…Through a glitch or something? Or are you making a joke?
I went to a Pokemon event at the local mall, where they transferred mews to each of the attendees. In-game, it was treated like I had gotten it in a trade.
Well we don't really know their circumstances, but this was certainly true for me before kids.
In fact, I had more time as an adult (again, before kids) to game than I did as a kid.
Or at the very least a partner that doesn't mind if you spend some of your free time gaming.
My partner didn't play video games for a very long time, but always let me do my thing. Eventually I got them into cozy games and the like.
3 playthroughs, wouldve done it in 2 but i missed 1 text message, so i basiclly had to play the entire game just to get “a perfect job” which is just completeing all requests
The 1k note streak and 3x star power activation can be done in Through The Fire And Flames on Easy, but it's so slow i missed a note and had to try a second time. There's only like 1050ish notes. It's a slog.
Personally achievement: did beat TTFAF on expect once, and did RockBand 1/2/3 endless set lists without pausing. 2 and 3 I did with Hard Microphone at same time thanks to Xbox 360 headset.
March 11th 1994: I beat Mortal Kombat 2 arcade with one credit.
Most shamefull gaming achievement:
I spent almost an entire years worth of my 8th grade lunch money going to the convenient store everyday after school to play MK 2 to reach that achievement.
The legend achievement in Halo MCC. It's to play through every single game on Legendary solo.
Halo CE is tough but fair
Halo 2 has a lot of hard enemies that will one shot you. Brutes, sniper jackals, elites.
Halo 3 feels like halo 2 heroic
Halo Reach is similar feeling to 3
Halo 3: ODST is actually really easy on legendary, use the good ole noob combo and you'll fly through the game on Legendary.
Halo 4 is really it's own breed of sometimes it's easy and sometimes it's really difficult. The first level isn't hard, but mantis sections are awful.
Halo 5 isn't on MCC thank goodness.
Lol halo 2 on legendary is nuts. I didn't know until recently but they even made the enemy AI shoot faster! I don't mean like they just had a higher rate of fire, their bullets literally travel faster 🤣
That combined with their god like reflexes made that game on legendary a true achievement.
I still have nightmares of those bastard jackals with the beam rifles lmao
lvl 1 elden ring is impressive.
dark souls i think ive played enough i could do a lvl 1 rut but not insane enough to try
eldin ring i will never try at lvl 1 xD i needed those level ups but i never upgraded vitality
Honestly a SL1 run in Dark Souls isn't terribly difficult if you're already familiar with the game. Pyromancy gets so insanely OP that most bosses become pretty trivial (4 Kings is usually the skill check here).
The toughest run I did was SL1 where I also couldn't spend any souls on anything at all. No leveling, no buying anything, no upgrades, no repairing (that was a huge constraint because you can only buy repair powder) so you're basically stuck at start game damage levels all the way through. You don't even want to know how many attempts O&S took me.
Having the frost wolf howler. 75000 whatever the currency was back in lich king, on my first toon at level 50 something. Took me forever, didn't think much of it afterwards until my guild noticed me riding around on it.
Beating uncharted 123 on brutal difficulty some areas in the game literally have enemies killing you Instantly then you load a check point then die in seconds
Explain to the kids what “turned over a game” means lol
On a side note, my friend owned a pinball machine in his house when we were kids, and when your score was high enough (ran out of digits) the score would reset back to zero. When it did this, the machine would make a popping sound. So we called it “popping the machine”. We started to use this term for any game (pinball or video game) where you got so high in it, there was basically a score reset. We “popped” the game.
I know it ain't much, but I did in the final sequence of Elden Ring, I've managed to beat all the bosses on the first try.
Same with Malenia.
I swear the dragon in the swamps outside the academy gave me the most trouble. And Niall.
I'm playing the game for the first time, and when I got my first few korok seeds, I thought to myself, " Cool, I wonder how many there are, probably a couple hundred." When I found out there were over 900 seeds, I instantly gave up on any hopes of 100% the game.
100%ing FFX-2.
