You are on the wrong page for that comment. People on here will not play a Game Pass Quest if it will pop an achievement. I do understand why someone would not want an odd gamerscore (I would not let it stop me from playing a game I would enjoy) but if we look at it from the other side of things it is worse.
Imagine making a video game and not having faith that people will want to play through the whole game so you stick them with a quick odd score and
force them to play the rest of the game to get the achievement that evens that score out?
Literally no developer is doing that. Also, as somebody who actually has OCD (and a valid diagnosis, not something off TikTok), something like an odd achievement score is highly unlikely to drive us up the wall. In a world where I have to touch door knobs multiple times or wash my hands every time I touch a surface, seeing an odd-looking gamerscore is the least of my concerns and certainly not something that developers are preying on to get people to play their games.

I do not pay attention to achievements now but I know for a fact that in the past there are games that start off with an odd achievement score and in order to get the other half you have to basically finish the game. Off the top of my head I do not remember the name of these games but I am sure someone on here will know.
I never mentioned OCD. If someone else did quote them to talk about OCD because I not once mentioned OCD. I do not have OCD and when I cared about my gamer score I preferred for it end in 0 or 5 just because it looked better. I do not suffer anxiety if it is not but I would rather it were. Again, not talking about OCD so I do not know why you are bringing that up. Congrats on your diagnosis I guess? I dont know what you want for that.
