In KB:TL there weren't even any medals, but we still made our own challenges and had a lot of fun doing it too. Who was it who came up with the "win the game on impossible-no losses-only using Imps challenge????
If the "achievements" aren't going to have any rewards, what's the point in someone else defining what they should be? As per my original post, why isn't there an achievement for beating the game with no losses? |
Hello there!
I think it's just a general 'nice' achievement to "show off". Yeah, some games do have extra unlocked stuff with achievements but eh, I think I will live. It is sort of nifty to see who can do the 15 round boss kills.
I mean, I killed Ktahu in 6 rounds with Warrior in Impossible. It would be much easier if it was just an achievement.
Honestly, I'm more of a pragmatic player and no-loss was necessary in Impossible due to finite resources.
impy's crazy challenges was just that... crazy challenges. And I think now you can have MORE crazy challenges since the game is easier so you have more flexible options and can carefully increase difficulty while still making it possible. I think after we digest the game more we can start thinking of insane stuff.
