A new beta release for the Steam client includes scoped-achievements.

Achievements can now be split into game mode specific, DLC specific and seasonal specific achievements.

In theory, this will now allow players to achieve achievement completion, even though they're not interested in the multiplayer aspect of a game.

I never pay attention to them. I find it interesting that people do.

Well for those that like them, I can really see why you would like this system better.

It's always interesting to see people get like legitimately upset about being unable to get an achievement.

Like... Just don't? Nobody is making you do this.

Almost seems like a sort of compulsion.

Drives playtime up and keeps people on the Steam platform.
