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 totally get you. There are games that are fun and easy to 100% also there are games that are challenging and rewarding to 100% and then there are games that are so annoying that you are better off just leaving them 'unfinished'.

I completed both Dark Souls 1 and 2 and both had that multiple playthrough requirement but I will not make myself run those steps in DS3 for 7-8 hours just to get those proofs of concord kept. That's just... no.

Past me was much more serious completing games but now days I want to experience many games so I can't be stuck with just one title. Time for entertainment is limited I'm afraid.
