Rare accomplishments you've achieved

Thrasher · February 05, 2018, 11:53:14 PM

Have you done anything in game that's considered rare? For example, getting a perfect in Street Fighter/Smash, no death in Dark Souls, SLASO in Halo, etc.

Verbatim · February 05, 2018, 11:57:38 PM

Got the Diskun trophy in Melee, which basically requires you to do and unlock every stupid little thing in the game you could imagine.

100%ed Majora's Mask without using guides, found all 120 shrines in BotW without using guides.

Had the patience to beat Zelda II on two separate occasions.

That's actually impressive. Have you tried to get all the Korok seeds?

Plenty of THPS things (specifically THUG-THAW), spent way too many years becoming one of the top players. Got a high combo in American Wasteland (without cheats or glitches) that was over the score limit of 2,147,483,647. I've also managed to learn just about every one of the insanely hard glitches/techniques in the games (kind of like double shot or BXR in Halo 2) and can do most of them while comboing. Some are practically like doing a Mortal Kombat fatality mid combo to pull them off correctly.

i did laso for halo ce as well as legendary under 3 hours

getting all the emblems in sonic adventure 1 & 2 was a pain in the ass

100% kirby super star ultra was also pretty diffiicult

getting a complete pokedex in pokemon y was incredible considering there was like 700 pokemon at the time

getting all the achievements in cuphead was pretty hard but i dont think it's that rare

i remember when i was a kid (was about 7 y/o) i begged my mom to buy me a guide because i couldnt figure out how to defeat skull kid. she never bought one so i was never able to complete majoras mask for years

it wasnt til i was a teenager where i learned i just had to play oath to order to "defeat" him

Jono · February 06, 2018, 12:45:04 AM

There were these things in R&C: Going Commando called Nanotech Boosters that would automatically increase your health by 1. One of these boosters was in a near-impossible location to reach and I managed to get it after dozens and dozens of tries. I've also broke the bolt counter in this game. If I remember right, it capped at 999,999,999.

I was in the top 100 in the PS4 leaderboards for Kill Confirmed in MWR when that was a thing.

I 100-percented GTA San Andreas on my
PS2 before my file got corrupted. Took me like 5 years to do that.

Boomdeyadah · February 06, 2018, 02:01:53 AM

halo 2 legendary sub 3 hours.

Regret can go to hell. Worst experience of my life.

Zonda · February 06, 2018, 03:17:31 AM

Completing Mauvais Garçon on Expert in guitar hero 3

Apparently the legend achievement in mcc is pretty uncommon but it doesn’t really make me that proud tbh

MarKhan · February 06, 2018, 03:47:17 AM

Beat Battletoads and Final Mission without dying.

Don`t really remember anything else worth mentioning.

Mega Sceptile · February 07, 2018, 11:09:02 PM

halo 1-3 Solo LASO
Ghosts and Goblins beaten without save states
Beat everyone in my school back in College who played Melee
100% in Kirby Super Star
all 386 in Pokemon Emerald via trading and shit
Completed the dex in Pokemon Pinball R&S
High score in one of the pinball machines back when arcades were still a thing in my area
Beat all songs in GH3 on Expert once, probably never able to do it again
got the Excalibur II in FFIX

Elai · February 07, 2018, 11:22:06 PM

IDK about rare but I've 100%'d both Jak 2 and 3 on two occassions. All 286 orbs in Jak 2 and all 600 orbs in Jak 3.

HappyMax · February 08, 2018, 12:05:28 AM

I have a few of the really oddly specific achievements from Master Chief Collection... I just realized that I suck at video games.

Dietrich Six · February 08, 2018, 03:33:53 AM

Made it to the farm in destiny 2

FatherlyNick - fuck putin · February 08, 2018, 04:36:01 AM

This thread made me realise I did nothing noteworthy in games.

Big Boss · February 08, 2018, 05:01:14 AM

I think I briefly made it into the top times on Bowser's Castle on Mariokart Wii.

Plus, I beat an expert Nintendo ghost. I was fucking proud of that because those were hard to beat...

Super Irish · February 08, 2018, 06:46:21 AM

Veteran'd World at War, and got to the top 45k in TDM leaderboards (back when 2/3 of the ones above were hacked)

I played against James Chen on SFV online once, while he was streaming.

Not really much of an "accomplishment," especially when I lost the match 1-2, but I still rewatch this every now and then and laugh. If you don't know him, you probably don't have to worry about it, but he's probably the most well-known Street Fighter commentator in the scene.

He was never much of a player, but he's still a highly respected figure in the community and is overall a pretty cool guy. I was excited to play against him.

One of the coolest things about SFV is having these opportunities to play against top players, since they all play and practice online. Being cross-platform helps, too.

Nah, maybe some day. Once I realized you don't even need to collect all of them to fully upgrade your item slots, I was like "miss me." I was satisfied having collected over half of them.

At least there's a DLC mask that makes them easier to find now.

I once got like 2 million points in Tetris which made Verbatim jealous

Yes they do

It took 5 years

I will not be undermined

Big Boss · February 08, 2018, 02:04:11 PM

I just got my first SSS rank combo in DMC4

That's rare because I suck at it

Desty · February 08, 2018, 02:49:51 PM

Oh yeah, I forgot about Halo 3.

I think I'm the only one who figured out that you're supposed to use a grav lift in the base mission and fly past all the brutes to the chieftan, hit him in the back before he turns on invincibility, take the invincibility then immediately turn it on and start killing the brutes. Not that necessary on normal difficulties, but on Legendary a room full of brutes ain't fun.

Alpha007 · February 08, 2018, 03:05:14 PM

My lone rare achievement I have is something me and a couple of friends got. It's Nagato Makes Moving Easy.
ODST was our shit.
For anyone wanting this achievement, don't ask for advice. We somehow got it after doing Kizingo Boulevard on foot.
We have no clue either.

Luciana · February 08, 2018, 06:05:35 PM

not dying in Escape From Tarkov
