Were achievements removed?

[tasselfoot]

The store page says there are 17 achievements. I beat the game, and found at least a few of what I believe are the secrets... yet earned 0 achievements. On top of this, the page within my Steam Library shows that the game does not have achievements.

Just curious, as an achievement hunter. And because I'd love to have an incentive to play the game again, already, to hunt for whatever I missed.

Achievements seem to be bugged. I'm 70% through the game, and I've only unlocked one achievement.

I am in the same boat as you. I just played all the way through it, and got no achievements.

I restarted Steam. I restarted the game. I replayed the ending (load 100% and finish), and got one achievement. So yes, there certainly are achievements. Did they work? No. Do they work now? At least one does.

The area before the final gate has a few small statues that appear for.. finding things off the beaten path. I got maybe half of them. Loading a save warns me that I may lose some progress (that's bad!), so I am reluctant to go hunting for achievements now.

EDIT: Also, the descriptions for many of the achievements are the same. That seems wrong.

I didn't get a single achievement but I have finished the game apart from one of the collectible things. Waiting for the patch that fixes it so I know I'm not crazy.

We hadn't heard anything about achievements not unlocking until this thread. Some people are definitely unlocking all of them, so not totally sure what's going on, but we're investigating. Thanks for reporting.

Thank you! Been holding out for my 100% completion time because I don't know if I've missed anything major! Hopefully it's a quick fix.

Thanks Sam! Based on the achievement list... appears there should be 6 progress-based and 11 secret ancestors. Having beaten the game + found 3-4 ancestors... I should have earned 9 or 10, and I earned 0. Appreciate you looking into the problem!

Achievements dont work for me

[Cat O'Fay]

The same for me. Maybe this will help. Yesterday, before streaming this game, I started a new game to make sure everything works good. Then I started another new game, abandoned 2% save game, and did not get any achievement so far. By the way, I didn't see the achievements section on the game page in my Steam application yesterday, but today it appeared, and maybe the achievements will work for me (but I haven't checked yet).

Same boat. Achievements do not appear, neither in library nor in game, I cannot even check them nor see them.

Any update on achievements not showing up ?

[Ozgarden]

So restarting Steam fixed it. But I got my first achievement late in the game so everything I've done so far does not count and I'll have to restart a new playthrough.

[Eliakoh]

Yep there is definitely something with the achievements, as I unlocked my first ancestor achievement after the 4rth I freed. Pretty sure i'm also missing "mandatory" achievements based on my progression. I also noticed that there were no achievements on Steam yesterday when the game was released, I remember wondering about it on the Steam overlay, in-game, where the "achievements" button was greyed, but today I can see them. Maybe the achievements were added a bit later after the release, that would explain a lot.

I also played the entire game and got 0 achievements. I then replayed the entire game, and still got no achievements... I love this game but this is really starting to get a little frustrating :/

[neoneka]

3 hours in. 0 achievements :(

[tasselfoot]

So, to update on this... I attempted to "Start New Game"... except it's not actually a new game, it's continuing your existing save file from 0%, and as such, nothing triggers still. There is also no way, in-game, to truly delete and restart your save file from scratch...

What would be great is:
a) achievements are checked/triggers upon booting the game. This is something that every game should really be doing, since weird stuff can happen and achievements can fail to trigger in the best of times.
b) have the ability to delete your save file and start fresh, somewhere in the Options menu
