Do you watch the end credits when you beat a video game?
If the music is good, yes :)
Dragon kick your ass into the Milky Way!
Some games yea. Especially if it was an emotional experience. That’s my reflection time.
This was a triumph
Depends on the game. If it’s a game I love a lot, then I’m interested in knowing the names of the people who gave me a great experience
I find that I only finish games I love
I always find I wholesome when they list all the people that became parents during time of development. Horizon Zero Dawn is amongst the games that does this.
Horizon Zero Dawn delivering on so many fronts. Love that game. 100%'ed it, and the expansion.
I can’t wait to start my Forbidden West adventure.
Final Fantasy VI has almost 30 minutes of credits. Well worth it for the 50+ hours you can put into it. And the music is so worth it (it’s an epilogue more than just scrolling text)
Usually only the first time. Subsequent playthroughs no.
I do it for a lot of different reasons (example in parents):
- Game was good (Obra Dinn): To show appreciation
- Emotional or great story (Witcher 3): To digest
- Very hard game (Celeste): Bask is the victory
- Grindy game: Finally done so I can relax
I have the end credits of both Portal games in my playlist. I think we can agree those are some of the best credits in gaming history.
*sigh* Speaking of which, that reminds me of when I finally played Portal for the first time. Everybody was talking about how hilarious and amazing the end credits were…
Imagine my disappointment when finally beat the game, only to find out they the “hilarious song” was just Still Alive, a tune I had already heard thousands of times before, thanks to all the memes.
Being young sucks.
Being old is not so great, either.
Being dead sucks more, so… yeah.
Sometimes. Depends on the game.
Usually only if there’s something good as part of the credits (eg. Portal 1 & 2)
If the game has been very meaningful to me, yes.
Only time I’ve bothered is portal. If you’re just going to show me the names of people who made the game I’ve got better things to do.
Watched the shit out of the credits when I finished outer wilds.
PS: Would like to forget about it all and do it again.
Metroid games, yes
