Yeah, doing the same task six hundred times more that you need is so hardcore. Not. Most games have such retarded, pointless, and boring conditions for 100% (which doesn't even reward you with anything useful) that there's absolutely no reason to bother.
There's a difference between completing a challenging post-game dungeon and killing 1000 lv1 pigs. The latter doesn't make you hardcore, even if completing the dungeon doesn't give any achievements.

he means because of how people on PSN don't hunt trophies in general and that creates rarity

like PS+ games often make 0.1% trophies because people just booted it and didn't play

white knight chronicles

it fails in other categories though, the platinum for the first game also takes 500-600+ hours to get... and should be near impossible to get now (unless there's some broken strategy that's been found), forced to play solo now that the servers are gone and while the game lets you solo online quests, they're too hard and skills alone doesn't really you do that much as you're typically always knocked down and can't really evade it

Its not because you're a tool, its because games are among the most corporate forms of entertainment now, which means as wide an audience as possible, which means little to no challenge.

I would rather play more games than spend 100+ hours doing menial tasks to say that I played a game "to completion".
I'll do all the normal stuff for a game I like (beat the whole game, see all endings, beat all optional bosses, etc), but I'd rather move on to something new than grind out achievements that don't have some sort of purpose/fun other than saying "I did this"

complete chapter / start game is good to have imo

it's a nice way to make a simple tracker to see people progression (both for friends and global)

That fucking port though.
I got the achievement for getting the good end without actually getting the one for killing the last boss. The fact that there are two of those for literally the same thing is baffling in the first place.

Bad achievements should be any multiplayer one in general. They're usually absurd requirements that require heavy boosting to ever reach reasonably, idiotic things like 10,000 kills or top of the leaderboard, and they make you play in insanely idiotic ways to get some of them. Not to mention when the sever inevitably dies years later it's impossible to finish your list.

God this place is getting younger. Trophies used to be universally hated on this board. Now we have twitter ecelebs, achievements threads, and lets play watchers. This place is no different than reddit.
