I actually didn’t say anything about idling? If you aren’t familiar with achievement servers or maps despite being an integral part of achievement hunting communities on Steam then I suggest you brush up. I am personally fairly indifferent on the jackpot achievements other than it making sense to get something for achieving a jackpot. I seriously don’t see an issue with the RNG nature of achievements. If it’s truly an issue for you then just use SAM to unlock the problem achievement. CSGO has plenty of achievements that require either an incredible amount of luck or for the person to set up the exact situation using bots (not far away from just using SAM really). The same goes for a multitude of other popular games on Steam. I would happily say jackpots can be replaced by achievements that require a certain amount of winnings from a machine that is roughly equivalent to a medium sized jackpot. That way you can still grind to it the same way you’ll be grinding for a number of other difficult large achievements.
