Uncharted 2

You guys, I did it. After four hours with Lazarovic on Saturday, then dropping my controller and taking my dog to play outside, I came back in and BEAT HIM. He was really difficult for me on normal mode, so I’m pretty proud of myself! Crushing is complete, although I’m not sure if I’m motivated to go back to UC 3.  Now that I have the plat, I might call this done. I’d like to work on a few other games before going for 100%, if I do decide to go for it. For that, I have to do the full speedrun, and I would probably need to use the cheats for Brutal, which is going to take some organizing.

 

You should totally go for UC3 and UC4 for that back to back stack.

I'm kidding bro. I'm just instigating. I'm just a lousy trophy hunter. Go ahead and play what you enjoy. It's always good to take a break from a franchise. You tend to get burned out real quick when it's this many games one after the other.

OOF hahaha. I love how it looks on a profile, but definitely not my cup of tea. I usually avoid playing back to back from the same franchise because I do get tired of them. UC isn't as bad as other series, since the games themselves aren't very long (here's looking at you, Kingdom Hearts and new AC games), but since you have to play through each game a couple times, I prefer to break it up with other games, otherwise it gets boring. And brutal for 100%, blehhhhggg.

Yeah. That's why I'm a lousy trophy hunter ? I don't and just go for it. First to see how the story ends, and 2nd, to stack them all together ? Unless it's Lost Legacy and  Wolfenstein Youngblood, where they completely change the main character ? Then I don't really care.

[beerwego]

Been a slow start but I'm off and running now ...Got the platinum in Man-eater.

Really enjoyed this, a different change of pace and happy with the cost (free from ps plus )....although I'm going to wait for a sale on the dlc before I get that.Onto Shadow Warrior 3 

A Plague Tale Innocence 0%

Maneater  0%......>83%

Far Cry 6... 1%

Danganronpa 2.....22%......>28%

Shadow Warrior 3.....0%.....>12%

[Zvetiki]

First completion; have been stuck with Tsushima and GT7 for most of the time, but the Platinum in Tsushima should be just around the corner, and I'm mostly done with GT7 as well.

 

* Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy  PS4 (43% → 100%)
* Root Double -Before Crime * After Days- Xtend Edition PSV (15% → 25%)

* Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning PS4 (1%)

* Costume Quest 2 PS3 (0%)
* Psychedelica of the Black Butterfly PSV (0%)
* Valkyria Chronicles 4 PS4 (0%)

 

Swaps used: 0/2

 

Spoiler

The Ace Attorney Trilogy consists of three games which were originally released on the GBA or 3ds. I had no prior expectations, but they turned out to be quite interesting courtroom/trial adventure games. Each game on its own is an enjoyable experience, with a reasonable length. The bundle should not be played in one go, because then the gameplay over the three games is just too repetitive. But in small doses stretched out over some months, I would recommend it for anyone looking for humorous adventure games with quite a bit of paranormal activity in such a setting (assuming the player is not opposed to grossly exaggerated characters, to the point that they become mere caricatures).

Update 3

 

Hi guys, hope you've all had a great week of gaming ?. I have made a fair bit of progress this week, although I was hoping to be a bit further along.

 

Most of my week has been playing Assassin's Creed Unity. I managed to get through all of the story sequences, and do a fair amount of the miscellaneous trophies. This game just has waaaay too many collectables. I've been going round collecting the cockades and the chests I've seen and I thought I was doing pretty well. Then I bought the collectable map with my helix credits, and that was a bit of a shock. That map is now a cluttered mess of all the collectables still to find....lol ?. I'll keep chipping away at this during the week, also have the co op missions and heists to do, the social club missions and the DLC. Hopefully will have this wrapped up soon.

 

I'm also playing Catherine. I started up another new game to get the NPC trophies I'd previously missed, and decided to go full chaos for this run to unlock some more of the endings. Still struggling with Menhir though. I spent 5 hours on it last night, and a couple of times I was about 10-15 steps away from the top but unfortunately didn't make it. I'll keep trying though ?

 

Happy hunting everyone ?

 

Trophy progress:

Assassin's Creed Unity - 13 -> 67%

Catherine - 48 -> 57%

[StilRh]

Hi guys. Excellent updates, I really look forward to reading them on days I'm too busy to play myself. This week I started off quite well but then work has taken over as it usually does. Deep Rock Galactic continues to be a blast, only have to prestige the scout class now. It's playstyle hasn't gripped me yet but I'm sure a bit more time will change that. Dying Light 2 has seen me complete the story and most of the collectables, I still have to find open world graffiti which I think with some nice pocast/audiobook help I can enter a chill flow state and find it all. Getting 1 million in currency and running 960km are a bit cheap so I may use rubberband trick/exploits to help with the grind if they've not been patched out. Horrizon Forbidden West continues to be fun, I'm playing it in small chunks at the moment as to not get open world burn out and miss the incredible world building. Sakura continues to delight me and I'm finding even more nuance in combat and farming. Muvluv is still being chipped away at. Going through a sub chapter a night, I think I'm close to the next trophy.

