I am at 27/30 of the total possible steam achievements. One I know how to get, but two of them have me completely baffled and so I thought I’d ask the community for ideas. Spoilers, obviously:
[spoiler]The first one is Roaring Rise: it has an icon of the ship over a large eye, so my thought was it was an achieve for finding "The Eye" tile. I spent 3 days genning new captains and maps, running a serpentine search pattern along the column 2/3 divider and 4/5 looking for Something Forgotten. Eventually I found "The Eye" and it shook my screen and all, but it didn’t give me any achievement. I was so certain that was what it wanted, but it didn’t work. I manually saved the map just in case. But does anyone have any ideas what this achievement might be if not "The Eye"?
The second one is A Past Wreathed In Shadows: It has the shadowed stranger icon. So I tried starting a captain with a shadowed past. That didn’t do it. I tried then taking a past from an officer and selecting an ambition and completing it. That didn’t work either. Is there something else you can do with the shadowed past I am missing, or am I on the wrong track entirely? Any one have any ideas what this achievement might be?[/spoiler]
Thanks in advance for any help or thoughts on this matter.
I tried retiring in a fancy lodgings without a past, but maybe that’s not enough. You can’t get a traditional ambition without a past either. There are a few “endings” that aren’t an ambition I might try later, but that’s all I know.
Is it possible some of these achievements are for the ambitions that aren’t implemented yet? …although to be honest I’m not sure what how they would be with those names, but.
Maybe you need to get your A Recurring Nightmare (“You have begun to suffer nightmares of a vast eye”) up to a certain level and then sail over the Eye?
It was broken until recently, such that even if you did find the thing it didn’t give the achievement. But it’s noted as fixed in the latest patch notes.
[quote=Fhoenix]Have you tried looking at The View from Above while without a past? Would be interesting to know result even if you don’t get an achievement.

Huh. That seems like it’s either going to totally break the game or lead to an awesome Easter Egg.
