It's not an achievement, but this is pretty rare

damn, y'all, how big were the dinos back then ?

Big enough to screw up the platters on my hard drive when they stomped by!

You had to walk into the computer to catch the bugs.

I was very anti steam when it first came around and only got an account once CS forced me to to continue to play. My join date is the beginning of 05 so you must have been a super early adopter!

What about the inverse?

I got Satisfactory before the 1.0 release. I played most of the game before achievements were added. Now the achievement for "reaching the credits" is achieved but "finish the tutorial" is still waiting to be done.

Wow that's hard to figure out, I went looking for games I had the most achievement completion and tried to find which one had achievements most people had that I didn't:

  • I never scored 6 goals in one game in Rocket League (60.5% of players did)
  • I never stabilized Gale's Orb in Baldur's Gate 3 (44.8% of players did)
  • I never became the champion of Fort Joy Arena in Divinity Original Sin 2 (42.2% of players did)
  • I never saved the Printer in Dishonored 2 (31.2% of players did)

Not as rare as some others, but takes a little while to achieve:

0.4% Pillars of Eternity 1: No Rest for the Pro. Complete the game with fewer than 10 rests.

Somehow I'm among the 6.1% of Stanley Parable players with this one.

One of the rarest achievements I have is not at all difficult. It's not even trying to be. It's on Street Fighter 5 for saving 30 replays. Apparently nobody does that?

1.3

Definitely not as rare as most of y'all and probably only as rare as it is because of how many millions of people play stardew valley without ever even trying the arcade machines.

I'm this many years old on Steam and don't know how to find my achievements on the mobile app.

My rarest achievement is from The Long Dark (Finely Tuned) at 0.1%. But that's because not many people played the last episode when it came out.

My most memorable is from Titanfall 2 (...Becomes the Master) Place in the top 3 of the Gauntlet scoreboard. That one is at 2.9%

Close to my rarest, but very fun and surprisingly strong! From Victoria 3

Not as low as some other percentages in this thread but I was very proud to beat the last pantheon in Hollow Knight. You have to beat every boss in the game in a row without dying

I don't have it on Steam yet, but I have Balatro's Completionist++ on mobile.

I'm working on getting it on Steam too. Once you've done it once, getting it again isn't hard, just time-consuming. It's a 0.2% achievement, I think.

Every device I own eventually becomes a Balatro machine.

Phone? Balatro Machine. Steamdeck? Balatro Machine. Work Laptop I can't install programs on? Oh, look at that. Another Balatro machine.

Heart of the machine, 0.4%

[-] brsrklf@jlai.lu 13 points 4 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Not at all an achievement hunter, and Steam is not my default gaming platform...

But I checked my rarest achievements and I've got a 1.4%. Which does not sound much, except it's in fucking Skyrim, and absolutely trivial to get.

OK, there's the catch : it's because this is Skyrim VR. It's the achievement you get just for mining ore and chopping wood.

Looks like there are some relatively easy .3/.4% to get there if you've got a VR headset and some dedication. And manage to keep the game working long enough to get those. That might be the hardest part, because ... Bethesda.

[-] kieron115@startrek.website 2 points 3 days ago

I got this through sheer indecisiveness on my first playthrough.

[-] ephrin@sh.itjust.works 14 points 4 days ago

0.2% in CK3.

[-] Zorsith 12 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Watch_Dogs, 0.2% achievement

T-Bone: Negative Eugenics achievement

[-] 9point6@lemmy.world 14 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Not strictly my rarest

But I remember taking a good while to actually achieve it (FTL)

[-] jerkface@lemmy.ca 13 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Thank you for asking!

My rarest achievement (0.3%) and most of the other rare ones were mainly for winning the Godly difficulty of the Neter campaign on From The Depths with my own creations. Each faction was its own achievement.

My second-rarest (0.4%) and proudest achievement is my tenth dan black belt in Toribash. I'm really close to custom belt but I haven't played in like 20 years. Oh my god.

Lazy Bastard, Getting On Track, Raining Bullets, TIS-100, and a couple Noita ones

Out of the Red 0.2%

Shadows of Doubt. These achievements are not rare because they are difficult, but because they are tedious. Most of the ones listed here are just repeatedly eating a food item, which costs almost nothing (1200 credits for solving a typical case, 700 for an easy case; 12 credits to buy a Croque Monsieur, the most expensive food in the game.)

Rat Catcher: Solve a murder while your PoV is at the ground, but you can crawl up walls, and also nobody will talk to you. This achievement is rare mostly because this game mode was added a few years after this game peaked in popularity.

Spare No One: KO everyone in town, in a game where you are discouraged from using violence. Finding a katana and knocking out everyone you see on the street is easy enough. The real challenge here is keeping track of everyone. Some NPCs glitch out and get stuck in their houses, never go outside, and never come to work. You'll have to identify them, find out where they live, and hunt them down. Some NPCs have accented characters in their names, making them difficult to search for on the computers in game, which do not allow you to type such characters.

If you make a case board to keep track of everyone, the case board takes exponentially increasing time to open for each person you pin onto it. By the end, it was taking me about 5 seconds each time I opened it. That was in a custom procedurally generated town of the smallest possible size -- it would be worse on any of the stock towns.

Out of the Red: pay off 10,000 to a loan shark in 1,000 credit increments, one payment per day. Raising 10,000 can be done in half a day easily. Paying it off takes for ever. You can't make payments early. Each one-day wait takes a few minutes, since the game has to simulate every NPC in town. And remember to turn off the procedurally generated murders, because otherwise your loan shark might get killed, and you can't make payments any more (it happened to me, and I had to load a save.)

There’s a lot of achievements on this game that barely anyone has

[-] Furbag@pawb.social 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

All my latest most rare achievements are all from Megabonk, which IMO don't really count. They are easy to get if you just play long enough.

My rarest for a very long time was this one with something like 0.3%, but it has apparently since gone way up. It used to have one of those gold borders around it indicating it was very rare. I got this on my second round that I played and then quit pretty much right after that. Not a very good game, unfortunately.

The one I am most proud of is this one:

I got bored after I took over Britannia as the Britons and had no more enemies who could realistically challenge me, so I sailed directly down to Rome with my army of slingers and tribesmen and sacked Rome for something like 100k denarii.

EDIT: Well, nevermind, this is my newest rare achievement (for now)

Software Inc. Apparently people don't like it when you take away their company car, vacation pay, end of year bonus, and end of year pay increase. Who knew.
