Yeah, when I first got my Xbox 360 and played Lost Odyssey, and it kept telling me "You Got Achievement blah blah blah!" when I didn't actually do anything but progress in the story, it seemed incredibly pointless and silly to me.

But now I understand it's so all your buddies can see how you're progressing, which is cool I guess, but not something I particularly care about.
Whatever happend to "Guys, I just barely squeaked by that boss the other day. Totally epic fight!". I mean, if they're actually your friends, you should be able to, you know, communicate with them outside of automatic updates. And if they're not your friends, who cares what they know of your progress?
