What's the point of hiding achievements? - eviltoast

How am I supposed to earn them if I don’t even know what they expect me to do for them? Why do these exist? I haven’t even encountered a game (not even a Fromsoft game, and those guys are notorious for being vague and not forthcoming with info even for guide books) where the hidden achievements were not already listed by a 3rd party somewhere outside of the game day 1, so why not just show them in the damn game?

    Reminds me of a time when in Final Fantasy XIV they added a character title that was a spoiler for an expansion ending. Character titles appear under every character name out in the open, and hundreds of people across servers, who had finished the game, changed theirs to be a spoiler. Resulted in the quickest patch roll out that I’ve ever seen.
