  I can't believe those stupid gems in Skyrim didn't make the list. I can't think of a more grueling and not worth it quest

  The last time I did the 200 lightning bolts I decided that counting them was giving me anxiety so I just dodged until I got hit and I ended up dodging 498 in a row.

  John's "It's... art." is still SO FUNNY.

  I absolutely love the idea of the wife hating the squirrel so much she hikes up a mountain.

  Getting all of the animals in RDR2 was indeed tough, but honestly, it was worth it to see Abigail come up with increasingly convoluted ways of getting it off of the mantel.

  I did the Lightning Dodge for FF X but I feel like the chocobo race thing with the birds and balloons to receive a time of 0 was way harder. Also, the trophy for 1,000 consecutive jump ropes in FF IX was just evil in my opinion and considerably harder. But that’s just my opinion.

  Shadow of the Colossus would be perfect for this list. You could hunt down 79 obscurely placed, barely visible coins throughout the game, spread through a sprawling but mostly empty map, that when finally collected unlocked some secret weapon, but by that point there was hardly any use for it.

  As a few people have already pointed out, you get more than just a bronze trophy for dodging the lightning. You get an item required for Lulu's ultimate weapon. It also allows Shiva to break damage limit, as Aeons are tied to specific characters for that. And honestly, Final Fantasy X could easily have had multiple entries on this list if ultimate weapons are not worth it. God damn butterfly minigame. And chocobo racing. And some would say the same about blitzball, but I enjoyed that one personally.

  I love how OX emphasizes sawblades in the delicate flower quest like people think they need to complete the Path of Pain with the flower in their inventory.

  I love how polite John Marston is when he finds someone crazy 😂 one of the things about the character that made me fall for him was the fact that, despite he knowing the violent skills of a criminal, he shows that he really tries to live a more righteous life.<br><br>I like RDR and GTA IV to the point that I did those side quests, more than once 😂

  The taxidermied squirrel could be an allegory for as you said it &quot;the doomed cowboy&quot; you can run, scamper and scurry, but in the end, you&apos;re always going to be brought back home

  I learned how to play Hollow Knight so much better after doing the delicate flower quest. Can pretty much do it every time without fail nowadays so it was a good learning experience.
