I'm glad they're progressive, but I do have a gripe with the fishing uncommon fish. The only uncommon fish I've come across are betas in the first fishing zone which drastically reduces the amount of other fish caught. I'm not sure if the level offset from starting at 1 and getting to the second zone accounts for 1k uncommon fish or if I'm just missing another uncommon fish in higher zones?

I do enjoy the arena ones as they're doable and they encourage arena gameplay which felt somewhat empty for a long time. Still is when you search a game, but at least more people are trying it now due to the achievements.

I'm having fun with the achievements. I find myself rushing over to the achievements page anytime I do any little thing to see if it earned me a reward, even if I knew full well that it wouldn't X3

I'm not grinding most of them too hard since I anticipate earning rewards passively, but I have be be intentional about the gauntlet since I usually don't play that, and I need those daggers U.U

They're fine, but I'm genuinely baffled at the high priority of their implementation. It buys them attention span hours, I suppose!

I like the achievement, I even love them. There are great ideas in them, and I've started to chase some of them. It kind of have rekindled my interest. But I think some are weird or should not be present. The following is just my personal opinion.

- Non gameplay related achievements shouldn't be there (friend and forum posts).

- RNG based achievement feel a bit too difficult to get and should be severely balanced or removed depending on the difficulty of the RNG. For example: "Twinsies!!!" getting identical wolves with breeding is so rare, close to impossible. Is it fair to have that achievement? A one level achievement maybe? It can make a fun little challenge if getting twins is actually possible (has it ever happened, though?). But five levels of it?

- Profession NPC boosts achievement (ex: "Praise The Thumbs!"), no real problem with them. I think it's a nice pebble sink. Even if unfortunately, at the moment most of them are completely useless. But I think all professions should have them, so why fishing doesn't have one with Koda? I just hope it's a mistake and not because koda is the most used NPC as being the only useful one.

- Achievement based on failure (ex: "Becoming The Hunted") are not fun, I'd rather see positive achievement that push people to play the game.

- Then are achievement-specific problems, for example "To The Top" in the Gauntlet achievement to max it out you need to reach level 25 in the gauntlet. Since beta, I have never ever seen someone reach that high. I think the higher I've seen was 14. My personal best was 13.

And I think I have talked too much now, there is still plenty to be said about the achievements, both negative and very positive. I just hope it will keep players interested long enough for the next update.

i think the achievements are a breath of fresh air, and were worth the wait. it's given me almost the same level of interest as i once had at the very beginning of launch. i do agree with DerpFox's post though.

I love all the achievements! It gives me a reason to do things that aren't my favorites, like fishing or hunting. I also love that you can get profession tickets, and the rewards seem super evenly balanced. I love the fact that you can see future levels of achievements and their rewards, too. I just love everything about it. I've also noticed a drop in pb:ms ratios on the FM due to better ms payouts, a trend I hope continues as folks get rewards. :)

I love the achievements, and it certainly gives me goals to work towards compared to before where I was sorta just floundering for things to do. I'm a pretty casual player, but they all seem like something that is fully achievable and not impossible to attain!
