I got this game a few days ago and have been having a blast playing it.

A random thought that popped into my head was this: how long do you guys think a true 100% run would take? Im talking 4 star everything in base game and all DLCs, plus all achievements(though you would get most of them throughout the 4 star grind).

I was somewhat surprised this wasnt already a category, and would love some speculation :D

The question is, does "true 100%" include actually getting the stars added to your star count? Because Overcooked 2 never grants you the 4th star retrospectively after you beat the game and unlock new game+ even if you got the required score already, you would need to play everything at least twice.

Playing through every level in the game including DLCs I'd estimate at least

• 3:20h for the base game
• 1:40h for each of the 4 major DLCs (Hangry Horde / Surf'n'Turf / Carnival of Chaos / Campfire Cook-Off
• 0:40h for each of the 6 minor DLCs (Christmas Cracker, Winter Wonderland, etc.)

So it's probably around 13-14 hours for everything if you dropped the requirement to "physically" achieve the 4th star, or 26-28 hours if you have to play everything twice.

Just a raw estimation though.

I created this category already for the AYCE Version, because I setup everything from scratch anyways. I never added it here because there was no demand yet. I'm still in the process of adding the DLCs as separate runs though.

Ofc you can cut these times short by trying to beat it with the Modded version instead, currently it has no option to automatically end at the 4 star score though so you'd have to trigger that manually every time.

Even though it would not save that much time after all, since 4 star scores tend to be very high and try to push the limits for what's possible within the given time limit.

Wow! Thats a long time, but makes sense. I'll probably never be good enough to attempt that but I might attempt some speedruns in the future. Thanks for humoring my question :D
