  • SteamAchievementNotifier

    Steam Achievement Notifier is an Electron application that shows a customisable notification when you unlock any Steam Achievement! It uses the Steam Web API to track achievement stats in real time, and displays an achievement summary within the notification.

  • I used to hate achievement hunting, it was a lot of hunt for 100 of X or other mundane "challenges". But lately there's been a lot of good ones lately, and been finding now that trying to "100%" I use that loosely because 100% a game and 100% achievements are not the same thing, is very rewarding. Pro tip though, steam achievement notifications are terrible, luckily the community developed Steam Achievement Notifier and I highly recommend it to give you that extra flair and QOL like automatic screen shots and what not.

  • so on a personal level, I still chase achievements and have 100%'d a few on steam, but nothing is firing off in my brain like PS (and XB) achievements do. I enjoy getting RetroAchievements more than Steam achievements. I am also much less likely to play a game on PC if it lacks Steam achievements
