Achievement hate is so forced
Sure but you know what's more forced?
Retro games used to have actually cool shit to unlock for your time. Drops, hidden weapons. They didn’t need achievements so… why is Reddit doing this? Ad revenue?
>>736476978It takes advantage of neurotic players and makes games worse.
Why do people like achievements? Does the ding sound give you a dopamine hit? I just find them annoying and turn them off.
>>736476978Is this the thread?

>>736477140It’s nice on consoles because you get to look back and have some nostalgia when you go through them. PS4/5 actually take screenshots of the achievements so sometimes I’ll actually go look at them and see the stats for my party and shit. Other than that, number go up
>>736477249>It’s nice on consoles because you get to look back and have some nostalgia when you go through them.This would be handy if I had Alzheimer's disease, but I have a functioning memory.
>>736477289Good for you, but I will definitely start forgetting major plot points of any media after 3 years or so, whether it be vidya or books or movies
>>736477336Try reading more, this will only get worse as you age if you don't exercise your brain.
This website is cancer for autistic retards like one of my friendsHe gets the pokemon red achievementsThen he gets all the blue achievements because it's a separate setThen the site makes a new set that works on red and blue at the same timeThen they split them again years later back to two different sets and he plays it all over againThis happens with all the famous games it just has people stuck replaying the same games over and over again, literally never experiencing anything made past like the year 2002Don't think I'm against old games, I just beat RE3 for the 4th day in a row this week, but my friend literally just goes for gay fake achievements and won't play anything else
>>736477361You can posture all you want, but it's pretty silly to pretend that you can remember every single story beat of a game you played 20 years agoBut of course, you're just a kid having a laugh so you didn't even play any games 20 years ago. No more (you)s because any futher LARPing about your memory will only be bait
>>736477418I can, as can most people with an IQ over 100. Tell me, if I asked you to picture an apple in your head, what would you see?
>>736477406i mastered Yellow then Crystal and moved to Emerald. i'm not touching Red or Blue until a couple years down the line when i actually feel like playing gen 1 again. maybe he just has fun using different teams or something?
>>736476978There's really no reason for this thread to be up 24/7.
>>736477406Maybe those people were just gonna replay the same games anyway? I replayed shit from my childhood like 10 times over until I told myself to stop being a retardnigger and actually play new games
Pokemon Clover
>>736477479we don't talk about Clover
>>736476978This is entirely self-inflicted. If you don't want to use RA, don't.
>>736477406That's not that different from me going back to play all the gens I missed in my 30s. All the games are pretty much the same anywayFun to build up your team naturally instead of looking up the strongest mons of a game beforehandManchild gonna manchild, whether it be replaying the kiddie shit or playing the kiddie shit we missed
Grandmaster status?For me, 18
>>736477479Why is that the game they pretend they have morals for?
>>736476978sure if you're just getting steam, psn or xbox achievements it's whatever. but if you're using a gay ass social media site moderated by trannies and bug chasers, it's cringe and ugly
>>736477925they're scared of us
On Ra no headdress?
>>736476978Achievements are fine when they're actual achievements and not just shitty busy work. But most achievements are just shitty busy work or just playing a game regularly instead of an excuse to make up fun challenge run ideas or getting players to play a game outside of the norm.
>>736476978Unlike playing games you don't want to play with meaningless, uninventive rulesets made by retards to earn virtual points that don't matter in a community of trannies.
>>736476978Purchase an advertisement
selling retards on telemetry
>>736480532I don't view RA as surveillance though I could be wrong and they could be sending all the data to Nintendo. Really I don't care though because it's still a better service than NSO and free
I'm gonna miss out on the Rosalina mastery badge because video games are too hard. Go on without me. *dies*
>>736477418How is giving good advice "posturing" you fucking retard?
>>736477079>Retro games used to have actually cool shit to unlock for your time. Drops, hidden weaponsAchievements have no impact on this. Most of the time you unlock shit for getting achievements like in Halo 3.Either way it's a retarded thing to bring up because RA doesn't replace unlockables with achievements.
>>736476978Clover hate is so forced
>>736476978Get a real personality other that "the achievements guy". You're getting engagement groomed by corporations.
>>736482421The only engagement grooming I will be doing is for my future wife who is currently underage
>>736482479Excuse my previous comment and keep on being based, buddy.
>>736477201No, go away you piece of shit garbage bird
I don't particularly have a problem with achievements but I do have a problem with unofficial achievements made up by autismos with miniscule quality control just so they can say "yeah, I made that achievement"
i already have steam, whats the point of ts?
>>736476978They're pretty neat when you do something cool and the game acknowledges it with an achievement popup.Besides that it's just cancer that leads to brainlet zoomers thinking you have to 100% a game to truly beat it.
Buy an ad.
>>736477418You don't even remember whether achievements existed 20 years ago without googling it.
>>736479479Ackchualley that's what most of RAs sets strive for, atleast with already popular games, I fondly remember the lttp set with inventive challenges and showing you all the weirdest stuff, like you can turn one chicken in the whole game into a woman.Excited for a set for some game only you played? Tough luck, play through it once and then beat a shitty timerun here is your badge I made in MSpaint
I already hate missables in long ass RPGs, this site multiplied that 10 fold.
>>736482646most of the games aren't on Steam
>>736483291valid criticism, it's the one genre where there's always some dumb missables that i cba to keep track ofoutside of RPGs it's rare that i have complaints with a set though
>>736479614>Unlike playing games you don't want to play>faggot can't comprehend that there are actually people on /v/ who play video games instead of just coming here to bitch like he does
>>736483496so im supposed to get excited to grind for achievements using a literal who third party website?
>>736484776No, if it doesn't excite you then it's not for you
just got my 18th pointmight start The Last Story next, never played it beforecan't be as bad as FFXVI surely
>>736476978Mei
>look at RAs achievements>just speedrunner shit
>>736487012I have found that they're inspired by YouTube videos like "Can you collect every coin in Mario Galaxy"? But I don't really mind desu. It's still an interesting challenge.
>>736487012>>736487215base sets are closer to official cheevossubsets are bonus challenges that can have unlimited levels of autismlike get every shiny pokemon, get a respectable speedrun time, beat FF1 with all job combinations, etc.
>>736477140I like creating a new objective within the game after beating/mastering it, it's like an expansion of the game outside itselfI only do it for games i really like, but sometimes some achievement is some arbitrary bullshit that turns me off from trying to 100% it (beat the entire game in ultragodlike mode in under 2 hours without dying or resetting)
>he hasn't mastered CoD 4 with a Wiimote
