I found that games lasted a lot longer, but I also got frustrated when the achievement seemed impossible ?did achievements change the way your pla ...
I love achievements. Whenever I play my wii, I feel like I'm missing something. I love the added replay value they bring, they make games so much more interesting. did achievements change the way your pla ...
yup! it gives me more reason to play a game that I wouldn't normally play
I think achievements are a great idea. it adds replay value to a lot of my games :D
they have actually,before there were no achievements i'd only probaly play a game through once,but now with the achievements it gives me a reason to play the game again and get the rest of the achievements:)
yep it gives my games more replay value
I love them. They give you reasons to keep playing and they last forever and gives you reason to have played the game in the first place.
I think of achievements as little side quests. It kind of helps give my games replay value as well. Although sometimes I have to remind myself to play for fun.There are times when I'll find myself trying to base the decision of what I play by what achievements are the easiest to get.
Yeah.
Nope. They're completely meaningless. You get no actual rewards for getting them, so why should I bother? I just play the game like its meant to be played.Seems like a cheap way to increase replay value, if you ask me. Games should have good replay value because of in-game rewards and fun gameplay, not some meaningless box popping up saying you've acheived something.
It's a great idea indeed. But I don't care that much about them and they don't change the way I play.

But now that they're giving you Avatar Rewards in games for achieving things, does that change your outlook because it changes your facts. There are now rewards for getting them.
I don't see why people care so much about them and just replay a game to get them. They are absolutely pointless. Maybe if they actually gave me something. People always brag about them online and say they are so good because of them then I completely destroy them. I agree that it is a cheap way to increase replay value. Cheap like in resident evil 5 where you couldn't aim and move was a cheap way to increase difficulty.
[QUOTE=''sammydageek'']I found that games lasted a lot longer, [/QUOTE]me too. Unfortuently, sometimes, when im playing a game with no achievments, i have to remind myself that im playing it because i love video games, not for some score.
I can play games for fun, but I find that achievements give me some guidance on things to do to maximize my game experience.

And if its something ridiculous like having to get 1000/1000, then I wont bother at all.

It just add rewards. Clothes for your avatar for playing a game? Better than having to pay money for it and it increase the options.
