So I was recently looking for things to do while I patiently wait for Black Friday to get a Nintendo Switch and my mind drifted back to the Steam Spring Sale where Valve was trying to get users to play their old Steam games again soooooooooooo
I will be, starting today, going through all me old Steam games and at LEAST getting them to 25% achievement completion
The only games I will be excluding from this are as follows:
Games with no Steam achievements
Games I have 0% achievements in (They donāt count towards completion but you can if you want to)
Games that have too many achievements (Think Payday 2 levels)
Games that simply wonāt run/crash too often
Iām challenging everyone else to do the same and play some of your old Steam games youāve forgotten about or wrote off as just plain awful.
I have complete 6 games to at least 25% just today out of my 328 game library (98 games are eligible for this)
ā¦
-yea, iām not gonna go through my x00 library, (or dig out some 10-14 yo game), and just play it āagainā to get X%/āmoreā completion, no way no how do i got the time or desire for that
but best of luck to you, have fun with it
(seems a bit weird to say luck since itās not about luck with that task, ābreak a legā better here in this sense?, -tho not an acting/āperformingā gig either)
Iāve been trying to do something similar for the past year or so. I admit that i did play a lot of HOGās but i actually enjoy those. Itās just that they arenāt that hard to perfect and sort of inflate the completion percentage. Itās incredibly annoying with games that have achievements locked behind DLC.
no worries, no offense taken
-think iām just saying, the āchallengeā, might be more or less so/āintriguingā, depending on ones library size/age/āplayedā too
i recall HL2 being one of the earlier games i just quit quickly on replaying, precisely because it had gotten achievements and i wouldnāt be arsed with that then -and not replayed it since subsequently,
Just checked your libraryā¦I really wish you had Devil Daggersā¦then youād understand the meaning of pain. Just the one achievement, and you need to sell your soul to get it!
I feel you! I have hundreds of games and only a few hours a day to play them. I keep buying games on good sales for when āsomedayā comes. I just bought Borderlands on HBās spring sale but havenāt even started it up yet. Just no time! Last week, I didnāt play anything for 5 days in a row.
I wish I could do this! The ADHD will not allow it.
I play little bits of lots of games, or obsess over one game for all my free time in a week, get it almost complete, forget about it for months, come back, feel like I have to start over.
I donāt usually forget about them. They sit there in my library taunting me. Scrolling past everything I do want to play but have no time for, thinking, āSomedayā¦ā
Then, there are a handful of games that might be awful, most of them coming from giveaways. I have to try them to see. The awful games I remove from my library. So happy that I can do that!
Even though I wonāt be able to keep up right now, I must say, great idea for a challenge!
So I just went through my entire Steam library and 98 games are eligible for this challenge.
It would be slightly higher but certain games (looking at you Witcher 2 and Oddworld) crash on me no matter what I do and others like Kingās Quest and Hitman I only own the free first episode of.
To be honest I donāt think I 100% any of my games . Iām not much of a achievement hunter, I just complete the game then stop, and if itās free play I just mess around not intentionally getting them
can only imagine the pain it is for some that wants thatā¦
i think i have 1 game currently that pisses me of on a single cheevo, because itās ājust 1 leftā, but itās ridic to get because of the games clunky controls combined with the achievement conditions,
-still that āitās just 1 leftā keeps nagging in the back of my mind ābecause it just seems so simpleā to get one single final doneā¦
Itās okay, looking at those achievements, thereās no way iāll get a lot of them. āStart GMod 1000 timesā¦ Waste a year of your life playing GModā¦ Play with 10 friendsā¦ Your Workshop uploads got ___ thumbs upā¦ā Not going to happen, i just want to raise the completion because that 3% itās sitting at is hurting my overall completion rate.
Abyss Odysseyā¦ thereās no way iāll ever get this.
and I already played the crap out of almost all of them 
I have some hard ones in here though. Right now Garryās Mod is kicking my butt.
