Oh cool Steam has achievement sets now so you can have DLC achievements but you're able to 100% the base game Forza Horizon 5 is the only game i own that supports it so far but there are a couple that I can imagine with this (PLEASE do this with The Binding of Isaac)

The Steam library view of Forza Horizon 5 showing specifically the Achievement window. I have 25 out of 164 achievements unlocked. Below is a bar with 15.2% of it filled. Part of the bar is blue while a small bit of the filled bar is purple. Below it, theres text in a blue-ish gray box that says "1 base game set" with a purple box below saying "2 DLC sets"

My steam achievement view for Forza Horizon 5, showing a bar with about 15% of it filled in. Most of the filled part of the bar is blue, with some of it being purple.Theres a small tool bar between that and the list of achievements showing utilities like enabling showing global stats, pinning achievements, a dropdown with the option "All Achievements" selected, and a dropdown with "All Sets (3)" selected. My cursor is over the "All Sets" option showing the dropdown. Inside the dropdown shows the options of "Base Game," "Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels," and "Forza Horizon 5: Rally Adventure," The Hot Wheels and Rally Adventure sets have a "DLC" tag on them

Average Bee Gaming Setup (The wii zapper isnt essential but the pink wii remote I have inside it at all times is the one synced to my PC properly, also allows me to have easy access to the nunchuck port if I slide it between my monitor stand and a stack containing multiple decks of playing cards)

Honestly looking at the lineup of Nintendo Switch Online controllers, I think they should do the NES NSO dogbone controllers * The NES NSO controllers wont have updated EU models to allow people to swap the battery * The controllers are impossible to charge […] [Original post on wetdry.world]

An NES Toploader controller, called the "Dogbone." The shape is more rounded, with either half of the controller having a circular area for the Dpad on the left and A and B on the right, the whole shape resembling a Dogbone. The Start and Select buttons are angled like a Super Nintendo controller, and the B and A buttons are angled upwards with a bump on the controller they sit in. The cable is coming out the middle of the top edge, unlike a standard NES controller

The NES Nintendo Switch Online controller, showing a rectangle controller with a dpad, start, and select, resembling the original NES controller. At the top edge of the controller, a Joycon rail can be seen to attach it to the console, also showing the SL and SR buttons (Just labeled L and R)

First time ive actually purposefully sun damaged a thing (Context: Bought a very much sun damaged indigo Gamecube controller with T3 stickboxes. THe controller otherwise worked perfectly and I used it for a shell swap)

The front half and back half of a NIntendo Gamecube controller on top of a piece of cardboard outside in the sun. the back half at the top is a bright blue-ish purple (Indigo), while the front half at the bottom is a much darker shade of purple due to being "yellowed". Around the buttons, corners of the dpad, and grooves in the controller, the original shell's color is visible, much more matching the bright color of the top shell
