Staged a coup in my Archage guild, we managed to get away with basically all of the guild assets.
Joined guild, made friends with one of the officers and his small in-group of pvpers. Was a reliable asset and helped us get a couple of merchant ships and a galleon, plus had farms just full of high value trade packs.
Problem was the GM and I didn't get along very well. She wanted to dictate how we named the ships in a way that I felt was cringe as hell and generally wasn't open to input or criticism at all. One day I logged in at like 2 or 3 am when no one else in the guild was online and I just left the guild. Next day I logged in and sent messages to the people I'd made friends with and told them the GM kicked me, since it was well known she didn't like me.
Stoked the flames for an hour or so and convinced most of the in-group to quit after we took all the assets we could. Drew a giant dick with barley plants on the front lawn of the GM's player house and then they all g-quit.
She raged for months, shouting in global chat that we were a bunch of pirates anytime she saw us, and tried to gank us multiple times, poorly. It was glorious, but I never told any of them what really happened.
We also invented boatnado. The bouancy physics had a fun glitch where you could make a merchant ship spin on its end at an ever increasing rate and the mast would just fire any ships that got too close off into the horizon. Never fully managed to weaponize this discovery, but we had a ton of fun with it.
I think, probably....spending many hours over a few weeks helping people experience and love Journey after I got my White Robe. Twirling around on the sand dunes, exploring strange places, avoiding danger, and finally seeing them pass through that mountain.
For me every time someone stuck it out added to the memories and I hope each of them remembers that chirpy white robed player who made the game just a little more fun.
I was the main tank of a raiding guild in WoW during the Burning Crusade era. Our guild was the best on the server, but nothing too notable outside of that community. However, when a new quick raid encounter came out (Magtheridon's Lair), we unintentionally completed the encounter in a novel way. I know that because the next week when we went to clear it, a developer whispered me and asked me if he and a few others could watch us because they noticed through some automated log to prevent cheating that we completed the encounter last week without engaging with a major mechanic of the fight. They let us know they were there, but you couldn't see anyone and when you looked up the character name it wouldn't show up if you searched the name. We showed them how we did it, they congratulated us for our ingenuity then told us they were changing the encounter for next week. It was really cool.
A few years ago I got into Enter the Gungeon. For those unaware it's a bullet hell, rogue-like, dungeon crawler with a steep learning curve but great graphics and snappy controls so it is a great time. The first time I beat the game I posted a screenshot on Reddit and the entire community was convinced that it was fake because of my build and the lack of max health I had. At first I was annoyed then I realized that if they didn't believe me then it meant I did something, literally, incredible.
There's 3 that come to mind. I've beat Dark Souls 3 and all it's DLC at level 1. I've beat Pantheon 5 in the Godhome DLC for Hollow Knight. And I've beaten all ascension levels for all characters in Slay the Spire.
I've beat Pantheon 5 in the Godhome DLC for Hollow Knight.
That's really impressive. I can't even beat Pantheon 3. That fucking Zote just keeps fucking me up. Even when I do beat him, I usually get too anxious, make many stupid mistakes, and die to Hornet. I can't even practice on Sly yet.
I can't wait for Silksong. That will fill my day when it comes out.
Thanks. Keep at it! The P5 grind was one of the most fun gaming challanges I have done. There's also only one boss that I have not beaten on Radiant difficulty (Markoth is pure cancer).
I've long given up hope on Silksong. It won't ever come out. My personal theory is that one of Team Cherry had a major life event and production will never resume.
I don't want to get your hopes up. I didn't find out about Hollow Knight untill after all the dlc came out. I haven't been waiting that long, just a couple years, so I'm probably not as jaded as the rest of the community.
It looks like that it will come out by the end of the year. I forgot what I read exactly, but some paperwork getting processed. Of course I will gladly put on my clown make-up when December comes and goes with no word from Team Cherry. 🤡
100%'d blast corps back in the day, caught the hylian loach before there were any guides about it in ocarina of time.
And more (but not terribly) recently, I completed an 'all bosses' challenge run in terraria in which I made all naturally spawning blocks indestructible.
6 solo wins in a row on Fortnite. Decided thst i couldn't stop playing until I lost after the second win.
Got stuck in a glitch Fortnite game with NO STORM. Took over an hour to find everyone and get the win. Had to just fly around in a helicopter until the last dude shot at me.
Me and all members of my clan (9 players) in the top20 players in battlefield 1942 desert combat mod. We were from a stupid small village, lived and breathe that game.
And for cs:source i was number one scout player for a while. Always top 5.
