Current Events > Games that have an achievement for getting all the achivevements

(+) Yeah! (+)

Fuck off with that. I have no rational reason for it to annoy me but I don't care. It's dumb.

When you get an achievement for starting the game

When they have achievements for playing a game with a dev online.
Devs never play their own game.

most versions i've seen have been like "play with a dev, or someone else who has this achivement"

That's like every game on PlayStation

Yeah, this.

You only get the Platinum for getting the rest of the trophies.

I legit decided NOT to buy Outward for this sort of bullshit. Even though I was actually interested in it.

On xbox it gives you like 1 gs for creating a character, absolutely mandatory right after title screen. Where's the counterpart one to offset it? Oh, just beat the game 3 times on the same character with NG and NG+. Yeah, ok.

I don't think I've ever seen this but it sounds like a fun idea

just watch how it spreads (or not) around the playerbase

PlayStation has no gaem

one/several of the Halo games have them
i think TF2 has them
a quick google says Borderlands has them
i think Red Dead Redemption 1 has it
i believe first time i noticed it was Red Faction Guerilla
think the Gears of War series does it atleast once

I'm honestly of the opinion that games that do that use them for analytics more than it is for player benefit.

Funnily enough, the Smash Bros series has that.

It is pretty staggering how little some games are played, judging by those early achievement percentages on Xbox.

Supraland actually made a blog post about this sort of achievement. They used them as a way to track how much engagement players had with their game, and where the biggest dropoffs were.

There are lots of optional achievements, but I made sure the are mandatory ones frequently. That way I can see where people are most likely to drop out.

lol. My GS has been an odd number since literal day one because the first game I ever played on 360 was Blacksite: Area 51 which had an achievement worth, like, 14 and some other random one worth 16 which I never got.

That's pretty much why I changed my mind about it. Because you know that somewhere along the line they decided "how can we piss people off and try to make them play our game longer than they actually want?" It was totally intentional.

Oh and then it turned out to be merely ok at best.

Infinite undiscovery did something similar lol

I remember being surprised at the % completed of story achievements when l replayed Fallout 3.
The first one was at 100%.
Leaving the vault was at 95%.
The next one was just above 65%.
The last one was just above 40%.

Life became so much simpler once I stopped hunting the platinum trophies. However, my wallet also became much lighter since I was buying games more frequently after that. Didnt have arbitrary trophies pacing my purchases.

ooh, I forgot all about this. how do you find it?

I would prefer if achievements were actually achievements. Like, things worth noting.

But then we wouldn't have that immaculate Portal 2 bit.

I had my profile set to private so I have to wait for it to update

my game completion rate says it's only 20% though so it's not looking great

if it bothers you so much don't get the achievement.

lmao, you're the only other person i've met who's bothered by that besides me. i found out the hard way and did end up 100%ing it to get the last 9.

by the way, the definitive version has normal increments of 5 if you're still interested in it. although i have to warn you, it's janky, tedious, and wants to waste as much of your time as it can. you might just want to wait for the sequel which recently got announced

Nah it's fine. I was interested in it in 2019, I actually forget it exists until the gamerscore debacle is brought to memory. They also had a backpack glitch.

I can't figure out how to get that steam summary but I finally got to this

https://steamdb.info/calculator/76561197993456085/?cc=us

but according to that I haven't even played 28% of my games once >_>

and I feel like I should really be above lvl 13, but don't know how to increase that

lol I like seeing those milestone achievements. Beating chapter 1 is always like "50% of players achieved this". Like really? That many people bought a game and didn't even bother playing it a little bit?

I just played that jedi survivor game on game pass, and noticed 40% of players got the achievement for finishing the game. so 60% lost interest? ouch.

I never finished the first one. It just stole a bunch of stuff from better games and stuck them together. It felt like a very EA game.

It's a ball unironically or the watchmaker is in this game, what an ice

TBF this is something you can track with literally every game that has story achievements. The vast majority have less than 50% of players finishing the game.
