I woke up this morning and found that Assassin's Creed Unity, Black Flag, and Syndicate all have steam achievements

I don't know about anyone else, but i'm excited. Black Flag and Unity are some of my Favorite games of All time and i'd always wanted to 100% them, but not being able to showcase it has made it a bit hard to find the motivation. What do other people think?

Games were better before achievements. Admit it, you've played a game in way that you actively don't enjoy or long after you've lost interest, just to pop some worthless achievement.

I understand a few studios take the time to make achievements humorous or worthwhile to the actual game your playing, but that's just another reminder that most studios don't.

The only few achievements I ever actually went for were a few in HoI4 and even then it was only two or three.
