achievement points are the perfect way to get people to keep playing their game even more than they already do.

Since I own a 360, I am shamed to admit I enjoy achievements.
I used to think they where stupid...

Pretty much. I think I am finally getting genuinely exhausted of MMOs, mostly because the majority of new content ends up being monotonous busy work that helps accomplish keeping their subscribers playing away. I suppose that's how it's always been, but it seems like before they (Blizzard) were better at disguising it. Now it's as if they aren't even trying. I have no problem with it when the content actually serves a purpose in the game, but of all the things to pick, they could have shown something other than a completely underwhelming and pointless feature that has already been done better by XBL

i liked the acheivements in LotRO.  Except they had actual in game benefits.  but as a pure pve game, i guess they could get away with that

So they only unlock cosmetic rewards? I'd be more interested if they worked like the current reputation system, but with more accessible rewards. Oh well, Blizzard isn't making it easy I guess  :-\

I did some of a heroic a few days ago and got a Badge of Justice. I'll need 60+ to get anything good which will be a pain. But the rewards are sooo much better than pvp shit, at least from a tank's perspective
