Achievement Hunting |OT| Every point counts

yeah, Carto is a nice puzzle game and fast completion. I have to finish Knights & Bikes before it leaves Game Pass.

Thanathorn · October 22, 2021, 12:53pm

I’ll probably have the 1000G in AI: Somnium by the end of the day. Such a fantastic game. Very easy achievements.

Plagueborne · October 22, 2021, 1:15pm

So is Grand Theft Auto San Andreas Definitive Edition going to be the November game

Chyld989 · October 22, 2021, 1:51pm

Oh man, I hope not. Not only is that game massive, but it’s my least favorite of all of the 3D GTA games (I know I’m in the minority with that opinion). Plus I’ll be so deep into FH5 at that point that there’s no way I’m touching any of the GTA games until at least December.

With that said, I’ve skipped our monthly games before, and I’m willing to do it again if that’s what everyone else wants

Plagueborne · October 22, 2021, 1:55pm

Totally blanked on Horizon 5, it does come out earlier. Both long games for sure. Too many games and too little time.

Thanathorn · October 22, 2021, 9:57pm

AI: The Somnium Files 100%. I loved this game and its a very straight forward completion. Worth the time if you enjoy visual novel/point and click style games.

Mort · October 23, 2021, 12:09am

It’s certainly so far out of my comfort zone that you need a telescope to see it but I’m willing to give it a try. Putting it on my list.

How is Knights & Bikes?

Nov is Mexico time!!

Chyld989 · October 23, 2021, 3:02am

Ain’t that the truth. My backlog keeps getting bigger and that’s even with me generally prioritizing the smaller games so I can get through a few quicker rather than some of the 80-100+ hour ones that I actually want to be playing

Mort · October 24, 2021, 3:03am

Completion #76: Genesis Noir.

Now this was an experience… A very strange game indeed. I enjoyed the puzzles, it’s a favourite thing of mine, and the weird audiovisuals combined with a trippy story made it an enjoyable playthrough. It might have dragged on a bit in the last parts but overall I liked it…I think.

Cyime · October 24, 2021, 8:02am

Just sent a request to join the leaderboard on TA.

Been recently playing all of Remedy’s games in order.

Every GamerScore earned from now until next Monday 06:20 AM (UTC) will count towards week 59’s ranking. Every GamerScore earned until November 1, 2021 06:20 AM (UTC) will also count towards Oktobers ranking.

Don’t forget that this topic is first and foremost destined to talk about all your achievements and trophies, discuss completions and even try to gather people for a boosting session! The ranking is just a side activity to take part in.

Good luck everyone and happy hunting!

FairyEmpire · October 25, 2021, 9:39am

My primary goal for the year was to hit 400k, and I did that. As an optional goal, 450k was on the line, and I think that is possible. There was also an extreme goal of 500k, but I simply didn’t have anywhere near the time to pull that sort of thing off. We’ll see if I manage to grind out the <30k needed for 450k through the rest of the year, though I’d rather spend time on the new games of this packed Fall, haha.

NierlyCrazy · October 25, 2021, 9:43am

I only charted because of my free copy of Energy Cycle….

Shadowgasm · October 25, 2021, 1:39pm

I’m still putting up goose eggs.

Chyld989 · October 25, 2021, 8:15pm

Didn’t hit 1000, but I’m pretty sure I’m done grinding for The Good Life achievements. The quirkiness was fun for a bit, but I completed the story and now it’s a bit old. Moving on to try to do Knights and Bikes and Eastshade before they leave Game Pass at the end of the month.

MasterLeePhD · October 25, 2021, 10:19pm

A Plague Tale 1000/1000G

Started Plague Tale in July and kinda just fell off at chapter 3. So a couple of days ago I fired on the cans and got stuck in. Everything in the game is triple A but I found the Gameplay to be very repetitive at times.

I can see why people want MS to buy Asobo to complete with Sony in the third person battle.

Looking forward to playing the next game in a year or so.

Mort · October 25, 2021, 10:21pm

Nice! I really enjoyed this game, the setting is superb. Great game.

profjjj · October 26, 2021, 6:40pm

I played it a few months ago. One of my favorite games of recent years. Cannot wait for the sequel.

profjjj · October 26, 2021, 6:41pm

Sorry for not knowing this…

What is our game this month and what’s the deadline for completing it?

Chyld989 · October 26, 2021, 7:19pm

The Good Life, and you’ve got until the end of the month. You don’t necessarily need to complete it, as long as you get some achievements in it you’ll get some points.
