How do you feel about Trophies and Achievements?

[EpsilonX]

Achievements definitely make the game more enjoyable. When I get a game, I normally just play through it doing my own thing. Then after I beat it the first time, I'll go back for any achievements that I didn't get. Definitely helps me explore the game more than I normally would. Try to do things that I wouldn't normally try. Some achievements definitely seem more like a chore than playing a game. Crackdown comes to mind, collecting 500 agility orbs and 200 hidden orbs. to this day, 1 hidden orb avoids me and I'm one achievement away from 100%.

Out of all my RL friends, I'm really the only one in my group that plays for achievements, so I feel as if I'm one of a few.

I think part of it is that I tend to enjoy longer games, so after I beat a game, I don't go through it again for a LONG time. I'm currently playing through Final Fantasy X HD, and there's a few trophies that will take me ages to get. However, if I stop playing the game, i'm likely not going to go back to it lol.

Sometimes I just feel like trophies make me play games for the wrong reasons
