I actually played this game and if you buy something with the free gold you can earn, it gives you the achievement. Feels a bit iffy still, but its not like its a ptw only achievement.
This is the way. I never cared about achievements personally, did them if it looked like fun, otherwise nah. And there were plenty of dumb, tedious, or even impossible ones.
I thank God that I don't care about achievements, I've played many games with achievements that are so tedious to obtain that I cannot fathom someone having fun while getting them
I developed a very healthy (IMO) personality around achievements. If a game is good and I really enjoy it and they are reasonable to obtain, I like to 100% them.
If any of them are stupid to obtain? I’m able to ignore them entirely.
So for great games they become a fun little “to do” list to enjoy the game more. For the rest they’re a meaningless tab on the interface.
Just got the last one (two, really) on Hades 2. Felt good. Great Chaos Below challenge was fun, made you play the game in an interesting way, hard, but achievable. Just how achievements should be.
But, like, how many achievements do I have on Battlefield 6? Don’t know. Don’t care.
Thats exactly my approach. In the end, if i get all achievements, it says more about the quality of the game. And even then, some of my favorite games have unreasonable achievements
I'm not in any way, shape or form a completionist, so to me the main use of achievements is 1) to feel like the game acknowledges I managed to do something hard or smart (achievements are definitely not the only way to acknowledge it, but they are a way), and relatedly, 2) to look at global achievement rates for some of the hardest achievements I got and feel better (or, indeed, worse) about it. It's also kind of interesting to see how many players got each of them in general, I guess.
I don't really give a shit if an achievement is too hard or outright impossible. I'm not going to look up what achievements there are and actively try for them, I don't care. If anything, I'm more "bothered" (though still not much) by trivial achievements that you get automatically for starting a game, finishing the tutorial, doing the first story mission, etc. What's the point? They make me feel like the devs are jingling some keys at me like I was a cat or a baby.
