Once again people, STOP IT!

[LetsPlayVeteran]

Stop using cheat devices to unlock your achievements and play it like a proper gamer is supposed to. Look at yourselves, you all know very well you didn't earn all of that less than a few hours of playing it just so you can do a "FIRST" If it was in charge, i would have banned all of you for using a cheat devices. Seriously, that's the equivalent of using aimbot. It's sad and shameful, STOP IT! Cheaters never prosper! - 19th century quote

pretty hard to do mate when the main store page literally gives cheat DLCs

Steam achievements are worthless. Why does this matter so much to you?

Even Valve doesn't care about achievements. That's why Steam makes absolutely no attempt to verify what application is actually sending an unlock command.

[Draconiano]

Honestly, it's steam's fault for not doing something about it, there will always be cheaters. But steam don't care. At least achievement cheater are not hurting anyone, as you said, there are worse cheaters like people who use aimbot, wallhack, speedhack, etc.

Why do you care in the least what other people do on a single player game? I find the fact that you're sitting around looking at other people's achievements at all to be weird, especially for a game that as you say, released hours ago. I never get this line of thought, what possible reason can you have to care about this other than being silly.

[phosTR]

lol, who cares?

[Cookie]

Achievements have no value on steam.
So it's a coin with
1) young minded people: "they are useless, wth you doing?!"
and
2) common sense one: "they are useless, why should i care?"

[SunsetAmethyst]

Why do you care what others do in a singleplayer game? Not that i would use them but i also would not care either as it does not affect me.

Cheat items also come with the more expensive editions, so of course people are going to use them.

[dante_87]

Dude, why worry about someone else's achievements? It has no baring on your own. Do you, have fun with the games you play, and ignore everyone else.

Seriously, there's no reason to care at all. You're just driving yourself mad.

[blaque_czar]

its a single player game.
You sound utterly ridiculous.
I'm going to cheat engine the mess out of this game when trainers drop, so spare me
your righteous anger about something so trivial and inconsequential to YOUR actual life and well being.

Why do you care about it? I usually complain about cheat when it harm other people, that's not the case here...

gamer moment

[ZveRyūga]

Why do you care? It isn't a multiplayer, not even a hardcore game to brag about achievements. Just let people have their fun.

PS: Man with VAC ban talking about cheaters... LMAO

[D's Journal]

You ain't my daddy.

[daggoth1408]

Imagine giving a ♥♥♥♥ about what other people do in a single player game, which literally sells so called cheat items. Let people play how they want to play in a single player game, its not harming you or ruining your experience. Besides i find it hella ironic and hypocritical you are telling people to not cheat when you yourself have a VAC ban on your account.

Your rage against this is mainly highlighting your own personality flaws.

I think I saw you, or at least another NPC with the same dialogue in Bravely Default 2 hub saying the same thing.

While I encourage you to get over this because having other peoples actions damage your ego is an accident waiting to happen, I will provide you with some comfort.

When a game is first released to the masses, the steam achievements are only counting 5-10 test accounts, ones used to make sure the steam systems are working correctly, it says "96% of players have have this achievement" for say "play 100 hours" or clearly impossible tasks in a short time.

That does not mean that 96% of players are script kiddies and you need to go on a moral crusade to save gaming. in a day or so, the actual real players data will be filtered into the system and those % will be far more accurate (Not perfect as some do cheat, but you shouldn't care)




TL:DR - The achievement system does not update stats in real time, in the first couple days of a games release all you see is the results from a few tests making sure that the game works within steams systems, which includes checking if achievements trigger. it's "95% of players have this" but it means 19/20 test accounts have this.
