Achievements you'd rather not achieve?

[scarab7]

Pretty straight forward, what game achievements do you not want to get?

Hedge-hopper from Metro 2033: I'd have to kill every soldier on the level, and I just never feel like killing unarmed prisoners.

Consolation Prize from Team Fortress 2: Get back stabbed (Killed by a Spy knife from behind) 50 times. Still haven't gotten this one yet.

I'm sure if I gave this more thought I could think of more, but I want to hear from the community.

Honestly, multiplayer achievements in a mostly single-player game. GTAIV, Red Dead Redemption, Red Faction Guerrilla, and so on.

Even worse are the ones that require you to play with a dev or someone else who has played with a dev. For some reason I just find those to be incredibly stupid.

Anything that deals with multiplayer really, but if I had to pick one, it would have to be reaching level 50 in AC Brotherhood, I don't have the patience for that. I'm barely at 25 when I stopped because I realized the people in every play session I've been in are a bunch of idiots and don't even bother playing by the rules.

The other one would have to be from Dead Space 2 where you have a limited amount of saves that you can use to beat the game, I don't know about that.

None, I am a complete and utter achievement whore

I'm so ashamed of myself

 

[ChildofGallifrey]

I don't really give a brain slug's hindquarters about achievements, so I'm fine with not achieving any of them.

Even worse are the ones that require you to play with a dev or someone else who has played with a dev. For some reason I just find those to be incredibly stupid.

But specifically this, unless the dev is Tim Schafer.

 

[Royal King]

Any achievement that involves collecting things and 3 digits. No, I do not want to collect 500 spiders, Spider-Man. No Thanks.

Any multiplayer achievement that cannot also be done in single player / Co-Op. This is especially true in any game with tacked-on lag fests, like the Smackdown Vs Raw series.

Any achievement with a time limit measured in days. For example, the "My Kung Fu Is Stronger" achievement in Mortal Kombat will take you 26 days of match time to complete. Twenty. Six. Days.

I really can't be bothered getting 10,000 kills in Resistance 2.

 

[Easton Dark]

I really don't want to do the online gambling minigames in Red Dead Redemption.

*sigh* But I will.

 

[Ninjat_126]

I really can't be bothered getting 10,000 kills in Resistance 2.

PVP kills, or Chimera kills? Because I killed that many easily on my first playthrough.

Probably multiplayer ones. And the gnome one in Half-Life 2: Episode 2.

 

[Biosophilogical]

Pity achievements are both fun and sort of sad. You know, the ones you get from being killed by landmines 50 times, or falling down a hole, or being killed by the weakest enemy, etc. Though the anal ones (that only the achievement whores/100%ers bother getting) are ones I don't want, simply because I don't want something to stand as a testament to my lack of social life.

Oh sorry I was referring to PVP kills, I got the Xenocide trophy ages ago.

 

[redeemer09]

that one where i had to marry my freind online...ugh

 

[Ice Car]

Complete Strictly Business on Fallout 3.

WHAT?!?! NO, I DON'T WANT TO ENSLAVE RED OR FLAK! Even though all I need to do to 100% the non-DLC portion is that achievement, the level 20 Karma achievements and hacking 50 computers.

Then I got Tales of Vesperia and now I'm too addicted to that to finish what I started.

 

[onewheeled]

Double Trouble in the first DJ Hero. It's one of the two achievements I can't get. I mean, I just can't be bothered to drag the one person I know who plays the game over to my house with his turntable to play some multiplayer. And no, you can't just do it with a regular controller.

Also, the new achievement in Team Fortress 2 where you have to get 100,000 views on one of your replays on Youtube. Just... no. That will NEVER happen. Ever.

 

[Chibz]

Superman Returns. "Not That Super". To get it, "Entered a cheat code in a desperate plea for help."

 

[Et3rnalLegend64]

Not quite the same, but I wish I didn't get those first couple Lego Indiana Jones achievements. I've already sold the game and there's no way I can delete it from my achievements list, so the completed/total ratio is permanently skewed now.

 

[CoffeeOfDoom]

This.
I have every single achievement for Assassin's Creed 1 and 2, Brotherhood is the only one I haven't been able to, all because of multiplayer! -_-

Don't play by the rules? What exactly are the rules...? They didn't hack the game to act ot of accordance with the games rules so what are you talking about?
