Slightly inconsiderate business practice this game has.
I got this a while ago. It has had some DLC, that is nice. The achievements are locked behind a pay wall and that upsets me. I don't care if it is cheap either, I care that if I want to 100% this again I would have to buy the DLC, slog it out and when the NEXT one is released hold me to the same standard.

I never expect this sort of actions from people who have a donation DLC as well. Vampire Survivors did the same thing for a while but knew how scummy that could be. All achievements stopped prior to the Among Us DLC and all the new DLC doesn't change the pool. I don't have to buy them, I always have the option and keep the 100%

This game aint even that cute.

I'm whatever your delusions carry you. It won't be the last game to do it either. Thanks for the comment.

Constructive, I tremble in terror.

You all know the thread is a minor slight annoyance above anything, But the few bored enough to pop in always have memes and insults. Pillars of the community.

I guess it's because it's not really clear what the goal of your post is. If you want the developer to take action and remove DLC-achievements, or at least quit making them, then it's probably best to write them directly but being a company they're unlikely to comply.
If you just needed to vent your thoughts.. then people will respond with their own.

Personally didn't even know they were behind a paywall because none of the achievements really tell me how they are triggered. They just pop up every once in a while.
They asked the community if they wanted achievements for the DLCs, majority said yes, so that's the way it is. You can not like it, that's fine, but it's not unethical(scummy) especially since they asked the community.

If anything it seems like a Steam issue. Steam could easily implement a way to list DLC achievements separately but don't.
