GTA: Vice City. One night, during a group play session at my friend Wayne's house, someone idly wondered if you flew a helicopter into a Pan and Spray would you actually trigger a repaint. With cries of "For Science!" we each took turns to attempt this tricky feat. We chose the one on the western island facing the water, so we would have a good fly-up with minimal interference. 45 minutes later, after many comedic failures, I squeezed the ungainly whirlybird into the garage, landed it, and sure enough the door closed and reopened with a newly painted helo. The fact that I blew it up trying to take off indoors did nothing to diminish my sense of accomplishment.

I remember a long time ago before achievements were even a thing, my brother and I spent hours and hours trying to beat the original Splinter Cell without alerting anyone to anything. If the guard went "What was that?" It was concidered a mission failure and we had to reload. We nearly made it all the way through the entire game, until the very last level. There was a guard guarding stairs or a hallway or something, and we just couldn't figure out how to get around him. We must have spent several hours watching and creeping, and starting over and over and over again. Finally we just bit the bullet and tossed a can to the other side of room followed by the inevitable "Who's there?". We managed to finish the rest of the game according to our rules, but the one guard still bugs me to this day.

[@ObeyCamp]

[@DarklordKaiser]

Not sure how much you'd class it as an 'achievement' exactly, but I used to play the Ezio based Assassin's Creed games in a style I like to call "Giving The Families Closure". The idea was that the random town guards you frequently had to kill usually hadn't actually done anything to warrant you murder-killing them. They were basically just guys doing their jobs, making a living pretty much the only way they knew how. The worst they'd do was sound an alarm or attack me on account of all those people I done murder-killed. Younger me decided that it was perfectly justifiable to murder-kill as many of them as I wanted (I was an assassin after all), but disposing of the bodies was a step too far. Hiding bodies was fine, as long as it was in places that one could reasonably expect them to be eventually found (in a haystack for example), but if a body was destroyed or placed somewhere it might never be found then the family of said murder-killed guard would never know for sure if they'd been killed on the job, or if they'd abandoned them, or if they'd comitted suicide or whatever. The guard may have gotten between me and my objective, but I had no quarrel with their family. Plus I figured that there might be some kind of payout for families of guards killed on the job (I probably just murder-killed their sole breadwinner after all). For the most part, this just meant not throwing bodies into wells or rivers, but I also decided that leaving bodies on rooftops was taboo as well (how often do people find themselves of roofs after all??), so whenever I killed a guard on top of a building I'd always carry the body to the nearest populated street and hurl the body into the crowd. For their families sake.

[@57thorns]

Sounder so nice until the "hurl the body into the crowd" part. I am sure someone would notice a dead body on a roof, with all the carrion birds and/or a hapless chimney sweep might find them.

[@DarklordKaiser]

@@57thorns I think my reasoning at the time was it would be easier on their families to say their goodbyes if the body had undergone as little decomposition as possible. So I made sure the body was discovered quickly. Discoveries don't come much quicker than having them thrown at one of those sodding musicians.

Fun fact about Blood Stone: I was a tester on that game and there's an achievement in the opening levels where you chase the bad guy around Greece (Athens specifically) and can sink a bunk of ships during the process. Originally, that achievement was called "Grecian Economy." Which was a banger of a dark joke, since we were working on the game in 2009 and the Grecian Economy basically went into super debt and collapsed in 2008, and what you were doing in the level was basically leaving Greece like the Greeks had left their economy - Trashed beyond all repair. Ha ha ha. However, it was also a really MEAN joke, so we had to have some discussions about how to read the room and not be too cruel to the Greeks and open everyone involved in development and production of the game into a PR nightmare and potential lawsuits from the much more strict EU (at least when it comes to libel) because someone wanted to get a bit too cheeky with the banter.

[@kellymajere7792]

I was also the WoW fisherman. And when they added guild achievements, one of them was to fish an insane amount of fish (meant to be done by everyone in the guild). I'm pretty sure I did most of it by myself. And when it was almost complete, I actually waited until some other guild members were online, so they could see the achievement being completed as well. It was funny because they were wondering who the heck was actually fishing.

