Platinum Difficulty Challenge 2022 (CLOSED)

[stuthesheep]

Another one in the books.

 

1.

2. Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice  26/1

3. Assassin's Creed: Origins  12/1

4.

5. Mass Effect: Andromeda  1/3

6.

7.

8.

9.

10.

 

 

Andromeda has spent the last 4.5 years idling at the bottom of my profile, but finally now at the top end. I can't remember exactly why I gave up on it so early on, probably due to a lack of patience over a pretty slow prologue and being influenced by too much interwebs hate at the time but I ended up really enjoying it, so much so I'm actually a little sad it's over. 

 

I notice that some places (PlatPrices) have it as a 7/10 - no chance of that. Follow a guide for the two major missable trophies (hell, even one of those is across all playthroughs rather than just one) and a sensible NG+ build for the hardest difficulty run and it's not difficult at all. I even had to check a couple of times that I had the right difficulty setting on, there were only a couple of areas that took more than two attempts. It's an easy option for 7/10 if you need one and have a spare 60-70 hours for some of the more grindy trophies. 5 is probably about right though.

 

Next!

Hello everyone first time chatter, long time lurker and I thought this would be a pretty fun challenge to get into.

This is my list
1/10 - Zero Time Dilemma
2/10 - Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars
3/10 - Pyre
4/10 - Transistor
5/10 - Salt & Sanctuary
6/10 - Hades
7/10 - Bastion
8/10 - Cuphead
9/10 - La-Mulana
10/10 - Hollow Knight

I am hoping this challenge really kicks me into gear with playing some more challenging games I have been putting off for a long time.

Another month, another plat... or two... or four! A good month for me when it comes to this challenge as I finished up Voice of Cards and completed the first three Supergiant games. I'm still amazed Supergiant just keeps getting better and better with each new game and with how much I loved Pyre I can't wait to start Hades. Elden Rings recently came out so I have been chipping away at that slowly, but right now its on the back burner as I start focusing up on Hades and Cuphead. I may actually be able to finish this before June if I can keep up this momentum!

[Tuxy_Wuxy_]

I'm in, lets do this.

 

Games are undecided, I'll figure them out on the way.

I have recently finished my 5/10 being Jump Force for the PS4.

 

Overall, I enjoyed most of the game and the fanservice of the many different characters from shonen jump history. The online was annoying long and getting the s-ranks for hard and above missions were a pain but I still enjoyed the experience. I also finished the DLC for Resident Evil 6 (PS4) as I try to complete as many 100%s on my account as possible and it was most definitely a slog, especially the siege mode being the worst and the longest out of the four DLCs.

 

Here is an update to my 1-10 list:

 

1/10 – Road Bustle (Asian Version) (PS4) (Done)

2/10 – One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows (PS4)

3/10 – Zone of the Enders The 2nd Runner (PS4)

4/10 – Resident Evil 6 (PS4) (Platinum and 100% Done)

5/10 – Jump Force (PS4) (Done)

6/10 – Batman Arkham Asylum (PS4)

7/10 – Persona 4 Arena Ultimax (PS3) (Plus DLC) or Marvel Vs Capcom 3 (PS3)  - (Still deciding which one atm)

8/10 – Devil May Cry 1 HD

9/10 – Sonic Unleashed (PS3)

10/10 – Wolfenstein 2 The New Colossus (PS4) (Plus DLC)

 

Hello everyone,

 

I have recently completed Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart for the PS5 which is rated a 2/10 acoording to the guide on PSNProfiles and therefore is contributing to my 2022 platinum challenge.

For my list, I changed two games on my list to others, this is currently the games I want to complete.

Sup guys! 

 

I know a lot of us recently got Horizon Forbidden West and/or Elden Ring. Their first trophy guides and difficulty ratings are now ready from PowerPyx so if you'd like to use these games for the challenge you can.

 

Horizon Forbidden West - 3/10 >>> https://www.powerpyx.com/horizon-forbidden-west-trophy-guide-roadmap/

Elden Ring - 7.5/10 (Can be counted as a 7 or an 8) >>> https://www.powerpyx.com/elden-ring-trophy-guide-roadmap/

Would love to participate, since I am about to beat Street Fighter 4 but i doubt that I will even touch a 9 after that ?.

