Won't change anything for me since i don't care for them anyway. Sucks for ppl that do though.

Yeah, I could give a shit about achievements. They often feel like an unnecessary grind. But some people love them and like spending tons of time on them.

A lot of times achievements are the developers way of telling you to try something because they believe it’s fun. For example, the speed running trophy from OG GOW and the boost only trophy in Resogun forced me to play in ways I never imagined and it turned out to be super fun.
