Arcesius Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Hey man, Thanks for the tag, I really enjoyed keeping up with what you started here. And just let me say that I agree with some of the people that wrote before me: it would be a real shame if you decided to leave for good. The situation got a bit out of hand, and was of course accentuated due to questionable moderation. Let's.. not revisit what happened, there have been enough posts and enough drama. Just a shame that a discussion like this one has to be had in a personal checklist. But as you noticed, you have quite a few people that have your back, and if you decide to continue at least with your checklist (even if you decide not to post anywhere else on the forums), be assured that we'd continue to follow you towards your awesome goal But if you still decide to leave.. Just let me wish all the best to you. Take care, and hopefully see you around some other time! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjkclarke Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 (edited) We've never interacted, so I apologise if this seems odd or further derails your thread. I just wanted to send some support and positivity your way. I have read plenty of your posts in this thread though and they are always a great read. It's always nice to see someone working towards a big goal like that. I've only really started actively posting on the forums in the last few months, but I've found it an incredibly welcoming place. So thank you to everyone for that. But this isn't about me.. I want you to know - and I'm sure I'm not the only one that has or will mention this. On the previous page, you mentioned about how you are always nice and complimentary to people, because you appreciated the support, that resonated with me a lot. Honestly, thank you. Thank you for just being nice.. I know that seems like a cop-out thing to say, but kindness literally costs nothing, so it's truly commendable for going out of your way to interact with people in a nice and respectful manner. It's easy enough to hide behind a keyboard, but even on a digital platform words have consequences. The outpouring of support, should tell you that the words you chose to use, have been the right ones. The brightest day for us, might be the darkest day for someone else, so I think we should all go out of our way to be a little nicer.when we can. I'd like to echo @Arcesius' and everyone else's sentiments too - (I won't tag everyone I should, otherwise it will turn into a giant block of blue) and say that if you do leave (I hope you don't) that I wish you all the best. Good luck with your goals, I hope it ends up being an incredibly enjoyable journey, that hopefully we all get to read about.

scemopagliaccioh Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 That’s unfortunate, I don’t think we ever interacted if memory serves, but your journey to a better completion rate and 1,000 Ultra Rares inspired me, DLCs notwithstanding to do the same and better my profile, as soon as I got some more time. It’s the kind of stories I’m most fond of, fictional or otherwise, the resolve to never look back, facing a titanic objective, as, after all, 974 games are no joke and then, slowly, but surely you achieve it. Regardless of what you’ll do after your discussion with the other user, you’re very close to your objective at this point, so, good luck for your final stretch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ_Radio Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 (edited) This just made my heart break a little. I can’t say I was all too sympathetic towards you @The Devils Reaper especially when you were offering sarcasm my way starting a couple years back. But now, after hearing your massive rant on how these forums are being handled, I have to say I’ve been a bit of an ass. I’m just going to say we lost a lot of good people. People whom I had friendly conversations no longer come here anymore, no so much they just moved on, but because they grew tired of the general attitude. In your shoes, I would just leave. You commented me on my Surgeon Simulator platinum so you definitely related in some way. Kinda wish this turned out differently, but that’s life. Eventually we have to move on.

