I'm wondering if there has ever been a plan by the GB crew to add point values to the achievements from Steam Games. I bought Deus Ex: Human Revolution over the weekend and I'm going through it on PC where I have previously gone through it on PS3 when it first came out. It would be kinda cool to see how much better I have doing in the PC version compared to the PS3 version. The point total of achievements interest me more than the total amount of achievements which is all Steam presents. Curious if the crew has ever mentioned doing this or not.
Will Steam Achievements have a point value?
Nope. Never. The reasoning behind it is that since mods can have their own achievements, a modder could make an achievement worth a billion points and devalue the entire system by doing so.
@Nightriff:
They did? I imagine it's in relation to the trophy ranks, something Steam lacks in any capacity.
I'm pretty sure that all playstation trophies are based on set values for bronze, silver and gold. In no way am I going to believe that anyone is manually adjusting ps3 games to have exact parity with the Xbox achievement values
