I think achievements are great (and many Wii games actually have some sort of system in place)...but shouldn't a game compel you to play it simply because it's either fun or challenging?
I'm not knocking you or your opinion...I just think that something has been lost this generation. Case in point....some people will play the worst games ever created just for the achievement points. At that point it's almost like the achievement points become its own game...whereby the difficulty ramps up based on the dullness or boredom that is inflicted upon you just to earn a few more points. Genius. |
I completely accept my opinion is actually quite stupid, I hate it. I also remember the old days, but when given the choice of playing a great game like Super Mario Galaxy 2 or a mediocre game with achievements like Lego Harry Potter with achievements, I'll probably choose achievements.
I love the thrill of a great game and the satisfaction of beating game, but I love seeing something that extends to all my games get improved even more.