aarnettbraun Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 (edited) On 6/27/2021 at 3:48 AM, The Devils Reaper said: So... @DaivRules You delete my response when I thanked him for his compliment, but ignore the posts that are naming and shaming him? I found that pretty funny after reading your very own guideline rule No 4 “Don’t name and shame” Then you went on with some remarks towards @Baker121 about his feelings being hurt after removing his post? It was appalling to see you resort to that behavior for simply being called out on poor moderation. No different to how @Beyondthegrave07 removed other posts that were showing me support, including ones with me simply thanking members for their kind words. Then had the nerve to send me a PM stating “I really don’t think I need to tell you this” proceeding with a bunch of nonsense about warning points and believing I have “bad blood” with someone that I was just trying to compliment because I genuinely felt sorry for them. Let me fill you in on something. I (along with many others) suffer mentally, but I don’t go around shouting it to the world because I feel extremely uncomfortable sharing such personal information on a site like this, especially with moderators like yourselves. You don’t know shit about me, what I’ve been through or why I game 12 hours a day, and certainly don’t know why it’s the only thing keeping me alive. The support I get in my thread means a lot to me and gives me the confidence in continuing to achieve the difficult goals I set out for myself. That support being removed puts me in a dark place. This is also why I’m so complimentary towards everyone because it’s a nice feeling when somebody notices your achievements, but deleting my posts when I’m thanking people for congratulating me on my profile? You guys are unbelievable… The last page of my thread doesn’t even make any sense now due to being moderated so poorly, there’s no context. Look, apart from finishing up this checklist, I’ve decided to not even bother posting in these forums anymore so could you at least restore my thread to how it was, please? Because you’ve not only ruined my checklist but me along with it. To think this all started over you defending a member that posts nothing but garbage and has a dozen alt accounts used to boost his own rep points... I don't know what happened. However, I empathize with the people who suffer mentally from experiences in life that have traumatized them. I don't feel comfortable sharing personal information about myself anymore due to the lack of trust with others. Especially since I still suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder (among other things) after being falsely accused by my "friends" of something terrible in 2018. My anxiety is now easily triggered by things that you (not you specifically) would probably least expect such as words that remind me of the trauma. Regardless, I want you to do what helps you the most in every aspect of life (especially mentally speaking) even if that includes not visiting PSNProfiles. Congratulations on all of your milestones!

Popular Post The Devils Reaper Posted July 7, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted July 7, 2021 If only I could find the words to express my gratitude for all the kindness and support from everyone on here, it means a lot and I cant thank you enough! @notandrebraun I’m sorry to hear about what you went through mate. Traumatic experiences can change you forever and I know how hard it can be to get life back on track. I’ll PM you shortly. To all providing reassurance that everyone is siding with me and that I shouldn’t let the trolls win, I just want to let you know this drama never had anything to do with lack of support or trolls. This is a great community and the trolls can be a nice form of entertainment. It simply came down to poor moderation on this site, nothing more. Speaking of which… To whoever locked my thread, If you’re too spineless to address what I wrote earlier simply asking for restoration of posts between me and other members complimenting each other’s achievements, the least you could do is not lock my thread. It’s one thing to ignore my comment regarding your actions putting me in a dark place, but another to shut off any further support from members on here. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ_Radio Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 That's definitely an annoying one. With my free time gradually slipping away as I grow older, I might just pick up the oldschool Devil May Cry collection and be done with it.

The rest of the stuff currently hidden is just derailed nonsense and drama now. Nothing that's really supportive or constructive to your checklist.

Popular Post The Devils Reaper Posted August 3, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted August 3, 2021 It’s been a while since my last update, but I’m now halfway through my journey having completed 15 out of the 30 games, and have also reached my second milestone - 1000 Ultra Rares. I know it’s nothing special as there are many trophy hunters on here with far more, but it’s a number I never thought I’d reach. Now I just need to finish up the rest of my games in hoping to finally get my 100% completion back. It’s been nearly 4 years since I’ve seen that percentage, but I get the feeling it’ll take a while longer because I’ve been dying to add a bunch of new games. Never thought my love for trophy hunting would come back but it has, and am also looking forward to gaming with the lads again. I recently browsed the trophy checklist section and noticed a few new ones I must have missed when I was on here last. @yuber1234 @rjkclarke @YaManSmevz @LancashireLad87 @emmajessica12 @realm722 @dmland12 Always good to see more checklists popping up and I wish you all the best on your journeys! @AJ_Radio Nice work on completing Capcom Arcade Cabinet!

