Easiest Achievements On Xbox One - 23k Gamerscore in 5 Hours?!
Easiest Achievements On Xbox One.
About a month ago, I released a video on the easiest games of all time for achievements.
These games featured titles such as Storm Boy, Avatar, Surviving Mars, and fractured minds, with
the total times varying from 45 minutes to as quick as 5 minutes. At the time, I was unaware of
some updates done to Xitilon Games that not only made their games incredibly easy to complete,
but added an extra 1000 Gamerscore to increase the total to 2000.
Updates done to a number of games, have made it possible to unlock all the achievements in 5-30 minutes.
TrueAchievements.com sat down with Xitilon Games publisher, who preferred to stay anonymous, and was quoted saying,
" I asked Xitilon why these titles received these updates and what his response was to some who believe that achievements were being devalued.
Xitilon told me they simply didn’t realize updates such as these could be implemented. After receiving a suggestion from YouTube achievement guides maker Cheevo Guides,
and subsequently being put in touch with Grim Talin, developer of Elena Temple, (another game that received a free 1,000G update that was received well
by the achievement hunting community) took on their advice and followed in their footsteps."
They went on to say that,
"...their updates are “just making people aware of how everything works,” and that Microsoft doesn’t put any restrictions on what a developer
can implement in terms of difficulty when it comes to achievements. “Those who are worried about the actual ‘achieving’ factor of the achievements,
should use not Gamerscore but another, corrected metric. For example, TA Score, as conveniently proposed by the TrueAchievements system,
relies on the rarity of obtaining the achievements, instead of the fractured picture of what every publisher and developer decides to do with their achievements.”
Xitilon goes on to say that they are not over-using the Gamerscore system and that other developers are “under-using it because they simply do not care about the Gamerscore much.”
Xitilon owns games such as Castle of no Escape, Castle of no Escape 2, Mushroom Quest, Mushroom Savior, Aborigenus, ReactorX, 50 Years, Dark Grim Mariupolis,
Smart Moves, The Explorer of Night, Bullet Beat, and Cold Silence. All except for Cold Silence have 2000 available gamerscore, and all of them can be completed
in less than an hour, with many of them taking 10-15 minutes maximum. That is 23,000 gamerscore in around 5-6 hours. They are all in store for $4.99 USD or $6.49 CAD (eh) and frequently go on sale.
If you have the money, maybe left over from the holidays and are looking for a huge gamerscore boost, definitely buy some of these games. I would also recommend
putting these games on your wish list, so you can be notified when they go on sale.
Let me know how you feel about these games. Do you think this is against the spirit of achievement hunting or do you believe more games should be utilizing
the achievement feature by changing total gamerscore and difficulty of games already released? In my opinion, I think this is good for achievements as whole,
as it brings more attention to our community and makes it so that more hunters can get larger numbers. I also believe that TA Ratio is a great way to analyze
an achievement hunters gamerscore. Make sure to subscribe if you haven't already, it only takes a second, it's free, and it helps out the channel a lot!
