Can confirm that the plat is obtainable, everything unlocked at the right time and the game only crashed once during a scenario. Took me around 49 hours.

That's great, thanks So , to beat Leviathan Easy it's best to LV up to 110. There Is a good spot to LV up?

I would genuinely say don't worry about it. Play what you want to play. Gaming is not a chore. BUT if it's that important make a rule to yourself something like you have to complete 5 games for every 1 new one you buy or something. Also I would cancel PS Extra as that just gives you a feeling of FOMO if you don't play a bunch of available games and just adds to your backlog.

I died in the process.

I mostly stopped buying games outside of major releases I am interested in, but now PS Premium keeps me busy. Every month there always a handful of games I look at and think, yeah, I will play that...

Just give up and accept you will never finish your backlog. Just play what you want atm and don't buy games for later just because they're on sale. Finish games on discontinued systems if you have those and then just go with the flow and stop worrying.

They confirmed that yes, Ifrit's damage is based on Clive's level and gear. They mentioned it explicitly in their event 3 weeks ago promoting the DLC. And yeah, level cap is raised to 110 for Clive, and Torgal's pedigree gets an additional level as well. Nope!

My backlog has a mind of its own. It hungers. It cries out in the night for more. It's never satiated. I have a huge problem of starting a game, getting distracted and playing something else. And I'm not even talking about getting the "Press start to trophy" trophy just to add it to my list either. I mean a proper start.

I came to terms with being unable to clear my backlog a long time ago. However, there are still a bunch of games on there that for whatever reason have fell to the wayside, and I do want to get to sooner than later. So each year, I try to make a small, reasonable list of some backlog games...maybe like 10 games. If I finish at least 5 of them, I'll be happy. Of course this is on top of any newer releases, games I'm actively working on etc. I used to have lists upon lists of what I was gonna play in attempts to really put a dent in the backlog, but it just burned me out, or began to feel very robotic and chore-like, and then I abandon it. So now, as long as I can finish a few of them here and there, I'm content with it.

I can confirm it works, not that there was any doubt! I discovered an additional factoid. If you did what I did and started over with the workaround (changing the system language), you can continue using that save file! Before, saves were exclusive to the system language -- you couldn't load the foreign save with your home tongue. This practically confirms the glitch was tied to language. I encountered the crash only a few days before the patch released, but fortunately it isn't that arduous to reach Far Drop anyway. 100 Precursor Orbs isn't a grind, either -- I met the requirements in Far Drop, and I didn't even collect the hide-and-seek or Eco energy orbs! A couple of backlogged YouTube videos later I was caught up, with no wasted scrap to boot. I am glad I don't have to switch the system language every time I want to play this game, though. On an unrelated note, apparently the Tomb Raider trilogy is fixed too. Patches for bygone games seem to take a little while but they do come. Keep backups whenever you can, in case something else breaks.

Yep, I was thinking the same thing lol. Trophy hunting can be an enormous time waster and generally leads to a bigger backlog. Doing my best to get what I can within reason and move on and just enjoy a more general gaming experience. After all, we have a limited number of disposable hours and we’re not going to be thinking, hey I really wish I got more plats on our death beds 😉

Backlog will remain undefeated. I still have PS3 games more than a decade old haunting me. Maybe I will reach 90+ years of age and won't even get to it.

I was gifted a code from Afil Games. All timestamps are linked in the video. There are 41 puzzles you must complete. You must also purchase 1o hats (the bunny hat is linked to another trophy where you have to complete a level wearing it. Using the guide you can earn all 23 trophies in about 30 minutes - 1 hour. I hope this complies with the rules of posting in this forum!

You're welcome. Yes, it is crossbuy

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but Bonds of Friendship will make all the Brutal challenges (Ruler of the Outer Worlds included) look like a joke 😂 The only bad Brutal challenge IMO is The Seventh Seal because of that damn Gigaworm, but I beat the other four on my first try and Optinoob's Brumal Form strat makes the sixth one a cakewalk. As for the Legendary challenges, I found the solo ones pretty manageable but again, Bonds of Friendship will make you want to pull your hair out. Once you beat that one, To Be Hero will be a breeze as it's basically the same as BOF only Sephiroth is a much stronger than Zack which makes it a lot easier. I struggled a lot with Bahamut until I realized how to prevent myself from getting damaged when he does Xenodrive mode. When he does Particle Charge for the third time, there's not gonna be enough time to pressure him with Aerora so I suggest using the Synergy Ability to cancel him out of it. If he powers up with Xeno, I noticed getting far away with Cloud or Zack will have him just focus on the other character. Yup! Blocking with Prime Mode and Counterfire will allow you to deal with most of Bahamut's attacks. The only problem is if he does into Xenodrive mode.

