Winning in Bad Fur Day can sometimes be a long process with many obstacles, so achieving victory has to be satisfying otherwise I would have to stop playing. What makes winning so awesome in Bad Fur Day is that you will usually be shown a sweet cut scene to reward you. For example, after completing a long mission that is partly based on the film Saving Private Ryan, you escape to a boat that carries you away from the war zone. You then get to listen to Conker and his Sergeant have a conversation about how terrible war is, and how the 'bigwigs' just send off the young to die. The best part is when the Sergeant repeats "the horror, the horror."
Winning in Bad Fur Day can be difficult but it is harder to lose (unless that is your goal, in which case it is easy. There are squirrel tails all over the game that give you either one more life, or ten more lives. Also, if you fail a mission the first time, don't worry, you will always be able to just try it again.
Throughout the game there different levels of satisfaction gained by completing tasks. For a minor thing such as finding money, a cut scene will show conker saying something clever about money, or he will have his eyes turn into the spinning wheel with dollar signs on them like a slot machine.
When you beat the entire game, Conker becomes king. I know this because the game starts by telling you this. In my replaying of the game, I have been extremely unsuccessful at achieving the ultimate victory thus far.
you pointed out something that's true for a lot of games - it's tough to actually win. challenges are too difficult or losses early on cancel out your later wins. I wonder how players react to that?
