What's the deal with the achievements on xbox one? How does the system work? I just got a whole bunch of Wolfenstein TNO achievements glitch on me, didn't even get one for beating the game, what the actual fuck? I've never seen anything like it in 10 years of xbox live! You're supposed to improve things, not make it worse ffs.
It's weird, because some games just do that. It must be more about the game having errors in the code triggering it's unlocking, because I 100%ed TNO no problem, yet Uncharted gave my friend the second to last and last trophy for finding treasure but not the first bronze one, as well as not unlocking the game complete trophy the first time he played through.

Some people say that the way the achievements work has changed. Like, they're not actually in the game but it's more like an xbox app and it involves xbox live syncing and verifying and stuff. I have no idea, just hoping someone can answer this. I'm an achievement whore and this is really grinding my gears...
Achievements & Trophies annoy me.
Anyone else wish you could just disable them entirely? I know you can hide the notifications, I want them to not exist.

It's a nice concept but I do get annoyed at how occupied I get with them.
Why would you care about achievements?
If you are older than 16 and still care about achievements than you should have other things on your mind. Preferably gunshot residue and lead fragments.

You mean the guy that wants underage faggots to leave /v/?
this is /v/ now

What's "underage" about it? Somehow achievements are childish and gaming in general isn't?

It's not bragging though, it's proving.

Gaming is a fun hobby, collecting fictional score from achievements that you're genuinely proud of and boast about is pathetic (unless you're a kid then it's fine, but gtfo /v/ if you are)

There's nothing "fictional" about it. If you're good at a game, you have the achievement to prove it. I guess you're butthurt because you suck at games.

I really really hope you're not an adult.

Nice non-answer.
Achievements are fine if it is about doing something weird in the game like easter eggs or something. Also when you beat the game in the hardest way possible.
I hate it when it is something you would normally do in the game anyway and the achievement spoils future plot. Oh, and online multiplayer achievements. Fuck them.
>>345264273
Because achievements are just meaningless, unnecessary awards tacked on to further incentivize actually playing through the game and doing certain things. They add nothing to the game besides giving you an extra pat on the back.
They were unneeded in the time before achievements existed, but now there are some people who care about achievements first and foremost over being interested in just playing the game itself. And that's dumb

>They add nothing to the game besides giving you an extra pat on the back.
Not true, they add replay value and they are a way to quantify your gaming skills.
I was a dedicated completionist long before achievements existed. And anyway, I don't see why you're so against this particular kind of gratification. Getting an achievement is no different than getting an ending cutscene or a "you win" and exp at the end of a multiplayer match. It's just another type of goal.

Why doesn't this use wireless grounds?
Oh fuck, forget I said that. Wrong timeline.
