How to unlock the All Aboared! achievement in NieR - Definitive Guide
This is the Boar Riding achievement. Shortly after being able to run around the first village and chat with people, you will get a side-quest called "Boar Hunt" from an old man on the left side as you enter the market district in the first town. This quest sends you to kill a wild boar that is near the entrance to the Aerie in the Northern Plains. It's a pretty beastly foe- if it manages to catch or wing you with its charge attack it will take off the majority of your lifebar and it has a ton of health. The best way to kill it is to just get in a small area like the tight area leading toward the Aerie gate and keep dodging. It will slam into walls and knock itself silly- take any opportunity when it falls over to use the "attack enemy on the ground" technique (block+X) as this will do a large amount of damage. Play it safe- its charge can hit you even if you are hitting it from the side at times.
Once you kill it, loot it and return to the old man and he will mention having a boar horn in your possession will allow you to ride boars. Now, anytime you go into several different areas such as the northern plains, there will be boars laying on the ground which you can mount with B and drive around- charge with A and bank left and right with right and left triggers. To get the achievement you must ride a boar for 5minutes straight. If you bump in to a rock or something or get winged by an enemy while riding the boar you will very likely get knocked off and the timer will reset, so simply get on your boar, find a peaceful area with no aggressive enemies around and go get a snack. It is boaring, but after 5min the achievement will pop.

Defeat the Boar during the sidequests and it will drop an item that lets you ride it. Just sit on the boar for 5 minutes while idling and this trophy will pop.
To ride a Boar you must first complete the side-quest called Boar Hunt! To activate the quest, talk to the old man sitting on a bench next to the item merchant in your village. He will tell you about a Boar that has been rampaging around the Northern Plains and will ask you to kill it.
The boar is located in the Northern Plains, near the entrance to the Aerie. Attack the Boar and hide behind one of the big rocks, the boar will charge, smash into the rock and collapse for a few seconds. Use this opportunity to attack, rinse and repeat until the Boar is defeated. Take the Boar's Tusk back to the old man and you will gain the ability to ride Boar's.
Afterwards, when you see a Boar lying in the Plains, press to mount upon it and ride around for five minutes. You can also choose not move at all to earn the trophy, but make sure you are in a secure area first! Shades will stop at nothing to knock you off.
