How to unlock the Big game hunter achievement in Risen - Definitive Guide

This will be probably your last achievement as it was mine. This game tracks kills, gold and other stats through multiple saves so its possible to save/reload cheese it like some other achievements in the game. What i did was setting the game to easy have a good weapon and try to gather a lot of enemies around you and then save. Kill the enemies,load your save and repeat.

This is for the XBOX one version then? Your solution? I ask because it seems to work a lot like the 360 version. And of course I'm ot complaining but to imagine a remaster and them not patching this out is a little odd, welcome, but odd.

yes it works like the 360 version they never patched anything out as the game is more just a port then a remaster. I played it on pc too and even on that version the exploits never got patched

Wow, well, good to know. Now when it's on sale, I'll buy it. $30 is too much for a port and to not actually own.
Thank you for the reply.

Yeah I kept looking for it and became concerned that it was digital only once I couldn't find it. So yup, definitely waiting for a sale.
If a digital title, containing no manual, case, artwork or shipping is more than $15, I'm out.
Not like I don't have 100 other games sitting on my shelf to get to anyway

I can't reload my save because when I push the star button, the game clowe by itself. I'm not the only thay this problem occur (it does the sake thing when I die).

No fix since launch... I play the game with stress and always waiting for the auto save to pop...

The tracking of amount of beasts killed works similar to other achievements, where the number is independent of your game state. You could kill the Vulture on the beach where you start 2000 times over by way of reloading a game, if you felt a bit crazy. Not the best approach though. If on your first playtrhough you kill everything available, the guesstimate of total beasts killed is around 1000-1200. Two full playthroughs would land you this achievement more or less, not counting any reloads.

Beast slayer was unlocked for me at the end of chapter 1 on my first playthrough, and Big game hunter unlocked about 3/4 into chapter 1 on my second playthrough. That involved several areas of the game and monsters killed twice by reloading after some Ashbeast love, and so your mileage may vary. If you still don't have this after two playthroughs, know that Chapter 1 contains the majority of the monsters available if you have to start a new game and run around a bit.
