As someone who has trophy and achievement hunted for nearly 10 years, it just seems baffling how little people play their games. Like how the fuck do you just play through a game once and then move on? Most games are literally 5-20 hours at most unless you play shitty JRPG grindfests. You honestly just play through a game, do absolutely nothing else, don't learn its tricks or mechanics in any way, don't see the extra or challenges, don't encounter any difficulties or obstacles, and beat it in a couple days before just going to the next cheap thrill for you to just breeze through and repeat again?
I just struggle to understand it. I would get so fucking bored of games if not trophies and achievements, there would be absolutely nothing to play aside from multiplayer games.
Normal people do trophy and achievement hunting in real life

Only people with autistic tendancies want to replay a game 3 times and do end gaming grinding for some pixel trophies.

Devastating

I'm not 12 anymore user, I don't have time to play through games repeatedly.
Anthony Anderson
Imagine those trophies were not stipulated by the game and only in your mind. There you go. You now have what ever achievements you wanted to obtain.
Angel Watson
Got 'em.

To us, you're the one playing games incorrectly. Most achievement requirements are just time wasters. High IQ people can see everything the game has to offer without needing 10 playthroughs.

>steam doesnt show real life achievements valve please fix
There are so many games out there, and I don't want to spend too much time on games that I won't end up loving

Fucking rekt

Vast majority of games especially AAA are disposable trash. The ones that aren't I spend more time on but who the fuck cares about cheevos lmao. When they correspond with the challenges you'd want to do yourself it's cool but usually there's a couple or a few cheevos that are actual good challenges and dozens more that are complete wastes of time. It's all about your own goals and self imposed challenges. Theres single player games I spent 600 hours playing yet still didn't bother getting all cheevos in

If you mean self-improvement and travelling and experiencing what life has to offer, that appeals to the same personality type as trophies/achievements. Normal people don't do this, they just work dead-end jobs and occasionally go on vacation, usually to see family in a place they have already been and known.
Is this one guy posting all these pictures? Based regardless
I probably only play about 25-30 hours a week and can still 100% 50-75 games a year (talking quality games and difficult games, I have never played a game simply for easy trophies/achievements)

>t. losers working dead-end jobs who hate their lives Trophy hunting is not a time commitment, it is a mentality shift. It is a movement from cheap, shallow hedonistic thrills to applying yourself, overcoming challenges, learning about yourself, trying new things, seeing from a different perspective, and meeting new people. This carries over into other areas of life and you start to eat healthy, exercise, have a healthy social life, good fashion sense, focus on your education and career, etc.

alright faggot if minecraft had an achievement for cutting 10'000 blocks of diamonds would you do it?
Jose Murphy
Epic joke there bro
Gabriel Rogers
>10 years you see, you have only ever known shit games whos developers have tried to put the gameplay that should have been there to start with in by making you to repeat playthroughs to collect achievements that are not even a part of the actual game.
Achievements ruined video games by giving them artificial replay ability
Aiden Martinez
Cool that you have the drive to finish so many games, but I don't. I don't even play 50 games a year
William Stewart
It's the opposite for me, I have far less time for games now so I just end up playing a few games I love for months instead of jumping from one game to the next. It doesn't have anything to do with the amount of time available but your own preferences

I have a huge backlog of games to play and once I beat a game I've played it enough of it for now and don't feel like repeating everything, when I replay games it's years after I first played them so it doesn't feel like repeating something I just did.
Benjamin Scott
No, I don't play Minecraft and if a game has very tedious or time consuming trophies/achievements then I usually just won't bother.
That's interesting, I am the complete opposite. I have never replayed a single game aside from going back to an oldish (like 5 years) multiplayer game for a few matches. I have played remasters/remakes that have significant differences or new content but I can count the number of times I have done that on one hand.
