Acheivements are a big part of the experience for me, and just running them as an external program doesn’t give that option. Is there any chance of doing so? I’m sure I managed to get some pirated dlc to work like that once.

You can use steam achievement manager to unlock any achievements you want. as far as having that automatically happen with steam, i’m not sure if that’s possible
oh alr, do you have to “own” the game on steam to unlock achievements? Currently just running them through “add a non steam game” I’m guessing you cant pirate steam product keys etc.
yeah you have to own the game to unlock the achievements
fair enough, I’m guessing there’s no workaround for that?
If the pirated game you are running uses the Goldberg Emu or a similar variant then they have the capabilities of Achievement unlocks. If you are on windows you can also combine this with Achievement Watcher which can pick up the achievements and even display them as you get them with toast notifications.
I’ve never heard of goldberg actually, will have to look into it
I wonder if RetroAchievements is open-source. Could be possible to clone achievements for pirated games.
