I have really enjoyed ECO, with over 1400 hours logged. I noticed some steam achievements, and I had an itch I needed to scratch so I dug in again after a year or so.
The easiest achievement is "chop chop", which is to chop down your first tree. It didn't activate.
Does anyone have any thoughts on why?
(I am playing a privately hosted game.)
That being said, I see a lot of achievements are targeted for online co-op, something that I simply do not do very often. I am happy to see the achievements there, but personally, I find it a bit of a bigger achievement shooting down the asteroid in solo mode and feel there should be more achievements for solo players.
It feels like this game is leaning towards a social sim (something that I would rather do with real people in the real world) than an "eco" type game.
Achievements are a huge motivator for me, so when a game starts preaching a gaming style through their achievements I find it a bit of a turn-off.
