Kayinworks - I Irrationally Hate RetroAchievements (kayin.moe)

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?

What an entertaining read. I disagree with about 95% of what I read, but knowingly unhinged rants about inconsequential things are usually fun, and I learned today that a sizable portion of people have an active dislike towards achievements. Most of my gaming friends try to 100% the games they really like.