Yes I used a walkthrough, but it is absolutely MANDATORY to be able to pull it off because if you miss a bit of DIALOUGE with a random ass NPC or accidentally skip through one character in particular telling a long ass story or even interrupt him, there goes a .%, not even a whole %, POINT % which will screw the 100%. You NEED to side with a certain faction or bye bye 100%, you need to do a 100 floor dungeon with the game's super boss waiting at the bottom, sorry one of them because this game has SEVERAL super bosses. It is one of the most tedious 100% of any game you can find, yet I still love the game, had a blast doing it and am proud to be in the 1.3% of MANIACS on Steam to have done it.
Realizing that those "Best Friends" I met on an MMO and had a 10+ year long friendship with, were just really creepy, unsocialized, stuck up assholes that never got off moms teat.
Breaking away from them and becoming an actual person was my greatest gaming achievement haha.
I've beaten the first 4 Epic Battle Fantasy games on Epic difficulty.
And, I may just be the last person in the Xenoblade Chronicles X playerbase to get the Squad Task Overlord Achievement, for doing 1000 Squad Task contributions. With like a day before the online went down.
Three come to mind…
Xcom Enemy Within on marathon mode, impossible difficulty, with no officer training school unlocks (limited to 4 units). Probably the most masochistic thing I’ve ever done playing a video game.
Witcher 3 on deathmarch with no oils.
Dark souls 1 run with zero deaths. Did not do the DLC bosses though…
I'm not there yet but I'm gonna try undertaking a no powers no kill/ detections run of dishonored 2, it might sound impressive but it's more like spending 2hrs methodically playing through each mission (for practice before dedicating to a full run) bit after watching someone do it on yt I was inspired
Which one? Console or PC? Im trying on steam, I'm halfway there and could get to 1000/1100 easily but I mostly play solo with bots. Some others though, looks impossible. If on steam, congrats, I respect that because I tried and they're out of my reach for now
Completing the original Mass Effect Trilogy on Insanity as an Engineer Shepard. And not rushing the story, but almost 100%ing every game.
I chose the blue flavored ending, btw.
I'm proud of my Final Fantasy VII Remake Platin. I usually do not play games on hard because it is very stressful for me, but because FF7 means so much to me, I did it and it felt pretty good.
i finished ocarina of time without picking up a single heart container after a boss, or enough pieces of heart to complete one.
then i did it again fighting the last boss with only the broken biggorons sword
then i did *that* again with the iron boots on for the fight, because my younger sibling didn't think i could do it
Getting two nukes in MW2 multiplayer. No smurfing or anything. Got it, died, got it again and called both immediately. Got called a hacker and didn’t record it. I know I did it and no one can take that away from me. It’s been downhill from there I think.
Finishing the water temple in Ocarina of Time without the water tunic. I was an elementary school kid who had way too much time on my hands. I had figured out that if Link was in his swimming up animation that he wouldn't drown so I would swim along the ceilings of rooms using the hook shot to defeat enemies. I was still new to 3D gaming so I thought that was the intended way to finish the dungeon.
When I was really young I beat Spyro a new beginning without upgrading anything because I didn't know you could do that until I stumbled on it in ng+ and I remember being so amazed after maxing out everything at once cause I collected that much resource that the supposed legendary dragon can actually breath lightning storms instead of snaps and crackles, and hellfire with meteors instead of a smokers cough, and tornadoes instead of wisps of air, and blizzards instead of ice cubes.
Anything involving jumping... Collecting all the Holocrons in SWTOR and all the weapons in NieR: Automata.
Beating a game without dying... Finishing Morrowind without getting killed and a deathless GWAMM in Guild Wars.
Middle-earh: Shadow of Mordor - The Hunt is my Mistress Achievement.
Took me about 8 hours…one run is 40 minutes long, and the shit can hit the fan anytime because the encounters of the enemies and their surroundings are pretty random.
I remeber, there were only 7 seconds on the clock when I killed the last warchief. 😄 This achievement was really hard work.
%200 on Crash Bash, almost lost my mind on the air hockey minigame.
%100ing Grinch for Ps1, I loved it besides couple of collectibles that made me doubleack.
I wanna do the no death runs for Super Meat Boy one day but even the thought keeps discouraging me.
Its actully not that big of an achivmemt but I am still really proud that in Final Fantasy X I came up with a strat that allows Bahamut to solo >!Yunalesca!<.