I don't have any numbers, but i don't think there is a lot of people over 1000 UR trophies ! When i see all those "top" players with over 1000 platinums but close to no UR trophies.. i have more respect for your 1000 UR than for the 1000 easy platinums ^^ (obviously we (almost) all do easy platinums ... but just not only easy ones ^^) Good luck for the 100% completion !

rjkclarke Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Thanks for the shout out!! Much appreciated. I meant to comment on this sooner, but I sort of forgot. My bad obviously. Also,super congratulations on those 1000 ultra rare trophies. That's very impressive, I'm an insanely long way off of that. Although strictly speaking that isn't my goal, I just kind of go with the flow and play whatever I feel like, if I pick up ultra rares along the way great, if I don't - I've usually still had a great time. I did make a semi arbitrary goal in my own thread to try and get 300UR's and 1000VR's by the end of the year. But I doubt that's likely to happen unless I decided to exclusively play Star Ocean for the rest of the year ? who knows, I'm closing in on the 1000 a little bit haha. I'm really happy to see that all of this seems to have reignited your love for trophy hunting. That's really awesome to hear. I'll really be just echoing what others have been saying, but you've got some incredible gaming achievements to your name, you should absolutely be proud of. So it will be awesome to hear about any more that you decide to pursue in the future. I look forward to reading about them. Good luck with your remaining goals. Looks like you've got the concise reviewing thing down.

