Shadow the Hedgehog. Can't believe you have to complete the story mode 10 times to get the last story.
What about the hollow knight godmaster ending
Love your channel 😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
How the hell is the comment three days old
Me it would be the original Links awakening, Final Fantasy X-2 and Kingdom Hearts triligy
Honorable mention: the Godmaster endings in Hollow Knight. Both require beating the sadistic Pantheon of Hallownest boss rush, and the second requires you to bring a Delicate Flower to the Godseeker(as if delivering it from the Grey Mourner to the Queen's Gardens wasn't already hard enough).
That’s exactly what I came down here to say.
So true, lost my sanity in that damn game. But I still love it.
really? Since I gather all the achievements from Steam i decided to get the platinum trophy. and it was a wonderful cake-walk
real shame that they don't have the speedrun trophies, which I beat this less than 5 hours >:(
And the Godmaster ending cutscenes are especially gripping, though they do both have a glaring cliffhanger when the eponymous Hollow Knight seemingly drags itself out of the Black Egg to see Hornet outside.
I was waiting for it to show up, surprised it didn’t ngl
I'd say Undertale's Genocide run is significantly harder than the Pacifist run. San's boss fight is insane
Plus the sheer amount of grinding required to even get to that point is nuts.
@@SithBunny1 Honestly, it's only a little more than 100 enemies. I wouldn't call that a lot of grinding. Most JRPGs have you grinding 50+ hours through a couple thousand enemies just to beat the game.
I couldn't even get past undyne the undying in my genocide attempt. Maybe I should do some practicing irl first.
I gave up on beating Sans. Feels impossible to do with Switch controllers
It definitely is. Everyone can do the pacifist route. Idk why they put them together.
Actually, in Sekiro, the hardest ending to obtain is Dragon's Return. I won't spoil it but it is very rewarding
I love how the butterfly effect is implemented in games like these. One decision could literally change the ending of a game, and sometimes you don’t know if you’re making the right choice or not.
Corpse Party’s Chapter 5 True Ending. It can easily go wrong right at the outset if you let Yuka get caught by Kizami. Also, finding and choosing the right items to appease Sachiko, making sure to count CORRECTLY how many times you chant, AND escaping the school before the bell tolls seven times.
One super hard ending I found really satisfying to get is the Triangle Strategy Seranoa Ending in Wolfort Castle. Obtaining this ending not only requires you to choose the correct pathway through a game that uses a conviction system to allow you access to certain maps, but it also requires you to beat certain maps without utilizing map gimmicks to make those maps more manageable. For instance, in certain maps where you have access to traps that can destroy large chunks of the enemies, you have to go out of your way not to trigger those traps. You also have to pay attention to clues you get in a very text heavy story in order to figure out the answers to a final test before you can choose into the ending maps for the most difficult route in the game. Only then, will you get a version of the ending cutscene that takes place in Seranoa's home of Wolfort Castle as opposed to the Royal Castle of Glenbrook.
Pacifist Ending for Undertale was easy for me to get as I pretty much decided not kill anyone.
Same.
Did it my first playthrough.
Quite frankly, if you can even get past Tauriel without turning the game off and hating yourself, you're a stronger man than I.
Mine too
I remember beating Mass Effect 2 and saving everyone and it was hard. Once playing multiple times, it is easy for me
Same, I did by accident though lol.
Played the trilogy all the way through for the first time a few months ago, I never would have got a decent ending without a guide
@@dragoonis88That's actually impressive.
After Reading the title I knew NieR Automata is gonna be the part of it.
Glory to the crazy endings of the game. 😊
9:46 fun fact, Letting Jacob die in vents is still considered “saving everyone”. He’s not worth saving imo
I would love to see top 20 hardest games to 100 percent
Took a lot of hours to get to the final story in shadow the hedgehog but I had a blast playing through it all
How can the Payday 2 secret ending not be on this list? The sheer lunacy that must be accomplished to unlock it makes more than worthy
True as all the stuff needed to get that ending which fills in pretty much most of the plot-holes in Payday 2's story is absurd on a major level.
But getting the true ending to Ghost and Goblins deserves to the number 1 spot as you have to beat it a 2nd time and here's the kicker just beating the game the 1st is a challenge in itself due to how difficult this Capcom classic is, but you have to go through it a 2nd time just to get the true ending to quote the AVGN concerning this requirement to get the true ending "Wait I have to go through it again, well that's just great cause now I'm DOUBLY PISSED OFF!!!!"
