[Oniria]

That will be your loss alone. Achievements or not, the game is more than worth a second, or third, or => x play through.

Why not set yourself some really challenging goals, screen shot each one when you achieve it and then, when complete, post your achievements on here. It might start a trend!

"Achievements" are a stupid, ridiculous concept entirely. Getting every "achievement" in a video game is not something any actual rational minded adult sees as an accomplishment. It's just a testament to how much time you spent in front of a screen with a particular set of images and sounds coming from it.

There were achievements in the 360 version, they just amounted to playing the game. Things you would get no matter what so long as you completed the major quest lines. If other people knowing you finished every guild in a video game is actually important to you, someone definitely failed you. Like Obiwan failing Anakin level of failure.

I have played this game before, on PS3.

Achievements are just a token of accomplishments in game, that's the definition of it. Reducing everything to "a set of images and sounds" or "something for people to know you finished X" shows more of you than it does of me. Enjoy your games your own way and don't tell people how to do so.

The first post is your answer, there are achievements built in a mod.

If it's just about accomplishing them, then the mod is adequate. If it's about an imaginary gold star next to your third party program profile that nobody in existence will look at or about showing off your leet Skillz to your two friends who will ever look at your achievements, then it's not about achieving anything at all.

Keep projecting your insecurities and telling people what to do to experience games. I'm sure you don't have any socials, cause based on your argument everything you post will be overlooked by your followers. Don't take pictures, enjoy life through the mere experience of your retina.

An achievement system also helps you remember your experience in the game, it's not just to show (your) two friends. The Steam achievement system helps you remember it alognside other games, through a profile. A mod is simply not efficient to do that, you would have to check those in game and not on your profile.

That's why there's an in-built achievement system on the platform: cause people value it.

can they add steam trading cards aswell please?

I would only be interested in achievements if it's free, not on Steam so I don't need to enable the overlay and challenging targets not pointless ones like 'congratulations! You have discovered 10 caves'.

Creating my own and using the journal or pen and paper to track progress is preferable to working from a list created by an unknown.

The game is almost 2 decades old, it's older than some of the gamers that even use Steam. The chances of it getting Steam achievements is ridiculously low outside of using mods to add your own sadly. Otherwise it would mostly come down to making your own personal challenges and using screenshots to document the completion of those challenges.

You can of course still request that achievements get added, I'm merely pointing out that you shouldn't get your hopes up that it will actually happen either.

yes, I understand that. But you never know, maybe with the upcoming game of the series someone considers it.

There are players asking if Oblivion would ever get remastered or re-released. Maybe if that happens, it would come with achievements then at least. I took a look at some of the console achievements way back in the day but even then the achievements were more of a requirement for it being on console than anything to actually achieve. They were just progress markers, and as much as I do enjoy achievements, I personally prefer the ones that actually encourage you to do new things in the game more than just play it at all. So hopefully if we do get achievements, it's a bit better of a list.

No wonder these two have Clown awards on their profile.

Getting some achievements in video games has been a greater and harder accomplishment than finishing college and buying an apartment. I am speaking from my experience, even if you are "rational minded" normie you can still enjoy some quality achievements in video games.

There will be quite a few people that will look at them and talk about them, that is what being a part of a community with similar interests is like, I do recommend to try and find likeminded individuals in your life, maybe then you will have less time to criticize other people interests.

no, achievements are stupid
