I think using mods disables achievements for cyberpunk, so that could bias the numbers. I don't know how many people are actually using mods though.
That's stat is on ps5 and there's no mod support, also achievements aren't disabled if you use mods on the GOG version. I mod it to reach level 72 and max all the stats and I still got the achievements.
That's the reason that only 15% of Crusader Kings II players have "The Marriage Game" achievement, which is awarded for getting married. In a game about dynastic politics.
Paradox games require you to turn on Ironman mode to get achievements, which is why all of them have really low achievement percentages. That combined with vanilla just seems like not a whole lot of fun to me.
It's worse for CK2, you only get achievements if you're playing on ironman mode. Given how complex it is to just understand how to play the game properly, even if you really enjoy it you might play for hundreds of hours before even starting an ironman run!
