Online achievements in single-player games deserve an article of their own. In essence: a few years after the premiere of a given game, there is rarely anyone to play with. Such was the fate of, for example, the 2013 Tomb Raider. It had quite an extensive multiplayer mode, but the game servers were emptied quite quickly. Meanwhile, there was an achievement for reaching the 60th character level in multiplayer.
Even today, you could probably gather a group of people and do it the usual way. However, I started looking for a solution on the web – and I found it. I found it, and it turned out not so much difficult as time consuming. All you had to do was create a private game, select the Rescue mode and increase the number of med kits to be found to 20, and maxing out the match time. Such setup yielded 30,775 experience points. Level 60 required "only" 1,771,100...
After a dozen hours of dull grind or so, the achievement "True Commitment" (could there be a more accurate name?) was finally in my basket. By the way, I got another – "Shopaholic", because I had so much game currency that after buying all the items in the store I still had some money left. Was it worth it? Nope. Fortunately, while running back and forth, I listened to an audiobook, so the time spent on it was not completely wasted.
