Akrib.4297 Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 I just don't see the benefit of having some achievements being hidden. I feel like it forces us to use multiple external sources just to figure them out. Many of them aren't achievements you can get by just playing because they mostly involve doing really specific things to achieve them. Maybe theirs something that I'm not seeing behind them, but most of the time I have to go through gw2 wiki/forum, dulfy and YouTube to figure some out because their not explained to well. Would like to hear everyone's opinion on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danikat.8537 Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 As far as I know it's not something they do often anyway.I agree that the vast majority of achievements shouldn't be hidden, but sometimes I can see the value in doing it - like when the Current Events stuff was released and we weren't supposed to know what was going on or why or what it was going to lead to.But I also think they made exactly the right decision in revealing the achievements once that was no longer relevant, so people could clearly see what they personally still had to do.

Shirlias.8104 Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 I like the hidden ones, Though i don't go for achies usually.As you said, there's always dulfy, and they don't do that so often. Btw, if you don't know that they exist, you don't do em. And else if you do, you do em.Is it right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonami.2987 Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Agree, hidden achievements are pointless and only encourage looking for guides instead of completing them yourself.@Danikat.8537 said:As far as I know it's not something they do often anyway.I agree that the vast majority of achievements shouldn't be hidden, but sometimes I can see the value in doing it - like when the Current Events stuff was released and we weren't supposed to know what was going on or why or what it was going to lead to.But I also think they made exactly the right decision in revealing the achievements once that was no longer relevant, so people could clearly see what they personally still had to do.The disable them, so you know they're there and what you have to do to enable them, but don't hide them.

Valky.2574 Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I can see it being good for story achievements to not spoil you, but other than that there is no need for them imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharterforGw.3149 Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 If they don't give any achievement points it's nice to have some of them hidden. but I can understand that completionists want ALL the achievenment points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WARIORSCHARGEING.2637 Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 myself I would not like any hidden achievement points at all. when they did that in heart of thorns . that was a major turn off for me . and another myself and others got burned on the hot pack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