[@neonclear8500]

I had an entire play through of Skyrim where I didn't loot ANYTHING from the containers in dungeons. I did however leave stuff in them. Because how does that gold wind up in all those chests in a random cave in a typical RPG? The way that it wound up inside them was ME. I was responsible for it. Some random, eccentric rich guy was responsible for ALL of it. I did the math and I forget the exact amount, but I deposited close to a hundred thousand gold in coin, gems, and random high value pieces of armor in various dungeons across the province of Skyrim

When I was playing Vanilla WoW, I really wanted a Nightsaber mount for my Human main. Buying the faction mounts for a different race required the Exalted reputation, which, with your own faction, was tough enough by level 40, but as a human, you started at Neutral with the Night Elves rather than Friendly like the rest of the Alliance, which was an extra huge undertaking of reputation gaining (like 10k or something just to get to friendly and quests would give 5 rep iirc). I think running my level 3 character to Stormwind to jump a boat, and then hightailing it to the NE starting zone was the most harrowing and strangely rewarding part, but that was a LOT of time spent in Stonetalon and Desolace. I was garbage at PvP, which was the fastest way to build rep, so it was just questing and killing loads of demons and centaurs. Worth it? I don't know, but every now and then riding on it rather than the free warhorse Pallys get just made me smile.

Jane, I can completely relate to you. When I was first leveling my first toon, hunter, in WoW, I spent ages skinning. I was determined to get the gold to purchase riding and mounts at the levels they unlock at (30 and 60). To raise the gold I used my skinning skill to farm all the low skins and sell them on AH or, if they didn’t sell, I vendored them. Yes I leveled up sooo many times farming skinning (the least profitable until max level), that I went from 30-37 and 55-60 just from hunting mobs and skinning them. No questing, nothing besides killing and skinning mobs.

My personal achievement in any MMO with a player based economy... "Be the 1%" To figure out a scheme and earn enough gold by the time I reach max level that I out wealth most players in the game/guild. To complete the achievement, I do have to poll sample size of players to find out how much "gold/credits/dollars" they have before I am please I succeeded. Bonus Achievement points if I can buy something insanely rich in front of someone. (Succeeded in WoW, APB, Everquest, City of Heroes, Star Trek Online) I lose the achievement, if I get banned from the game during the process. (I failed in Guild Wars, Ultima Online, Dungeons and Dragons Online, LOTRO) Best was in World of Warcraft... by the time I hit L40 in Original Classic, I had enough gold to buy every mount in game (13000 gold), the average guildies had 100-250g and no one on the server had an epic mount yet. (Wasn't first to get an epic mount though, I was leveling too slow cause I spent too much time on Auction House). Did have a long conversation with a Game Master cause my auction house trading was getting reported, alot! So I did have to curb it back... by creating more AH Alts to diffuse the blame :P Worst was Guild Wars... they banned me for having too much gold, unbanned me so they could spy on me to find out how I earned it, but I didn't fall for it, so they banned me again. Got myself unbanned, they took all my gold and gear, and then promised to return "an average amount - which was tiny" and pardon me for my previous behaviour if I told them what I did. Told them what I did... they patched it out... then they banned me later for something else :P

My cousin and me were playing Halo 3 and we had another run through Crow's Nest, when my Cousin decided to kick Grunt corpse down a ledge and said, as the corpse fell towards our target "Nobody will be left behind when the great Journey begins." Something the Prophets keep saying continously, but that small sentence ended with us, dragging every friggin corpse on the whole map into the Elevator at the end of the level, while muttering cultish rubbish like, "Come, the great journey awaits" or "noone left behing." or "The great journey begins now" Just imagine the Marines watching in Terror, as we punched every covenant soldier we just killed through the level.

I think my favorite achievement was in Fallout 2, when I removed my wife's brain. It was not easy. You can acquire this wife via a shotgun wedding. She will then join your party, kind of. She will follow you, but never fights or carries anything. She will go where you tell her to, until you get something like 5 hexes away, and then she will sprint back to your side. She was marginally better than the Pariah Dog. Eventually, you can find a military complex where they make robo-brains that you might have seen in later Fallouts as well. I saw the opportunity for a "Wasteland Divorce" as nobody calls it. The tricky part was: I had to get her into a room, and activate the removal process from outside. So I had to get her as far into the room as possible, run out as fast as I could with enough time to turn and use lock picking on the door (because back in those days it could be used for both unlocking AND locking). It was not a simple task, but then, there I had it, my wife's brain, ready to be put into a terrible murder bot. Hmm. I wonder if she would bear a grudge? Maaaaybe I'll just hang on to this.

[@infernaldisdain8051]

Just read up on the Fallout 2 Wiki, yeah, that's actually one of the legit ways of getting rid of her along with killing her outright, selling her into slavery, or just getting a divorce.

Jacob was one of my first ACNH villagers and as a Lazy, he said it was the "best thing since he learned about pasghetti". So my housewarming gift to him was a pot customized to look like it had pasta in it. And when he displayed it on his table, it felt so sweet. I like to give back to NPCs I love, and games don't always make it possible, so i find work arounds.

