Since I returned I haven't died after the first 3 characters except for the bard one time. Back in 2016 however I have lost 2 runs on Melody. One because of a warlock. I either died from the hit or the enemy behind it. The other death was in the Necrodancer fight. I got crushed between the wall and a skeleton. I couldn't play the game for several months after those attempts and left it for a while.

I am not very active on forums but after hiding all my games some people have asked me about it and this is the best place to reach everyone that may wonder about it. And the anwer is that I am quiting trophy hunting.
The main reason is that trophy hunting has changed over time and it slowly pushed me away. It is pretty much the norm now that everything has to be all inclusive, nobody should be left out on trophies and yet it is this that make me feel left out. There just isn't much for someone who find most of his joy in overcoming challenging games. It is as if the only thing left are grindy and easy games. Getting tired of doing all the easy spam.
A couple friends rather had me unhide everything again so I did. Have fun and bye.- Show previous comments 2 more

With all due respect, I think you may be overreacting. While trophy hunting has become more inclusive, that doesn't mean that challenging games or difficult trophies are going anywhere. There will always be developers that value a challenge and reflect those values in the trophies they put out.
When you mention "easy spam," I assume you're referring to the long list of easier games that feature ultra rare trophies (which you seem to hunt specifically). If your goal is to maximize your ultra rare count, then I understand why having to force yourself through grindy/easy games would naturally push you away over time. But instead of ditching the trophy hunting scene entirely, taking a break from games that feature grindy/easy ultra rare trophies would be a more sensible approach since you seem to still find joy in overcoming challenging games. -
Why are you doing all the easy spams if its a challenge you seek...
But its all about having fun in the end. Maybe its time to reevaluate the reason to play and what for. You got some amazing games played and even came out fastest time on a lot. Hope you find the reason to still enjoy gaming. A shame to see you quit, but wish you the best whatever challenges in life you'll be going for.

I'm not always in the mood for video games, and trophy hunting can feel like work sometimes. Other times, I'm very much in the mood when playing certain games -- Mark of the Ninja Remastered is my most recent.
When I'm not in the mood, I usually just browse the Internet, watch TV, films, or whatever that I enjoy. I might never quit trophy hunting since it is too good to be left out. Just my cents. And I hope you have a nice day.
