15 Impossible Steam Gaming Achievements Nobody Unlocked

14. Mortal Kombat (2011) - My Kung Fu Is Stronger

Achieved by 1.1% of players We go from one of gaming's greatest skill-based accolades, to one of the most dreary, time-consuming ones. "My Kung Fu Is Stronger" requires you to tally up 100 victories, 100 fatalities, 150 X-ray attacks, 10,000 pints of blood spilled and 24 hours of gameplay as every single character in the game. So just multiply all the aforementioned figures by 28 and you have an idea of how long it'll take (at least 672 hours of grinding gameplay). This reward spits in the face of challenge and enjoyment, as this kind of time-scale will encourage players to plough through the game on the easiest setting, just to minimise the sheer drudgery of the task. Also, I can't imagine that watching 2800 fatalities - an assortment of decapitations, disembowelments, spine-removals and other creative snippets of gore - can be too good for your mental health. If gaining this achievement doesn't cause you to have a breakdown and start trying to saw your cat in half, the other - more likely - alternative is that the tiring ordeal will leave you jaded and never wanting to play Mortal Kombat again.