I hope everybody who reads this has a great day
You too
You to
same to you 😊
Hell yeah! You too, man!
You too man
Good ending in Cave Story is a pretty difficult challenge but getting this ending is worth it.
MUSIC MAN!!!!!!
Jet Force Gemini is insane. You have to search all the stages to find parts for the ship. And one of those parts can only be obtained if you save all the glass cannon tribals in every stage. (I think even Rare realized saving all the tribals was bs since the chief aplogizes in advance for putting you through this). I dont know how anyone is going to find all that shit without a strategy guide or YT playthrough. Even after that you have to go through the final stage culminating in one of the hardest final boss fights outside of the Soulsborne games. I'm pretty satisfied I did do it myself but again I could only do it because I had the strategy guide and even then I refuse to do it again.
I clicked just because i saw DJ Music Man as a thumbnail from Five Nights At Freddy's: Security Breach 🤣♥️♥️♥️🤟
Same tbh
Same
Me too lol XD
Seeing Valkyrie Profile getting a nod on this list pleases me. Getting ending A was a task that took me forever. Finding the secret boss was pure blind luck. The curse of the PS1 era that corrupted save files on your memory card also meant potentially losing your progress. 😢😢😢
Yeah also happy to see VP here, I followed a guide but it was still pretty rough, so many things to keep track of xd
One of my favourite games :)
All of that ghosts n goblins stuff was bad enough, but in my opinion, the worst part is either losing the weapon that was your bread and butter to something worse. Enemy patterns and all that were tricky too but losing the knife was heartbreaking
Crash 4 - Try getting All The Perfect Run Relics to get 100% completion.
This took me so many days to beat Arkham Knight with so much amount of luck. Guess I am the Gamer that Gotham deserves, right?
Hey, the thumbnail is MUUUUUUUUSIC MAAAAAAAAN
I clicked sooo fast because of it🤣🤣🤟🤟
The perfect ending for ME2 is easy to get unless your playing it without caring about the outcomes. Isnt that difficult to finish all squad mates missions or to level up the ship, takes time but its not like its overly difficult or a massive grind. 1st playthrough everyone survived without any issues at all. 2nd playthrough i had to go out of my way to not do missions or upgrade ship and purposefully chose the wrong people for the final mission roles. lol. Funny thing is, as usual, live or die, you couldnt play as any of them in ME3 anyway - as i said, the choices never mattered in the ME games.
Yea, I've only lost any squadmates when doing intentionally dumb and wrong things just to see it.
Even though, its not an ending, but saving both the Geth and Quarians was more difficult in ME3. As you need to have balence of both renegade and paragon points to convince the Quarian generals from not engaging with the Geth after they are freed from the reaper code
Last level in Super Ghouls and Ghosts on the second loop is hard because of the psycho cannon hasn't got great reach against astaroth and Nebiroth as they keep moving back and forward. Also it's a race against time but if you have the golden armour it can help but the pressure is still there.
Mass Effect 2 ending i did completely by accident 1st time round tbh lol
God Shadow the Hedgehog was such a chore to get the true ending. Sonic Heroes wasn't much better.
Love your videos!😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤
Best thumbnail choice
It's honestly more difficult to get the Shepard dies ending of ME2. You need to actively not talk to anyone, not buy any upgrades, purposely pick all the worst options for each task, and specifically leave low survival teammates behind at the end. Their survival level is hidden in the code of the game and not told to the player.
The decision to save everyone is one that can be made at most points in the story. The option to lose everyone is one you need to actively work towards from the very start of your playthrough.
the Chrono Trigger ending isn't that hard to get if you use New Game Plus enough to become overleveled, and since the game is amazing, it's no problem to keep playing through it over and over. the "real" Hades ending is difficult to get because you have to beat the game ten times, and just beating it once is really hard to begin with.
Even just 1 playthrough of Chrono Trigger is enough to beat Lavos immediately in New Game Plus if you've picked up the best equipment.
And I thought the hardest ending in a video game was getting all of the Chaos Emeralds in a Sonic game. Yet again, I’m not that good at the Sonic franchise’s special stages.
