How much assistance do you need? They might hide something in the game so well, not even they could find it.
If I looked for everything I'd find 90% of it. I doubt there's someone who can find 100% of it without looking elsewhere. I could be wrong though if the game is easy enough.
Which game are you referring to?
I think he/she refers to all games.
I guess I could get 70-80% without guides myself. Depends on the game.
Ah. In that case, it really depends on the game and what I want to do with it. With brand new games I like to get 100%, but if I'm playing the old games (eg. FFI-XII) I don't, because I don't get a trophy for it. For some of the old games I've probably done 100% anyway.
As for how much help I need from guides - generally I need a decent amount if I want to 100% the game. Especially if I there are missable items or something (one of my massive pet peeves - missable items are a horrible, terrible thing).
I enjoy 100%-ing a game, so I tend to use guides to keep me right. I need them to get 100%. If I do things by myself, I really only get through the main story mode and that's it.
I played the original two Tomb Raider games recently and most of the time I got 0 secrets from the level. That tends to be my general experience with all games, unless it's plainly obvious that the secret area/quest exists. I am just bad at finding secret areas, or hidden quests or whatever.
I rarely 100% a game. I've had a PS3 for years and still don't have 1 plat trophy. If I truly enjoy a game I will 100% it but I haven't done that in at least 10 years.
I don't spend a lot of time 100%ing games, especially RPGs. I've just got too many in my backlog to play, so some sacrifices have to be made in order to ensure I have time to play them all!
