RA has allowed me to get out of my comfort zone a bit when it comes to my security blanket type games and really clear out my backlog significantly. The achievement incentive gave me the extra push to finally play a game in my backlog I otherwise would have had an excuse to put off longer, or replay I game I've beaten once but probably would have never touched again. Even with familiar games, I found ways to play that I otherwise never would've considered.

I've use RA for a few months now after getting into emulation, and I'd say it's become my favourite achievement system. Leaderboards, subsets for the more popular games, achievements for hacks and homebrews, a strong community, and bonus points for getting extremely rare achievements. Since this video was made, RA support has been extended to DuckStation, PCSX2, and I think Dolphin has only just started support. Dreamcast is also supported in RetroArch using the Flycast core.

0:33 I don't play games just from my childhood. Granted, there are many older games I just won't touch, like most of what Atari had to offer, but nostalgia isn't the only factor. A love of retro games can come in different flavors and while it *helps* to have grown up with the systems and games, it's not really a requirement. I never played the Dreamcast. Didn't even know what it was until I was in college and the system and Sega's whole aspiration for a successful console line were dead. I know, random tangent over a small comment, but it annoys me that people don't appreciate that these games offered a lot beyond nostalgia. Some of them are genuinely just really fun to play. I don't care what system you play it on, Tetris is always going to be fun to play, and whether you play Chrono Trigger on the SNES or the DS or an emulator or on Steam, you're going to have a fun time, because it's a great game. And no matter the version of Super Mario Bros. you play, if you're into sidescrollers (which for the most part, I am *not),* you are still getting a solid, enjoyable experience, because they're well-made games. Obviously a remake makes it better. Super Mario All-Stars beats the original versions by miles, visually, but the introduction of the Generation 6 remakes of Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire didn't suddenly make Ruby and Sapphire and Emerald worthless to me. I think they look amazing to this day, but the style is different. There's a reason so many indie games focus on pixel art and old PS1 graphics (for horror games). It's not just nostalgia, though they do long for those days, and it's not just because the games are cheaper to produce, but of course they *are.* It's because they think the games look good. And they do. EDIT: Just to put it another way, I don't listen to 80s music because I want to relive my childhood. I was born a decade later. I just think the 80s culture has great appeal. Lots of people do, which is a large reason why Stranger Things got so popular. Getting achievements for these games seems like a really cool feature. I've only recently started to appreciate achievements as a whole after working so hard to get to nearly 100% achievements in Halo MCC (there are a LOT). I don't obsess over it, but it's something cool to work towards, and since RetroArch offers connectivity with the feature, I'm thinking of taking advantage of it when I eventually get an RG35XX Plus or similar handheld.

What's bad about RetroAchievements is that the Developer's Code of Conduct isn't strictly enforced. It is annoying as heck when a grindy achievement is what stops you from mastering a set when the CoC says grindy achievements aren't allowed in main sets.