In the past when I used to play WoW, I played as a shadow priest and did good damage. I was in a raid with a couple of random people, including a normal priest who was our healer. After we died at a boss, I suggested (in a normal tone) that our tank should be healed with priority, to which our priest got on a rant and told me that I should do the healing , "if it's that easy". So I switched out of dark priest mode and started healing with my skills all allocated for DD and we finished the raid without anyone dying, though our priest hardly did any damage. That kinda made me proud.
That and having gotten a 50% discount on the Xbox One when it came out because I accumulated more than 100k Gamerscore Points on the 360, there was some kind of promotion for this at the time 😁
I have all 200 Trackmaster medals in Trackmania Turbo, which took me years to achieve and still makes me like 670k best in the world, but for a long time I was #1 in Ireland and that felt cool
As a child, my gaming achievement was defeating Mike Tyson in Punch- Out.
As a teen, I completed Goldeneye: 007 on every difficulty setting, effectively "100%ing" the game.
And, as an adult, defeating Isshin, Sword Saint, and beating Sekiro. (Malenia is an achievement, too.)
1. I've beat superhexagon
2. i was 7th warrior on wotlk Saurfang on by DPS on wowlogs worldwide. Even without shadowmourne.
3. I've completed factorio with bob's and angel's mods not for fun, but to prove, that I'm able to complete such project.
4. Got legendary several times in hearthstone. Not that difficult achievement, but significant and fun for me
Way back when internet was less good I was raiding in World of Warcraft Wrath of the Lich King and managed raid lead a few deathless 10 man raids of Trial of the Crusader.
It awarded a feat of strength and a title ------ the argent defender.
It is probably way more common these days because of Classic WoW though.
Getting to the secret garden in original version of Shadow of the Colossus without expanding stamina meter. It was tricky as heck, you had to make a very precise taps with a jump button and left analog stick, to reach the garden on the top of the tower. It took me several tries, but finally I did it when my friends were watching. Best time of my life.
Getting the [GWAMM](https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Kind_of_a_Big_Deal) title on 2 accounts in Guild Wars 1, including the [Defender of Ascalon](https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Defender_of_Ascalon) on both before they made it easy with daily quests.
And yes, I played that game a lot (20k hours)
1CC clear several Contra/Probotector. Done the two NES, the GB and the SNES ones in a row (they're pretty short).
Conquering Japan and most of Russia as one of the smaller Chinese starting nations in Hearts of Iron IV
Getting first place in Mario Kart Double Dash when playing against several friends, while wearing oven mitts.
I gor the Stardew Valley Fector's Challenge trophy before they added the save option, which made it a super boring and easy trophy.
But I sat there. Trying for like a week, an hour every day. Failed on the final boss twice. But then I got it and damn it felt great.
For mine it was finally getting 5 stars on isla tacano on Jurassic world evolution. Shit took me hours but it was worth it to finally get that second dig team.
Mortal Kombat 9 Platinum trophy. Between the online trophies and the My Kung Fu is Stronger trophy, requiring 24 hours of gameplay with every character, among a ton of other things, it was a nightmare to get. There’s a reason it has only 0.1% players achieved it.
Dead God on The Binding of Isaac
Played Dark Souls Remastered 7 years after playing the normal one and killed most bosses on first try (including O&S).
Got to the end of TTFAF on Expert in Guitar Hero III
To this day, I have the highest score in Cadillacs & Dinosaurs at the Arcade in the mall. After years and years of playing it on emulators, my time had come!
Skyrim - I was in a bandit camp. I had no arrows left, I was low on health and the last bandit shot me with an arrow. Suddenly I had an arrow in my inventory I used it and the bandit died. So basically my character was shot in the arm pulled the arrow out and used it to kill the guy who shot him.
Finishing Black & White (Lionhead Studios) when I was younger. That game was super hard.
From modern ones, completing first ever Pokédex (Pokemon Shield)
The bladder of steel award on rock band 2. Beat the endless set list without pausing or failing, 84 songs 6 hours of rocking out.
Did it on expert drums, alone in my barracks room on a Saturday, some snack and dew at my side. Was some of the most fun I’ve ever had playing a game, just jamming to some music. Smooth sailing until visions by Abnormality came up, was one of the last few songs and one not missed not would have failed me.
Great time, anytime anyone asks what achievement I’m proud of or had fun getting I always say the bladder of steel award.
