Speedrun & 100% achievements with DLCs?

[Jay]

Do we have to complete the new DLCs content to get 100% now? Or can those new things be avoided and still get the achievements related to speedrunning and 100% ?

Quick tip- I think it's faster to grab the Grimm Troupe charms than to do the White Palace if you're going for Speed Completion.

I feel somewhat ripped off because it took me 10 hours to finish my Steel Soul speed-completion file and now people can skip large/difficult chunks with this update. While I do love White Palace and finished that in under half an hour, I can see how this will benefit people.

Oh great, thanks! Glad to hear that, good job Cherry Team!

And the White Palace tip sounds amazing

Well, from a previosu thread they said they're thinking of a new completion % achieve/challenge once DLC 3 comes due to the higher %s. so likely your efforts will not be for naught, just wont have an immediate effect

I also did my Steel Soul in 10 hours (11 now thanks to 106%ing the recent DLC). I wont be touching it til DLC 3

EDIT: Here's the quote

I have one question, now that you can get the game to 106%, is it intentional that this has decreased the difficulty of 100% achievements exponentially?, are you guys going to do something for this or it was simply a decision made by you guys?

Thank you.

We're looking at adding some new % completion achievements with the next (final) content pack: For now though we'll leave the 100% achievements as they are.