You want to get through your backlog? The quickest way imo is stop collecting trophies. Can turn a 30 hour game into 80+ hours sometimes (e.g. Death Stranding). Play a game, enjoy the story, collect what you can (if you want to), move to the next one. Personally I would just cull an entire gen if need be. I did that with PS3. I have no way currently to play the games anyway so I sold my collection and moved on. Sure I'll no doubt miss out on some great titles but you can't play everything.

I threw this in as I was feeling a bit rotten and wanted to push my ABC challenge a bit. Ni No Kuni will have to wait. #114: Newt One A really simple platformer with some tricky jump. The goal is to color in the levels and there are four stages with six levels, but you can find a wand that will color in everything around you. You collect notes to get palette swaps of your costume and the platinum just requires you to rescue all the parrots in the levels, color in all the levels(which the wands make easy) and get all the costume color swaps(you get a new color swap every time you collect 50 notes). I am glad you don't have to get perfect runs as it was impossible for me to avoid falling into the abyss over and over.

I really love this game since I played the 3DS version about 7 years ago, I can't wait to get the platinum

I personally find the term Backlog offensive and unnecessary. I came to terms with the fact that I will never ever in a million years complete my own backlog of games. And I also learned through many years of game-playing and serious trophy-hunting, that no matter what I do, it will never happen. So, why bother agonizing over it. It's no fun. As long as they are making games, and we are all buying them, there-in lies the problem. Especially for completionists and the like. I am willing to bet that most of us buy way more games than we can ever hope to finish. If I cloned myself 10 times (lol) and had all my clones play my games 24/7 like machines across multiple consoles, then and only then will I ever get my back log done. Yeah right, like that's ever going to happen. But what would be the point then. Perfection doesn't exist. And it's apparent that many gamers believe they can achieve total completion. Of course that doesn't exist if you only have a handful of games to play. I love trophies but hate what I have become - a trophy-whore. Tough cookies, right? Serious gaming also includes, these days, server closures, games being delisted, prioritizing, game-breaking patches. Plus many other factors that add even more stress. Games leaving subscription services is a great example. We are by nature all a bit greedy when it comes to trophy-hunting, or we wouldn't be here right now discussing this. This backlog dilemma is nothing new. It dates back to PS1 games and even farther back. The only difference between now and then is we have trophies, achievements needing/wanting to be had. We are trophy-driven to sometimes crazy heights without even realizing it until we first use the word Backlog. Gasp! Boosting games that have dead lobbies is also stressful in many cases. Especially when some games require a minimum of 4-6 players to even start a match. Hunters Arena is a prime example of this. 12 players/accounts to start a match. That in itself is annoying. Grindy games - take your pick. Plenty to choose from. This is yet another factor in gaming, and going for that 100%. Games that constantly add DLC. If you're into 100%'s then this will add more to your backlog plate. Yay! People who torture themselves endlessly over their backlog need to realize that it's become like a job you either love or hate. We all have our own goals in video-gaming, but be brutally honest with yourself, who here really believes they will ever 100% complete their backlogs in trophy-hunting? I'm not trying to discourage anyone, or be a wet blanket, but be realistic. I myself have learned that Backlog is just a state of being that way too many people get stuck in, like a huge Rut. Play your games, earn your trophies, have fun as much as possible, but try to keep perspective if at all possible. Then you will be happier. It's like anything in life, people are so obsessed and single minded about certain things that it potentially becomes self-destructive. Look at any shows on TV about hoarders and you will see what I mean. Many people are like that, but with video-games and trophies. That's just my 2 cents worth for now. Edit - I have so many games on different PS consoles, that sometimes when I think too much about it, my head implodes. And I'm certain that many others are in the same boat, and even worse. It may be time to get picky with your purchases etc.
