What's The Achievement For?

[CelestialLizzie]

There's only one achievement here, and it's hidden; however I did go to someone's page to see it and it's a test achievement with the letter E on the image. I'd assume it's a test for ending E, which I've gotten, so I'm wondering if either it's bugged (it is a test after all) or maaaaybe it's something else?

It's a dummy for future achievements.
However, this future never came and developer focused all his attention on Termina.
There's no way to get this achievement a legit way.

I think Miro will add achievements after he's finished working on Termina.

I'm eagerly waiting for achievements. I'll buy the games just to get familiar with them for when they come out, but I really hope he does. This game is perfect for achievement hunting, what with multiple runs, endings, variations of scenes. It will add a huge amount of replayability for someone like me (I would just get the S endings, maybe the A ending also and then be done if no cheevs).

I had a feeling that was the answer, it’s good to know, though.

i just want an achievment for players who tried making love to the girl, just to see how many people would get it by accident.

"accident"

Achievements are petty & pointless for 'hardcore' games, imo.
I'm glad both F&H titles and Don't Starve simply don't bother.
Just let your own decisions affect your dungeon run.

I think you shouldn't disregard achievements so bluntly even for these kinds of games.
Since I recently started doing achievement hunting I revisited some old games I already had played long ago to 100% them, and trying to get all the achievements most of the time either allowed me to experience some things that I never did before or sparked novelty from something I already thought there was nothing new to learn from.
Besides, if you don't care about achievements just don't actively seek them out, you lose nothing for having achievements be in the game anyway.
Imo the only game that I played so far that I think actively benefits from not having achievements is Undertale. Since the game is so focused in it's metanarrative of the importance of your actions and how you are not supposed to experience everything there is to experience, since that could lead to you doing bad things.
Then again, if developers don't add achievements to their games that's fine too, they cost time and effort to implement, which may be best invested in developing actual game experiences (like F&H Termina), and having to grind for unpolished or not well thought out achievements can be a pain too.
Btw sorry for rambling I kinda got carried away lol.

The creators are so lazy that instead putting achievements to the game they resigned and it's a Bug that isnt even fixed

Only one person is making the game and he is still working on FH2.

But completly deleting achievments isnt too hard, not talking about making it. If there was achievements i would have reason to do all endings in game :/

Achievements can be used as a guideline for deciding 'what do I do next?' in a game, sure. But I dislike the idea of them being expected or even necessary, I can choose and decide wihat to do for myself. If there is any designated 'to do' list, it's better in-game, so that completing it will always do something in-game, not be some meta list to make myself feel special compared to other gamers.

I'm indifferent about earning game achievements, but I dislike people pestering and expecting every dev for every game to have achievements, too. It's just another example of gamers needing everything spelled out for them nowadays. I prefer to achieve something because I got curious and powerful enough to try, not because a list suggested I do it.

Okay, let me rephrase that then.
Achievements are for braindead insecure extroverts,
that need to prove they're special.
