Survival

There are many, many ways to get these achievements. Below are tips and techniques for obtaining them. I recommend that you follow them, although after a couple of playthroughs, you can try some other paths.

What is not an achievement
"Everyone survived!"

All playable characters must survive
Note: Pirates don't count, two of them die anyway, and the third one (Junior) is not important for the achievement. Soldiers in the prologue don't count either.

Tip 1: Don't fail QTEs and heartbeat minigames.

Tip 2: Strange as it may seem, don't pick up weapons like knives, etc., and if you do, don't use them (even on monsters).

Tip 3: Have Julia decompress after your dive.

Tip 4: It is advisable that Konrad stay on the yacht, it will be easier this way.

Tip 5: Don't give out your coordinates on the radio or name the ship.

Tip 6: The distributor cap must not be destroyed.

Tip 7: When meeting Junior, don't be silent and don't deny the existence of the fog.

Not a single survivor
"No one survived!"

Kill all playable characters.
There is an ending in which the military arrive and kill everyone - this is the easiest way. Follow the "Ship Name" achievement and then give the military your coordinates and the name of the ship. Then make it so that the distributor cap is destroyed by failing the QTE at the end. The survivors by that time will wander around the ship.
In the scene after the credits, the military will arrive and shoot everyone.
Note: It's best not to let Conrad escape on the boat, as most likely in this case, in the scene after the credits, Conrad sails and saves everyone before the arrival of the military.

Devitel
"Only women survived!"

For this achievement, Fliss and Julia must survive, while Brad, Alex and Conrad must die.

  • ➤Make sure Julia decompresses after the dive.
  • ➤Kill Konrad by failing a QTE while running from Pretty Woman in the chapter of the same name.
  • Let Brad go down to the engine room with Julia. When you meet Junior, don't answer him and he will shoot Brad.
  • ➤When after that Alex goes in search of the cover of the distributor, stab him with a knife.

I understand you guys
Only the men survived!

Alex, Brad and Conrad must survive.

  • You can kill Fliss in the following ways: as Brad, don't pick up the gas mask, but make sure you pick up the wrench. Then, playing as Fliss, complete the Ritual chapter by going outside. After she returns to the hall, Brad will kill her if you fail the QTE. Or, if Brad picked up a gas mask, and Fliss went outside at the end of the Ritual chapter, then later in the Pressure chapter there will be an opportunity to kill her when the hold is flooded.
  • You can kill Julia in the following ways: do not decompress after the dive and drink alcohol. She will die in the post-credits scene. Or, upon meeting with Junior, deny the existence of the fog, and he will shoot her.
 

Modes

Independence
"Single story is over"

Actually, complete the game in single player mode with any outcome.

Like in that movie about the ship
"The movie party story is over"

Complete the game in Movie Party mode with any outcome. You can complete this achievement alone.

Ability to work together
"Joint history is over"

Complete the game in co-op with any outcome. You will need a second person. Both will receive an Achievement.

Characteristics of character

He is my brother
"Brad's Feature Revealed: Envy"

At the beginning of the game, during the dialogue between Alex and Brad, choose the following dialogue options:
OFFENSIVE -> ACCUSATION

If you don't mind, even more so
"Conrad Feature Revealed: Joking"

When you get on the ship, and the pirates lock you all in the cabin, select the option in the dialogue:
Abandoned Ship CONFIDENCE. To do this, Konrad must not escape on the boat or be killed in the boat.

The coolest
"Alex's Trait Discovered: Aggression"

After you escape from the cabin and reach the kitchen, find a knife there and during the dialogue, select the option: DECISION “Suddenly you need it”.

Yes, captain!
"Fliss Trait Unlocked: Arrogance"

Fliss and Brad must survive the meeting in the dance hall in the Ritual chapter and get to know each other, the easiest way to do this is to find a gas mask while playing as Brad, and Fliss must go outside to air out. After that, in the "Pressure" chapter, reach the place where they will need to climb up. Climb in, examine the room, then examine the hole in the floor and choose the following options in the dialogue: ANXIETY "You go" -> FEAR "I won't go" -> Back to the hole -> WAITING "Come on already"

Remember who signs the checks
"Julia's Feature Revealed: Capriciousness"

I unlocked this achievement by playing Curator's Cut as Julia at the moment they were locked in the cabin. After you move the box, Alex will offer to knock out the grate, to which Julia should answer: OFFENSIVE "You're an alpha male". If you know a way to unlock this achievement in the canonical version, write in the comments.

 
 

Relationships

lovers
"Alex and Julia have the closest possible relationship"

In dialogues between Alex and Julia, always follow your heart. The following actions will also contribute to obtaining this achievement: at the beginning of the game, in the dialogue between Alex and Brad, advise Alex to follow his instincts so that he proposes to Julia and agree to marry him; during the dive, Alex will ask you not to climb into a narrow pipe for a map, agree; when playing as Alex you find a knife in the kitchen, do not take it with you; when you find a cabinet with intestines in the same kitchen, let Julia take a look at them.