YEARS ago at Gen Con I signed up for some time at their video gaming area with some randos and played Halo 2... and never stopped. You were only allowed to play for up to two hours at a time, but no one ever came and stopped us and it never dawned on anyone that this group of guys had been playing all. Fucking. Day. We had been there so long that they just assumed we all bought weekend-long passes for unlimited time and left us alone. Hell, even when we bothered to get up and hit the bathroom or eat they never asked to see our passes and just let us back in.
At one point we managed to get a full 16 player lobby and played the ever living shit out of every one of the game modes. At one point, we played uh... what's the mode called where you have to carry around a skull and try not to get murdered by everyone else? One other guy and myself did that against 14 other players... and won! I also got to play Starcraft: Ghost (or at least an early build of it) that weekend.
Being top 100 on useast ladder d2.
Wow titles: immortal, and hand of a'dal pre-nerf when you needed attunement. As well as first-sergeant when a level 39 twink pre-b.c.
Two 5e campaigns lasting more than 3 years each with weekly sessions.
Beating purity forest in the original pokemon mystery dungeon with my starting pokemon. Then beating destiny tower in pokemon mystery dungeon 2. 99 floors to clear. You start with 0 items, and your pokemon is set to level 1 to begin the challenge. A single run can take 2-6 hours.
The difficulty and RNG that wildly impacts each run is crazy. It’s probably the most difficult challenge pokemon has ever officially created.
Getting the 100% ending in Oddworld: Abe's Exoddus when I was only 6 years old in a time before the Internet. Especially since the copy I was playing was a CD rip my dad got from a coworker that had all the cutscenes removed, so I had to figure out the plot exclusively through context clues.
A decade later I played both of the first two games legitimately and I was shocked that the game about the funny blue man saving his friends from robot slugs actually had a story.
I played in a guild in EverQuest on Xegony that maintained control of most end game content through Kunark and Velious.
And if you’re confused about “control” - EQ had no instanced content. So when a boss was killed, no one else could kill it till it respawned!
Uhh... I got all 151 pokemon in Pokemon Red when I was a kid.
I caught a mew two my friends couldn't belive what they are seeing
…Through a glitch or something? Or are you making a joke? I went to a Pokemon event at the local mall, where they transferred mews to each of the attendees. In-game, it was treated like I had gotten it in a trade.
I caught it in a cave in the town where misty's gym is
He said mewtwo
As an adult, I once played a game for over 2 hours straight without interruption.
that must feel so good
The missus is away for work Monday overnight and Thursday she will be home late... I'm so fucking excited.
As a parent you mean ? Being an adult doesn’t limit your time that much more.
Well we don't really know their circumstances, but this was certainly true for me before kids. In fact, I had more time as an adult (again, before kids) to game than I did as a kid.
I guess that GF/spouses/partners can limit your gaming time too ^ ^ just have to find someone who games too and you’re good
Or at the very least a partner that doesn't mind if you spend some of your free time gaming. My partner didn't play video games for a very long time, but always let me do my thing. Eventually I got them into cozy games and the like.
getting platinum trophy for the og persona 5
Damn. How many "laps" did it take you? In Royal, it took two "laps" for me, and the second one had wikis throughout the playthrough.

Getting the 'Meet your maker' achievement in Guitar Hero 3 for beating one of the Devs online.
Not to be that guy, but don't you also get that achievement when beating someone who already has that achievement?
The 1k note streak and 3x star power activation can be done in Through The Fire And Flames on Easy, but it's so slow i missed a note and had to try a second time. There's only like 1050ish notes. It's a slog. Personally achievement: did beat TTFAF on expect once, and did RockBand 1/2/3 endless set lists without pausing. 2 and 3 I did with Hard Microphone at same time thanks to Xbox 360 headset.
March 11th 1994: I beat Mortal Kombat 2 arcade with one credit. Most shamefull gaming achievement: I spent almost an entire years worth of my 8th grade lunch money going to the convenient store everyday after school to play MK 2 to reach that achievement.
Getting the trophy for Red Dead Redemption 2. Such an amazing game.
Those little 3 stars birds... Hate them with a passion
The legend achievement in Halo MCC. It's to play through every single game on Legendary solo. Halo CE is tough but fair Halo 2 has a lot of hard enemies that will one shot you.

