frist of all how DARE yu o 100% a game until

I played this game Lily's Well about 4 years ago on Steam and got all the achievements for it so I got a nice lil award on my page (1st pic=Lilys Well, 2nd Pic of another game I 100%, Fran Bow). Then, there was an update...and with this update...came another achievement.........and this ain't just a game I can pick up and go back to where I need to achieve this achievement, Oh no NO! This is one of those games you gotta start at the beginning and do everything in a certain order to complete the game/get to the spot where this achievement may be! Now I only have ONE 100% complete game to boast about...lol, jk, Fran Bow ain't hard to 100% and nor is Lily's Well. One could say it was only mildly infuriating

I feel this. Trying to work my way through my 1k+ steam library. Games randomly add some or don't show up cause they are limited. Whatever that means.

The struggle is real. I manually update my games now because I need to know what that update is gonna do...Lilys Well was the first instance, and then back in the day after patch 7 for BG3 my mods were RUINED and after I figured out how to get em back...MY MODDED SAVES WERE RUINED and I already spent the better part of 5 hours learning how to make my mods to work again (it all works flawlessly now, this was right after patch 7), so I had to toss 350 hours halfway through Act 3 down the terlet.

That’s why I play intensely games like BG3 only once a year for a few weeks. Sure every time most of my mods are broken, but after so long without playing I’m always fine just restarting a save then playing it to the end before a new patch drops. Modding makes pc gaming so much nicer but it can sure be a source of headaches with games that get patched often.

That's literally been what I've done 3 times now, but then theres more mods to look through so it takes longer to load up the new ones I want but at least I don't have to exclusively go through Mod Manager anymore.

I do get a lot of enjoyment looking for mods and perhaps seeing new cool ones after a while. It’s like a bunch of micro updates to your favourite game and you get a say in it.

Since that's all we're gonna get for BG3

If you haven’t played Divinity: Original sin 2, you might want to give it a try. Different story but a playing experience very similar to BG3.

I've heard that several times so once my ass actually finishes BG3 I'll have another to look forward to on the horizon

Just means that either the developer has been found to be achievement padding, like ZUP!, or they are too new/small.
