10 Video Games You'll NEVER 100%

6. Rayman Legends

Rayman Legends is a fantastic game, with its satisfying movement mechanics and utterly gorgeous presentation putting a lot of other 2D platformers to shame.

If you want to go for 100% though, here's a quick warning: if you suck at this game, it could take you literally years to fully complete. That is not a joke.

Why You'll Never 100% It

In order to see and do everything Rayman Legends has to offer, you will have to reach the final level of Awesomeness, which requires 6,000 points in total. Most of these points will come from simply beating the game and getting all the collectibles - which is easy - but the last chunk will require you to compete in online challenges.

There are daily and weekly challenges available, and you're rewarded for your performance with a specific cup. Perform badly in a challenge? That's a Bronze Cup, worth one point. Perform exceptionally well? That's a Diamond Cup, worth 50 points.

Now, Diamond Cups require you to place in the top 1% of all players, meaning that you'll have to be a Rayman Legends god... which most of us aren't. So, realistically, the most points you can hope to earn per challenge is ten - a Gold Cup.

And this is where the timesink comes in.

Let's say you can only manage to earn ten points per day. Well, you need close to 2,000 points for the final level of Awesomeness. That's around 200 days of dedication and grinding - and again, that's if you're good enough to consistently earn Gold Cups. On some challenges, you might not be able to earn any Cups at all.

Now, let's say you can only manage to earn one point per day - a Bronze Cup. That's roughly 2,000 days of suffering. Why bother? Most people, understandably so, will give up long before that point, and in order to not go crazy, we fully recommend you do so.

In 2022, he took charge of WhoCulture and has grown it into the biggest Doctor Who channel on YouTube, and one of the biggest Doctor Who communities on the web full-stop. He has been writing and video editing since his early teens, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers, off the back of a burning obsession with the Matt Smith era of the show. Like many his age, he first got into Doctor Who with the 2005 revival, but has since gone back and fallen in love with the classic years too. If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order, or to give you a random factoid about the making of Gridlock, Danny is the person to ask!
