Why doesn't FD add Steam achievements and console achievements to Elite Dangerous? It just seems like a really easy win which adds short-and long-term progression targets for people who want them without ruining the "blaze your own trail" aesthetic for those who are dead against any kind of scripted story mode. And they are fun to get, y'know!
Steam/XB1 achievements/PSN trophies

Huh. That they do. Steam achievements then

And these are fine but I'd prefer more "high-end" achievements rather than things that can be accomplished within the first few hours. And less CQC stuff! (It's probably a sign of when the Xbox version was released.)

Waste of development time.
Well, that's just like, your opinion, man/ma'am.
I've noticed that I feel a little let down if I'm playing a game the second time, or many hours into a game there aren't "playthroughs" of, when the achievements dry up. I didn't ask for them, but it is kind of fun to get them, and when you don't, less fun. A game like this, I think it's better without them overall.
In some games (Fallout 3 for example) I have collected all the trophies. To feel like I've done 'all the things'. In a game like Elite if I ever felt like I'd done it all I'd stop playing. This is one game where I'm happy to keep going.
If trophies were there I think it would put a bit of crimp in my motivation once they'd all been collected.

I am not sure the "A True Champ" (250 wins in CQC) would be done in a few hours personally. I think when I read the guide on Xbox one even with "boosting with friends" it took like 60 hours. So playing without boosting is going to be a long haul, not looking forward to that on PS4.

Awesome list. Some CMDRs do well with guides.
Would be nice to see these "achievements" match ship decals I can put on the side of my ship for selfies...
