I was fine with how that worked, it kind of gives incentive to not grind Energy Crystals and make yourself ridiculous. You also only need A rank to get skills if that's the major concern, which gives you some leeway. Can definitely understand not caring for it though.

Oh yeah. Sorry about that, I was caught in the mindset of a ranking system for either most all of the stages or the entire game.

More just a similar idea to your complaint, no particular reference to MMZ intended.

Ah, okay. Sorry about that. I also wasn't the one who complained about that mechanic, I actually defended it a couple posts later.

the only game that comes to mind that actually did this meme right was crash 1 and 2. You get the secret ending at 100% and the optional time trials take you to 105%.

Of course they fucked it up in crash 3

Donkey Kong Country 1 also did it right, since to get 101% required finding a bonus room hidden inside another bonus room.

That's in 3, but it's 105%. 1 is 101%, and 2 is 102%.
