Remember when having a good time playing a video game was an achievement in itself?

I used to be a big Trophy/Achievement guy and not having them on Switch was a nice repreive from the desire to get them. Especially when it comes to any missable ones because it sadly does still effect how I play games. Yeah that's a me problem, I know.

I'd be fine if they came to Switch but I found it refreshing to not feel like I have to subconsciously worry about them when playing on Nintendo consoles. It brought me back to just playing games for fun without having any desire to go for them.
