go through that amount of bullshit again.
I’m currently playing through Fire Emblem The Binding Blade and yeah, the requirements for the true ending could have been better. Unlocking the first few Gaiden chapters wasn’t too bad, but there are some that are ridiculously hard to get. One involves keeping a certain enemy unit alive, but the problem is whenever he attacked one of my units, they’d counter and any critical hit would annihilate him. And then another one requires you to keep units that very well could have died at that point in the game. (I lost Sue before the Gaiden chapter she was required for and it took place over 10 chapters after you recruited her.)
The case with Asura's Wrath was exactly what happened with the Prince of Persia reboot released around the same time: they wanted to make more games, but the sales weren't great and the handheld sequel/spin-off was underwhelming, so they made a true ending DLC too
I personally would've put Bravely Default's true ending on here. Absolutely not worth it.
I guessed someone might comment about this, but I respectfully disagree. It seemed like a pain in the ass while I was going through it, but with hindsight I genuinely think it was worth it - part of the issue is you have no idea what you're actually working towards until it happens. It does get a little repetitive, but being able to shortcut half the quests because you already know how they end (especially the Ninja one) takes most of that away.

“Did you do it?”
“Yes”
“What did it cost you?”
“Circulation to my thumbs.”
The first game that comes to mind is Rayman 1. In order to get the ending you need to find all hidden cages, in a game where simply getting through a stage is already hard. This feels like something that might work as a 100% completion bonus task, but not a necessary mission to reach the ending.
when it comes to 100% Endings, I feel it depends on *how* difficult it is to 100% or not. Like, Kirby 64's a good example where it isn't necessarily a bad thing, as getting all the crystal shards isn't that much of a pain
I'm not going to repeat the whole "why Three Houses footage tho" because it's been here a lot already, with good rights. Yeah, the endings are easy to get but it also doesn't make sense showing 3H when talking about future FE having more straightforward conclusions. Also, it's not even completely true if you count specific character interactions/endings to a "complete" ending, because in this case, let me tell you about one thing in terms of cryptic things you need to do to unlock the "best" ending: Radiant Dawn.
Requirements: a memory card with a completed Path of Radiance savefile (so if you're playing on WiiU or a newer Wii model, you're instantly locked out) where specific characters have specific supports (Ike and Soren come to mind), playing on NG+ and keeping characters alive that die story deaths on a first playthrough, let characters have conversations on the battlefield that are incredibly dangerous to get because they often involve getting your fragile units deep into enemy lines (not to mention that you don't even know you need them, or that the characters can even talk to each other), bringing certain characters to the endgame, locking up precious space for your elite fighters and having them have conversations with bosses whose attacks they're not necessarily likely to survive. And of course, they have to live through the last battle. Congratulations, you got yourself the full character conclusions, and depending on your opinion of which ones are the focus of those it might not even be worth loosing your sanity over it.
So much for games after FE 6 not having insane requirements lol
"Detroit:: Become Human". Intentionally letting everyone die, letting them fail in their purposes and going out of your way to make the worst decisions possible results in a horribly unsatisfying ending. Go figure! I love that the game doesn't have a singular canon right/wrong ending. Having to bust your ass to get a "true ending" that isn't worth the effort always pissed me off.
Only game here I've actually played through is Binding Blade. Love that game. I'd argue the true ending wasn't technically worth it... but it also put a big dumb smile on my face.
VocalCalibration I’d say it’s worth it just to give Idunn a happy ending...but at the same time, the final map is super easy and very underwhelming, so it doesn’t exactly end the game on a high note.
@@amirgarcia547 Yeah I like the saving Idunn aspect of it, and in terms of lore Idunn going down as fast as she does to the Binding Blade makes some sense, but it makes for a very anti-climactic final battle, not to mention the map before it basically just being one long exposition dum, but with dragons doesn't help.

