For me, it would be completing 100-Man Brawl in Smash Bros. Brawl. Never felt so much satisfied killing all those fucking cheating Alloys.
 
Finally beating Malenia in Elden Ring after about a week of trying.

Recently, I was playing Yakuza 0 and triggered a story boss without realizing I was on about 10-15% health and had forgotten to buy any healing items. The boss wasn't all that hard, but it definitely raised the tension and it felt pretty good beating them first try

For me it was beating Ming in NFS Most Wanted the first time. I was 11 at the time and can remember the adrenaline I felt after idk how many tries. Sadly on this playthrough I accidentally turned my ps2 off while saving after I beat JV, I can also remember the sadness once I realized the save file was corrupted lol. I've finished this game at least 8 times and now everything feels easy, but as a kid the first experience with some games are unique.
 
I don't know if this one will count since it was online; but back in the Super Street Fighter IV days I used to be a bit of an online warrior and I had this one match where I was paired with someone who was very much above my skill level at the time, but I managed to pull the comeback of the century against him and I've never popped off harder than that moment. I wish I still had the footage of it so I could try and post it here.

For non-online stuff, probably beating the Lingering Will in Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix.
 
By accomplishing something means it should be something hard to do? if so, nothing, I don't like things that are hard by their nature in videogames because I don't like wasting time repeating the same over and over, I lose interest as I am not competitive, so I don't feel what you call satisfaction on achieving it. If I were paid for it it would be very different.

If by accomplishing something is a reference of doing something that I wanted to do since long time ago and finally doing it, I could say when I finished Vagrant Story or Athena Awakening from Ordinary Life. Two games I wished for long to play and finish but never found the right moment until not so long ago :)

I don't care to beat hard just to beat hard, but it's fun to beat something fun despite it's hard so you gotta push it beyond the limits!!! For me fun is always worth it no matter what and for fun I can do anything and my only limitation is laws of physics and my lifetime!!!! lolol
 
I remember when I finally beat Driving Mission 34 on Gran Turismo 4 the very first time over 15 years ago. I've never been more happier when I finally crossed that finish line first in a silver sports boat on sports tires at the Nurburgring, after so many failed attempts & waiting for eons to start.

For me it was beating the Demon of Hatred in Sekiro. I have been stuck doing this bossfight for two days.
 
Years ago when I was getting my shit stomped by Seymour Flux but managed to whittle his health down and kill him with Kimahri's self-destruct when I only had one turn left before my entire party was wiped. That's the only time Kimahri came in handy for me.

Abyss Watchers fight in Dark Souls III when I used all my Estus but managed to fumble through the menu and pop a Divine Blessing to heal before narrowly beating the final form.

My best accomplishment so far is still Platinum'd Bloodborne, Dark Souls 1 PTDE/2 SotFS/3, Sekiro, Elden Ring, and Demon's Souls (PS3). The most fun Platinum is Bloodborne (Chalice Dungeon is genuinely fun side content out of all Plat run here), and Demon's Souls is the most miserable.

Finishing Hard Mode in Armored Core: for Answer is also not an easy task, as the last Hard Mode mission is 1v5 scenario, you cannot let your AP be below 50% (or 30%), and all of them have extremely good coordination. "Occupation of Arteria Carpals" is the mission.

I never beat Armored Core 4 Hard Mode because FromSoftware forgot to balance the S-Rank requirement, and some of the easy mission in Hard Mode is straight up harder than the hardest mission. In Normal "Swarm of Red Eyes" you basically Tower Defense from drone with 0 risk getting damage, you just need to let no Red Eyes drone get past, and you get S-Rank. But in Hard Mode, enemies spawn and any single hit void your S-Rank immediately.

I've done Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon all S-Rank, but it's honestly the easiest out of all Armored Core when it comes to S-Rank requirement. Armored Core 2 and Last Raven have stricter requirement, which basically Time Attack (beat it fast).

Kneeling-Only Challenge in Armored Core (PS1), the least challenging Armored Core run. But in Project Phantasma this challenge is miserable because of Phantasma's HP and possibly DEF is too high.

Beating any ending in Armored Core: Last Raven Portable is achievement by itself, but S-Rank Zinaida ending is borderline insanity. It's gauntlet with single bar of AP, and then you pit against Infinite EN bullshit. The PS2 version is fine.
 
I don't like Fortnite and wouldn't care about now but back then in Season 4 (Chapter 1), I gotten my shining example of not giving up:
Getting a Victory Royale in a 4-man Battle Royale (with Jetpacks and Explosives, I don't remember what the mode was called though), solo...when my own team was completely gone early in the game.

I have thought about leaving once they died in game (I was scared), but I stuck myself to the challenge, thinking back about a person who got me my first Victory Royale in Season 3 and got me my favorite parasol: The Paper Parasol.

Though, I have to be honest: I was hiding a lot till late in the game and I was shaking in my boots the entire time.

I used to have footage of that moment, and...probably (I don't think I remember), I had shared it on my past YT channel, which is long gone but overtime, I lost the footage.
 
Beating MGS2 on extreme. I was stuck entering the Solidus fight with a sliver of health and had to perfect him.
Hell yeah. The only MGS I've extreme'd is Snake Eater and lemme tell ya the Fury was not a pleasant experience. How was the fight with all the RAYs on extreme? I remember that being something of a headache.
 
Back when I beat "I Wanna be the Guy" back in eight grade more than a decade ago. I think my death count on the game was on triple digits almost four so finally beating it was such a release.
