I was in the Top 20 leaderboards in Fight Night Champion at one point. Then people figured out how to hack scores and I was bumped off.
Completing the Path of Pain in Hollow Knight, and beating the true final boss of Enter the Gungeon both come to mind.
NB: this was before
Before what?
Before Markus starting saying racist shit, or Q-anon shit, or anti-trans shit.
That sucks. I did not know about that.
Convinced my friend that the Jesus bus in GTA 1 could drive on water.
Nice. I once got a buddy in WoW to check out the Blood of Heroes in Eastern Plague Lands.
Successfully dodged WoW back in the days, got a degree instead. The only winning move is not to play.
6 solo wins in a row on Fortnite. Decided thst i couldn’t stop playing until I lost after the second win.
Got stuck in a glitch Fortnite game with NO STORM. Took over an hour to find everyone and get the win. Had to just fly around in a helicopter until the last dude shot at me.
I think, probably…spending many hours over a few weeks helping people experience and love Journey after I got my White Robe. Twirling around on the sand dunes, exploring strange places, avoiding danger, and finally seeing them pass through that mountain.
For me every time someone stuck it out added to the memories and I hope each of them remembers that chirpy white robed player who made the game just a little more fun.
There’s 3 that come to mind. I’ve beat Dark Souls 3 and all it’s DLC at level 1. I’ve beat Pantheon 5 in the Godhome DLC for Hollow Knight. And I’ve beaten all ascension levels for all characters in Slay the Spire.
I’ve beat Pantheon 5 in the Godhome DLC for Hollow Knight.
That’s really impressive. I can’t even beat Pantheon 3. That fucking Zote just keeps fucking me up. Even when I do beat him, I usually get too anxious, make many stupid mistakes, and die to Hornet. I can’t even practice on Sly yet.
I can’t wait for Silksong. That will fill my day when it comes out.
Thanks. Keep at it! The P5 grind was one of the most fun gaming challanges I have done. There’s also only one boss that I have not beaten on Radiant difficulty (Markoth is pure cancer).
I’ve long given up hope on Silksong. It won’t ever come out. My personal theory is that one of Team Cherry had a major life event and production will never resume.
I don’t want to get your hopes up. I didn’t find out about Hollow Knight untill after all the dlc came out. I haven’t been waiting that long, just a couple years, so I’m probably not as jaded as the rest of the community.
It looks like that it will come out by the end of the year. I forgot what I read exactly, but some paperwork getting processed. Of course I will gladly put on my clown make-up when December comes and goes with no word from Team Cherry. 🤡
I beat Factorio without using belts.
…
No, I’m not a masochist, why do you ask?
Relatively new to the game, have launched two rockets. That seems… very tedious.
I’m guessing you rushed robots and then did it end game that way?
I was jazzed to not use lasers and only steam power on my second play through.
Basically, also trains, so many trains.
So train lines instead of belts, and inserters directly linking assemblers to each other? Wow, that base must be huge.
I have done some basics with trains, and a bit with circuits, but multi resource trains always jammed up on me and became unbalanced so I’ve basically kept them to single item type each. Plus, playing on console without keyboard means naming things like stations is a slow pain in the ass.
After seeing my husband play for hours, I didn’t even know it was possible to play without belts!
It’s not supposed to be played without belts, I’ll tell you that much.
Making myself known on the Dreamcastic Channel on YouTube by playing Phantasy Star Online Ver. 2 with none other than Pcwzrd.
He was either ‘Teal’c’ or ‘Afro Thunder’ on there.
This was before I started over when I got another working copy of PSO after the other one broke.
I beat Mario Lost Levels once. On the SNES with saves, but I beat it.
I managed a cyber cafe many years ago. Mostly filled with regulars that I knew on a first name basis and would usually sit in for a CS match if it was slow.
I wouldn’t call myself great but I could take down middle schoolers. That’s not what this post is about though.
A girl walks in, has some sweats on from the big university that’s not too close but still in the area.
She wipes all those kids out repeatedly. They start yelling, asking me to help them out so I do. I’m effectively going 50% with this person.
Before she leaves she reveals that’s she’s visiting her parents for the weekend and that she was on a team that was ranked or otherwise played professionally.
I asked her if I was good enough to play competitively.
She said no, she hadn’t played at all for a few months because of school and she was going easy.
Felt pretty proud that I was able to keep up with an out-of-shape pro.
Staged a coup in my Archage guild, we managed to get away with basically all of the guild assets.
Joined guild, made friends with one of the officers and his small in-group of pvpers. Was a reliable asset and helped us get a couple of merchant ships and a galleon, plus had farms just full of high value trade packs.
Problem was the GM and I didn’t get along very well. She wanted to dictate how we named the ships in a way that I felt was cringe as hell and generally wasn’t open to input or criticism at all. One day I logged in at like 2 or 3 am when no one else in the guild was online and I just left the guild. Next day I logged in and sent messages to the people I’d made friends with and told them the GM kicked me, since it was well known she didn’t like me.
Stoked the flames for an hour or so and convinced most of the in-group to quit after we took all the assets we could. Drew a giant dick with barley plants on the front lawn of the GM’s player house and then they all g-quit.
She raged for months, shouting in global chat that we were a bunch of pirates anytime she saw us, and tried to gank us multiple times, poorly. It was glorious, but I never told any of them what really happened.
We also invented boatnado. The bouancy physics had a fun glitch where you could make a merchant ship spin on its end at an ever increasing rate and the mast would just fire any ships that got too close off into the horizon. Never fully managed to weaponize this discovery, but we had a ton of fun with it.
Going the whole distance in QWOP
Getting all Dark Souls 1 achievements.
That Knights Honor one was pretty tough
Yes, getting Channeler’s Trident was a real pain.
