Could you imagine walking through a scary ass corridor, and then all the sudden a little window pops up in the corner of your screen with a silly name, and broke all immersion just to remind you you're playing a video game? It might be funny for people who played the game 50 times, but it'd ruin the experience for anyone who hasn't played it yet.
Achievements now adays are just a huge ass gimmick with a fancy name. Really 99% of the time they're just for playing the game rather than achieving them (like literally most games just give you achievements for beating a level, which is the most pointless achievement better), slap a witty name on it and apparently its the best thing since sliced bread.
Yea that's why it's a joke thread, piss off if you're gonna be a little turd and ruin it for everyone else, have a sense of humor, this isn't serious, it isn't meant for anything but laughs
Oh and thanks for stating the obvious about how it ruins immersion when
numerous people have already pointed this out
