Support for GOG Galaxy achievements

We do not plan to support GOG Galaxy achievements at this point.

Upsetting. Would you mind sharing the reasoning behind it?

What about cloud saves and the overlay though? Will it get fixed?

Similar reason as stated by Jamor for Stellaris. It requires additional implementation of the Galaxy SDK which takes time away from the dev team to work on other features and bugs.

It's currently there because the backup installer hasn't been updated to the latest version yet. If I:R will follow the same path as Stellaris, the previous version will become unavailable for download as soon as the backup installer gets updated.

We've put up 1.0.0 as a rollback version on the GOG equivalent of beta branches in the Galaxy client, called "beta channels". The channel is named '1.0.0 - Old Version'. We'll attempt to do the same thing on GOG as we do on Steam, and allow players to rollback to any of the larger updates as they choose.

This is amazing news. It really warms my heart to see that you read this topic and react! If you have spare time, would you mind asking the Stellaris team to do the same thing, or should I create a different topic in Stellaris subforum for that?

Again, thank you for implementing this, but what would make you change your stance on achievement support?

It would be best to post any requests relating to Stellaris in that part of the forum, as each project has it's own roadmap and priorities.
