Achievements as Titles

As great as it is to get titles from achievements, some of the achievement names themselves are better (in my opinion) than the titles they give. I'd much rather be able to pick the name of an achievement I completed (minus the roman numeral if one exists, if possible, but even with the numerals would still be ok).

Example:
WTFungah III gives title...."The Fungah". I'd much rather have WTFungah

Example 2:
A Real Bad Ash gives title..."Sister of Ash" or "Brother of Ash" depending on gender. I'd much rather have A Real Bad Ash.

Please let us pick achievement names as titles! Some of them are just awesome!

I disagree. I like the titles that are lore appropriate. We don’t need l33t speak like WTFFungar as titles. This is an immersive, story driven environment. Lets keep it that way please. Lets not break the immersion... keep l33t speak to Twitter.

Breathless.
It's been my favourite achievement. Sounds great and was a blast to get back in the day. Sadly, no title comes with it so I can't show it off.
Sadly, since it's legacy now, they'll never touch it again, I'm afraid. :(

Sorry to say but that makes absolutely no sense. It would break the immersion to replace them with things that are already in the game? I didn't make these up, I took actual achievement names from the game. And the one you nitpicked on is from an achievement that isn't even story-based. How is "The Fungah" any more immersive to the story than "WTFungah"? I can't break lore with something that's already in the game, unless you're somehow trying to say that these achievements need to be renamed because they break lore.

Bringing up immersion would be for if I had asked to let us make our own titles, which I did not, and it would certainly not be l33t speak because
1 - that's not what l33t speak is. Please google it.
2 - It bears repeating these are achievement names that are currently in the game.

Ah yes, what great titles, like

• Bump on a Log: Arcanist

• Mark of Cloud and Ice: B

• I Got the Magic Stick VII

• Cutting Your Wolf Loose: Twin Adder V

• Mapping the Realm: Middle La Noscea

• Pimp Your Ride

• It's Really Done: Aettir Lux & Priwen Lux

• Hey Now, You're an All-Star (yes this is actually an Achievement)

• This One Time, at Level Thirty...

• Beautiful Youngling Too Good for this World, Too Pure

• I Need Your Clothes, Your Boots, and Your Broom

• More Inventory Slots, Please

• Watch Me if You Can: Robonyan F-Type

On a more Serious note; they won't do this due to the MONSTROUS amount of achievements in the game. Without counting any Legacy-Exclusive achievements you're looking at 1,676 new titles if every single achievement in the game became a title. That's ~5x the number of non-legacy titles currently in the game.

Also, I'd rather not have to scroll through hundreds of filler Achievements to find the Title I want to use.

Well he isn't wrong, the names of the achievements exist outside the realm of the game lore, while the titles exist within it.

Please change Legacy Titles to display in Gold font and italics!

This. The achievement names were not meant to be titles, and WTFungar is l33t speak. WTF? Yeah no. We don't need Twitter Shorthand in our immersive game, k thanks.

I do think SOME achievements could work as titles - like the aforementioned "Breathless" or some of the other Primal EX titles. "Sophia's Choice" would have been cool for beating Sophia EX.

I just would like EX Primal titles to come back in general.

Why don’t just give us an editable title ?
Of course,unappropiate words will not be allowed.

Probably because one doesn't generally give themselves a title.
It's bestowed upon another.
