Given that Andhaira toned down on his deluge of inane threads, I thought I would contribute:
So, any thoughts beyond on the subject of the retarded achievements and them being a symptom of consolification?
The only game I've played that has non-loathsome "achievements" is STALKER:CoP, but the "achievements" there don't resemble usual consolish crap, but rather earned perks of Fallouts, as they make sense in the context of the gameworld, have consequences within the game and are rather non-trivial.
Whether they are this way by design, or GSC tried to mimic the usual "achievements", but did it wrong by making it horribly right is an open question.
