How to unlock the Galactic Frugality achievement in Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy - Definitive Guide

This is completed right before complete Chapter 9. This is a MISSABLE achievement as you do have the option to not pay the fine. Make sure to select to pay the fine when completing the dialogue sequence with the Nova Corps Worldmind.

For the ability to pay the fine, you'll want to have 7000 or 8000 units available depending on if you secret stashed the space llama or Rocket's tech.

If you did not pick a choice to stash either object, you will need to pay a 9000 fine.

Everyone's playthroughs will be slightly different depending on the choices they made. The best route for this achievement is to pick to stash the space llama and be careful with your spending on Knowhere.

If you happened to miss this achievement, a new option to create a save is available by holding LB + LT + Y to unlock the save option within a chapter.

This is a multi step achievement that takes place over multiple chapters. Even though it isn't missable because of Chapter Select, you potentially will need to play through many consecutive chapters over again if you need to attempt this again via Chapter Select. 

Chapter 2 - right at the start of this chapter, when talking with Nova Corps on your ship, you'll be given the option to hide the llama or crate of parts before they board your ship. If you hide the llama you'll get a 7000 unit fine, hide the parts you'll get an 8000 unit fine, or if you hide neither you'll get a 9000 unit fine for both. You'll get enough money in the next step no matter which option you choose. 

Chapter 4 - during this chapter you will end up in a vault. During this point, you'll have the opportunity to steal as many units as possible from the vault. If you steal all available units (they glow yellow in your visor), you should be around 11,000 units when done with this chapter. 

Chapter 6 - there are a ton of things to spend money on in Knowhere. You can spend money on some items or a Guardian Collectible if you want, but none is required for any achievements. Either way, just make sure you save enough for the fine payment later. 

Chapter 9 - when you reach Xandar and pull up the panel to send a message to Worldmind, choose 'Past Crime,' then 'Pay A Fine.' After the lengthy conversation, choose to 'Confirm Payment.' This will finally unlock this achievement.

Missable trophy!
In Chapter 6, you will have the opportunity to spend money to buy items. Save at least 9,000 credits to pay off the debt in Chapter 9, otherwise you will have to start a new playthrough.

Hide the Llama - a fine of 7000. Hide the box - a fine of 8000. Didn't decide what to hide and ended up hiding nothing - a fine of 9000. Well, depending on the outcome of the sale of Lady Hellbender "monster" - the amount of the jackpot can be different - with a reserve (stole a lot or sold profitably) for any option or a minimum (stole little or sold unprofitably). And also on Oblivion you can spend everything or win in a thimblerig ... well, and the kids can steal 1000 if you click on the triangle near them. You can also remove a beacon from the merchant there or put homing guns on the ship. Then there may not be enough for the debt either. Therefore - the first time you make a debt, and New Game + you are already having fun on Oblivion at least in every attraction, well, or vice versa. And you can download the Chapter and go to the museum.

As of 10/14/2022, the first hint is not entirely correct - you don't need to start a new playthrough if you, like me, spent some money on Oblivion - and by the time of payment there was not enough.

You will only need to replay chapters 6 through 9. The catch is that if you select chapter 6 through the chapter menu, after completing it you will find yourself back in the chapter selection menu.

Luckily, in patch v1.05 the developers added a new feature — save rollback. If anyone wants to check it out for themselves — at the end there will be a link to the official reddit post from Eidos Montréal with screenshots and an explanation (in English).

I recommend leaving this trophy for last, the final one before platinum: to avoid problems with other collectible trophies, since the developers immediately warn that after using this method with a save rollback, some of the already found items may disappear from the Star Lord menu, but, nevertheless, will still be counted towards completing the trophies. Better to be safe than sorry!

And so, the method itself:

1) Go to the sixth chapter through the chapter selection. Put Milano on Oblivion. As soon as the controls appear, go to the pause menu. The "Save game" and "Load game" buttons are gray and inactive, everything is as it should be.

2) Press simultaneously + + . The "Save Game" button lights up and becomes active. Press it.

3) Select a save slot. I had only one main one with a completed game, I chose the second empty one. The developers also advise choosing either an empty one or any other one except the main one.
(the main save is easy to spot - it has a green check mark in the upper right corner)

4) After selecting the save slot, the game returns us to the main menu again. Click "Load game". The newly created save now has a green check mark in the corner, the game considers it the main one and, most importantly, will not throw us to the main menu after completing the chapter.
We load from it - and then run through the chapters until the moment of meeting with the World Consciousness and paying the fine.

P.s. Link to the official post from Eidos Montréal is here .

The amount of debt depends on what you hid at the beginning of the game. If you hide the llama, the debt will be only 7000

Leave 8000 and start over. Need 9000.

8000 was enough for me. I don't know what specific actions affect the difference in the fine size (apart from the cosmoLama).

If you sell Groot instead of Rocket and successfully negotiate through Drax, you will get 12,000 units, which is more than enough.

If you didn't pay the fine, like me, then in the chapter selection it's chapter 9. After clearing the enemy ships and defeating the boss, skip the dialogues and when they give you access to the panel for communication with the Nova ship, select crimes, committed crimes, pay the fine. Provided you perform certain actions described above at the beginning of the game, you will have enough funds to pay the fine. I needed 7000.

I hid the llama and the fine was still 9000. Therefore, the amount of the fine depends on many factors.
