However, you don't actually need 100% for the 'good' ending. I'm not sure exactly how high it has to be, but the 100% ending is a VERY minor, very short bonus cutscene only. The big story things you already get just for a 'good' ending, even if it isn't a perfect 100%.
That being said, it can still be difficult to get a high % on your first playthrough. I got 90-something the first time I played it, but that involved MASSIVE amounts of "try everything and see if that does anything" throughout the game, which isn't for everyone. I'd say the average, naive player would probably get around 70ish % on their first playthrough, which I'm fairly sure is not enough for the proper 'good' ending.
However, the replay value of the game is fairly high, due to the New Game+ option. There's about 110% or so worth of percentage in the game, if you count mutually exclusive choices witnessed over multiple playthroughs. So playing through the game twice and making different choices (especially one particularly big one, no spoilers) might be an option to get a high enough percentage for the 'good' ending the second time through. This has the advantage of showing you the 'not so good' ending as well on the first playthrough, which you wouldn't otherwise get to see.
Otherwise, barring cheats and walkthroughs, being meticulous about details and exploring every little thing there is would be the only choice. Keep in mind that getting 100% in one game is quite difficult - even WITH a walkthrough. There are just so many teeny tiny details you can miss.
Thanks for the comment, I do really value it, it just feels like FF-10 is unfinished if you dont play FF 10-2, and really, I think Id be satisfied if I could simple see Yuna and Tidus at the end actually being able to be together, I hope thats not the hardest endings to get, cause thats going to be tedious.
As for Tidus and Yuna...
That is the 'good' ending. The perfect ending is not required for them to be together.
Oh! I got it in my head that I needed a 100% for that to happen, im glad I dont, makes me much more eager to play the game:)
As I said, even following walkthrough guides about 75% of people will screw up somewhere and miss the perfect score. It's REALLY annoying to do in one game.
I started the game a few hours ago and im enjoying it, abit peeved about the forced active mode, im not used to that, Ive got pretty bad eyesight and I cant follow fast scenes, thus I like taking my time, but I can bypass that by simply overleveling so I dont have to bother looking everywhere,
But even so, I am ejoying a new game, been spending alot of time digging the the deseret actually, havent even gone to besaid yet, just digging in the desert, found it fun:>
I really like the fact that you can explore for the get go, I didnt enjoy it very much in FF-X when you get the airship youre literally 1 place away from finishing the game, it made me feel like there was not point in exploring since when im done doing it, the game is over in like an hour.
So I explored, stayed cleared from the Zanarkand and Besaid, because They say "Hotspots" Im assuming that means plot progression. I went to Luca, quite fun actually having Yuna geared up as a moogle handing kids balloons, also walked all of Mi'ihen Highroad for some rewards, didnt really get much xD I have noticed that im obscenely overleveled though, im around 22 and I almost 1 shot everything.
The main complaint so far would be over sexual side of it all, I dont really mind a game have the underlyings of it, but alot of it in this game simply dosnt make any sense, like Yuna wearing a G-string, and then proceeds to wear it as revealing as possible, I mean I know Yuna! Ive played Final fantasy 10 several times, and that, right there, is not Yuna behaviour, I get the whole thing about growing as a person and I support it, but I honestly think that was going a tad to far, then again, sex sells, and sells rule the world, Ill doubt it will really bother me any, unless they happen upon some kind of Backstreets Boys guys they all take a liking too, really hope that dosnt happen.
So far im really enjoying it, well, except Paine, theres so much wrong with that Character that I dont really know where to start, the mere fact that she asks if im turned on after she kills something should really speak for itself. Granted though, Ive just started so I dont know her Character more than her immediate current behaviour.
I especially like the fact that there seems to be several ways of building a good team for combat, Im very new, and yet Assault skill from Warrior gives me really happy thoughts about a Berserk team of some kind, could be super fun if done right, if im thinking about it correctly anyway.
As for the "sexualization" thing, that's a tricky subject. It may seem like 'sex sells' to Western audiences, but the primary appeal they went for in a Japanese context is simply 'cute'. They have a bit of a different understanding of that, to be sure, and the whole J-Pop flavor does not agree with everyone (not to mention it is a touch out of date by now). No boy band, though. FF15 for that.
But youre saying this game might have the best Super Bosses in the FF universe, even if that statement was false, that is high praise, I truly wish to explore that side of the game later on:)
About the J-pop thing, I can understand it, really, it just hit be that it was very odd for a character like Yuna to be that revealing with a G-string of all things, she showed more hesitation about the moogle getup xD
I know Im just looking into things a little to harshly, but I guess its the sort of person I am, if I like a story I always try to view those characters in the way the were portrayed.