Oh, and a bonus, if you’re doing a top 20 hardest to unlock secret modes, I’d recommend the one where you’d have to get a perfect in every Sonic Mania Blue Spheres stage. You’d practically have to be a masochist to beat them all.
Bomberman 64’s true ending has to be one of the absolute HARDEST on the Nintendo 64. First you have to acquire all 100 Gold Cards in all the levels, then you have to beat Rainbow Palace with some of the most frustrating and cryptic puzzling solving in a game before finally tackling the true final boss.
Even though, its not an ending, but saving both the Geth and Quarians was more difficult in ME3. As you need to have balence of both renegade and paragon points to convince the Quarian generals from not engaging with the Geth after they are freed from the reaper code...
No, you need to have done Tali’s loyalty mission in 2 and not gotten her exiled. You also had to do legion’s loyalty mission in 2 and do not let han gerrel sacrifice himself with his crew. Also actually do all the side missions for legion in 3 before starting the main mission. Then you opt for peace when legion is uploading. It’s not based on renegade or paragon at all.
Actually, having everyone including Shepard die is the hardest ending of Mass Effect 2. I've never gotten it, because there are a litany of things you actively need to do (badly) in order to achieve it. The difficult part is Miranda, because if she's the last member of the crew, she won't die after you kill the human Reaper. So she needs to die in one of the prior parts of the mission, which requires specific squadmate selection as she can survive those parts even if she's not loyal, if you don't have the right squad configuration.
Getting the Best Ending on Cave Story should have been on this list. It should of been in the top 3. It's convoluted and difficult as hell. The jump you have to do in the Labyrinth just so you don't fall and acquire the Booster item too soon from the Professor like had to be pixel-perfect. It was unreal. And at the end, the game basically forces you to do one-HELL-of-a-speedrun to the true final boss of the game, Ballos and he has like 3 forms. The game is a 2D-Pixel shooter sidescroller and it was pretty damn good, story and everything. But was very challenging.
Great video Watchmojo.
SMT 3 Nocturne's true Demon ending is a pain to do without a guide. Demon fusing can be tideous for skills, bosses can easliy screw you over if your team doesn't null or resistence against their attacks, the five mandatory dungeons are annoying as hell, and the final boss lucifer can instant kill with double high king.
Yeah and the neutral ending in SMT IV
@@ethanknight1031as about to say that
Appropriately enough, Super Ghosts & Goblins is exactly where it should be.
saving Sol in Lost Kingdom's 2 (which leads to a secret ending) is pretty tough. also DK country 3's secret ending is difficult
14:38 Speaking of Kingdom Hearts, they say there will be a Kingdom Hearts IV, but I haven’t seen anything new about it lately, ever since it was announced.
Mass Effect 3's ending where shepherd lives is the hardest to get for me since you have you have to make key decisions through our all 3 games to get the war asset points you need to actually get the ending
I got the old one ending it was a little hard but using a guide gehrman took me 5 tries did the moon presence in 2 but i didn't think it was all that bad
What about the bonus ending from Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward?
To get it you have to find the alternative solution to all 16 escape rooms, and the ending was only added after the 2011 earthquake and tsunami to add a more uplifting note to the end of the game (even though the events of this ending are confirmed to be non-canon)
I remember that. Since that ending was added in so late in development, it was never going to work into the 3rd game without major inconsistenty
In general the puzzles in VLR even during regular routes were infuriating compared to Nonary Games imo. Even the initial elevator escape seemed harder than anything in Nonary Games lmao. I still haven't played the third game yet.
The best way to get the Mass Effect 2 best ending for me is to do all loyalty missions (If you have all loyalty missions done these next choices will not fail), Bring your two best teammates with you for team one but make garrus the leader of team 2, have Kasumi traverse the vents as you push through the collector base. For the second phase, pick samara to be your biotic sheild, and for team 2 try to pick characters with a bit more authority, i chose miranda and the team was fine. Next have mordin escort the surviving crew members back to joker. For the final assult, pick your two best characters to take with you but leave grunt just so the rest of the team can have a bit more manpower. Next you just have to battle through the collectors, kill the boss and then you win, if you do this right, everyone should be alive at the end.
I feel like all the other ending below it are much harder to get than saving everyone in ME2
@@corneliusgegan6773 oh absolutely, but it doesn't make ME2 perfect ending any easier
Lol the way you said Tidus.
Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time’s 106% ending
Expected to see ffx-2. Even with a guide, its still very easy to miss that one thing for 100%
This may be out of the blue, but what’s the name of the game with the crazy samurai that got beheaded and the doctor that thought he was being eaten by zombies but it was him and the very suggestive… cop? Or was she a nurse? No, definitely a cop.
The Good Ending Metro The Last Light and Saving Everyone Mass Effect 2 and Becoming An Old One Bloodborne was a struggle for me on the PS3 or on the PS4
For me its Pokémon Platinum Champion Cynthia battle 😢
I gotten the Arkham asylum riddler trophy a few times and boy they were challenging
Ok so there is a cheese strat I found in kh1 for the secret ending which I didn't get to see even though I did everything but my game crashed on the FINAL CUTSCENE anyways so the time trials in the cups or for any of those mini games you don't actually have to beat them, you see on normal difficulty you only need to complete the journal so beating it is not required you just have to attempt it and the mini game is logged, granted it still is hard since you do have to do it solo but its not horrible and could save you from doing what is probably the hardest part of 100% I know I actually did break my computer on this
20:30 Cool cameos of the manga authors.
just 1 manga author in that ending (Akira Toriyama)
the rest are Yuji Horii (creator of Dragon Quest), Hironobu Sakaguchi (creator of Final Fantasy), Kazuhiko Aoki (game producer) and Nobuo Uematsu (legendary video game composer)
those 5 are collectively known as the Dream Team back when Chrono Trigger was in development
I'm surprised House didn't make the list. All the different things to do to get different endings because of them should've made it an easy top 20
Getting Sekiro true ending & Saving everyone in Mass Effect 2 were some of the best moments i swear 🔥
I miss your guys Bartending Tips videos
The embrace the void ending with the delicate flower should be on this list because to get this ending, you have to complete pantheon of hallownest in which you have to fight every boss in hollow knight (except the hollow knight and the radiance) where there would be the easy ones like gruz mother, vengefly king, and false knight, the moderate ones like troupe master Grimm, Oro and Mato, and hornet sentinel, and the ones that will piss you off while fighting like grey prince zote, nightmare king Grimm, pure vessel (who is hollow knight on steroids), and absolute radiance (who is the radiance on steroids). And before you even do the pantheon of hallownest, you have to bring the delicate flower from queens garden to the godseeker in which if you take a single hit during the delivery, the flower gets obliterated, if you ride the stag, the flower gets obliterated, if you even use the dream gate, the flower gets fucking obliterated, and you have to do the whole delivery all over again.
Playing Prey 2017 on Nightmare difficulty, with very limited resources and items and NOT killing anyone is a nice one too.
You are scarce on ammo, several characters are mind controlled by aliens and they die if you come too close and you can also kill survivors on accident when you throw a grenade that gives you resources when it explodes near aliens or simple items like chairs and tables and such......Killing every single survivor is a fun thing too. YOU need to kill the survivors own handed. Not aliens or explosions.
I got all the endings in Shadow the Hedgehog, it was rough but very replay value to be honest.
Of course, It's amazing how they made a title for every possible story path combination you can make. over 300. Thankfully you don't have to see all of them. My only regret is that I never been able to a rank to mission that could have unlocked expert mode
fr tho hollow knight's embrace the void ending is one hell of a dificulty, not only are there 5 pantheons you have to go through but the last one is a boss rush of every single boss, with the last one being THE ABSOLUTE RADIANCE (the radiance but more damage and faster attacks)
I had a hunch Shadow the Hedgehog would be on here.
I enjoyed the game personally, so playing it through multiple times to get Last Story wasn't something I minded doing.
Heck, I even kept trying varying choices for the different titled quests, of which there's over a hundred somehow.
Never got them all, mostly because I couldn't figure out how 😅
It was also the first game I beat before my brother back then.
In fact, he never figured out how to beat it because he couldn't complete the evil path
Impossible mode on dead space. About to do my first attempt
Good luck.
I've only played ME2 once and I didn't have a hard time saving everyone. Unless you count that one ensign lady who apparently dies if you don't start that final mission quickly enough lol. But as far as your party members go, I didn't have any problems.