For real though, the level of detail both you guys go into is phenomenal! I just read your first impressions on Agents of Mayhem.. Oh god, ill explain in my next post ? Hey everyone! Wanna hear about my most recent epic failure? I was so close… 99.91% completion with only Death Stranding and Unravel Two left to finish up. A grind and a few speedruns away from getting my 100% back… After my third gold medal in Unravel I really started to get a feel for the game and knew it was in the bag. My 4-year plan of crawling back to finish everything up was coming to fruition, and then BOOM! I got this feeling that I’d start cherry-picking once it came to an end, playing it safe and avoiding some great games due to their difficulty or online requirement. So, I thought “fuck it” I’m going to add the biggest batch of games to date, stuff I really want to play that’s either filled with online or challenging trophies. I went from 28 unearned trophies to 1827 in a day, and who knows how long this run is going to take. There are even a couple of games with only a handful of achievers and no guides or info on them whatsoever (so nerve-wracking). I’m getting there in terms of age as well so there’s a lot of self-doubt that I won’t have what it takes to finish it all up either. My reflexes certainly aren’t improving so if there were ever a time to get this shit done, it’s now. I know the experience is all that matters, but when you have messed up ocd that comes with a “never give up” mentality, it's hard not to let nerves take over. Quick shout out to ma boys @adam1984123 @Drag-On-Detritus and our most recent addition to the crew @CrestfallenAU for joining me on a fair few of these games, it’s gonna be one hell of a ride! Never thought id meet a bunch of cool guys on here that id eventually talk to on a daily basis. It’s one thing having “gaming buddies” but the fact I could sit down and have a beer with these lads and talk shit about anything is something else entirely. This brings me to my next point. A bunch of the games I added all came from another set of cool people that run the checklist corner of these forums. I decided on picking a couple from a few of them, for many different reasons. From their kick-ass reviews to just simply knowing they have great taste in gaming. I'm only going to list the games I picked from you guys. I'll eventually list the rest in my original post, or if anyone is curious, feel free to check my profile cause I've popped a trophy in all of them. In no particular order, this is what I went with! @Copanele Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN ~ Guilty Gear Xrd Revelator ~ Slain: Back from hell While I may dip my fingers in all genres, fighting would have to be my favourite. I mainly stick with the Street Fighters and Mortal Kombats but have also done a Soul Cailbur, Dragon Ball Z and maybe a couple of others I can't even think of right now (Too many games). The Guilty/Blaz series has always caught my eye but I literally know nothing about them. So why not kick them off when I have the fighter god here as support? Slain was an easy choice, I've got so many of these old-school side scrollers so I need to start going through them. @yuber1234 Blazblue Chronophantasma Extend ~ Blazblue Centralfiction ~ Catherine: Full body Same as above in terms of the fighting games, but your checklist is actually the one that made me kick all these off my guy! I did that Blazblue Cross Tag Battle a few years ago but i remember that trophy list being a joke and it all went too quickly, really looking forward to the combo trials in these. Catherine was an interesting one, like what genre would you even put that in? Seeing you smash through it and Copanele complain about it was enough to include this bad boy. Besides, Japanese degeneracy is always a plus and the story looks pretty funny. @DrBloodmoney Prey ~ Rad ~ Hitman 2 Does Prey even need an intro? It being one of your favourite games was more than enough to add it (nuff said). I love twin-stick shooters and I liked your review on Rad so I had to throw it in (even though your combined total of 76 runs sounds insane) You got such a fast completion on it for the rng shit show that it is.. As for Hitman 2? I've owned it for ages but really didn't want to go through all the original missions again. On top of that, it bothers me that you have to look at a guide for so many of those masteries, ruins the immersion BUT your love for the series and talented ass writing skills can make anyone go ahead with a game ? I was so close to picking Invisible Inc mate, but that game just looks way too complex for me, can't believe you found it so easy! Oh, and remember I said id hit you up after I was done with Dishonoured? That bonfire map took me 8 fucking hours to 3 star on both difficulties and get the daredevil trophy. The most intense FPS platforming iv seen. @Arcesius Wuppo ~ Juton ~ Deaths Gambit Your list is pretty much just filled with insanely challenging stuff man, so I went with ones that I think I may have the ability to complete. I like Wuppo's art style and from what I've read, a lot of love went into it. Juton falls under that too I suppose, seems to have really good reviews across the board, so had to add it. Deaths Gambit was a simple choice once I discovered it was a soulsbourne side scroller, and again, with really good artwork. @Baker Devil May Cry 5 ~ Shiness The Lightning Kingdom ~ Trials of the Blood Dragon DMC 5 is probably one of my most anticipated games so had to be done. I won't lie though, seeing you complete stuff like SMB and Trials but leaving DMC unfinished is making me sweat a bit ? I went with Shiness because I don't play RPG's anywhere near as much as I should. Final Fantasy 7 is really what got me into gaming like a mad man. Trials of the Blood Dragon? I know everyone says its shit but (you guys won't like this) the events that aren't on a bike, look pretty fun to me ? @rjkclarke Agents of Mayhem All I'm going to say is, I wish I had waited for your first impressions review that just went up ? Sounds pretty bad... Would you say it's even worth the $3 price tag? @Destructor-8 Isle of Man TT 2 See what I did here? I know you don't have this on your list but you do have the original, and that was soul-destroying. Easily the hardest racer for me, Trackmania doesn't really count so I won't include that. Anyway, I cant wait to hear the god-spec racer's thoughts on it and hope you eventually pick up the second one. I've owned it for a while but it was your new epic checklist that motivated me to add it! @KindaSabbath Trials Rising Sorry for the random tag dude, and I know I could've just picked this game from one of the boys above, but it was you that made me pick up the Trials series. Your love for this shit was a mad read, on top of you finding it hard to move onto another game after it, so I couldn't pass them up. Mad props on you completing them so quickly as well, impressive! I get the feeling it's gonna take me ages to get used to this series though... @AJ_Radio Mighty No 9 I only picked this so I can see how over-exaggerated all your complaining is Spaz ? Lastly, I just want to thank all you guys for putting in the effort that you do in your checklists. I know for a fact I wouldn't have pulled the trigger on any of these games if it wasn't for you fine lads and your threads. Ultimately, this is what they should be about, sharing great experiences with other trophy hunters so they don’t miss out. Unlike my poor excuse of a checklist that contains nothing but drama and statistics, heck it doesn’t even have a name ? Speaking of which, any suggestions as to what I should change it to? Even the stats in the title are irrelevant now. I'll be gaming more casually going forward, so there won't be many progress updates from me at all, but will definitely do a write-up for the games I picked from you guys if/when I eventually get them done. Thanks again and take care! Edited September 27, 2021 by The Devils Reaper 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
