Maybe it’s that first PUBG victory, or becoming a Grand Champion on Rocket League. Maybe it’s the time you got passed that awfully difficult level, or the time you actually got around to finishing your backlog.
What achievement are you proud of?

Being (briefly) 9th in the world at Unreal Tournament. :)
I’d say Hyper Light Drifter’s 800-dash challenge. It was dumb and daft but boy am I still proud I got it done.
Did you do it manually?
Yes, although I think with the sound turned off so it wouldn’t distract me to get the rhythm right.
Mare Nostrum in Europa Universalis IV. Restoring the Roman Empire was the first big achievement I got in the game.
For me its between my first FFXIV Twintania or WoW Arthas 10 Man hard first kill.
I don’t know what it is about first kills with a group of players in an MMO, but weeks of work and collecting gear for a hard fight and then beating it is super rewarding
Either platinuming sekiro or beating devil may cry 5 on dante must die difficulty, I’m not sure which is better. Platinum sounds more impressive, but according to steam achievement stats dmc5 dmd is rarer so I guess I’ll pick that one
My platinum in Bloodborne.
Fuck you Defiled Amygdala. Go eat a Winter Lantern.
After years of grinding, I’ve reached a solid foundation in 2d fighting games.
I got hooked on a game in college called Sveerz. It was one of those Wild Tangent games that came preinstalled on my laptop. I loved that game and played way too much during class. I managed to get the #1 worldwide rank by about double the next highest score, and I was crowned with an icon that called me “The One.”
Funny thing was, I didn’t realize I was anywhere near the high score. I was just having fun.
Red, yellow, blue, green. Sveerz! I loved that game. My husband hated it.
Back in the days I was one of the first to get the Loremaster achievement on out server in WoW. It basically meant doing every quest in the game.
Another one is not so much a coded ingame achievement, but I can do The Secret of Monkey Island from beginning to end without hesitating at any point. Most of Monkey Island 2 too, but som parts still gets me.
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided non lethal playthrough
Now this is luck and not skill, but I traded Pokémon in Pokémon GO with a friend. When you do this, the Pokémon you send to your friend rerolls its IVs. The Duskull I sent him rerolled its IVs, the Buneary he sent me rerolled its IVs, and we both ended up with perfect-IV Pokémon.
(I’m a 100-IV aka perfect-IV hunter in Pokémon GO. In the mainline games, I tend not to care as much.)
Was it a lucky trade?
Yes!
Gaming for 30 years straight and never picking up any completionist disease, enjoying games up until the content is dense enough fro me to have fun and moving on after finishing it, as in, killing the last boss, winning the tournament, exploding the base, not as in picking up the .jpgs of spiderman hiding under the barrels.
I’ve never gone for in game achievements. The most memorable personal achievement was as a kid completing Sonic 1 with all emeralds without using cheats.
I beat Eve Online
I would probably say the time I stole the aegis (my first and only real aegis steal, I rarely think the risk is worth it partly because of the characters I play)
This happened a long time ago https://youtu.be/_e4cmiAfXsg
Have you ever seen keeper of the light aka KOTL stealing aegis and living