On that note however! I noticed Yuna has Tidus sword in Warrior, and has his and Jechts, I suppose, sign on her chest in Gunner, small things like that I really like.
Well I guess it was Wakkas sword... then Chappus, but really for me its Tidus Sword.
And yes, she has made it a point to copy many of Tidus' looks and even mannerisms (if you watch closely you can see her repeat several of his facial expressions). She even talks more like him, though that is hard to notice in the translation and more apparent in Japanese. Also, Yuna Warrior isn't the only costume to use old equipment - keep an eye out, and see what you can identify ;)
Its nice to have a name to the Sign though, Zanarkand Abes makes alot of sense, I just never made the connection.
I didnt even touch Creature create, thought Id save that til the replay someday, but while im on the creature point, you were right, the "story" monsters were very easy, I remember when I was doing the Episode complete for Bikanel(?) Home-ruins, and I had a very though time with Agna Miyun I think her name was, and since that was part of the Episode complete story, I thought that the finale bosses would be at least as strong as that, then, I um, got the the last encounter, and it didnt last long enough for me to even take damage. I did have to redo it though, didnt press X afterwards, yeah...
but yeah, about the 87% I really thought I was going to get at least 95%+ I was so anal the whole playthrough, when to every single place, every single chapter, viewed every single scene on the commsphere every single time, The Hot Springs alone took like an hour!
I ended up really liking this game, I didnt think I would honestly, thats why I havent played it before, the Multiple endings really scared me of, I thought the game might completely deny me a good ending after spending around 50 hours playing it (My FF plays are usually that long) Like finishing Final fantasy 9 but theres no tailed stranger at the end, that would drive me so mad.
My advice to people who are abit scared about the multiple endings out here would be to ignore all of it, you make a google search about the 4 things you have to do in order to make Him part of the ending, and then go on and continue to play at your own pace, and just keep those 4 steps in the back of your mind while playing.
Thanks for your comments, it got me to play this game, granted I had just played 10 again so I might have plucked up the courage to play it anyway, but there would have been alot of google searches and spoilers I would have read doing so.
This even game the the resolve to actually play 13-2 and 13-3 I did actually enjoy 13, and I didnt want it to be ruined by 13-2 or 13-3 so I never played them, Im going to go and play the 3 games, next time I have some time of, going back to work monday.
Thanks again, really, feels great to have a happy ending to the story of Final fantasy 10.
The Crimson Spheres are definitely a big part of Paine's story, so getting them all is a task you may want to consider. The Creature Creator, while very fun and with incredibly satisfying combat, does not contribute to completion percentage in the slightest. It does, however, offer a ton of interesting extra cutscenes for many of the Fiend Tale endings you complete, which could be something you're perhaps interested in. There's also a larger questline spanning all chapters involved with it, as well as the best item rewards in the game.
As for the rest of the missing percentages, you can make up for a good 10% or so by choosing the other path during the main quest line - in fact, one of the choices means you CANNOT get 100% in one playthrough in the first place. But since completion percentage carries over to NG+, the total amount you can get is more like 110% - in theory, you could miss quite a lot and still get the 100% ending after two playthroughs.
The details you can miss are manifold, though. Many involve actions that need to be undertaken at specific times (i.e. after doing X but before doing Y), others require you to go back to areas you thought you had completed, etc. And given the sheer size of the world and the number of options available at every step, it's virtually impossible for any one person to get 100% in one playthrough without external knowledge. I am not aware of anyone attempting or completing that feat, and it would be hard to prove anyway. Plus, Square's philosophy at the time was in favor of obscure secret content you could basically only piece together collaboratively - they took that to the extreme with the next game in the series, FFXII, which has many secrets that are quite frankly LUDICROUS to discover without a large number of players pooling data (involving things such as events triggering based on what time the internal clock showed, or the best weapon in the game not being available, pretty much ever, to people who opened certain chests throughout the game that are not marked or special in any way, the first of which you encounter ten minutes into the game).
I myself only did a guided 100% run after playing through the game 3 times on release, ending up with something just under 95%. Even now, years later, I've failed at replicating the single run 100% WITH A GUIDE several times. It's really, really annoying to do, so don't fret - enjoy the game, explore as much as you like, and if you then feel like it, do the 100% in one run with a guide just to experience it once.
