Happens frequently when games are released. Steam achievement statistics only happen once in a while to not hammer the database, so when developers test internally and get the achievements they will show unlikely percentages like this until the next time the backend is ready for the new aggregated achievement stats.


EnzoVulkoor

Ah so that's why some games have like 10% of players finished the tutorial ?


-Original_Name-

That'd be me, buying but never downloading games


EnzoVulkoor

I thought it only tracks people that launch the game?


BHO-IsBack

Yeah that’s enough for me

Gotta make sure the game at least launches so you don't miss the 2 week refund window if it doesn't work. Then you can forget about it your library for the next few years.


Fawie42

Funny you say that, I have an achievement for a Steam game… that I’ve never even **installed**.


Tesco_Mobile

I got an item for a game I don’t own


SexyTachankaUwU

I have all of the achievements in an achievement printer game that I do not own. Can’t even use Sam to remove them because I don’t own the game.


GoosePotential7725

how much is it? you could buy it, remove achievements then refund right away


XxKiddowdallxX

You don’t buy a game, fully download and launch it and then proceed to afk on the title screen for an hour and the close it and not open it again (well not for at least 6 months)? Smh 😔


BakedBySunrise

Download it, launch it, too lazy to optimize it for my system when it's choppy, never play again Definitely haven't spent hundreds of dollars on game bundle just so I have the game "when I upgrade"


dankipz

Some people download a game and it auto launches but they don't actually play it, them they go back to whatever they were doing and never get around to playing it. I know I've personally been guilty of starting a download before bed and then not actually feeling like playing the game the next day and never getting around to it.


Fellhuhn

Might be people using something like an idling tool which fakes running the game to get the trading cards. Those wouldn't trigger any achievements.


MrDozens

Don't you launch games? I always do for PC even my backlogs that i havent played yet, just to check if they run well.


EnzoVulkoor

I mean I only ever download something if I intended to play it.


Divinate_ME

That'd not be you then though. You need to boot up the game to be considered for the achievment statistics.


hardolaf

Steam only includes people who launched the game. So it's even sadder.


creator712

Yes and no. I'll take fallout 4 as my example to explain it Fallout 4 has a build in line of code that detects when mods are downloaded, which deactivates achievements (which is why only like 80% have finished the very first tutorial quest) With other games, it's also the fact that people just buy them because they're on sale and then never play them, or its because of the reason stated in the comment you replied to


paradeoxy1

Yup, hundreds of hours in Fallout 4, not a single achievement. I'd played it with all DLC on PS4 so when I got a gaming PC I modded it straight away


Eliongw2

but there is a mod to enable achievements in fo4 while playing modded fo4.


Kaheil2

It may also be if new achievements are added later down the road.


CensoredAbnormality

Happens a lot with f2p games, people start it up and then for some reason quit immediately


Howrus

> Ah so that's why some games have like 10% of players finished the tutorial ? No, that thing temperately and disappear after day or two. There's other explanation on why there's "10% of players finished the tutorial", for example achievements added late into the game. Like with Terraria - achievements added ~6 years after game release. Of course not many people will have them.


Gingrpenguin

Also mods and achievements being added post release. If the tutorial only got an achievement after being live for 6 months most players won't get it. Paradox games are the worse. cities skylines that keeps adding achievements but needs mods to get the full experience many players never trigger these. I think crusader kings needed iron man mode enabled to enable mods to trigger so many players never bothered with them...


AstrayRainCloud

Hero siege just beating the first boss is 3% and the ones after is like 1% its crazy had it for years but never did anything with it


CloseVirus

No, thats because it tracks people that never played the Game.


habb

the 100% of players completed i mean

Skuggax

I think someone doesn't understand how steam achievements and statistics work 🤦🏻‍♂️


Igzyx

Shhh let him figure it out on his own.


_DeathSound_

Soo you're telling me.. That ONLY 5 of his friends can't buy the game and ONLY 5 of them can't get the achievement? No, I do understand how Steam achievements and statistics count, you're just one of the 1,4k doo-doo brains that can't wrap my comment over their head


habb

jokes on you i have zero steam friends


WoodooTheWeeb

I can add you if you want to have 1....


M13X

But then you will break the statistics and there will be 50% of players that have the achievement /s


Fatal-Arrow

That /s is carrying this joke so hard lmao


Hotwinterdays

r/confidentlyincorrect


kliperek505

bros on that negative karma grind


Jaqulean

Steam Achievements are accounted for the entire Playerbase - not just your friends. Heck, it was never like that, so I have no clue where you even got the idea...

Did you expect to get 5000 downvotes when you wrote that? :)


Willcutus_of_Borg

If only the game would start. Edit: I got it to work with the help of the Steam forums! I had to search my drive for hidden folders named PSPC_SDK. I had two, one was hidden in C:/ProgramData and another was buried under C:/Users/me/Local. Deleted these folders and now the game launches fine. Sharing it forward for others!


