    Speaking from experience: in many cases, they’re cliche because project managers, producers, and execs insist on writing achievement names & descriptions instead of letting the writer(s) do it.

    It’s happened on almost every game I’ve worked on.

    They get a kick out of having a tangible contribution to the finished product, and in most cases seem to believe they’re actually being funny and original. It’s easier to just let them have it.

      Shout out to Split Fiction for getting the "Unironically making a 'The cake is a lie' reference in the year of the Lord 2025" award

          Yeah, I'm really not getting the joke here. It just seems like they are listing normal game achievements, which I would probably ignore anyway.

            Just reading that made me laugh. Absolutely fantastic abuse of every available medium.

              Seeing achievements that actually are hard to achieve and aren't grindy brings me joy

              Yeah, I wish they were only that, instead of "collect all 1000 mcguffins" or "defeat a boss with 1 life left."

                I haven't seen one in a while but I was so fucking sick of seeing bigger they are harder they fall references in the early days of achievements

                  I like that the "open game" archivments are mostly at like 70%

                  It gives a point of reference for the others. Though it should probably just be the base for calculating the other percentages.

                    Yeah, though I don't really like the ones that can be missed by playing the game too well, like the "die to boss x times".

                      I swear some games just load them up at the start so it looks like you were playing for longer when others see you have "SO MANY ACHIEVABLES"

                        I know no one cares but on the off chance that someone does, the picture is from this song.

                        It's a song made basically entirely of Japanese onomatopoeias. It's brought me so much joy I'd love if it makes one other person feel that way.
