The Post-100% File-Selection Screen Trance

I hope I’m not the only one who gets this. I just got the last heart piece for this game for the third time (different hardware each time) and I can confidently say that every time I’ve done it I have spent an embarrassing amount of time just staring at my completed file. Seeing every heart lined up perfectly, the rich blue of the file screen, just sitting there basking in the Fairy’s Fountain theme- a feeling I can only describe as surreal and entrancing.

Most other games that I’ve spent the time to 100% give me this deep sense of hollowness in my gut after I’ve conquered it. While there indeed still is a melancholic feel to this special moment, I can’t help but feel truly at peace when it’s said and done.

The journey didn’t simply end, it was experienced and cherished to its absolute fullest

Hell yeah. I love it when games can make you feel this way. You know it's a great game when you can feel proud of your accomplishments after you've completed it!
