How hard is it to get all the achievements? (FF13)
I'm currently still at Chapter 5 & I've collected every floating ball that I come across so far. (3 Spark Rings & 2 Ember Rings + Weapons)

But I honestly still confused with the combat system in this game, which most of the time I only spam auto-attacks & when a party member is low on health, I'd switch to a medic role / use potion. I got really spoiled by FF15 (my first 100% FF game) & FF16 (second 100%) with the free hit combat system.

And from guides / tutorials that I've watched, heard & read there are many trials & 64 missions that I need to overcome + weapon upgrades. It sounds pretty grindy compared to 2 other FF games mentioned above.

How long does it take to get all the achievements for this game? how long did it take you?

Is it possible for me to obtain all of the achievements?

How is anyone supposed to know that? :-) if you want to spend all that time grinding and trying to "5 star" ultra-difficult fights, then you might be able to.

I generally assume that the achievements in games are achievable.

Google is your friend. It seems like 100% should take you about 100 hours, give or take. You'll probably want to play it with a 100% guide open and double-check each area's list before moving on.

No achievement is missable, so you can do a 100% in one playthrough.
The only thing that can make you unable to get them all is by selling the 6 elemental Rings (even though you can get them back by dismantling elemental Charms). Despite this, every weapons can be bought, most equipments can be bought and stand alone equipments are obtainable via hunts and chests.

The 100% is not hard if you know what you're doing.

Why do you care so much about 100%? What are you playing for? To have fun or to show achievements to some underground club and move on to another title?

What is it to you?
There are many reason for gamers to go for 100% achievement.
For me it's simple fact that I'm sort of completist.
I don't boast about my achievs anywhere, I just play the game to it's fullest.

It's state of the mind, to experience everything possible that was made in the game.
Getting 100% achievements is also sort of tribute to the game developers.

Also you can get all achievs and still play for fun.
I already got FFXIII 100% complete some time ago, and recently returned for another "new game" playtrough just because I like this game for some reason.
