Okay, so I have recently been very active in the backloggery. It's a fun thing, keeping track of my games and having different themes for my currently favorite games at the time.However, there is a question that has arisen... How do you know when you've "beaten" a fighting game? Is it just when you see the credits like with every other game? But technically that would just mean beating Arcade or Story Mode with just one character, then voila! You have beaten the game. Is it really that simple? Either that... Or is beating the game a lot more difficult and requires beating the game with every character? But doesn't that count towards 100% Completion? In Smash Bros. I could have considered myself beating the game after I've unlocked all the characters and stages. But what if the fighting game doesn't have unlockable characters or stages? It's a mystery... If you guys who still actually visit my blog read this post. Please give me your opinion of when we technically have beaten a fighting game. You can use examples from past experience if you want!
Such is my predicament. With Battle Fantasia and Street Fighter IV, have I already technically beaten them by beating Arcade/Story mode once and seeing the ending credits? Or... Is there something MORE I have to do? In Street Fighter IV, I suppose I could say that I haven't beaten the game yet until I've unlocked Seth, but that would be a very tedious process... The same can be said for Battle Fantasia as well, as I still have The End of Deathbringer to unlock, although he technically won't ever appear on the character select screen as you have to choose him in a certain way after meeting the requirements, which is pretty much beat Story Mode 100% with each character. Which is also a VERY long and tedious process.
Any opinions are welcome. XD