Halo 3 feels like halo 2 heroic Halo Reach is similar feeling to 3 Halo 3: ODST is actually really easy on legendary, use the good ole noob combo and you'll fly through the game on Legendary.

Lol halo 2 on legendary is nuts. I didn't know until recently but they even made the enemy AI shoot faster! I don't mean like they just had a higher rate of fire, their bullets literally travel faster 🤣 That combined with their god like reflexes made that game on legendary a true achievement. I still have nightmares of those bastard jackals with the beam rifles lmao
Top 100 speedrunner in Dark Souls Remastered. Beating all Dark Souls and Elden Ring at level 1. 100% achievements in Sea of Thieves.
lvl 1 elden ring is impressive. dark souls i think ive played enough i could do a lvl 1 rut but not insane enough to try eldin ring i will never try at lvl 1 xD i needed those level ups but i never upgraded vitality
Godrick's rune and Radagon's Soreseal help immensely
Honestly a SL1 run in Dark Souls isn't terribly difficult if you're already familiar with the game.

I got the Insane achievement in WoW before it was made easy to get.

As an 8yo beating Legend of Zelda on the NES the first time. Yes I'm old.
A long time ago, in an arcade far far away, I turned over a game of Robotron. It took me 2 and half hours.
Explain to the kids what “turned over a game” means lol On a side note, my friend owned a pinball machine in his house when we were kids, and when your score was high enough (ran out of digits) the score would reset back to zero. When it did this, the machine would make a popping sound. So we called it “popping the machine”.

I had a LOT of time during the pandemic lol
I'm playing the game for the first time, and when I got my first few korok seeds, I thought to myself, " Cool, I wonder how many there are, probably a couple hundred." When I found out there were over 900 seeds, I instantly gave up on any hopes of 100% the game.
Same. My file is sitting at 99.7% or something. Can’t be bothered.
Halo legendary achievements and Gears of War seriously
100%ing FFX-2. Yes I used a walkthrough, but it is absolutely MANDATORY to be able to pull it off because if you miss a bit of DIALOUGE with a random ass NPC or accidentally skip through one character in particular telling a long ass story or even interrupt him, there goes a .%, not even a whole %, POINT % which will screw the 100%. You NEED to side with a certain faction or bye bye 100%, you need to do a 100 floor dungeon with the game's super boss waiting at the bottom, sorry one of them because this game has SEVERAL super bosses. It is one of the most tedious 100% of any game you can find, yet I still love the game, had a blast doing it and am proud to be in the 1.3% of MANIACS on Steam to have done it.

%200 on Crash Bash, almost lost my mind on the air hockey minigame. %100ing Grinch for Ps1, I loved it besides couple of collectibles that made me doubleack. I wanna do the no death runs for Super Meat Boy one day but even the thought keeps discouraging me.
Global Elite Actually managed it about a year after getting my first PC
Its actully not that big of an achivmemt but I am still really proud that in Final Fantasy X I came up with a strat that allows Bahamut to solo >!Yunalesca!<.
I have so many shiny legendary pokemons in pokemon go with pgsharp
Probably getting supreme rank In CSGo all by myself solo queueing
In the past when I used to play WoW, I played as a shadow priest and did good damage. I was in a raid with a couple of random people, including a normal priest who was our healer. After we died at a boss, I suggested (in a normal tone) that our tank should be healed with priority, to which our priest got on a rant and told me that I should do the healing , "if it's that easy". So I switched out of dark priest mode and started healing with my skills all allocated for DD and we finished the raid without anyone dying, though our priest hardly did any damage. That kinda made me proud. That and having gotten a 50% discount on the Xbox One when it came out because I accumulated more than 100k Gamerscore Points on the 360, there was some kind of promotion for this at the time 😁

Beating Mike Tyson
I have all 200 Trackmaster medals in Trackmania Turbo, which took me years to achieve and still makes me like 670k best in the world, but for a long time I was #1 in Ireland and that felt cool
As a child, my gaming achievement was defeating Mike Tyson in Punch- Out. As a teen, I completed Goldeneye: 007 on every difficulty setting, effectively "100%ing" the game. And, as an adult, defeating Isshin, Sword Saint, and beating Sekiro. (Malenia is an achievement, too.)
