I'm confused why he would put so much time into it. I think SyntheticMan played something like 10 hours tops?

I might have to put Shadows platinum on ice for now. I need to sketch these "legendary" animals that only appear during 1 of the 4 seasons. The problem is you can't change the seasons manually.

Good grief man. I never understood the point of achievements or trophies in the first place. Ok sometimes it's funny or satisfying to get a unique achievement, but I could never see myself trying to get all the imaginary points in a game I like. Why would that even be a consideration for a game you hate? That goes beyond trying to be a thorough reviewer. Nobody gives a shit about this game and even those of us laughing about it have moved on already.

As a side note I heard Endymion was one of the grifters initially praising KCD2 - but to his credit when he got further into the game he admitted how woke it was, so we can still trust his opinions on that at least.

The trophies must hit some kind of psychological itch on people. Like loot boxes or some shit. You happen to be immune to it.

Or he’s just old. I played video games before achievements existed. When they are introduced, I couldn’t imagine anyone caring about them at all. Fast forward a couple decades and some people are basing their entire identity around securing arbitrarily defined “achievements” in video games. We used to do weird whacky stuff in games just for the fun of it - just as pure ace raw creative expression. Now even “drawing outside the lines” is meticulously predicted and codified behavior.

One of the earliest iterations with Mass Effect on the 360, which showed them as literal roguelike upgrades to all future games you played. Halo 3 used it as a metric towards unlocking armor.

So it was just another version of unlockables at the time it came out, but like all things Microsoft they just lazily let it rot into the lowest form possible.

Mass Effect

Seems to track with when I started seeing it in some other games I played around that time in 2007. WoW added achievements part way through TBC which came out in 2007 so that looks to be the time of infection.
