It's kinda sad that a game you love can only be 100%ed once, forever. I propose an option (and it should really be optional) to reattain the cheevos for a game you've already maxed. The original achievement unlock info should remain, but if the in-game pop-ups could be set to begin again, and for the next unlocked cheevo to add a little star or a +1 to your cheevo icon or something (even if it's only visible to yourself), that would be awesome.

Anyone else wish they could 100% a game multiple times or am I just too autistic for my own good? πŸ‘€

If you don’t mind not retaining the original unlock date, there is a way you can reset all your achievements for a game.

You can do this via Steam Achievement Manager or via terminal.

That seems like a very niche thing, I'm happy with my 100% achievements and don't want that status gone. What you could do instead is create a new steam account and steam family share your games to that new account to play again with no achievements.

Not interested in that myself as I rarely replay games even more so to 100%

I enjoy collecting achievements, but I almost never get 100% of them - a lot of the games I play have achievements for finishing the game on several difficulty levels, and I'm definitely not 'autistic enough' for that. TBH I'm usually content with 50% achievements.

I can see the appeal for games where collecting achievements isn't extremely time-intensive, though.
