BlindMango Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 (edited) On my VITA trophy overview I can already see the trophylist for episode 2. Bunch of bronze and silver trophies, but no gold one for finishing it. My guess it is a "standard" trophy list that we will get bit by bit with each new episode. Yeah, episode two is an "add-on/DLC" trophy set to the main set connected to the main trophy set. So in this case, there won't be a platinum added later down the line. Well this is gonna be annoying because I'm sorta "OCD" with my trophy list on PSN Profiles this is gonna be a non-platinum game with a ton of points and it will have a green background color in-between a bunch of other platinumed games with blue background color, haha, I know it's a really stupid problem EDIT: I actually just calculated it and if the rest of the episodes follow the same format as episode 2 does then it will stay with the green games and be like 100 points less than my lowest point blue game... This is a really sad problem I have, lmao That's so dumb how the first game had a platinum yet this one doesn't! I really wish they would have formatted the trophies like the first game was because you're gonna get them all at the same point in time anyway (assuming the reason for no platinum is because the trophies actually have descriptions and that could lead to spoilers).

SaltySoph Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I had a look on my vita as well and no gold trophies for episode two, which they have always done for completing an episode, so who knows if they will decide to put a plat in the game if they are changing gold trophies to silver ones. Just my thoughts anyway.. I don't really care just want to play the story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goro Posted March 4, 2014 Author Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) Looks like the rest of the episodes will be added as DLC. I don't think they can add a platinum in as DLC though so that sucks. Edited March 4, 2014 by Goro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MatCauthon Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 It indeed looks like there will not be a plat for this game, at least for the PS3 version. Sucks, but I'm playing it anyway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still haven't entirely given up on that platinum. If they continue in the same fashion for the next episodes, they'll end up with 1065 points. An average game hast 975 to 1050 points without the platinum. So why shouldn't it have one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanMakesGames Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I'm going to wait until it has all been released. Just so i can play all episodes at once rather than having a long wait for them to be released. i have the first one platinum three times now, ps3 eu/JP versions and ps vita. can't wait until this game is fully released though!

lporiginalg Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Why not? Games are given platinums based on their scope, or size. This is a very small scope game. It's possible Sony approved the plat for the first without knowing what a simple point and click game this was and have decided in hindsight not to allow the sequel to have a platinum so that other devs don't start in on the trend of trying to give away platinums for money. It's also possible tho that what other people are saying in this thread is true and that TellTale will release a separate version with platinum afterwards. If that's the case I sure won't be early adopting anymore new releases from TellTale. http://gearnuke.com/former-sony-dev-comments-outlasts-missing-platinum-trophy-explains-trophy-allocation-works/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clairvoyant_666 Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 All Trophies was available ad launch of the First episode. Just look ad The Wolf Among Us So the Platinum was already there since the first chapter? Waiting for the moment all the remaining chapters came out and you finished them all?

I don't think so, why would they start doing this now? Plenty of smaller games than TWD release with a platinum trophy. The 'simple point and click game' you refer to was also many peoples game of the year, the Vita release had a platinum and The Wolf Among Us also. Another theory is they simply have not written the conclusion to the season yet so would not be able to include a finished trophy list. Just speculating as I haven't followed the development of this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lporiginalg Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Plenty of smaller games than TWD release with a platinum trophy. The 'simple point and click game' you refer to was also many peoples game of the year... How much people enjoy the game is completely irrelevant to the discussion. I wast just reading a thread on Brothers:ATOTS where someone called it their game of the year, that doesn't mean it deserves a platinum. I agree that, assuming TWAU is basically the same thing as TWD then it does seem weird they would award a plat to that then not TWD2. Also I'm wondering what much smaller games then TWD that have plats you are referring to. What Kenny Linder says in the article I provided might be pure heresay on some random internet site but it does line up with what we've been seeing over the last 12 months and honestly under those criteria Telltale's TWD simply doesn't deserve a platinum trophy no matter how many tears it makes you shed.

silverstag88 Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I still think this game is going to have a platinum. The platinum will be released along with the trophies for episode 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing as all Telltale games since have included a platinum (as far as I know) and with TWD being TT's most popular game, also one of the most eagerly awaited psn games, It would be a strange time for Sony to imply this no platinum rule.

lporiginalg Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Poker Night At The Inventory 2 doesn't have a platinum and, not to sound like a broken record, but popularity is not a factor of consideration when looking at the scope of a game.

Artemisthemp Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I still think this game is going to have a platinum. The platinum will be released along with the trophies for episode 5. Highly doubt full since, patching in Platinum could lead to people losing their earn trophies. Same reason Contrast have only Bronze Trophies and no Silver or Gold trophies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this were the case, neither Back to the Future nor the Wolf Among Us (games made by Telltale that are similar in size, style, and scope) would have been awarded Platinums. If I had to guess, this was probably a decision made internally at Telltale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pandairo Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 BTTF and TWAU both have missable trophies, whereas TWD awards the platinum simply for playing through the game, maybe that's the difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had to guess, this was probably a decision made internally at Telltale. Eh, what are you saying is innacurate, that games need to be large enough in scope to be awarded platinum trophies, or that this the reason TWD2 does`t have one. The first part, that games must be large, is more fact than theory as it has been said by multiple developers on the interwebs, you just need to look around. As for if this is the reason TWD2 doesn`t have a platinum well all we can do is speculate so again you can`t really call it inaccurate. As for everybody pointing at BTTF, come on guys, that game came out in 2010, the rules have evolved over the years and it`s pointless to look at games from more than 12 months ago in this discussion. I dunno why TWAU would get one and TWD2 but I do know that TWD and TWD2 should not have platinums based on Sony`s policy of larger games versus smaller ones, TWD and TWD2 are smaller games, plain and simple. http://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2014/01/07/futurlab-explains-what-it-takes-for-a-downloadable-psn-game-to-get-a-platinum-trophy-from-sony/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cryax Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 If im right, im not sure as I have not played it, they have not released all of the episodes.