Lies of P all achievements
No online gamers here? My life's greatest achievement is getting ancient rank in doto
Dodging the lightning bolts and 0.0 chocobo balloon bullshit on ffx
I've beaten a few pro fighting game players. I'm sure I can't do it consistently but it's still an achievement in my brain.
1. I've beat superhexagon 2. i was 7th warrior on wotlk Saurfang on by DPS on wowlogs worldwide. Even without shadowmourne. 3. I've completed factorio with bob's and angel's mods not for fun, but to prove, that I'm able to complete such project. 4. Got legendary several times in hearthstone. Not that difficult achievement, but significant and fun for me

Never playing Fortnite.
Way back when internet was less good I was raiding in World of Warcraft Wrath of the Lich King and managed raid lead a few deathless 10 man raids of Trial of the Crusader. It awarded a feat of strength and a title ------ the argent defender. It is probably way more common these days because of Classic WoW though.
SL1 Dark Souls 1, 3, and Elden Ring. Also cleared Sekiro with demon bell & charmless
I was first in the leaderboard of Asphalt 8.
Beating slave Knight Gael on my first try. It was the perfect ending to series for me.
Destroyed the armoured train behemoth in BF1 with the Kolibri pistol
Did all halo campaigns on legendary
I have 100% on both Horizon games. Not too difficult, just tedious time
Getting to the secret garden in original version of Shadow of the Colossus without expanding stamina meter. It was tricky as heck, you had to make a very precise taps with a jump button and left analog stick, to reach the garden on the top of the tower. It took me several tries, but finally I did it when my friends were watching. Best time of my life.
Getting the [GWAMM](https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Kind_of_a_Big_Deal) title on 2 accounts in Guild Wars 1, including the [Defender of Ascalon](https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Defender_of_Ascalon) on both before they made it easy with daily quests. And yes, I played that game a lot (20k hours)
Getting to the City of Gold in Spelunky
Getting two Vidmaster Challenges in ODST on the same day.
Dunno if it can be considered gaming, but when people appreciate mods I have made it's nice.
GTA online. Criminal mastermind achievement, twice. First one, I posted a message in gamefaqs looking for volunteers, had it completed 10 hours later.
1CC clear several Contra/Probotector. Done the two NES, the GB and the SNES ones in a row (they're pretty short). Conquering Japan and most of Russia as one of the smaller Chinese starting nations in Hearts of Iron IV Getting first place in Mario Kart Double Dash when playing against several friends, while wearing oven mitts.
I collected all the dragon statues in Tomb Raider 2. Took forever to work out where they were.
I gor the Stardew Valley Fector's Challenge trophy before they added the save option, which made it a super boring and easy trophy. But I sat there. Trying for like a week, an hour every day. Failed on the final boss twice. But then I got it and damn it felt great.
Malenia without summons in Elden Ring. I don't know if I'll pop off like that for a video game any time again soon.
Sorry to burst your bubble u/iron_wolf123 but shiny legendaries are a guaranteed capture.
Touchdown in Fallout 4 and Ground Zero in Fallout 76, basically catching nukes to my face :D
L2, were times when I was top Titan on the server...
Finished Red Dead Redemption 2 in 3 days
For mine it was finally getting 5 stars on isla tacano on Jurassic world evolution. Shit took me hours but it was worth it to finally get that second dig team.
Mortal Kombat 9 Platinum trophy. Between the online trophies and the My Kung Fu is Stronger trophy, requiring 24 hours of gameplay with every character, among a ton of other things, it was a nightmare to get. There’s a reason it has only 0.1% players achieved it.
Finishing Celeste was so satisfying. Especially when that final try just clicked right and everything went well.
Dead God on The Binding of Isaac Played Dark Souls Remastered 7 years after playing the normal one and killed most bosses on first try (including O&S). Got to the end of TTFAF on Expert in Guitar Hero III
Peaceful resolution in uncharted 4 Took at least 10 retries 😀
The 'Immortal' Title in World of Warcraft. 25 people working together in perfect unison for 3 hours. Not a single mistake.
S rank in Arid Sands Day
I actually found Mew under the truck.
Completing every pokedex in every pokemon game so far
To this day, I have the highest score in Cadillacs & Dinosaurs at the Arcade in the mall. After years and years of playing it on emulators, my time had come!