Dishonorable Mention: Super Mario Odyssey's Ending
Sure it is pretty funny to see Peach finally stand up to herself by rejecting both Mario & Bowser's purposal, but at the same, the ending itself just felt pretty anti-climactic to me. Mario just went on this huge, grand, globe-trotting adventure, & to see the game end like that, just felt like nothing happened.
Honestly I find Cappy's speech at the end of the Darker Side level to be a much better ending to the game than the actual game's ending, mainly due to how touching Cappy's speech was, with him reflecting back on the grand adventure he just went through with Mario & honestly made me love Cappy as an actual character because of it. To me that's how Odyssey should've ended its main story.
The true ending is cappys speech, therefore its a good true ending. If this was crappy normal endings then yea maybe odyssey
To be fair though, this video's mainly talking about endings that put you through a bunch of bullshit just to get them, not so much the ending itself.
I see your point, but I feel Odyssey is one of those games in which the journey is the true highlight and not the ending/destination. And what a journey it was...
I don't like it when games require a guide to get 100%, even if there isn't an extra ending behind it. I'm looking at you, Persona 3.
The ONLY saving grace of FF X-2’s stupid ending structure is that you can repeat with all your existing levels and dresspheres, so you can go through it again a lot easier. But I remember very distinctly writing a letter to Brady Games because I followed a strategy guide in order to get the true ending, and some of their information was wrong, and this was during the days of dial-up internet; all we HAD were the strategy guides. I was SO MAD.
This reminds me about ProJared's video on SNES nightmarish game Krazy Kid Klown. A game that requires you to play perfectly *and* collect everything, and the true ending is *still* hidden behind a 50% chance game of choosing the right key out of 6...
10:46 bwahahaha these never get old, keep the creativity coming
“So how did you get all the endings?”
Really simple! I just had to click on some real obscure stuff and click on keypads in order to unlock some mini games to then break those mini games to unlock more mini games to get the good ending!”
“...what’s the good ending do?”
“It’s the same deal, it just has the text turn from ‘bad end’ to ‘the end’”
Rest in peace Best Wii U Exclusives. I guess you'll have to wait another day 😔
I wish I didn’t have to agree with Fire Emblem: Binding Blade being high on this list, but it’s true. Not the worst Fire Emblem I’ve ever played, but very painful.
Final Fantasy X-2 is particularly infuriating because one of those missable bits is VERY early in the game and hidden behind a crate off a side path if I remember right. 40 hours in and you realize that's what you missed? Well restart the game if you want 100%! So stupid.
I think for me the worst offender for this is an edutainment computer game I played as a kid. I don't remember the name but the premise was that some evil wizard crated a weather machine that made it permanently winter on this mountain what the hero lived on so you would climb the mountain using math and when you got to the top the wizard just threw you out of the castle window and you had to climb it again. But not just one more time, like 6 times or something, I don't actually know how many times because I never finished it. I remember just getting board with the same thing happening each time and just kind of stopped halfway though the third climb up.
Imagine if GTA hid its true ending behind the stunt jumps
Maybe loz botw could work as well? You have to find all of the picture locations, and it only adds some flowers to the cutscene. I found locating the pictures enjoyable, but I'm sure some people were annoyed by it.
When I saw this video, Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade instantly popped into my head. But I absolutely didn't expect it to be in the list based on it not being the most popular game. I was so annoyed when I played through it, I didn't even bother playing it again for the real ending. Such a stupid game.
Zero Escape games have a similar branching structure as Shadow the Hedgehog. The first game does have you basically going through the whole game again, but the Second and Third game let's you skip to any point in the timelines. This would have helped Shadow a lot, besides the fact it has lacked luster level design and slippery controls.
The nonary games rerelease, of 999 and vlr let's you skip puzzle rooms you've already done on repeat playthroughs, in both games at least
You should look at Hyperdimension Neptunia MK2's endings. Not only are there *four* of them that are never mentioned in any way, but one of them involves MURDERING YOUR ENTIRE PARTY. AFTER FIGHTING THEM. *HALF OF WHICH YOU SPENT MOST OF THE GAME TRYING TO RESCUE.* and the best part?
TWO OF THEM ARE LITERAL CHILDREN. YOU *HAVE* TO KILL CHILDREN IF YOU WANT TO 100% THIS GAME.
*THIS RELEASED IN 2012. BEFORE UNDERTALE. AND EVEN *THEN* YOU DON'T KILL MONSTER KID.
Indivisible is the only game I know with a perfect ending where the tasks to do so could have all been missed but then gone back and done right before the final boss fight and by that point arnt really that big a chore to do and actually be amusing and have the added benefit of doing them significantly boosting character powers.
I’ll admit, I can’t tell what’s worse with the only two games I’ve played on this list:
Having to play the same levels multiple times and get a bunch of different endings that are all invalidated by the true ending, OR having basically no direction to get the true ending without a guide and getting badass weapons that you can’t even use until the end of the game due to requiring them for said ending.
It’s not the worst but one of the hardest endings to get is one of the hollow knight god master endings
shout-out to Undertale, where you have to level-grind in each part of the game (which is one of the few times i'm not grateful for its already low encounter rate) to get the Bad Ending. honestly, if it didn't have that iconic and epic final boss fight, nobody would even acknowledge it in the first place.
Zennec Fox It does also have a pretty badass fight against Undyne as well with one of the best tracks in the game.