Any jrpg that requires doing everything perfectly correctly for a true ending. I am not talking about just a handful of correct answers. I am talking about hundreds of optional dialogue that has to be done in the correct order with the correct replies and they can only be found using a limited resource such as a restricted number of uses of a search skill to find the hidden events in the massive overworld.
Saving everyone in Mass Effect 2 not difficult tho, its more about taking the time to do the side missions for each companion and upgrading the ship
Dragon Quest VIII on PS2. You had to beat all of the dragons after beating the game the first time, then beat the game again afterwards to get the true good ending. It took my roommate and I an extra 20-40 hours after the main game to complete it. So exhausting 😩
The best ending to Call of Duty Black Ops 2 is the hardest but it was worth getting on Wii U.
The easiest ending to get... is killing Menendez which only serves to pave the way for Cordis Die to takeover America.
I don’t know about video games but there is a game called I think you heard of ET on the Atari
The way I see it, obtaining Fair and Hunger's A ending was the epitome of brutal. How do people achieve the 4 S endings the creator added afterwards!?
Becoming a old one in bloodborne wasn’t that difficult it was actually very easy
The royal true ending persona 5 royal there are three spacific characters who's confidant must be maxed or at certain rank before you get back to the present day and defeat the base game final boss.
how that is the first I've heard you mention Valkyrie Profile
When i saw sans
I knew this video will be a good one
Seeing the Knightfall Protocol ending wasn't hard to get in the least. At least for me.
Same just tedious. Riddler Trophies weren't as hard as the other games
Anyone remembers the Death road of despair in Danganronpa V3?
Getting your entire crew to survive in Mass Effect 2 was easy as hell
Getting the “Everyone Dies” ending in Fuga: Melodies of Steel is pretty hard, as you have to sacrifice 11 children prior to the final battle, then sacrifice the last one in the final battle.
There was a monster Rancher ending if I remember correctly that people didn't even know existed till years later, so I believe that should be on this list. Also maybe Detroit Become Human
What about the final secret ending of Crash Bandicoot 4? That has to be on this list somewhere.

WatchMojo isn't just one person managing YT , there are numerous of them.. 👍
so who cares
I’m just assuming ff9 on this list. That being said, I’m pleased final fantasy 9 and Valkyrie profile. VP definitely needed a guide and you needed to actually watch the opening to be clued into the fact that something wasn’t right.
If any game wants me to 100% it to get the true ending (even if i really love the game) i just see that as a massive waste of time and as such, i will NEVER do it :)
Chronotrigger secret ending was actually very easy since you can fight it in New game Plus. If I could do it as a kid, I don't think it belongs this high
Hey, WatchMojo. Can you please do a list of the Top 20 NES Soundtracks? I can give you guys a couple of examples of these 8-bit chiptunes from the Nintendo Entertainment System they should be mentioned.

Nobody gonna talk about the baldis basics ending where you have to get every question wrong
Honerable mention: "Golden" ending (True ending) from Persona 4 Golden. People had to make 2nd playthroughs because of how easy it is to miss the ending.
Shadow is a good game and it isn't playing the same game "10 times," You play 6 out of the 22 total stages in one playthrough so you're usually experiencing something different every time and most of the stages have a very fast route, you just have to do both the good and evil endings on the 5 different final stages, it's not hard or bad.
I remember the good ol'days when WatchMojo had top 10 videos.
The Good Ending Metro Last Light and Saving Everyone Mass Effect 2 and Secret Endings Kingdom Hearts Series and Extra Endings Five Nights at Freddy's Series and Becoming An Old One Bloodborne
To the guy that raided me endlessly in MGS5…I hope my entire S++ army is safe and sound in your FOB.
I think the Sekiro divine child or sacrifice ending is harder than the additional ending boss ending from Bloodborne

The CES ending in ff6 is really hard to get although not a true alternate ending.
In my opinion "Crash Bandicoot 4; it's about time" should at least have been an honorable mention... even tho it's more of a cutscene than an ending
Crash 4 is a very difficult Crash bandicoot game, even when normally trying to play it. But for the "Crash bandicoot 4 extra ending" needing to beat the game 106%, meaning to get all gems, hidden gems, N.verted gems, N.sanely perfect relics "meaning all boxes, 80% fruit, hidden gem and NOT DYING", AND platinum time relics... be prepared to suffer 😬😬
