steam achievements unlocked at same time automatically.
I was playing Rising Storm: Vietnam when I noticed a bunch of achievements being unlocked at the same time, and when I went to look at my achievements for the game, they were all unlocked. All 132 achievements.

I've only owned the game for a few days now, so I find this Extremely weird.

Have anyone else experienced this bug? If so do you guys have a way to undo it because I quite like getting achievements on my own merits.

I'd suggest asking in the game's hub. Did you ever download Steam Achievement Manager (SAM)?

Ok will try that, thank you. And no I haven't downloaded SAM. What is that?

It does exactly what happens there, though I have never used it so I don't know what the interface or files might be like. (When you see folks that have like, 6 hours in a game and 100% of the achievements all the same "unlocked x day and y time" that's SAM.)

Achievements can glitch, but I've never seen them do it to that regard.

Some games unlock them in a weird way. I think it was Binding of Isaac back in the day for me that didn't unlock anything while I was playing, but afterwards (or was it next time I booted it up) a number unlocked at the same time, all for the previous play session, obviously.

But yes, asking in the game's hub will be your best bet for answers.

Did you happen to buy your PC used?

I have multiple Steam accounts and had some games completed to 100% and when I re-purchased them on this account trying to get them again, they unlocked to 100% at the moment of game launch.

This obviously doesn't happen to all games, only those that use local save files. It does suck, but nothing we can do about it, unless you download SAM to lock the achievements again, Which I don't trust that program so I wouldn't do it.
