'I'm the type of player who loves to 100% a game': SungWon Cho on achievement hunting, why he doesn’t like multiplayer games, and the one Balatro joker that nearly drove him to despair
The actor and YouTuber guides us through the games on his PC.
SungWon Cho, a prominent figure in the gaming world, has a unique approach to gaming that revolves around the concept of 100% completion. From his early days with adventure games like Freddi Fish and Spy Fox, to his current YouTube channel with nearly four million subscribers, Cho's passion for gaming is evident.
Currently, Cho is not playing any games on PC, with his last obsession being Dave the Diver. He finds the gameplay loop satisfying and enjoys the art and mechanics of the game. However, he prefers to save his PC gaming for titles he can fully immerse himself in, like Dave the Diver.
One of Cho's most recent gaming experiences was Hades 2, a game he fully completed in 120 hours. He appreciates the casting system and the added challenge in the second installment. Despite not playing the earlier Hades game, Cho still has it installed on his PC, albeit unused due to laziness.
Cho's Steam library boasts the oldest game, VVVVVV, a puzzle-platformer that he played on his Let's Play channel. He also has Civilization 5 installed, but hasn't ventured into other iterations. The player admits to having unfulfilled intentions to achieve 100% completion of the entire franchise.
Balatro is the game that has consumed Cho for 354 hours, with the final achievement of obtaining gold with every joker, particularly the elusive obelisk, being his greatest challenge. He has a fear of the obelisk joker, but his mastery of the game has allowed him to conquer it easily.
