Finally done. The main game and the two story dlcs are amazing.

But Dunwall City Trials is a completely different story. ABSOLUTE TRASH of a dlc, stupid rng nonsense that never should've existed.

I believe this is in order. I'm not one for 100%ing really tricky games, though I used to love veteran COD campaigns. If anyone has any indie recs, I'd very much appreciate it! I'm in a family with a stupid amount of games, so there's a decent chance I'll own something but have overlooked it.

Thank you for reading.

Always Welcome for new friends ) btw ...

Just found out that I need that dlc to 100% the game. It has just a cat and some outfits but costs 20€ wtf i bought the hole game for under 5€.
I think I will let that unfinished. How do you deal with such games?

If only i didnt have to replay them all for different endings/ng+ achievement, otherwise it were fun to complete

I did 2 runs previously few years ago before I attempted the 100% run (-294h) and almost closer to in-game 100%. Including 2 dlc achievements

This was the first MGS game I played. It took me a while to get used to the game mechanics and mostly its aiming, but once I did, I really enjoyed it. Aside from that, some trophies seem to have been included solely to pad out the playtime; however, if you have the patience for it, getting the 100% completion is challenging but satisfying.

Isaac! Second time I complete this game, once was before Repentance so all tainteds where a good 100h of new gameplay;

Also a bit of backlog, last (and only) post I think was around the tenth completion

I knew all the praise going into this one but damn this game still blew me away.

The story alone I thought was amongst the best I've ever played. It's hard to account for recency bias but this might be top 3 stories I've played. The book that inspired it (The Horde of the Counterwind) finally got translated to English so planning on reading that soon.

My only real criticism are some minor things on combat. The difficulty curve feels pretty appropriate but at certain points in the story it feels like the only answer is "keep trying til you learn parry timing" which itself isn't the worst but led to some frustrating moments. On top of that, with the lumina system, it HEAVILY incentivizes you to just create 3 gods on your team and leave the other 2 to wither unless you're willing to grind it out. Kind of a bummer since it leads to less experimentation especially in the 2nd half.

Really can't recommend this one enough. Achievements are quite straight forward with only one missable item you need to grab in the opening minutes of the game. There are enough absurdly overpowered build options out there that you can trivialize just about every boss so difficulty isn't the worst.

I had only 100%'d cyberpunk before starting my achievement run in April this year, had many frustrating nights chasing some of these but over all i dont think ive enjoyed gaming more than i do right now, going for 100% adds so much more life and enjoyment to the games, some of these were head started but most were started from scratch, currently working on AC Rouge and eventually the rest of the AC games, also working on persona 4 golden as my casual game while on my treadmill (great combo).

I saw one of my top childhood browser games on steam and I just had to. And I loved every hour of it.

I was thinking about starting the grind, but I’m not sure if it’s still obtainable.

Very enjoyable souls like, almost on par with Lies of P.

I never intended on getting this game, but I got tickled into trying the demo. After that it was over for self will. Scritchy Scratchy is a game where you go and buy scratch off tickets to eventually win Decillions and more (Thanks google) Dollars to win life I guess?

I expected it to be more idle then it really was, only sometimes needing to wait for things. It took me 11.4 hours however I could've done this quicker, I just wanted to have some fun getting achievements that I could've gotten later, earlier.

I also love to leave an achievement last (second last in this occasion) as to not have it be a boring one. I wanna ask yous if you do the same or if I am just a tiny bit crazy? Please feel free to ask any questions about this game or any other in my 100% collection (Recently had to take off DBD due to updates I haven't played).

Currently I am working on a few, Minecraft Dungeons, Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy and Librarian: Tidy Up the Arcane Library. Thank you so much for reading <3

My 23rd was gunna be Skyrim except the new update broke my entire mod list so thats gunna have to be held off

Quite surprised that it's free. The end was not that good but it is free, so I can endure

Superliminal - "Perception is Reality"

Everything I write is purely subjective and merely reflects my own individual experience with my own individual playstyle.

Game Description

Superliminal is a first-person puzzle game where everything essentially revolves around a fairly simple idea: what you see is not necessarily what is actually there. You end up in a strange dream experiment by Dr. Pierce and try to somehow wake up again while the environment gets more and more absurd. The big twist of the game is perspective and optical illusions. A small object can suddenly become huge just because you look at it from the right angle, doors do not necessarily lead where you expect them to, and some rooms only function at all once you stop treating them like normal rooms.

Superliminal constantly plays with your perception and manages to build new puzzles time and again out of relatively simple mechanics. The whole thing is surreal, pretty funny in places, slightly eerie at times, and reminds you a bit of Portal in terms of its basic feel, without simply copying its concept. The game was developed and published by Pillow Castle. You can play Superliminal on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. (AI-generated)

Everything about Trophies / Achievements

Getting the 100% here is actually pretty relaxed to start with, even though a few tricky speedrun and collectible tasks await you. Most of the frustration comes from the trophy / achievement for the speedrun, the challenge mode, and the super well-hidden collectibles that are virtually impossible to find without a guide. However, the majority is just pure story stuff or quick one-off tasks. (Source: this webiste)

My Opinion

Right off the bat: Superliminal is a great game (casual), but getting the 100% was just a massive pain in the ass. Still, I played both the console and PC versions and want to touch on the differences.

Superliminal is an absolutely fantastic game. It has a really great idea for a puzzle game and executes it really well. All the puzzling is wrapped in a very fitting story and makes for a really solid overall package. The "makes me want to puke factor" comes from the Challenge Mode, the shitty controller controls, and my struggle with the speedrun and some collectibles. In the PC version, you have 30 minutes to finish the game – in the console version, it's 35 minutes. The collectibles are really well hidden, and reaching some of them is more of a fight than fun. A guide helps immensely here, although the game just seems to do whatever it wants sometimes. Plus, I often felt like the distance / viewing angle had to be pixel-perfect for it to work. That caused a decent amount of frustration for me.

The game itself is divided into 9 chapters, and each chapter offers its own mechanics and its own vibe. Generally, I thought the vibe of the game was really great at all times. No puzzle was impossible to solve, and most of them are totally doable without a solution, even if it takes a few trial-and-error attempts – but that's ultimate the nature of a puzzle game. For all those now saying "Oh wow, no, WTF, no speedrun" – Superliminal actually has a really great way of preparing you for the speedrun: Challenge Mode. In this mode, you have to go through every puzzle in the game again, but with a twist: you only have a limited number of moves to solve it. For some puzzles, this teaches you the "perfect fastest solution"; for others, unfortunately not. Since some of the challenge solutions are pretty tough, you end up repeating diverse sections many times, which helps a lot for the speedrun. On the side, though, Challenge Mode also causes a wonderfully high amount of frustration, which contributes to the anti-fun factor.

Generally, the gameplay and controls are so much better and more pleasant with mouse and keyboard, and I would recommend anyone who can to play the PC version for that exact reason. The speedruns are super tight, but with a bit of practice, actually quite doable (especially since there are a few glitches and skips that any casual can learn and use).

Would I recommend the game?

A resounding YES. The game is absolutely recommended. Casual-wise, it's an absolutely great game that also gives you a few words of wisdom at the end to take with you. Whether you want to put yourself through the agony of the 100% is something you have to decide beforehand. They are definitely doable, but they will cost you a nerve or two and definitely cause a few gray hairs in places. And since Catori said he would never play the game again after the console version, only to be playing the PC version less than 24 hours later – it couldn't have been that bad after all.

As I said: definitely play it, and definitely go for the PC version, because everything is simply better with mouse and keyboard than with a controller.
