Make you a kleptomaniac? I swear it did to me, and now, whenever I get a new game, I have the urge to get 100% and then a (usually) 120%.

All cause I am now a kleptomaniac. Damn gems and dragon eggs.

SO MUCH STUFF TO COLLECT.

No, not really. I just really like to make sure I've beaten everything in the game so I won't miss anything.

Not really.

I like to collect everything in a Spyro game, not even a Spyro game really, any game, otherwise it bugs me that it is still there and I haven't got it.

Not a kleptomaniac, a completionist.

Sorta the same, I guess.

But I think I am a kleptomaniac personally.

Whenever I see items in lbp2 I like and its a 2x game, I just try to find a way to break (not literally) the game and get the prize bubbles without needing a extra player to help me.

Isn't kleptomania an obsession of stealing things?

Actually its the sometimes called a disorder where people have the irrisistable urge to collect or hoard things.

And I don't mean this in real life people, I mean in videogames where you have to collect stuff.

Just to make it clear.

I've never heard of that word before.

I've always wanted to get 100% an any game I play like Mario and the other Spyro games

Getting 100% on Final Fantasy games are as hard as ****.

Kleptomania, as far as I know, only has to do with theft. You seem to be thinking of completionism or compulsive hoarding.

Oh, god. I laughed so hard.
You know, like how most people are saying, the definition to that word is "steal".

And each time I play this game; I always try to get it to 120%. :U

What can any one say, 120% is a lot better than just !00%(oops, I used an exclomationmark insted(oh well(too lazy))its a lazy day, I'll just leave it)

I, too, get this incredible craving of collecting EVERYTHING!

Nah, I had an insatiable urge to collect and explore everything before Spyro 2.

And of course, before I got Spyro 1 in 2007/8

Wow yo got Spyro 1 pretty late, about 10 years.

No. Not at all.

I was born a completionist
It really bugs me when games (collect-a-thons in particular) make you revisit worlds.

That f'ing Treasure Hunter trophy in FFXIII...the only thing I didn't do... @_@

I just cannot let a game NOT be 100% completed and done in every way. No, just no.

LOL! I'm sorry but that makes me laugh, I think the exact same way. It's like something brainwashes me into completing EVERYTHING!

Nope.


Rareware games made me a completionist, and I don't even aim for 100% when playing RPGs.

Yeah, TT and HT are the sole reason it took five years to complete for me.

I've always been a kleptomaniac... Spyro did nothing to change that.

Lol to that...

whats kelptomaniac

heaven yes!!!!!!!!
i am so up tight about everything now!!! not just that but i look in all the corners and sneaky hiding places even though theres bound to be nothing there!!! its so annoying!!!
epecially with games that dont give you anything to collect......

I got up to the Beast Makers world then after a good while when I got back to play the again, I completed the whole game. It could probably be completed in one day.

Nope.

The first time, yeah... but that's only so I can say I've finished it.

Then the rest of the time I play it for the story line and nostalgia.

no I only try to get 100% if it is a really really good game and im bored
and no I didnt try to get 100% on this game. I did try to in year of the dragon (but i failed)

Whenever I got new game I have two targets:
1. Finish game - I'm playing it almost every time I can, 'til I finish it for at least 1 time.
2. Complete for 100% - I continue to play this game and I'm getting everything I can. Sometimes I get bored and after several months I play this game again Surprisingly, it really works! Today I finished Ratchet: Gladiator for 100% after 3 years!

Yes... and ever since then I got all the collectibles on all the games I had since then...

Yesssssss!

I play for 100% (or 120%, as it were) every time I play this game, along with Spyro 2 and 3. Not so much other games because they tend to be rather unfair.

It's honestly agonizing though, because I can't enjoy the game like a normal person anymore now that I know where everything is! I've been thinking of doing a minimalist run, just to show myself that it is perfectly OK to play the game without getting mad at Tree Tops and Haunted Towers.

^I stopped playing RR because I knew where everything was, and it was plain boring. I'll probably fish it out in a few years when I've forgotten everything

Not necessarily. If I want to complete a game 100% / 120%, it usually it depends on the game itself, and whether I feel the need to complete it. But Games like the first three Spyro and Crash games were the ones I wanted to complete.

It made me OCD. Now i need to find and get everything in real life too.