Quest for Glory V: Dragon Fire.: Using the spell "Thermonuclear Blast" to take out the final boss. Normally this is a joke spell. You use it, you destroy the world. Even if you use the spell normally in the final fight, you also kill your party. However, something about the message you get when you do this made me think it could go differently. And it can. If you time everything perfectly, you can weaken the dragon with the pillars, AND tell each party member what your plan is and whichever love interest you rescued from Hades will teleport everyone but yu away from the battle, THEN you can cast the spell and only take out yourself and the dragon. I still have a screencap from pulling this off. There's no reason to do this. None at all, but I'm still glad I pulled off the timing. The death message: "The Dragon of Doom would destroy your new home, And Kill all the people who called you a friend. So you Blasted the Dragon at the cost of your life, With all Valor, you faced your vvictorious end. In Honerable Death, there is gread Glory"

There was this light squad tactics game on the Wii called "Battalion Wars 2", which is tangentially related to the "Advanced Wars" series. In it you commanded a small squad of infantry, armored vehicles, planes, and ships, all of which have their own strengths and weaknesses and could only attack certain other units. Pretty standard RTS stuff, however the game's main gimmick was that you took direct control of one of your units at all times and could switch control to any of your units on the fly, turning the game into a hybrid RTS and 3rd person shooter/arcade flight sim/world of tanks/world of warships thing. Usually, this meant that the player would take direct command of whatever unit was the most combat effective for the current skirmish to protect their more vulnerable units, since player controlled units took less damage, dealt more damage, and your AI controlled teammates were bleh. What I did, instead, was something I liked to call "Rambo mode". Any time a level spawned the "machinegun veteran" unit (one of the only units that could effectively attack infantry, vehicles, sea , and air targets, though he wasn't the best at any of those roles) I would take control of the machinegun veteran, command the rest of my army to wait at the starting area, and proceeded to try and beat the entire level on my own just to show them how a real man does it. And also because I had way too much free time as a 12 year old boy.

Jane! The feels! Ok, storytime, growing up when the WoW achievements came out there was a meta-achievement for fishing requiring all of the hardest achievements of the fishing professions. The hardest of all being to win the Stranglethorn Fishing Extravaganza. A once a week, on a Sunday lunchtime, server-wide event to catch rare fish the fastest and hand them in. Not first to catch, but first to race across the area and get to the NPC at the top of the zone and hand them in. I got all the other achievements, but problem. I grew up in a very religious family, so had to go to church around the same time as the event. For 2 years, I missed the event, occasionally rushing home and finding that it had just finished. Then one day, it happened. We were all ill. This was it. My one chance to get the competition and the meta-achievement!! I braced, knees weak, palms sweaty, vomit held in by lack of spaghetti. I raced to the area, caught fish, nearly with the required amount, when the server-wide announcement “Another player has caught all the fish!” I was heartbroken, but then I caught the last fish and raced across the area. I saw the other player. THE FOOL had autorun on and was caught on a texture. I sprinted past him, made it to the NPC. My name went up in the /1 chat. Achievements popped one after the other and my God I have never felt more alive!!! That was 14 years ago and in truth, I know I never will. I peaked and it’s all downhill from here.

A good friend had helped me finish some of the trickier sections of Ocarina of Time, he knew the game inside out and back to front. So when he told me that if you played the whole game through with a) just the three starting hearts and b) without dying once then something cool would happen....well, I believed him. I started a new game and I spent weeks carefully proceeding through the game without picking up any extra heart containers and without getting killed by any bosses. I was so determined. And I did it, I smooshed Gannondorf good. Of course nothing happened and there was no reward. But it was still immensely satisfying.

[@cdkx655]

I replayed the Starcraft 1 campaign pretty frequently, and my favorite self-imposed challenge was to finish the human campaign producing only marines for units. If a level started with non-marine units, I could use them, but once they died that was it. It's a lot of fun and actually pretty challenging in later levels. In particular, the last level requires that you destroy an ion cannon that is on its own island with a ton of missile turrets and other units. Basically you have to take over the rest of the map using marines, the AI will slowly move the units off the island to reinforce the rest of the map. Then you have to make a ton of barracks and float them to the island, taking missile shots the whole way. whichever ones dont get shot down start producing marines and you win. It's really a fun way to play.

In Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force (FPS with you as nameless security officer), I made it my mission to murder every named character on the show. Thing is, you can only get them if they appear in a part of the game where there's hostiles around. When you're wandering around the ship you have no weapons. The hardest one was Janeway, cause she never goes on missions. To get her, there's a part where she gives a mission briefing, then you go to the armoury for equipment, then to the transporter room for deployment. If you're fast enough, you can grab a phaser, run back and blast her before she gets to the turbolift. The best part of this is when you kill a friendly, you get a cut scene with a member of the crew berating you in the brig. And each time you do it, it gets to be someone less important.

