Sharing because Kayin's talk about achievements made me think about why do I even accept them in games at all so I disabled them in Steam (the only way to do this is by disabling the whole overlay =_=) and found that I don't miss them at all.

What's you opinion on RetroAchievements, and achievements in general?

I had to delete my RetroAchievements account because it sucks the joy out of gaming. When achievements don't exist I just happily play a game until I'm finished with it but when they are there I NEED to get them all.
