Achievements in PoE
|
If done like achievements in some steam games then sure im all for it, achievements as in titles though are pointless
they should be a game lengthener not a hey look at me title |

achievements to me are like challenges or minigames within the game itself..
kill a boss without taking dammage do this without x or y while z is in play... you dont have to do the achievement... its not really a part of the game... and it adds a sense of play to it. its like a friend showing up telling you "do what you want, kill zombies....but hey... have you tried killing 10 of them under 3 seconds? I DID...almost didnt make it...you try |

I'm something of a stat junkie. The more meaningful statistics that the game keeps track of, the happier I'll be. I want to know how I'm doing in an objective quantifiable way.
If I were a dev working on the game, I'd be keeping track of absolutely every little thing that I could possibly track. Not only is the information interesting, but it's necessary for balancing and improving the game. More on the topic of achievements. I don't really care. Forum Sheriff

" Diablo 3 does something like this in that you get bonus XP for racking up streaks of this kind. That said, if you're going to fool around with achievements here, they may as well coincide with things players are going to end up doing anyway because they confer actual ingame benefits (Saints Row 2 comes to mind). Though it can be argued that a medal gallery (see: Valkyria Chronicles, Koei's Warship Gunner titles) should be quite enough. White Knight of the Order of Mihoshi Enthusiasts

Achievements seem to have pros and cons from what I've read in this thread yet the cons don't really seem to be cons and the pros, if it's what a player wants, seems to be a pro.
Personally I don't really care for them as they generally don't add anything to a character besides a history of what has been accomplished. Bragging rights or simply the novelty of grabbing up hard-to-do achievements seem to be the pros. The fact that, character strength-wise, they do nothing is possibly a con, but I can't see how this would bother someone as they could be ignored. As for the idea that achievements only attempt to add depth to a game that is lacking... I think this might be said for some games, but PoE is not yet completed, so yes... I guess it is lacking. The introduction of achievements doesn't seem to attempt to disguise this fact. In short I guess I'd have more of a live and let live philosophy. Some people want it, the people that don't can simply ignore it, so why not? give us it DanAbnormal All generalizations are false.
