I'm a completionist and was really annoyed by all the mini-games/etc in Rebirth. I did all the work for the protocrelic and then at the end you have to tackle some very difficult bosses I didn't stand a chance against and would've probably really had to grind for awhile on. And many of the mini-games just weren't fun for me. If I was able to just play the main story and not all the stuff on the side I didn't like I would've liked it a lot more. Still looking forward to the last one, though.

I'm a completionist too and after hearing about the mini games and grind I just decided that I'm not willing to put in the time into Rebirth. Which, by extension, means I'm not willing to put in anytime into Remake (which I have from PS+) nor the 3rd (presumably final) game.

I had no intention of doing the side stuff in Rebirth, I was just gonna carve my own path through it for the most rewarding stuff but then I played the first two regions and the most gun I had with the game is the side stuff and mini games so far. Now, if you're going for the Platinums and you can't say no to every single checklisted item, avoid the game. But if you can go in, and say, hey I'm gonna do the main content, all the side content and max everything out within reason, I'd highly recommend. Thar said, going for the platinum in wither game would be a pain in the arse but in Rebirth I'd have to assume it would be a nightmare. Btw, when people talk of mini games, it's not as it sounds on the surface, it's just that most of the play time outside of combat us mini games in the same way puzzles would be a form of progression in an adventure title, Rebirth just slots in mini games and tbh, it works really well and is quite unique even when stuff like Like a Dragon is out there, it feels different in this title as a way to add content in between story bits, feels less like side content and more like it IS the game itself. Really fun stuff and none of it is difficult or anything, we'll at least not yet. They're all very well designed.
