What's the point of cheevos?

What's the point of cheevos?

marketing data

This. Now it's just there to see who actually gets around to doing what in a game.

It's really just giving the player something extra to do. They give people an incentive to explore games' side content and improve their own skill at the game.

It's a way for companies to track how far into the game people got and what content they completed

What achievement did she unlock?

Fuck 100 guys in one week.

indicators used to fine tune the game to the point where they can cut out the most content for the least cost

the photoshop cheevo

what's the point of videogames?

The "Make a stupid face and take a picture" achievement.

Trophies > cheevos >>>> dogshit >> ass cancer > steam cheevos

If that were true, publishers wouldn't ever put money into cinematic games. Just look at any game with "complete chapter x" achievements and check out the achievement % for completing the final chapter. It's fucking miniscule. Red Dead Redemption, for instance, had less than 10% of its playerbase complete it.

fpbp

This. For some reason I want to collect all my trophies but on steam I don't give a shit about the achievements

Primarily this, but they're also there to give an extra feeling of "I did it!" when you do something in a video game. Not to mention your gamerscore on Xbox being a sort of bragging right.

It's not my fault RDR is boring as fuck.

She looks JUST LIKE this crazy bitch that contacted me on Skype. Same bust size, type of face, the nose ring, everything.

Maybe that's why ME3 had such a shitty end, no budget to tie everything together so the head writers should pulled some bullshit together in 5 mins because he knew barely anyone would finish the game anyway.

>he thinks those pretty girls that send him friend requests are actually pretty girls

they're a good measure of completion in games that don't give stats in the menus for people like myself

pat on the head

"well done faggot"

Isn't that the Lady cosplayer?

Mhmm, look at the left arm/boob line. Totally warped and flat. I still like her tiddies.

You think she's pretty? Shit nigger, God no. All I wanted was for her to go away. She kept on adding me over and over asking me why I unfriended her. Eventually just blocked her.

To give retards a false sense of accomplishment.
And this

That makes sense
You must be a giant faggot

Thirsty virgins need not apply

NO ITS SO THEY KNOW WHERE THEY CAN CUT CORNERS ON THE NEXT GAME BY CUTTING CONTENT LIKE THE CONTENT MOST PEOPLE DONT FINISH

I collect all the cheivs in games where it makes since. For example BB vs DS3

Bloodborne
>kill all bosses
>do all activities
>get plat

Dark souls 3
>replay the game 3 times
>collect the same rings 3 times
>farm pvp or pve for days collecting materials for a single spell, 3 fucking times
fuck no, these arent accomplishments, these are the devs way to increase replay value for retards who "need" trophies

>since
sense

sorry, dont know why I mix words up

So who is this? A youtuber, a cosplayer, or some crossdresser?

I assumed it was OPs mother.
Let me check my camera

who is the girl? source?

Gotta have my 'cheeves!

that's why.

...

Moniicow, scared off the internet years for nude leaks.

Bad shop on OP but her tits are basically as huge.

Anyone who hates on achievements is just a contrarian faggot. There's nothing wrong with them at all.

to cater to our shortening attention spans and need for instant gratification. and

OP's picture is photoshopped.

Disposable entertainment.

Why do people care about trophies? They came out after achievements, not all games have them because of that, and they're ugly. I honestly thought the cheevo fad died out a few years after the 360 came out. It perplexes me that people still give a fuck about them.

They are still huge and I would fuck her any given moment.

>uncocked

Why would they care about who reached the end?

All a marketer needs to care about is the initial sale and dlc potential.

Even if the customer sells it back to gamestop, they already made their money.

you guys are really desperate

Its mostly consolefags that care about cheevos

Anyone that uses the term cheevos is probably an oldfag

So what's the big difference between getting a trophy and finishing a game?

Because if

casuals can feel like accomplished something when they didn't

But muh conspiracy theories

Kinda like beating a game then

By this logic, you should make only 80% of the movie just in case nobody watches past what you showed in the trailer.

Are you fucking retarded? Plus there are even games that become VERY mediocre halfway though, which is the way you WOULD actually do that.

why do you think most games are only 8 hours long now

>Uncocked

you dont get anything except for a percentage

source on these cow tits.

Yeah I miss the 90s when games were only 4 hours long

cow tits are disgusting

nothing unless it unlocks something I want in game
>tfw you got all the achievements on halo 3 for the katana and it just sits on your back
I thought it would at least change your melee animation or instead of the normal elite sword you would have the katana instead when you pick up the sword weapon

...

>nude leaks

uhh..wut?
she was already doing nude photoshoots.

...

>looks good in that pose
>look at her tumblr
>is almost a hambeast in almost other
Magic.

I almost posted that DFC cake from Sup Forums that anons have been making threads about lately

>scared off the internet years for nude leaks.
where are the leaks?

>implying Sup Forums is not a cowtit zone

>implying implications

Then how come I can only find like 3 pics at most?

The great thing about the 360 isn't beating the games, it's showing everyone online that I did.

oldfag...
have only been out since 2005.
2005 oldflag.

they're just retarded, like the people that call their in-game avatars "toons"

gamerscore is the only cheevo system i ever liked.

I had an xbox 360 the holiday it was released and ended up with a 50,000 gamerscore by the time i traded it for a ps3 in like 2011-2013

now i have pc. neither sony or steam have a worthy cheevo system. I understand why steam doesn't do it since anyone can just cheat for them, but trophies are retarded.

to cut development costs and time.

why make the singleplayer campaign so long if 0.001% players only played a small amount of it... or even make it at all

>Pretending you are cool and drowning in women

This place is fucking middle school, Goddamn

I gobble up achievements, but I really don't spend too much time on them. I usually play a game for one quick go through then call it a day. I literally only have one single game with a full 1k.

You know, the game every cheevo fgt has under their belt.

What's the point of beating a game? Or playing video games? Or doing anything in general?

Kill time.

to stave off the never ending desire to lynch myself

I like achievements fine but I'm not one of those autists who won't buy a game because it doesn't have them/can't 100% it easily and I won't force myself to 100% something I hate. It inspired me to always play a game for the first time on the /hardestsecond hardest difficulty when possible instead of "Normal". Pic related, Metro 2033 on Ranger HC was my first playthroughand was a blast.

Post 'em

>moniicow
>literally has cow tits
Like poetry.

>the "ding" it makes when you get a trophy on PSN
>complimentary screenshot (it's a shame most of the time it screenshots a blank loading screen or after-fight resource/menu juggling)

Really gets those instant gratification centers rumbling

mega milk

i like your style, user

Damn - achievements look like THAT?!

I wish the instant screenshots didn't include the notification in the shot.

Vidick

I personally don't mind them, it helps make sense of what the hell happened. Would be nice if it saved both or gave you the option though.

I have this particularly ridiculous screenshot for a "Pull X guys off ledges" in UC4 that's basically pure motion blur and Drake holding his hand out.

Oh, no. She was DEFINITELY cocked.
