any achievement list/guide around?
hi hi, i was wondering if anyone had made a comprehensive list of when/how you're supposed to get every achievement in the game out of curiosity

i know the achievements are still very new but i decided to finally go ahead with playing and finishing this game fully when they got added, and i know a lot of them are like pretty easy to get on the way to just Playing The Whole Game but i'm rather worried about missing any "missable"/pain in the ass achievements to get lol so it'd be nice if there's anything i can cross-reference that i might've missed while taking a cursory glance

(if there aren't any guides i'll probably just bump this later to ask about specific achievements i'm unsure of)

There is only one missable achievement.
After you get the achievement with a glitchy-looking name near the very end of the postgame (▓▓▓), you should go and get any of the two endings that involve going back to your ship.
If you do the final step in the postgame before getting this achievement, you'll have to play through the entire game again.
Of course, since it's at the absolute end of the game, you don't have to worry about it for a long time, and the postgame is quite large.

Most other achievements you might not get even after 200% involve hidden items that do not add to the completion percentage. It's recommended to get 100% before getting the final postgame ending (and you should only get this ending once; do not do it again on NG+).

gotcha gotcha
i was curious 'cuz of the F R I E N D S H I P that i'm still unsure how to get at the moment and i thought i might've screwed it up but even then i suppose it's not a big deal since i'll be doing another playthrough on a separate file anyway for the speedrun achievement

thanks for your help!

The hint for that is in the Research Outpost.

yeah that's what i thhooouught but i (literally just now) finished that area as far as i could tell and i worry it may have something to do with one of the orbs so

i mean i'll probably look around the texts/monitors in the area just to make sure i didn't miss anything lol

That area probably doesn't convey everything perfectly because our brains immediately think of the large ruins area in the top-right of the map when reading those monitors, even though they explicitly state the location of the ruins where the orbs were found, and they're quite far away from the ruins with the Robed Statue boss.
This has nothing to do with that achievement, however. It's in a secret room near the bottom-right of the map.

ohhh wait i think i'm stupid i think i know what that achievement is supposed to be now, i'll put it off for a little later (i found the clue for it and know where to go) thank you for the help

out of curiosity as well actually, you mentioned that i should only get the final post-game ending once and not on ng+, why is that?

The first time you get the final ending, the percentage value is set to either 143% or 148%, forgot which one. If you do it again in NG+, this happens again, but at that point you really don't want it.
You can (and should) pay a visit to the final single-screen room before the corridor leading to the ending, but nothing past that, as you won't be able to backtrack.

gotcha
also hrrrrmmm i just got thought you could escape but not the pre-requisite achievement
was i s'posed to get it in a different way?
edit: yeah i just got it, it pops up past the clock room

Interesting, how did you get that achievement without the ghost following you?
I remember the glitch achievement triggering when I entered the endless corridor, so maybe it's not a prerequisite for the other achievement.

well, the ghost WAS following me , but i hadn't ever gone into the invalid clock/endless corridor room, so i only had the "in-game" pre-requisite done after being on the doorstep to finishing the post-game ( that is, after pushing the button to open access to the final room )

so i got that achievement before getting the glitch achievement , so i only got that latter achievement after i went into the invalid clock corridor lol

anyway i'm at NG+ now so i'm almost done sweeping up the achievements, many thanks again for your help :keropink:

Ooh, I see. Thanks for clarifying that. I was under the impression that the glitch achievement would trigger whenever the ghost showed up the first time, not specifically only when entering that room.

200% is a little annoying as you must activate every single "story" flag again, as well as all the optional interactions that change the world in some way (like killing the plants, activating the Diskette reader, all four pillars, etc...).

yep yep just finished 200%
now i just need to do some different kind of research to get the speedrun achievement and i'll be all done with the 'cheevos

edit: i am now the environmental station alpha (got a run done in 33min in-game time)
not as bad as i was expecting considering how hard the final boss kicked my butt the first time
