Save for 'For the Hoarder'

[Zyrconia]

Anyone got a save for 'For the Hoarder'?

The description is 'You completed the game without selling any items.'.

So basically you needed to complete the game without selling anything. I was not aware of this achivement and sold all my junk.

Than you!

Just play it again when you are finished with the first playthrough, good excuse to play as a different class the 2nd time.

Like B00tsy said, just play it again. There are two acheivements related to this:

1) Sell 300 items
2) Don't sell anything

So you should play it through again anyways. If anything, just do the main quests...won't take more than 5-8 hrs if you remember what you're doing.

Lol, not with my backlog :).

In 5 to 8 hours I can finish Transistor and Game of Thrones. Probably Tales from Borderlands too...

And I need to finish Dragon Age 2 so I can start 3...

It sucks so bad to no longer have time for gaming.

Am I the only one that doesn't get this obsession with achievements? It's a nice addition to the in-game goals if you've finished a game but want to play it some more, but why would you care about it if you don't want to play anymore? Go and enjoy the next game :)

If you get an achievement you didn't actually, you know, achieve, you might as well write it on a post-it and stick it to the corner of your screen for a few seconds, for all it's worth.

You are not alone on this. Hell, nearly every game I have the trophies and achievements are incomplete.

The ones I did 100% with achievements/trophies were either insanely easy, or the achievements all unlocked through story progression making their inclusion pointless.

The only time I 'try' for an achievement, is when it will provide a genuine challenge for an additional playthrough.

Achievements actually save me money. Granted, I buy games because I want to play them, with or without achievements. However, when I buy a game w/ achievements that I really enjoy, I try to 100% it before moving to the next game and/or spending more money.

Yes, achievement are not that important. And I did move on. On the other hand, they are a nice little bonus. It is very rare for me to get to 100% a game and I almost did for South Park. Had a run in which I got all the missable trophies except fro this. So I would need to replay the game only for one trophy. South Park was good, but not so good that I'd play thought it again just for this stupid trophy. It is also not a fun one: don't sell stuff so you have less money.

On the other hand, trophies can make a game more fun. Take Deux Ex Human Revolution. I did a 100% single run (except for the multiple endings of course, where I reloaded the save before the ending and choose a different one). I had a single playthough where I had to finish the game on hard, without killing anyone or raising any alarms, while finding all the collectibles (there weren't that many), doing all the side quests and beating the bosses with an inventory that was full of gear for a stealth playtrough. And I did this on my first playthough, going in blind. I did preplan the flow of getting all the trophies before starting to play though.

The achievements in this game are not that bad. There are other games that makes you play the game almost to the end and then you have to go back to basically the beginning of the game just to get some item or object to compete an achievement (Tomb Raider for example) and that just sucks and makes really no sense other then a lame attempt to make the game longer then it is.

Oh yeah, achievements can definitely be a nice addition to games, sometimes they're funny, and sometimes they even cause you to play differently than you would 'normally'. It's when they become a chore that I start to wonder why people want them ("collect al 60.000 golden feathers"). What I REALLY can't believe is when people (and btw, you didn't) start complaining about them being too hard or too much work :p I remember long rants in the forums of guild wars 2 from people complaining that you had to go to the PVP areas in order to get the 100% land discovery achievement...

I did not complain on forums, but ♥♥♥♥ that! I do not have it for the same reason! Keep the PvPs out of my PvE games! :))
