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.

You've just made me sadder than you can imagine

project managers, producers, and execs

I can't wait for all these ideas guys to use more AI to make stuff...

It's kinda sad.

Part 9: The Part Where He Kills You

[-] rtxn@lemmy.world 35 points 1 month ago

"I think this is the part where he kills us."

[-] known@discuss.tchncs.de 24 points 1 month ago

"Hello! This is the part where I kill you!"

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.

What a great tune to start my day to. Thanks for sharing!

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

Yes, you're also charming.

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

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".

[-] Object@sh.itjust.works 22 points 1 month ago

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

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 month ago

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

[-] Little8Lost@lemmy.world 20 points 1 month ago

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

[-] SnortsGarlicPowder@lemmy.zip 17 points 1 month ago

I just haven't got around ooh a sale!

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

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

[-] QueenHawlSera@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 month ago

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"
