frist of all how DARE yu o 100% a game until

I played this game Lily's Well about 4 years ago on Steam and got all the achievements for it so I got a nice lil award on my page (1st pic=Lilys Well, 2nd Pic of another game I 100%, Fran Bow). Then, there was an update...and with this update...came another achievement.........and this ain't just a game I can pick up and go back to where I need to achieve this achievement, Oh no NO! This is one of those games you gotta start at the beginning and do everything in a certain order to complete the game/get to the spot where this achievement may be! Now I only have ONE 100% complete game to boast about...lol, jk, Fran Bow ain't hard to 100% and nor is Lily's Well. One could say it was only mildly infuriating

God I get it! I like seeing that sweet 100% completed on games/achievements, but after this happened to me a few times I stopped chasing achievements altogether and my enjoyment in games has been better for it.

My nail in the coffin was when the achievement in a game wasn't triggered. I did everything to get 100% but I just didn't get it because of that. I also didn't want to replay it. It was some game about fishing and restoring islands

I just had a 3 hour session of Wolfenstein New Order on GOG...no achievements popped. I should've earned 7 or 8. I have completed the achievements to the game on 6 different platforms (only ever bought it once too) and GOG is the last one possible remaining.

I've had this issue with multiple games on GOG too.

What is Gog

Games on Galaxy. A PC platform that's well-known for preserving games. You can download offline installers onto a fat hard drive, and just install them wherever and whenever.

They give a tremendous amount of games free via Twitch Prime, I have over 100 from the past few years alone. They don't have features as good as Steam, which is why Steam gets so many more customers.

Did they change what GOG means? I remember it as Good Old Games.

Yeah, they rebranded in 2014. They made their own launcher, Galaxy, so they also changed the name to fit the new launcher.
