The Ethics of Completion Repentance’s sheer scope—new floors, hundreds of items, dozens of endings—invites the completionist impulse. But completion here is not innocence; it’s an ethical negotiation. Which endings are sought, and at what cost? Grinding for unlocks, farming for specific items, or performing tedious sequences to see one final cutscene raises questions about what completion means in games that flirt with moral ambiguity. A folder of 100 saves might include speedrun attempts, methodical completionist playthroughs, and casual experiments—each a different ethical stance toward the game’s demands. Collectively, they map a player’s shifting priorities: mastery, discovery, or narrative closure.