Middle-brother
"Alex and Brad have the closest possible relationship"

You can get the achievement during their first joint dialogue in cooperative mode. You and your partner must choose the following options:

Alex: CHEERING
Brad: ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Brad: AWESOME
Alex: SUPPORT
Brad: EMpathy

To get this achievement in solo mode, maintain friendly relations between the brothers, towards the end of the game, get the achievement. It is important to let Konrad escape on the boat, or kill him in it, otherwise he will interfere with the achievement.

Do you know what's best?
"Conrad and Fliss have the closest possible relationship"

Can be obtained by playing in co-op mode, or in Curator's Cut. You can get for the first couple of dialogues between the characters. Choose from the following options:

Chapter: Wreck
Conrad: SUPPORT
Then approach Fliss and speak to her:
Conrad: EMPASSION
Conrad: FLIRT
Conrad: FLIRT

Next, walk around the boat, talk to the characters to advance the scripts further. After that you will be able to talk to Fliss again
Conrad: FRIENDLY
Conrad: OPTIMISM

Chapter: Uninvited guests
Fliss: SERENITY
Fliss: SELF-CONFIDENCE
Fliss: APPROVAL

Go talk to Brad, then you can go back and talk to Conrad again.
Fliss: CALM
Fliss: FLRITH
Fliss: ROMANCE

When approaching a pirate boat:
Fleece: VOLTAGE
Fliss: CONCERN
Fliss: CONCERN
Fliss: FUN

Additionally when playing solo in Curator's Cut:
When Fliss puts out the brazier, choose an option: RESTRAINT (Not applicable in co-op mode).

 
 

Call of the Heart and Voice of the Mind

trust your gut
"All decisions are made at the call of the heart"

Weigh all the pros and cons
"All decisions are made according to the voice of reason"

Each choice in the dialogues has either an icon of a heart or brains, the same goes for actions. It is necessary to complete the game once, choosing only options with a heart, or only with brains

Sometimes it happens that when choosing an option in a dialogue or action, both options have a heart icon or both have a brain icon. In this case, if the option you need is not in the dialogue, choose silence, and when choosing an action, wait for the time to run out.

 

Secrets

For a dollar he told me his secrets
"25 Secrets Found!"

Secrets! Secrets! Conspiracies!
"Found all the secrets!"

Secrets are various books and notes scattered throughout the levels. Examine each note from two sides, open each book and turn the pages. You can find out which secrets you have already collected in the secrets menu. In fact, they are not hidden in any way, but are scattered right in your path, it’s hard to walk past them and not notice, because. they are marked by flickering, no special effort is required to find them. Check every cabin and every corner.

Selecting a chapter can help you collect the secrets you missed, just choose the "Create New Save" option each time rather than "Overwrite". Secrets are counted immediately and apply to all saves, as soon as you pick up the secret, you can exit the chapter.

There are 50 of them in total. In the canonical story, you cannot collect all of them alone, you will have to play either in cooperative mode or go through an additional Curator's Cut, because. in these modes, alternative story branches will become available to you.

 

Paintings

"Found all the paintings"

At the beginning of the game, during the dialogue between Alex and Brad, when Alex asks you for advice on making an important decision, advise Alex to follow his instincts. Then after the dive, he will propose to Julia. Julia must agree by choosing the call of the heart 2 times in a row in the dialogues.

Name of the ship

Name of the ship
"Ship Name Revealed"

To get this achievement, you first need to find two specific secrets:

Chapter: "Danny", Secret #41: Medan Hat - You can find this secret right after Dany (one of the pirates) leads Fliss and notices the silhouette of a sitting person. As he gets closer he realizes it's just a pile of rocks in a cap. Then he immediately throws this cap on the floor. Fliss should inspect this cap.

Chapter: Distress Signal Secret #42: Logbook - as soon as you enter the captain's cabin, immediately to the right of the entrance there will be a ship's log. Open it, turn the page.

During the dialogue on the radio, state your coordinates and the name of the ship. If you don't find those 2 secrets, you won't have the option to name the ship during the radio dialogue.

 
 
Everything has changed again!

"Junior calmed down"

In the Depths chapter, take your rebreather with you. Olsen must not burn you or you will lose the rebreather. Next, when you meet Junior, choose the following answers: CURIOSITY -> ANXIETY -> DESPAIR -> GRAB THE BARREL
The heroes will put a rebreather on him and the achievement is yours.

 
 
Let's just go fast

Let's just go fast
"Successfully completed 10 QTEs in a row"

Complete 10 QTEs in a row without failing a single one and the achievement is yours. In the process of execution, characters, chapters may change, it does not matter. If you fail the QTE, the countdown will start again. If you're having trouble completing this achievement, disable the QTE timer in the settings.

 
 

Conclusion

In general, there should not be any special problems with obtaining achievements, they are all quite easy. The problem is that in order to get the most part, you will have to replay the game several times (at least 5 or even 6). If you have any questions, you can ask them in the comments.
