#92 Neptunia x SENRAN KAGURA: Ninja Wars
1st Neptunia game I've Platnumed and made 1st achievers list on PS4 console. Similar to when I played my very 1st Nep entry back in 2013 with Victory on PS3.
To think this was only possible because Idea Factory International was generous enough to give me a code for the digital version this week(after LEs were delayed to 11/8).
On top of that my burnout for Genshin Impact came just at the right time, cus both games kinda play similar except Ninja Wars has 4 skills but doesn't(and NEEDS IMO) have a way to animation cancel out of Ninja skills/attacks. Like Genshin's dash or hops. I noticed it's on Ver. 1.01 so maybe when Compile add more DLC like say CPU Candidates, they'll fix some of those vulnerable openings a poorly timed/spaced Ninja skill can cause. Otherwise just rely on skills with I frames like Nep's Glossy Purple or Kunai/Shuriken for the aggressive Melee/Rambo gunner mobs. Story is pretty meh, but the gameplay despite my suggestion is still fun once you've adjusted and calculate when to attack. Guarding is pretty generous with stamina replenishes leading to more Ninja options. Always feel encouraged to purchase consumable items and synch Spirit Gems from shop. Peaches & Cream Meditation is pretty RNG based, but when the characters stays still...you should probably leave it and pray it's on the edge. If so, leave it there!

I was standing near the Random event spawn spot in Genshin Impact, then put the event page up. Left it there for a good few minutes as I resumed Evangelion. Came back to playing, and randomly a shit load of trophies started unlocking. At 1st I thought they were making battle pass DLC like trophies, but it seams they're of stuff anyone can do. But yeah they added a lot of trophies this 1.5 meaning they'll be adding more down the line.

Yup! You'd be eligible to get both off any of the 2 versions, this is why cross-buy titles are priced the same in opposed to PS4 costing $10 extra.

#89 Pyre
The weird trend where I manage to plat a Supergiant Games title in 4 days continues.
TBH this game terrified me with its amount of missable trophies. I 1st tried playing blind(like I did Bastion), till I got hit with my 1st Liberation Rite. Finding out I permanently lose 1 of my 3 highest ranked characters. And since I'm mostly using the more efficient/broken characters/w trial talismans. I had to plan ahead of time who I'd wanna discard, and work around which lesser efficient Exiles. Strategically characters you really don't wanna Liberate are Pamitha(easily Pyre's most broken character), Bertrude, or Grey girl. Pam, Ber, and Ti'zo's trial talismans can be busted at Lv 20. Grey girl has an enchanted earned skill, where she gets infinite stamina when holding the orb. Don't think I need to remind anyone that you can use the Beyond crystal's practice runs to pop those 200 Pyre trophies.

Felt the same about Bastion & Transistor. And I get where you're coming from with Pyre. I'm not good with visual novels either, despite Muv-Luv kinda strengthening my patience. However I can see its journey eventually coming off as dull after your say 3rd Liberation Rite doing the exact same thing towards their "plan". This is probably why they attempt to give you a chance to pick who you'd wanna face, progressing certain party member's lore with other team leaders. While offering more limitations on top. However at times it seamed too limiting. Given that eventually you're forced to discard potential best, if you're not cautious enough to remember adding those less efficient characters during Rites for Enchantment balance.
For instance try imagining beating those Harps with all 12 titans active, and having to include Volfred on your team.
As to did I enjoy the game, I'd say more or less. Definitely didn't hate it, but I'll admit felt quite tedious given that the fear of screwing yourself out of a missable trophy lingered.

#87 Transistor & #88 Bastion
I always wanted to play Transistor when I 1st saw its gorgeous footage back in 2014. Just never had a PS4 at the time till recently this year.
Transistor was actually the easier game to plat, cus of how finding the right build can just make you almost unstoppable even against bosses who get rekt by a simple.
Triple Void debuff, Crash, Purge, and double Cull+Spark/w turn.
Bastion had quick levels with an awesome Narrator, but boy that Stranger's dream wave fest with all Idols is just quite rage inducing if I'm gonna be honest here. That's practically what'll make or break you from achieving its Plat.
Haven't seen such an obnoxious selection of enemy advantages like that in who knows how long.
After playing both games, I've become quite a fan of Supergiant Games. Definitely gonna get their Hades title when it releases this year.
I'll probably try Pyre next when I add funds to buy it.
P.S. I actually laughed when I found out I plat both Transistor & Bastion in roughly 4 days

#86 ICEY
I thought it was a neat, and simple game. With a fun combat system.
Liked the narrator at 1st, but his sarcasm just got pretty annoying over time.
I appreciate its creative approach towards breaking that 4th wall tho.

Thanks everyone!
@mako-heart Those Marionette Theater trophies were quite a drag. I legit got mad during "People Are Pigs" because he not only stalls so much, but if you accidentally press
after choosing "No" a 3rd time he'll send you off(towards the final boss).
Making me redo it, and again for a 3rd time when I put my controller down flickering either
or .
I saw IBadDriverI's video prior to platnuming this game, and wanted to aim towards that fastest leaderboard spot.
Which I still got regardless of those screw ups, and dying against Dahal. However still feel I could've done it in under 2 hours placing at least 3rd had it not been for those final redos.
But I'm fine with a 6th spot out of 50.
ICEY is a game I've been wanting to play for a while, given how it feels like a 2D DMC/w near unlimited dashes(cus they regen quite fast outside of battle).

Yup! Eventually orb patterns become visible with minor waves having a slight alteration by red/s. Which you just have to adapt on the fly. I think they give enough time to move about tho, but at certain occasions either navigate slow or back to properly squeeze through. If you're about to get trapped by a mass spread, I'd at least recommend tanking 1 orb in apposed to getting all 3 whiped out there. I was able to beat the boss without getting hit on both versions, so going in with 2 hearts is fine IMO.

#84 Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes
This is both my Lv. 25 and birthday
As a big Suda51 fan, I simply felt like I had to milestone this gem of a game highlighting Suda's career.
I've heard this game's Soundtrack a few times last year, and thought it was good. However after playing it so much realized, it's actually an amazing soundtrack perfectly fitting every single aspect presented. It honestly blew me away!

Model Warrior Julianne took me like 2 hours on Vita, and 30 minutes on PS4 after being familiar. Lower right safe zone works for both versions despite PS4's looking like you're gonna make contact. I usually get ready to leave after I see a snake like formation with 2 reds at its end. Followed by another 1 using only greens. Eventually flooding the screen, but once done disperse leaving more than enough space to reach left center. Just keep shooting at all times, and try focusing your sight not on green enemies but around Julianne...unless red waves show up. Just taking out 1 of them during these final phases makes a difference. This silly mini game has no i frames when hit to at least offer a chance to survive or escape traps. Meaning if you're caught by a big string of orbs(mostly caused by reds), then there's a chance it could wipeout out all 3 hearts. 1 thing I found weird was how Vita let you shot holding or , but PS4 only uses . IMO felt more comfy and offered better positioning to properly navigate Julianne. I kinda noticed the boss can be more persistent in Vita, but on PS4 her orb phases feel more tame. Actually got confused when I saw soo many openings towards the right side, where I could just hog it and pick my attempts during her slower showers. Regardless it honestly wasn't that hard, like I was anticipating it to be.
