    I love Dungeons of Dredmor and I'll admit I enjoy achievement hunting once I have beaten a game. Dungeons of Dredmor already has a vast replay value without achievements taken into consideration; but I've noticed there is room for more to be added (which means more fun and challenges). I can't draw to save my life so there will simply be achievement names and descriptions. Feedback and your own ideas are welcome; especially if you can think of a better name and description for one.

    Some have reference to songs, movies, video games, and pop culture. See how many you can find/make suggestions on ones without them. Most names suck, but the ideas are there so :).

    Those I like, and getting one of the "money" achievements and one of the "kill while being damaged" achievements would probably be good too (though one instead of all three, because making it into different percentages with low range will only serve to frustrate the players).
    The rest of them, they feel kind of... grindy, with nothing to really achieve in them.

    How about a few for getting ridiculously high stats? Such as:

    Then We Hide In Plain Sight ----------------------------------------------------------- Get 100 Sneakiness
    Combo Wombo ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Counter 10 enemy attacks in a row
    Dungeons of The Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy ------ Dodge 10 enemy attacks in a row
    Armored To The Teeth --------------------------------------------------------------------- Completely absorb a hit from Dredmor

    just to rattle off a few I could think of

    Pretty much this. Also HowlingLotus, if you want achievements, then GLG should fix those bugged ones first and care about adding new achievements later.
     
  7. I fully support the idea of new achievements adds depth, challenge, and more re-playability.
