Title: Achievements
Post by: HHC on July 06, 2011, 06:22 PM
Do you care about them? I know I don't.

The problem is that many games have waaaay too much of them. I start the game, play the level and after killing 3 enemies I already get the first one: a 'Rookie Sniper Award' or something like that. Reached the next level, oh hey, here's another trophy for ya! And it goes on like that  :-[

And when I finish the game I really can't be arsed to collect all of them. Neither can I be bothered to pick up every single treasure that is hidden inside the game.  :-X

I dunno, maybe I'm just lazy.

Does any of you focus on the achievement trophies?

And I am an achievement whore, HHC.  I have all the achievements for about 50 games on xbox, my gaming profile is here:

I go out of my way to get all the achievements, its like crack to me.  It's like my first time playing worms, I had to get gold medals on all of the challenges before i went online.

I think I'd care more about achievements if they didn't have achievements for basically starting the game up :)

Achievements are yet another disease that ruined the gaming I loved. Pics related

I guess what also makes me not care is the fact I've hardly come past level 5 in most games. I guess achievements are nicer for people who play the game a zillion times and have already done the basic mission.


Those are some very impressive stats Walrus. You got a life outside worms/gaming?  :o

its actually not that amazing in retrospect.  I've had the console since launch (2005) so 6 years of whoring.  I have 45,000 gamerscore, there are many people on that site that have 400,000+ gamerscore.  i have more time lately because im going to school full time, and thats what ive basically been doing instead of worms ;) heres the sites leader:

I rest my case. You don't need to be the god of the worldwide ranks, but completely finishing 50 games is worthy of praise IMO. I don't have a single game fully finished  ???

Btw, lol at?:

I totally agree man, probably why I stuck to WA, a game released in 1999, and i've been addicted proudly since July 1999, what's even better is every year we are STILL discovering new things and abilities especially with all the updates, no other game I think, literally, has this amount of dedication and never-ending self-made fun.

I got World at War, im a 10th prestige + in that game, and im still in first prestige for Black Ops.  Got rid of MW2 a long time ago.  Im getting MW3 for sure though.

I love you Tenori, your screens are lovely. :]

Anyway, about achievements, I always finish a game 101% (Jak & Daxter corrupted me).
Well, only if the game worth it for sure...

If you don't want to be bored, just get cycled game (you end and restart with same stuff & xp in the same game a little bit harder everytime).

But over all, The Longest Journey and Point&Click games ftw ! xP
