Are achievement bugs still there in 2020?
I will start playing this game based on weather the achievements are working or not

I run in windowed mode, as admin and in windows vista sp2 mode :D according to other discussions this is necessary but still the MAIN REASON is the steam client.

If you already opened the game through client then you have to restart windows, or just steam, idk.

The game is still buggy and in terms of its achievements, too :( You can try to set compatibility manually and run the game through administrator rights, but whether it works and whether it’s worth it is a big question.

Ok, sidenote: if you open the game once with "wrong settings" (e.g. not as admin) the achievements are broken until you restart windows.