You know how when you complete Metal Gear Solid AND watch to the end of the credits without skipping them, you get either the infinite ammo bandana or the stealth suit, depending on which ending you choose? And then you can replay the game with this new gear? Well it turns out that if you complete the game a second time, and choose the other ending, then you can ALSO unlock the other item, and do a 3rd run of the game with both, now pretty OP and with a full knowledge of how to defeat every boss, solve every puzzle, where every guard goes, etc etc. BUT there's another item you can unlock. Complete the game 3 times, and on your 4th playthrough Snake's character skin is switched so that instead of his sneaking suit he's wearing a tuxedo like James Bond. The tuxedo confers no additional powers at all, it just looks cool. So yeah, I completed the game as the suavest version of Solid Snake, knowing every inch of the thing backwards & entirely untroubled by even the toughest battles. And the best part is that I didn't even own a PS1 - it was my mate's PS1 & I was only doing it because he dared me to complete MGS in the tux, not realising how much I was gonna really cut into his FFVII time in order to murder everyone in Shadow Moses 4 times over.

A little added challenge was not having the pack mule perky that enabled me to run while over encumbered and not having the aquaboy perk that gave me resistance against rads and water breathing.

Quite a bit more challenging, but ultimately doable. Then I just decided "Fudge it, no swords. Get to Ganon without a sword." And I did that one.

Dark Souls 2: This one is specifically for the third DLC, the Frozen Wastes area, where the boss is right at the front of the level, only invisible and you need an item to see him. Well I made up some rubbish about him mocking me as I left to take the other path, so I just kept trying without it. Eventually I beat him, I slashed him up something good, I gotten used to dodging him by his sounds and tracking his whereabouts by broken statues around the arena and stuff like that. I got the last laugh! Warframe: I have collected 900+ Vitality mods. They are a common drop, no-one needs 900, very few people even need one because you get a strictly better version later on anyway.

So after hours upon hours of training I went into this fight I had no idea if I could actually win... and won, it was an amazing feeling back then... And then Mithos shows up immediately after beating him and I get the same question in my head about him... As it turned out, I did get to the point that I could dodge his attacks and land hits on him consistently (1 damage point per hit mind you...) But then found out the hard way that no matter how well you do, once you hit a certain point it cuts off into the cutscene as if you had lost anyways. Oh and I did all of this playing as my favorite character Raine, the healer of the group, all bots for rest of my party, and without any real perks from new game +

Breath of the Wild: Defeat Ganon in Master Mode, without freeing the divine beasts (so you have to defeat the four ganon bosses first), without collecting any memories (No Champion's Tunic) and without collecting spirit orbs (No Master Sword, no additional hearts, no additional stamina). It took me a few tries, but I managed to do it in the end. Unfortunately, I have no nerd friends, so it's not a big deal to anyone but me. :(

Starrulet that’s epic! I tried it on normal with a few orbs and I couldn’t do it

In Runescape during the Old School days, I loved exploring. Same with any other MMO I played, it never matter how low level I was or how everything could kill me in one shot, I would always go exploring dangerous zones. In Runescape i explored the entire wildys at level 32 wearing nothing but a cape and holding a staff (Cause I thought I looked like a cool wanderer) everytime I saw someone on the map i'd bolt in the opposite direction

20 years ago : Status moves suck Now : If I increase my status battling their first pokemon, I could 1 hit kill his whole team with 1 move later.

For me, I tried to the opposite of a speedrun, a slow run! Basically, you have to complete the game as slow as possible, BUT! You also have to make progress in the game, either mandatory, or optional. Also, anything to speed you up is BANNED, while anything that slows you but doesn't stop you, is allowed.

Play the entirety of Borderlands 2 with Bane equipped. You cannot move while another gun is equipped (in the event you need to switch which gun you're using to survive).

[@IamaPERSON]

@@azuredragoon2054 I can't do that for borderlands 2 since I don't have it, but maybe I can do it for borderlands 3.

Tried playing Fallout 3 without fast travel. Boi let me tell you Girdershade is a hike.

Love this video! I have never done actual achievements as a thing before, and I'm nothing more than average at most games, but I really got a bug with the Yiga clan hideout in BOTW. I wasn't that far into the game, but I was DETERMINED to wipe them OUT. Anyone who has done that area knows that just fighting them is ridiculous unless you're a god mode player, which I am not. So I stealth killed. Ice sword, lightning sword, ice sword, lightning sword. It took me hours, since you get fully reset if they catch you. In the end, I did it... I killed them all. At the end of it, there was an eerie silence in the hideout. I went back there multiple times over the game... despite the fact the clan kept sending assassins after me, there was never anyone in the hideout again.

Whenever I play Fallout 3, I always make it a point to snipe Arkansas from as far away as possible, with a regular pistol, by just guessing where he is.
