I'm fine with missing them in that situation. I can play a game and forget all about it without seeing it on my steam list with 99% of the achievements done except "lol play through the game again, only this time complete it in under 5 hours!"

As a matter of a fact, yes I am. If a game has no achievements, I simply pirate it instead. If a game has achievements that require multiple playthroughs, I again, pirate them instead.

I like to 100% games on my first playthrough. If the achievements are going to pretend that I didn't do that, then fuck them and fuck the devs, I'll play their game for free.

I can do all of that while punishing developers for making idiotic decisions like putting in achievements that require me to play through the game again, thus messing with my clean as fuck looking 100% achievements bar since I ain't replaying shit, regardless of how much I enjoy it.

I say this as somebody who has all the time in the world too. I have far too many games to play to be wasting my time going through each game multiple times just to get that last achievement.

>>381997394
Yes, but you said you would pirate games without achievements.

Fucking why?

>>381996776
dark souls 3 is the most recent example I can think of, light a bonfire cheevo, ember cheevo, kill the first boss cheevo all in less than half an hour

Team enjoys trophies and achievements but no autistic about it checking in. If done right, they add replay value. I only go for them in games I love.

>being a slave to cheevos

>>381997495
Because I like achievements, providing they don't require me to replay the game to get all of them.

Autism.

>>381997641

Do you really think that anyone but you gives a shit about what you've 100%d

There's a number of reasons.
I have a ton of friends and we all regularly check each others profiles to see what new cheevos we've unlocked.
Another reason is that it is a gateway to allowing you to speak freely about a games flaws without people claiming you haven't played the game.
You can't talk about stuff like difficulty without people asking if you've completed a game.

>>381998663

No. I don't really play multiplayer games, other than fighting games.

I like achievements for difficult games. Like shmups and stuff. It shows the world you 1cc'd the game or whatever. Don't care about them in multiplayer ones.

Getting mixed signals here

>>381999017
>>381999142
I'm afraid I don't see what you're trying to imply. Being a friendless recluse is just a meme, right?

The whole point of achievements is twofold. First of all they give you closure and satisfaction that you've finished a game in its entirety.
Second of all they are used to show off to your friends.

What's the problem here?

>>381999251
OP here, that wasn't me. I think he was just answering your question for the sake of it.

>>381995518
Achievements came around when I began to dislike the overall culture amongst game enthusiasts. A fairly insignificant thing. Woes of being born before the 1990's I guess.

>>381999031
I'm not angry at all. And why default to insinuating a person is emotional and therefore their argument is invalid? If there are people who care about other people's achievements good on you, it still does not change the fact that you see playing games as a way to flaunt your dick and not because you enjoy them.

>>381999354
Achievements were originally used by deva to artificially add things to do to a game. Now they're just ubiquitous, and personally I think games are worse off because of it.

>>381999430
>born before 1990s

>>381999494

You defaulted to assuming that nobody cares about my achievements. Why is it okay for you but not me?

>it still does not change the fact that you see playing games as a way to flaunt your dick and not because you enjoy them.
Why not both?

>>381999654
When you pirate games because they don't have achievements, that's when it is wrong. Not because the game sucks, not because you want the game for free, not because you want to demo it, but because it doesn't have fucking cheevos.

>>381999606
but it's for people 18 and up?

>>381999757
They're easy to implement. If a developer is too lazy to go through with adding them then they probably aren't very confident in their game as a whole.

>>381999782
If you're pushing close to 30 and still come here.. There's no hope for you. You will never change and start living.

>>381998879

>mushihimesama ultra (the aki+akka one)

impressive
good job anon

>>381999654
Aight you right about the first part. I made an assumption of your circumstances so you made an assumption of me.

Why not both? Because you have openly admitted that you only buy games with single playthroughs so you can 100% them. That isn't to enjoy it, that is to flaunt your dick. If you really enjoyed a game you would buy it regardless of how easy or difficult to 100%, or regardless of how many playthroughs it might take, as a way to support the developer.

>>381999782
Barbie dolls is 3 and up. Does that mean grown men should be playing with them?

>>381999879

>>381999942
You're dealing with two different shitposters, anon

>>381999879
No, that is a very warped way of viewing this. If it hasn't occurred to you already, many people, including most of this thread, do not care about achievements. So it would be wrong to assume no developer thinks this way as well. It has nothing to do with confidence. And even if a developer wasn't confident in there game, how does that detract from the actual quality of the game?

>>382000108

>>381995518

If anything they're more confident in their game because they don't need that extra shallow layer to draw people in. Plenty of spergs play games primarily for cheevos and trading cards.

>>381999942
>If you really enjoyed a game you would buy it regardless of how easy or difficult to 100%, or regardless of how many playthroughs it might take, as a way to support the developer.
Nope. I will never play through a game twice. I have plenty of games I've thoroughly enjoyed which I wouldn't play again. It's a waste of time.

I'm not going to allow some achievement ruin what should have been a perfect run of a game. It's a blemish on my record.

>>382000032
Just as icing is important to the cake, so are achievements to the game. They are both equally important.

The fact that /v/ falls for the most obvious satire bait that was clearly made to critic piratefags' poor justifications for stealing really drives it home that I'm sharing this board with literal autists.

>>382001342
>What if it's a short game built for replayability, like a roguelike, beat em up or a shmup?
I don't play games like that but I guess it's okay since it's part of their design.
Games that take a significant amount of time to beat though (anything past 20 hours) should not be asking you to replay the game for a single achievement you couldn't otherwise obtain.

>>382001424
Playing through a massive game all over again for an achievement is absurd and completely out of the realm of being okay.
