| Skratchy said: I think they're stubborn, but they really should embrace it, and possibly build off it. Wouldn't it be cool if getting so many "trophies" or "Nintendo Points", whatever they want to call them, actually MEANT something? Like you could use the points to unlock rewards, or amiibo related stuff, or get stuff added to your account for discounts? I don't know, something more than just bragging rights... |
I do not know much about Achievements. Do you get more than bragging rights for them?
EDIT:
Looking into it a little more. Let's take Halo 5 and Mario Kart 8 as examples.
Halo 5 has 65 achievements and earn a total of 1000 gamerscore. At least half of them are very simple like completeing a mission, spectate a game or change your Spartan's gear. http://www.ign.com/wikis/halo-5-guardians/Achievements
Mario Kart has more than 65 unlockables. Most of them comes from completeing simple tasks. Each gives you a new kart or part. Additionaly there are unlockable modes, alternate ending credits and stamps. http://www.ign.com/wikis/mario-kart-8/Unlockables
The thing that differs between achievements and unlockables, as far as I can see, is that achievements give you a number to brag about and unlockables gives you some kind of visual gratification (gears, stamps etc).
