So this is basically just a list of the achievements you might be missing, in chapter and checkpoint order. The quickest way for every achievement is to invite your friend, select start a new journey, select the chapter and checkpoint, pick the right role, do the puzzle until you get your achievement, then quit out to main menu and repeat to skip the parts when you're together and there's no different achievement.

The roles this time around are less defined, but still matter when loading checkpoints, so I'll be specifying which to pick when it's relevant.


Now onto the achievements.

Invite a friend to play We Were Here Forever!
Role: N/A
Self-evident, the one who didn't host should host this time. You can get away with only inviting, however for us, Entered the Ruins of Rockbury was only obtained by the host when entering Ch4 so I'd recommend switching hosts the second time around or you'll have to do an extra checkpoint later. I'll mention this again later in the guide.

The part where you're going between large dials with symbols in a cage.

Role: Any, be host
Entered the Ruins of Rockbury
It's technically in Ch4 however you need to do the part on the lift as you're entering, so go hand in your disc to the chapel, come back and use the lift. As mentioned above only the host obtained this for us so if you didn't switch hosts, you'll have to redo The Cache with the other player hosting. Once you get it you can just quit out and load next checkpoint.
