Suggestion: Improve Steam’s Achievement System
Hello everyone,

I want to share a suggestion regarding Steam’s achievement system. I’m a player who enjoys completing games 100% and hunting achievements, but right now the experience on Steam doesn’t feel as rewarding or satisfying as it does on other platforms like PlayStation.

Here are two improvements I’d love to see:

1.A more visually satisfying achievement presentation.

It would be great if earning important achievements or fully completing a game felt more special and motivating.

2.Separate base game achievements from DLC achievements.

Currently, when a DLC adds more achievements, the game loses its “100% completed” status, even if you already finished all the base game achievements. This is frustrating for achievement hunters. It would be better if:

•The base game could be marked as completed once all original achievements are earned.

•DLCs had their own optional achievement section.

I believe these changes would make completing games on Steam much more satisfying and less tedious.

Thanks for reading.

If getting 100% achievement by itself is 'unsatisfying' then you are not really an achievement hunter. If you want to be a 100% achievment hunter you get that from intrinsic validation. There is no amount of extrinsic systems that will make you feel better.

Can you explain why games on Playstation get abandoned despite it being seen as a superior system.
1. Achievements are way to easy to cheat on PC. Between using someone else's 100% save file to utilities like SAM, it's pretty easy to look like you completed the game.

2. This would require the developers to mark their achievements as being for the DLC and not the base game, which relies on the developers to bother to do so. Valve isn't going to force them in any way to separate them, so if a developer doesn't want to bother with it, they won't.

It'd be nice if we could categorize achievements at all. Let's start there.

TF2 has achievement groups, but Valve never made that feature available to other developers or used that feature in any of their other titles.
+1 great idea and it gets suggested here all the time so it’s clearly something many users would like added.

100 % is 100 %. Even on PSN you lose your 100 % if new trophies are added.

The only people who seem to be frustrated about it seem to be Steam achievements "hunters". I have never seen such complaint on LIVE or PSN, even less a weekly topic about it.

How would any of those changes make things more satisfying or less tedious if you are "enjoying completing games 100 %"? You'd do the same stuff as you do now.

ad 1) no relevancy whatsoever to the thread.
ad 2) in order for developers to bother or not, they first need the possibility to do so. On Steam you cannot categorizse achievements. On LIVE and PSN for some reason they do seem to bother. And small fun fact: both platforms do force them by not allowing to modify the base game's list.
Looking at your recent activity... I'm impressed that some "achievement hunters" doesn't understand the definition of the word achievement.

Perhaps consoles aren't for you if you feel it's not satisfying, at least idlers would care.
