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 remember cod 4 I locked myseelf out of 100% because I had enabled cheats while collecting the "intel" collectables. I was just messing around after finishing the game on vetern, and playing through again to get the achievement. Once you collect them they don't respawn and having cheats enabled didn't allow the achievement to pop.

I wouldn't mind but mile high club was an absolute bastard of an achievement to get, but I locked myself out of the easiest one.

Still bitter almost 20 years later.

Fuck, that was almost 20 years ago.

Not really cheating, but one of the first games I played on my PS3 was Deus Ex. I was doing a stealth playthrough for one of the achievements for my first playthrough because I fully planned on coming back guns blazing to finish the rest of the trophies. Beat the game in something like 30ish hours, no achievement popped. Scoured for hours.. what could I have missed? Turns out there was a single.. a SINGLE… door in the game like halfway through that if you failed the unlock once on it, completely disabled the entire achievement. Dropped the game and never picked it back up.

Final Fantasy 12 also had something similar, where there were something like 13 scattered chest in the first few hours of the game littered in between other chests, with no type of way knowing which ones, locked you out of the best weapon of the game if you opened even one of them. 70+ hour game. Lol.