1. The Final Fantasy ending is a fond memory of mine. My sister really wanted to see it, and did all the running around steps, but made me fight the bosses.
2. Chrono Cross had so many random endings, mainly centered around when and how you beat the final boss, that I have vivid memories of endings I can't find online. Like... the one where the girl cosplays as Kid and its just a weird grainy footage(might have been in sepia) of her wandering around the streets(of I assumed Japan) in real life as the credits scroll.
after seeing this I'd love to see a countdown on the craziest unlockablr true endings. Like the ones that are so out there and specific, its impossible to achieve by chance
How about "Best Dragon Buddies" for a countdown?
How about top 5 lines (as in sentences) that completely change the tide of the story. Or as TV Tropes calls it, "Wham Lines."
It's always interesting for me how a story can change the viewer's perception of events by uttering just one sentence that hits right where it needs to.
Alternatively you could call it "one-line plot twist."
So glad that in the remaster of X-2, the true ending no longer requires you to go through all that nonsense just to get 100%, you just have to complete the game
Top Five Best Character Redesigns in Video Games
The true ending to the Mary Skelter franchise is also worth a mention. You can get a "true ending" in the first game by flushing out the traitor yes, but if you bought the game as a bundle with Mary Skelter 2, then you have to complete that and get the "true ending" for the sequel as well by uncovering the mysterious nightmare's true identity, watch all your characters die off in tragic ways, and then back-pedal to the first game's post-game content in the Underground Cavern in order to get the REAL true ending that ties everything together and gives everyone a happy ending. It's all worth it in the end in my opinion, but for other players this must feel like and extra 50 hour chore.
You make it sound Like Three Houses only have 1 ending. Yes the split happens fairly early as opposed to having to having to do specific things throughout the entire game, but you make it sound like each route is the exact same plotline just from different perspectives. There are major plot differences in the ending stretch of the game that makes them more than just different perspectives though. Fire Emblem Awakening also has two endings, it's completely dependent on your final choice though.

...Me. I'm that guy. I'm that guy who is task-oriented, enjoys what-if scenarios, and has no issues with monotony while also enjoying Shadow as a character (at least the Shadow from 06 prior. Not as sure about later since his behaviours have been rather skewed. The Twitter Question answering Shadow is great though). I loved playing Shadow the Hedgehog on the PS2 and not only did I get the true ending, I got all the A Ranks and completed the stage rush you unlock for doing so. And if they ever decide to port it to another console in the future, I'd be happy to do it again. Totally understand that I'm not the majority on it and I definitely know that the game has plenty of flaws, but I enjoyed my time with it. Glad that it's not forgotten, even if it's not for the best reasons.
I think people constantly blow "You have to play the game ten times!" way out of proportion. It's only six levels apiece. No big deal. It's better than Sonic Heroes making you play the exact same set of fourteen stages and seven boss battles in the same order. The level set is constantly gonna be different when you play Shadow the Hedgehog. People give it way more flack than it deserves.

Combining Shadow and X-2, the Original Sonic Adventure on the Dreamcast; you get 100% on Sonic's story only to have it be knocked back to ~50% gave you a handful of other stories to 100% so you could finish Sonic's story to 100% to unlock all thr bonus content for the others.... It felt worth it, especially in the hindsight that it was the last playable 3D sonic game...
The secret ending in Binding Blade is such a bad move. One wrong move locks you out of it, and the extra chapters aren’t even that good. It ends with a boss fight that Roy can beat in two hits regardless of what level he is, and it’s hard to hurt it with almost any other unit. Wack.
That and the final map is super underwhelming tbh. You fight two Manaketes and Idunn and...that’s it. I know this game was delayed, hence why Roy was added in Smash as his debut, but it really feels like they ran out of time or something.

I unironically enjoyed Shadow the Hedgehog. Even the multiple playthroughs required to get the good ending. It became almost meditative after awhile.
Shadow the Hedgehog is a guilty pleasure for me, and I have unlocked the final level to get the true ending. Except I died like three times in the first room and gave up, lol. Could give it another go at some point but naaaaaah.
That game could also be a candidate for a possible "poorly thought out multiplayer/co-op" countdown, and not just for the actual multiplayer mode, but for the "co-op" in the main game. Oh yes, you can have a second player control the tag along (sans Doom's Eye and Eggman's droid thingy) in the levels and it is hilarious. Even Maria. The camera doesn't account for the other player moving around so the control is even worse, but they can never really die and don't lose rings when hit, so you can have 'em just run around killing things for you at no risk to yourself.

I'm probably wrong on this, but I think that's the reason the DLC even exists: because the game didn't sell nearly enough to justify a sequel.
I think they wanted to do more with Chakravartin (at least judging by what I saw in the artbook with him fighting the Seven Deity Army), but had to resort to this so the story isn't forever left on a cliffhanger.
Personally, I felt it was at least a much, MUCH better ending compared to Dead Space 3's DLC which not only screwed over the original ending, but also left the series on an eternal cliffhanger.

Didn't mention this the first time I watched it years ago, butl... I have to admit, I actually loved most of Shadow the Hedgehog. Only one or two levels actually bothered me enough to never want to have to beat again, and the jank in the story made me laugh more than groan. Sure, it's bad. I would never say it wasn't. But did I enjoy myself? Yeah, I did.
tbf with Binding Blade, the requirements aren't that bad. Turn counts for Gaidens are really lenient and I feel that most players would be cautious with legendary weapons as to not break them (and you probably won't even come close if you're not spamming them where they're not needed, even lategame when they show their use you still have a lot by then). Only thing that is truly bad about them is keeping characters alive, but again I feel like most players do that anyway, aside from maybe Douglas.
Though yeah the True Ending isn't all that much cause Binding Blade's characters in story are really barebones, but at least the scene with Fa and Idunn is cute
