People have made fun of those who play WoW for many years now. The classic “how does one kill that which has no life” joke from South Park all those years ago is proof. Now, one player has unlocked every achievement in the game.
Russian player, Хируко, has attained every single achievement in World of Warcraft. That’s 2057, plus an additional 205 of the 300 Feats of Strengths available. I suppose now he must just twiddle his thumbs until the next expansion (Warlords of Draenor) lands. Just look at this progress overview:
I find this kind of dedication equal parts impressive and terrifying. I will admit, I love the ding of getting a trophy/achievement. It is strangely gratifying to see that some achievements I gained for Civ V are shared with less than 1% of people who play the game. However, I’m not sure I will ever be this much of a completionist. I may like getting trophies, and occasionally do things over and above my normal style of gameplay in order to get them, but I wouldn’t go this far.
Are you discouraged or encouraged by this strange display of achievement dedication? I know that I couldn’t get there – I’m just not that much of an achievement hunter. It does show the limits of MMOs, though. If someone can max out all the content available for WoW, how do games like TESO and WildStar stand a chance?

Yes that is the game we are talking about, but how do you feel about the achievement?

I can’t say that I feel nothing when hearing that unlocked sound, but I wouldn’t return to a game just for it.

You get more than 50 achievements just by lvling through to 90… #justsaying

I believe Martin has the correct comment for this:
“Respect to the guy for achieving this. If you can read this through all the sex you’re getting,thank you”

Some folks are just dedicated to this kind of thing lol. I think I’m at 14200 achv points now, but I don’t really go after them obsessively. Most of it’s just because I’ve crawled all over Azeroth’s ass with a fine toothed comb.

Are any of them as fantastic as this? I normally don’t bother to go out of my way for achievements, but when I accidentally got the first one I knew it was something I had to have.