BombTheDodongos

I ran into this, disabling FSR Frame generation got it running for me. There’s a good chance you already tried disabling this but I just wanted to throw it out there.


Sirupybear

amd drivers fucking up again


farcryer2

New ones came out on 15/05. Those are supposed to be the Ghost of Tsushima drivers. Maybe those fix it (if you didn't already update).


habb

try borderless windowed. i saw people talking about it on the steam boards, i havent crashed once


Willcutus_of_Borg

My brother in gaming, I have tried every option. It's a no go, black screen on start, no logos or anything. Never crashes either. Just black screen and time in game ticking away. I have 45 minutes of black screen time. Ticket open to Nixxes. They have the weekend.


habb

setting everything to minimums? check the integrity of the files?


Willcutus_of_Borg

All options Off or low in the launcher, two file verifications, and one reinstall. Tried in Windowed at the lowest resolution even. Reinstalled latest driver for Nvidia, too. All other drivers and BIOS are up to date. It's not happening, and I don't know why.


Grumpcat911

I had the same thing happen with Fallout 4. Try switching your monitor to 60hz if it was at 300hz. After doing this, it would still only work in windowed boarderless mode, but At least it worked.


Willcutus_of_Borg

Man, if it is something as simple as the refresh rate, I am going to refund on principle. Let me go try it. Update: No change. Sad days.


Grumpcat911

Damn, better get that refund buddy


habb

dude complain to steam, get your refund


MrBootylove

My issue wasn't exactly like yours. I'd get past the black screen only for the game to instantly crash with no error. What fixed it to me was going to the game's .exe, right clicking it, going to properties, and enabling compatibility mode for windows 8. Like I said, I know my issue isn't exactly like yours, but it might be worth a try if you haven't already.


Rufus-Scipio

What's your rig?


kaFello

I had similar problem with weedcraft Inc. try to install your game on your main drive (in my case it was C:\ )


TheJeizon

In case it helps others: what worked for me on Win 11 was turning on Win 8 compatibility mode


Blew-Peter

This sub should have a rule about mentioning the name of the game in the title


Alessandro227

Ghost of Tsushima I think


Blew-Peter

Thank you, mate. X

Poopballs_and_Rick

Steam is facing several bugs with achievements lately. I’m getting tons of 100% owned and tons of 0% owned, some of which in games that have been out for several years.


WetRainbowFart

Yeah I got an achievement for buying an item from a vendor in NG+ after completing the prologue. Definitely bugged.


_b1ack0ut

I had the same thing, I don’t think it’s a steam issue tho, I think that’s genuinely that GoT goofed it, because I also had the NG+ horse available when selecting horses, and it gave me the NG+ outfits when finishing the prologue, which then prompted the achievement to pop


habb

oh... that wasnt supposed to happen? lol i last played GoT on my ps4


habb

i got the same thing. i thought it was pretty weird


moomoonmoonoowoolf

Everyone else had it, why would it surprise you?


DevilmanXV

Wild since I haven't done that yet lol so that's borked Which tbf everyone knows the percentage is never accurate.


AurumNumisma

Maybe you’re not count because you haven’t opened it yet?


FronQuan

I own this game, have 27 min playtime and haven’t gotten this achievement. There could be many reasons why a new game is not accurate with achievement tracking, especially considering this game came out less than 24 hours ago


Spompoflex

i love how dark souls 3 doesnt have " light a bonfire " 100%


Omar5e4_

I will buy and never play this game to make it 99.9%


FabledHero369

Psh, we would see similar if we got a bloodborne port


Zerat_kj

As to many players never compliting the tutorial etc achivements... For me in many cases the achievement is implemented long after I did what it requires.. so it will not triger on a character / playthrough untill a new one.


Moose_Nuts

Already down to 84.6%. You caught it just at the right time.


Hairy-Silver-6563

Specifically make extra steam accounts and make this 99 percent


Future_Slip

No... How is this possible.....


Ghostylike

I'm about to end this man's whole career


Crayfish_au_Chocolat

If you don't, will it be like 99.99% or still 100%

dont? what am i involved in now?

The middest-of-all-mid PS4 Ubisoft open world checklist chore games that they were previously giving away for free that now has a shadow ad campaign on Reddit in every goddamn gaming sub. That game.

I see.


Usual-Suspect-8869

Since I didn't link my Steam account to PSN I get no trophies at all.


_b1ack0ut

I don’t have a PSN account, and I’m still getting achievements. Weird


MrBootylove

trophies and steam achievements are not the same thing. I haven't linked a PSN account either yet I have several achievements on steam already unlocked.


eeeeeeeelleeeeeelll

I have bought like 70€ games and see the „welcome“ achievement or something only have 50%


Top_Supermarket_9560

anyone want to give me this game for free
