Recently I’ve been mostly concentrating on either games I’ve won on SteamGifts (A Boy and His Blob, Gyromancer) or games that I’m getting closer to 100% achievements on (Costume Quest - ‘tis the season after all, The Talos Principle).
One thing that many of my SG wins have in common is they don’t have achievements. Many of them have clear goals (Odd or Even, Girls Like Robots, and adventure games like Lilly Looking Though) - but I have a few that are pretty open ended, like Galatic Civilization II.
Its the latter I’m currently spending some time thinking about how I will aim to “finish it” (although as you might see from my playtime in it, its not been that high in my priorities yet). My thinking right now is I might steal Civ 5’s general achievement structure and use that (win with every race, at every difficulty, perhaps map configurations too). Any suggestions would be very welcome though!
Heyy Kel-nage :) Welcome to Backlog! Usually I say that a game is beaten when either I beat the main campaign and if there is no campaign like most infinite game (Total war, endless space, …) I just decide when I have enough of it :P If you want to consider it “Completed”, your idea of copying Civ5 might be good. But it will take you a while :D
Thanks for your kind welcome :) I feel that given the scope of the game, it deserves to have a lot of play before I can call it completed. And given my previous propensity for 4X games, I don’t think it’ll be too hard for me to play it lots. But all that’s said before I’ve really given it a good go - I may well have had enough it sooner rather than later. We shall see!
Hello,
Well from the all the game’s titles in your post the only familiar one is Civ 5 xD
I’ve won it on SG and I still haven’t started it.
I pee inside the achievements for it and oh god they are over 200 T_T
I’m proud to say I managed to get 228 of those achievements before Civ 6 came out (wanted to get them all, but time got in the way). I wouldn’t copy all of those however - there’s a lot that are Civ specific (like all the expansion scenarios, special units etc.).
