Jonathan Blow had a great (imho) rant about those type of notifications that someone clipped from one of his live streams. (Warning: strong language.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9nmCIrs7HI
I saw that the Shadow of the Colossus remake has little achievement notifications when you kill colossi and that really burns my biscuit. You're watching this slow-motion scene of a colossus dying, sad music plays, you wonder if you're doing the right thing, and the PlayStation is like "yayyy!~ You're such a good gamer!~"
Jonathan Blow has good points sometimes, but he comes off as very "old man rants at cloud" most of the time. He's been stewing in his own sauce for far too long.