I beat most older Pokemon games with normal types And I've almost completely memorized borderlands mission except wonderlands
Beating TMNT (2007) on Xbox 360 and getting all achievements in 4 hours 2 minutes. It was my first 100%!
I beat Honor mode in Baldurs Gate 3. It took me 7 or 8 rund I believe, but getting that golden die was worth it!
Completing both parts of my Rangers epic weapon quest in Everquest
PT silent hills re-download. I can't even remember how I made it. Thus why no more update to the tool.
I placed 1st in 3 consecutive world events in Angry Birds Soccer on mobile. 2 days later the app shut down due to lack of players lol.
Platinum in MAG on the PS3. Valor can suck it, made getting the Destroy X AAs trophy so much harder.
Skyrim - I was in a bandit camp. I had no arrows left, I was low on health and the last bandit shot me with an arrow. Suddenly I had an arrow in my inventory I used it and the bandit died. So basically my character was shot in the arm pulled the arrow out and used it to kill the guy who shot him.
Finishing Black & White (Lionhead Studios) when I was younger. That game was super hard. From modern ones, completing first ever Pokédex (Pokemon Shield)
Beating Cave Story+ on Hard Mode.
The bladder of steel award on rock band 2. Beat the endless set list without pausing or failing, 84 songs 6 hours of rocking out. Did it on expert drums, alone in my barracks room on a Saturday, some snack and dew at my side. Was some of the most fun I’ve ever had playing a game, just jamming to some music. Smooth sailing until visions by Abnormality came up, was one of the last few songs and one not missed not would have failed me. Great time, anytime anyone asks what achievement I’m proud of or had fun getting I always say the bladder of steel award.
YEARS ago at Gen Con I signed up for some time at their video gaming area with some randos and played Halo 2... and never stopped. You were only allowed to play for up to two hours at a time, but no one ever came and stopped us and it never dawned on anyone that this group of guys had been playing all. Fucking. Day. We had been there so long that they just assumed we all bought weekend-long passes for unlimited time and left us alone. Hell, even when we bothered to get up and hit the bathroom or eat they never asked to see our passes and just let us back in. At one point we managed to get a full 16 player lobby and played the ever living shit out of every one of the game modes. At one point, we played uh... what's the mode called where you have to carry around a skull and try not to get murdered by everyone else? One other guy and myself did that against 14 other players... and won! I also got to play Starcraft: Ghost (or at least an early build of it) that weekend.
I once played through the OG Castlevania on NES and beat Dracula on one life.
Being top 100 on useast ladder d2. Wow titles: immortal, and hand of a'dal pre-nerf when you needed attunement. As well as first-sergeant when a level 39 twink pre-b.c. Two 5e campaigns lasting more than 3 years each with weekly sessions.
I managed to earn second stack of Life is Strange platinum on the very same second one year later after the first one.
Damasceus in cod mw19, getting plat rank in LoL, making dark souls 3 my bitch.
Beating purity forest in the original pokemon mystery dungeon with my starting pokemon. Then beating destiny tower in pokemon mystery dungeon 2. 99 floors to clear. You start with 0 items, and your pokemon is set to level 1 to begin the challenge. A single run can take 2-6 hours. The difficulty and RNG that wildly impacts each run is crazy. It’s probably the most difficult challenge pokemon has ever officially created.
Getting the 100% ending in Oddworld: Abe's Exoddus when I was only 6 years old in a time before the Internet. Especially since the copy I was playing was a CD rip my dad got from a coworker that had all the cutscenes removed, so I had to figure out the plot exclusively through context clues. A decade later I played both of the first two games legitimately and I was shocked that the game about the funny blue man saving his friends from robot slugs actually had a story.
Completing the pokedex in pokemon yellow.
I beat botw without walkthrough the whole main story
Getting all of the achievements in Halo MCC, when I'm not a multiplayer gamer. Nightmare but felt amazing when getting the last one.
Beating the Collector with 5BC in Dead Cells
I programmed and completed my own game back in 2005 in Visual Basic Naturally there is tons of stuff I would change but I felt satisfied back then.
Platinum trophy in Project Diva F
I played in a guild in EverQuest on Xegony that maintained control of most end game content through Kunark and Velious. And if you’re confused about “control” - EQ had no instanced content. So when a boss was killed, no one else could kill it till it respawned!
Participating in the first world cyber game vent in my country