Welcome aboard! Street Fighter 4 is a 10/10 so you'd definitely be starting off on the right foot! lol If you do your 10/10 then 1-6 you'd still finish the challenge with Bronze so go for it!

Alright, I think I will give it a try. Let me just think of some games

[Deadly_Ha_Ha]

1/10 Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life Special Edition (PlatPrices)

2/10 New Gundam Breaker (PST)

3/10 Dragon Quest Builders (PST)

4/10 Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII (PST)

5/10 Final Fantasy XIII (PSNP)

6/10 Mobile Suit Gundam Extreme Vs. Maxi Boost ON (PSNP)

7/10 Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove (PST)

8/10 Titan Souls (PST)

9/10 Nuclear Throne (PST)

10/10 Wuppo (PlatPrices)

 

Ok so I did decide to change the list once again. I feel kind of dumb doing that over and over but as time passes I have plans forming for my account and I'd like to both follow through on those plans and participate here. I switched out Final Fantasy XIII for Final Fantasy XII and Lightning Returns for Transistor. I would have also switched out Final Fantasy XIII-2 for Dragon Quest Builders but I already did Builders so w/e. Anyway I'm planning on doing the FF XIII trilogy one right after another starting with FFXIII as my 60th plat. I was just starting to do Wuppo but I decided to do Babylon's Fall instead and then will likely do Stranger of Paradise which will be my 58th and 59th plats. Wuppo was starting out really well but I'll just have to wait on it a while longer.

Hello again everyone,

 

After getting the platinum for Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart for the PS5 yesterday, I decided to go back to Ratchet & Clank for the PS4 and get the platinum for this game, while I am having a lot of fun playing Ratchet and Clank games for now.

 

Aside from the obviously annoying 'Death by Disco' trophy that made my clean up time a total of around 10 hours and was nerve-racking during my third playthrough, I still had a great time with the clean-up and with this game overall.

 

Also, with this game done, I have finished all the games from the 1/10 to the 5/10 as this game is rated a 3/10, which is both great as I have been working towards this challenge since the start of the year. At the same time though, I am nervous as the harder games await me now for this challenge.

 

Here is an update to my 1-10 list:

 

1/10 – Road Bustle (Asian Version) (PS4) (Done)

2/10 – Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart (PS5) (Done)

3/10 – Ratchet & Clank (PS4) (Done)

4/10 – Resident Evil 6 (PS4) (Platinum and 100% Done)

5/10 – Jump Force (PS4) (Done)

6/10 – Table Top Racing; World Tour (PS4) (Plus DLC)

7/10 – Persona 4 Arena Ultimax (PS3) (Plus DLC)

8/10 – Devil May Cry 1 HD (PS4)

9/10 – Sonic Unleashed (PS3)

10/10 – Wolfenstein 2 The New Colossus (PS4) (Plus DLC)

 

Good luck to everyone else!

Decided to remove the games and leave 4-9 blank until I can get some good games that I like to play.

[Deadly_Ha_Ha]

Went back to Wuppo. Babylon's Fall turned out to be a logistical nightmare for me so I cancelled my order. I played the demo and it actually is a cool game but it just isn't the right time for it. Wuppo has been good though

[DrBloodmoney]

I'm starting to wonder if I need to start thinking about a different 10/10...

 

...I have S or SS rank in virtually every mode of Tetris Effect, and can feel myself getting better at all of them... except bloody Sprint Mode!

 

I can't even manage an A rank on that one, let alone hope for SS rank! I seem to be at a complete impasse plateau, unable to improve my time no matter what I do, and after 30 hours of nothing but Sprint, I think I might have to accept my defeat!  ?

[Tirmata]

1) Ark Survival Evolved - 1/10 - Pending

2) Celeste - 2/10 - Pending

4) Mafia 2 - 4/10 - Done

? I applaud your confidence, and wish I shared it!

 

I love the game, so I'll be still plugging away at it anyways, so always possible, but it's looking rather unlikely!

 

On the plus side, my possible 9/10 - Hollow Knight - is obviously a 10/10 on some site, as I've seen it used for a few people's speculative 10/10 - so that can be a backup for me I suppose ...

...I would love that Tetris plat though...

This is a shame, I was ready to drop Cuphead the second I saw the guide was a 7.5 too. More fun games to be played either way.
