Guest proggy Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Just recently completed every achievement in this absolute masterpiece of a game. Huge props to anyone else that has done this, as some of these achievements are insanely difficult. If you haven't heard of Hollow Knight, it's a metroid-vania style game that is usually compared to Dark Souls since it is both difficult and fair. Here's some of the harder challenges I spent the last few weeks getting: To get this, you have to beat every boss in the game in a row without dying. This was fucked up and took hours and hours of perfecting bosses. This might not seem hard, but that last 12% of DLC is extremely difficult. Specifically the Godmaster DLC. This was a wild ride full of so many heart-dropping moments. If you die on Steel Soul mode, your file deletes. This should only be attempted if you have mastered the game, or else you will be resetting a ton. Only 1% of HK players wind up completing this. These weren't too bad, but did take some preparation to do. I think its fairly reasonable for a person to get these on their first playthrough of the game if they follow a good route. My first playthrough was blind and thorough, so I had to run through the game again for these. Real speedruns of this game are insane. I might pick a category and take that up sometime, or perhaps beating the game hitless. I wish I was recording when getting these achievements, but I'm usually in Teamspeak or Discord while I play, so I decided against it. If you like platformers and haven't checked this out I strongly recommend it. It's probably the best $15 game I've ever bought. I can't wait for the sequel Hollow Knight: Silksong to come out.
