    Is there a way to delete a game and all it's achievements from my profile?
    I made a mistake and played a game over 10 years ago called Guns of Icarus Online.
    It has over 800 achievements, is a multiplayer only game AND currently has 2 consecutive players. Wow.

    Apparantly 1.4% of people have completed the tutorial and the TSA on it is ridiculous.

    I am never, ever going to touch this game. How do I get rid of all trace of it?

    I had it removed from my steam account.
    Edit: That did nothing.

    I hid the game in my collection as well.

    There's no option to remove a single game that you no longer wish to complete. As that would kinda go against what this whole site is for. If everyone had the ability to remove games they're not going to complete, everyone's completion percentage would be 100% and each achievement would be worth a 1.00 ratio.

    But this game literally has 850 achievements for no reason when every other game has 20-30. I'd need to perfect like 25 OTHER games just to get the TSA on this one which is something like 133000. Whats all that about? I dont want to clog up my rarest achievements with this crap it doesnt make sense.

    I dont see how that is any less legitimate than this game somehow having 155000 points in it. I could play this game and triple my TSA if I just played this one game, only I really dont think that makes any sense.

    Just look at it, theres no other game like this. This game even EXISTING screws up every other metric.

    At the very least can you hide the achievements from my best achievements if I've hid the game in my library? I think it's actually supposed to filter out but it doesnt on the main profile page.

    It is the same thing on Trueachievement, the achievement of a hidden game still remain in your best achievements.

    I would still suggest you to put a bug report, you can made one directly on Trueachievement as it have the same thing. They will say if that is a bug or intended.

    +I can see which achievements you are talking about, Flying Fish in Guns of Icarus Online. When i check directly in your "My Achievements" list, i dont see it and i dont see the game in your game list. Unless i go in your game collection and filter hidden game.
