    What about the inverse?

    I got Satisfactory before the 1.0 release. I played most of the game before achievements were added. Now the achievement for “reaching the credits” is achieved but “finish the tutorial” is still waiting to be done.

      Wow that’s hard to figure out, I went looking for games I had the most achievement completion and tried to find which one had achievements most people had that I didn’t:

      • I never scored 6 goals in one game in Rocket League (60,5% of players did)
      • I never stabilized Gale’s Orb in Baldur’s Gate 3 (44.8% of players did)
      • I never became the champion of Fort Joy Arena in Divinity Original Sin 2 (42.2% of players did)
      • I never saved the Printer in Dishonored 2 (31.2% of players did)

        To be honest, I haven’t actually played 2 yet. But the first game holds a special place in my heart.

        The online consensus seems to be that the sequel has stronger gameplay and maybe even visuals too (the psychedelics in both games are a real trip), but the original has a far stronger story. Again, I haven’t played the sequel, but I suspect you’ll be better served by starting with the first one.

        A lot of people draw a parallel to Undertale, and while they’re quite different games mechanically I admit they have a lot in common between their themes, characterizations, and the style of the overworld. Music in both games slap too.

        Like Undertale, the game does give you an option to do a Pacifist run. Where Everhood turns things on its head is that the Pacifist run is an extremely crushing story - without getting into spoiler territory, let me just say I see a lot of myself in the Forest Spirit’s philosophy. It’s left a permanent mark on me.

        By the way, that achievement is an absolute bitch and it’s not even the hardest one. To put it in context, I held the number one spot on the leaderboard when I earned it - although they reset the leaderboards quite often, so you too have a chance to shine.

          Thank you so much for the elaborate review. I’ll see when my backlog allows for a new game, but I’ll happily keep it on my radar for whenever the mood strikes me

    Not as low as some other percentages in this thread but I was very proud to beat the last pantheon in Hollow Knight. You have to beat every boss in the game in a row without dying

      If you’ve unlocked the “rare achievements showcase” on your profile, presumably using the desktop app, then it appears on your profile on the mobile app, too.

      Behold! Not even getting all that far in They Bleed Pixels is my finest achievement, with only 1.1% of other players managing the same. What you need to do is focus on games that are old and unreasonably bastard hard, and rare medals can be yours.

        I thought that and I looked at my showcase and they were all Modern Warfare (the first of the new reboots) campaign achievments around 0.3℅ and it made me embarrassed to post mine.

        Seems you just need a major blockbuster where most people only play the multiplayer, which has also mashed all of its sequels into the same launcher and therefore included people who don’t even own said game in the “players who did not achieve this” percentage…

        I believe the games which are openeded and only have whatever goals you set yourself, such as Paradox Map games or Cities Skylines are contenders for rarest achievements as well.

        Especially when they have updates and new achievements added as time passes.

        For Crusader Kings three as an example, most people can probably found the Dai Viet Empire - But only 0.3% of players has the achievement

        Supposedly you just get it randomly, or posts on the web say you can modify an config file then use a console command to get it.

            while it’s appropriate for the meta commentary of the game, it made sure I’ll never play one of his games again D:

            No offense, but that’s just a very dumb reason to miss out on games that you’d otherwise enjoy.

            You do realize they’re not like a part of the actual game right? Nobody is making you do this.

              I wasn’t that much of a fan of Stanley Parable anyway, that sort of humour is not really my jam 🤷

              You do realize they’re not like a part of the actual game right?

              For that game they are definitely part of its poking fun of videogames and gamers, it has other achis like not playing for 5 years, or playing for the entire duration of a Tuesday.

              Nobody is making you do this.

              Agreed, nobody is forcing me to play his other games either :) I just don’t like trolls, whether game developers or not 🤷 I’m one of those people who doesn’t separate the art from its artist.

                I also got bored of the Stanley Parable, it reeks of a period on the internet that I’d like to be dead history. Granted, if this was babbies first meta-commentary then I understand why it seems so profound to so many people.

                My view on this game is that it, much like Chronotrigger, is very bland. It introduced young people to a concept they weren’t familiar with, like time travel or meta-commentary.

                If it’s for you, it’s for you. I’ll reserve what I think about people who (for some reason) could not conceptualize what time travel was before Chronotrigger, I will treat the SP the same way.

      I just went back with the last big update and got all of the achievements I didn’t have. I had 100%ed it at least once before, but didn’t have any of the newer ones.

    Out of the Red 0.2%

    Shadows of Doubt. These achievements are not rare because they are difficult, but because they are tedious. Most of the ones listed here are just repeatedly eating a food item, which costs almost nothing (1200 credits for solving a typical case, 700 for an easy case; 12 credits to buy a Croque Monsieur, the most expensive food in the game.)

    Rat Catcher: Solve a murder while your PoV is at the ground, but you can crawl up walls, and also nobody will talk to you. This achievement is rare mostly because this game mode was added a few years after this game peaked in popularity.

    Spare No One: KO everyone in town, in a game where you are discouraged from using violence. Finding a katana and knocking out everyone you see on the street is easy enough. The real challenge here is keeping track of everyone. Some NPCs glitch out and get stuck in their houses, never go outside, and never come to work. You’ll have to identify them, find out where they live, and hunt them down. Some NPCs have accented characters in their names, making them difficult to search for on the computers in game, which do not allow you to type such characters.

    If you make a case board to keep track of everyone, the case board takes exponentially increasing time to open for each person you pin onto it. By the end, it was taking me about 5 seconds each time I opened it. That was in a custom procedurally generated town of the smallest possible size – it would be worse on any of the stock towns.

    Out of the Red: pay off 10,000 to a loan shark in 1,000 credit increments, one payment per day. Raising 10,000 can be done in half a day easily. Paying it off takes for ever. You can’t make payments early. Each one-day wait takes a few minutes, since the game has to simulate every NPC in town. And remember to turn off the procedurally generated murders, because otherwise your loan shark might get killed, and you can’t make payments any more (it happened to me, and I had to load a save.)

      I’ve spent a fair bit of time living in Shadows of Doubt. I can corroborate for those who don’t that you are indeed a mad bastard. I’m interested in the IRL circumstances.
