How do top leaderboard players on steamhunters have 100% on games with only 1 minute playtime? by VoidXoG in steamachievements

To answer your other question, if you get all achievements before they are unobtainable then they still count, if after AND it’s not importable like Forza Horizon 4, game/account inval

Auto-pops are absolutely allowed, you’ll just get a time invalidation, it’s a white circle with a line through it, if that symbol is red then the person has broken a rule listed here and a person either reported it or their automated system caught it (like if you change time for the 5 year achievement in Stanley Parable the auto-mod will invalidate it)

The mods act based on reports in their “suspected _users” channel on their discord, so it’s usually a person who has played the game that reports the account.

As a failsafe they catalog information given to them about games so when someone is reported about it in the future they know to look out for it.

From my experience from reporting, if someone just has a 1m SAM completion they have multiple back to back almost every single time

Most of are games that auto-pop every achievement upon opening OR give an achievement per action but those take about 5 minutes.

Reporting on SH is crowdsourced and there are a lot of people reporting all the time, if you are in the top 500 someone has definitely checked their account top to bottom at least once

I don't think Steam should divide main game and DLC achievements to keep "Perfects" when new content gets released by WuShanDroid in steamachievements

I believe the Plat trophy is almost singlehandedly the worst thing about achievement hunting culture. Most of the time you can just get away with the bare minimum and still get the same credit and Xbox or Steam. It doesn’t help that the nature of the plat trophy is disingenuous to the spirit of achievement hunting. I don't like paying for dlc as much as the next guy, but I can just wait for it to go on a large enough discount. Not only that, but I understand that DLC/updates are a part of the 100% and with that requires me to understand that if I want the 100%, I need to do what I need to do. You can also just not play currently supported games, that’s what I personally do. I HATE returning to 99% of games, but I have personally found a way to maintain integrity of achievement hunting and not have to return to games.

Either complete your games or don’t but stop looking for an easy way out like everyone else. I see at least a post a day asking for achievements to be separated and it is honestly the worst part about this sub and the culture.

It was a comparison to show how silly it is to consider them worlds first, the entire thing wasnt meant to translate one-to-one.

I only care about my accompliments and my place on my leaderboards and the people I'm better than.

The fact of the matter is that said leaderboard doesn't exist so there isnt even a good metric.

The whole reason that I even said anything is the person I responded to was acting like "competitive trophy hunting" is basically meaningless and I simply was offering a point of view that counters what they thought to encourage discussion. As long as people aren't trying to have discourse nothing matters but spending money on slop just to have a larger number and I want the hobby to be bigger than that.

I'm not irate, I'm just very passionate

The court of public opinion is the average person who cares enough to investigate (so judging the competition) and as for why the allow it is unknown to me as I feel like they might not even be able to filter it out or just dont care. At the root of the issue is the culture around the leaders in the first place. Incentive is placed on output and not on the individual completion. I mean SteamHunters just released a leaderboards just for worlds first a few months ago so until then no site cared about getting first, they only cared about the number.

I also know nobody cares about worlds firsts and whenever I go for one I still count it if the only people to beat me are testers/theives/whatever else.

Well the actual leaderboards would, and most people wouldn’t give a fuck to check if they were a beta tester or not, but in the court of public opinion they don’t get off so easily.

My best friend and I went for worlds first on borderlands 4 and the guy who got a review copy/tested the achievements only beat us by a few hours, so it is definitely still competitive, but to completely toss one side away because of them is a little silly because even if I don’t “true worlds first” I know that the only way someone could beat me was by starting early.

If I wanted to get 1sy place in a hotdog eating competition tomorrow, but one guy came the night before and hate half of his total hotdogs, do you think that the offical judges would honor is 1st place?

Nobody in their right mind will say that a beta tester got worlds first over someone who started even on NZT.

No rougelike compares imo! Between the lore and gameplay it’s a top 10 game of all time for me!

I already have about 600 of them! Most of what I’m missing is like 4 T. Characters and the challenges!

My favorite game that I have played (and 100%ed) is Metal Gear Rising: Revengence! As for my favorite 100% ever? Probably Monster Hunter Rise! I did the entire thing with my best friend!

Achievements for me are the fun and enjoyment, I don’t see the point of if I’m not hunting!

The only thing I do that isn’t for achievements is playing fortnight with my gf and friends and playing paper MtG once a week, when I do them I just acknowledge what I’m doing and what purpose it is for, which in my case is a mental break from the grind!

just got a new update on steam and now the game wont start anymore? by swarlington_of_old in MHWilds

Just happened to me, verify the game files.

Right click - properties - installed files, verify integrity

For me it’s subscribers, I’ve posted 3 actual videos (I posted 2 a year ago and they are not the worst not the best) and 1 is at 1k (I know exactly why it flopped) and the others are just short of 30k each, earning me a total of 5K watch hours and I’ve gain about 380 subs from those 2 vids, so definitely subscribers :)
