Have you ever used RetroAchievements on an emulator?

[LandonAndEmma]

If not I really recommend it; it makes games so much more fun and rewarding to play!

I've gotten into them a lot lately. Some of the achievements lists can be... tiring, but for the most part I've been enjoying replaying older games to at least mark them down as completed.

I've found them sometimes a pain to set up, but I've mostly had pretty positive experiences, especially with PS1 games via DuckStation.

[Evaccaneer Doom]

Never heard of someone who hasn’t tbh

 

[TacoMeister]

I like playing with them but it can be a real pain to set up, especially on Retroarch...
I don't use them on my retro handhelds though.

 

[CheesyExplosive]

No... i don't want my flycast becoming a xbox 360 achievement

 

[Miles]

No because I don't care about achievements.

 

[Nelson2001 Nelson2001]

No, because I'm too lazy to establish it, although I respect several people who like this system of retroachievements.

 

[Waffles's iconWaffles]

I actually didn't know that was possible.

I was never a fan of Achievements when PS3/Xbox 360 started doing them, so I was never really interested in RetroAchievements

I loved it and started using it a couple years back, but then I discovered a very annoying problem with it: every time an emulator gets updated, it breaks the achievement detection and then you have to wait for them to catch up to the new emu version. I had this happen twice, and sadly the second time ended with me forgetting my password for the new machine I installed the new version of my emulator (retroarch) on, and now the site won't send me a reset password request when asked, so I'm locked out of my account and cannot put it back on any emulator I have that supports it. Though honestly, I doubt I would since like I said, emulator updates kept breaking things.

Awesome idea though. I went through Dragon Quest 5 on Retroarch and got most of the achievements until an update borked it.
