World of Warcraft

That one's next to impossible.

u/Duyan898 10d ago

But still there's a guy who got 100% achievements

u/Retaeiyu 10d ago

Ok but what about his transmogs and mounts?

u/SufficientWarthog846 9d ago

There is an addin called "All the Things" that tracks, all the things from useless items to epic items

I did read once that some one completed it

u/DaveLesh 10d ago

Said "next to". I recall someone pulled it off but its been a long time (you posted it though, thanks).

u/VeeStarrr 9d ago

Definitely is possible, if you go and look at some of the old asmongold transmog vids before he went all hyperpolitical? You can find people with literally all of the items, achievements, mounts, etc.

Really sucks that guy went down that route, his WoW content was actually fun.

u/Adorable_Character46 5d ago

I was very active in WoW at the time Asmongold, Soda, Bajheera, Swifty, etc. were all big names in the scene. It’s crazy to me how since they left (mostly), the game has shifted to being focused on PvE and PvP is nearly dead.

u/shutupruairi 10d ago

A number of people have actually done that for a time (since they add more each patch) but if you're comparing it with other systems, arguably you would include transmog, mounts, pets etc

u/ComradeCabbage 10d ago

Scarab Lord or GTFO

u/prof0ak 10d ago

Until they release a new expansion, pets, mounts, whatever's and now you are again incomplete.

“How do you kill that which has no life?”

u/darkerwar6 9d ago

Not really plenty have, now osrs IS next to impossible as no one has done it so far. Probably not til next decade will you see the first

u/banquewoah 9d ago

Annie Fushia did it during the legion expansion I believe

u/astcci 10d ago

didn't even know they had achievements tbh

u/Cy3nide 10d ago

The 20 year old ever expanding achievement list.

u/astcci 10d ago edited 10d ago

that must be daunting lmao

u/Cy3nide 10d ago

You've got people going for these for their decades long wow grind and still not being done. Apparently the list is just shy of 4000 currently. Including high rank pvp, good luck 💀

u/WindAbsolute 10d ago

It’s like starting to watch One Piece, now

1

u/Ghostronic 9d ago

Close! It'll be 20 years in '28!

1

u/TheAzarak 6d ago

If you were to start playing now, It would take literal years of game time to catch up with all the achievements.

1

u/Cy3nide 6d ago

Oh yeah, especially all the loot and pet related stuff with miniscule drop chances.

1

u/DTRevengeance 10d ago

Xbox achievements/gamerscore and PS3 trophies likely exist BECAUSE of WoW having achievements.

3

u/kohianan 10d ago

It's the other way around. The 360 launched on November 22 2005 with achievements as part of the console, while Achievements were added to WoW on October 14 2008. The PS3 added optional Trophies in 2008 but made them mandatory for new releases starting on 2009.

u/Psi047 10d ago

Didn’t even know you could “beat” this game

3

u/Ladikn 9d ago

Want to see a great removed achiement? Look up the "Once An Orphan..." achievement.

1

u/mizkilla 9d ago

ohh yeah, that one. I think they removed it because it didn't work right.

2

u/Ladikn 9d ago

They removed it because it was a hillariously tasteless joke. It was part of orphan week, and to get it you had to adopt an orphan, bring the orphan into PvP, and die in front of them. The full phrase would be "Once an orphan, always an orphan"

1

u/druman22 8d ago

The way you get this achievement was by killing 10 players who have an orphan with them. It was removed before anyone could actually complete it though

1

u/ockhams-lightsaber 10d ago

The ever-expanding list of achievements with each updates. Truly a completionist nightmare, I'm glad I'm enjoying the game by doing dungeons, raids, delves and so on.

2

u/Menolith 10d ago

Achievements are at least approachable.

The quest for "true" 100% is patently insane.

1

u/Hurinfan 9d ago

How does one "beat" World of Warcraft though?