 

This week I need to wrap up things with my patients (I keep getting asked to cover the hospital admin/co-ordinator role which is nice but at the cost of clinical time on my ward) before my next week off work so I'm not sure what I'll be playing just yet. Have a good week all

Deep Rock Galactic 36% > 40%

Update #3

 

After back to back SOLID updates, here I come with a shitty one ?? Not much going. Progress for Oddworld: Soulstorm is going very slow. While the mechanics, gameplay and graphics feel so good, I just can't get into it. Perhaps, it's just me and the story is slow at the beginning. Either way, this update is mostly about updating my game list. I was gonna use one of my swap for Operation: Tango but mom didn't raise no bitch ? so I think I'll create a session and do it before the game's event. Doesn't seem like a long game anyways. 

 

- Middle-Earth: Shadow of War (19% => 100%)

- My Name is Mayo 2 (0% => 100%)

- Operation: Tango (0%)

- Oddworld: New N' Tasty (0% => 100%)

- Oddworld: Soulstorm (0% => 9%)

 

New games added:

 

- Ratchet & Clank (0%)

- South Park: The Fractured but Whole (0%)

 

I have a trip coming up soon and I'll hardly do any gaming, if any. Don't worry though. I'll still stalk y'all and see everyone's progress so keep up the great work ??

[DizzyDavidson]

Hey everyone!

I kind of skipped an update because my brother was visiting and we had some fun times. Even hit up some gaming shops that set back my backlog a bit.

I still kept reading the daily updates and I see some of you have put in some good progress.

I haven't exactly been slacking either... knocking out my first game and stuff...

 

Update:

 

• Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep: A Wonderlands One-shot Adventure [PS4] - 0% -> 73%
• Persona 5 Strikers [PS4] - 55% -> 100%
• Enslaved: Odyssey to the West [PS3] - 0%
• Team Sonic Racing [PS4] - 7%
• The Saboteur [PS3] - 0%

 

I managed to finish Persona 5 Strikers just before my brother arrived. I only planned on wrapping up the story but the post game stuff wasn't that much more thanks to maxing out the 'bond' before. My save file said I played for 90 hrs (I was AFK/idle for about 15 hrs) but it didn't feel like it went on for that long. I guess time flies when you're having fun (with a game). Great game btw if you couldn't tell from my ramblings.

Then I started playing Tiny Tina. I couldn't really put much effort into it 'til a few days ago but then I really started going at it. I pretty much did everything with my main character (gunzerker) and just trying to level up to 35. Then I have to do the other character related trophies and hopefully find a 'chubby' to kill by then.

 

My plan is to finish Tiny Tina by the end of the month but if it gets too repetitive having to play with all the characters I might switch to another game.

 

Well, until next time.

See ya!

Update #3

• The Pedestrian - 0%
• Detroit: Become Human - 4%

Swaps (1/2)

- Sekiro ➡️ The Pedestrian

 

Complete(1/5)

 

Finished off Horizon Forbidden West, which was a very good game. Can't say much about my thoughts on it without spoilers so mostly just that. It was basically Horizon: Zero Dawn, but with so many improvements and the story I think was better. That's counting the backstory of the world of the game being separate from the story of Zero Dawn.

 

Think I'm going to work on The Pedestrian next to de-stress a bit, Elden Ring invaders are making me really mad ?

Update #3

 

 Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition (PS4) - Swap 1/2

Recommendation: Play for story // Avoid for platinum

I really enjoyed the single player campaign for this game.  It was my first exposure to the Tomb Raider franchise, and I look forward to getting after the rest of the trilogy.  As far as the platinum goes, it can be a tough one.  If you are not a fan of multiplayer trophies, then avoid this title.  First, with the servers being unpopulated, you need 4 people to get the ranked win trophies.  Then grinding to level 60 can be a 15+ hour trial if done solo.  Thankfully I had a boosting partner and got done in around 6.  The only other issue I had with the plat were the collectibles.  Some 171 collectibles in total.  They wouldn't have been so bad if I did it on a second playthrough.  There were just so many that it broke the emersion in what I considered a well paced and enjoyable story.  The game is short enough that you should consider 2 playthroughs (1 blind, 1 collectibles) if you want to enjoy it the most.  The game is constantly on sale for $3, and the trilogy is around $20, so it is great value for the money, especially if you don't have to have the plat, or 100% completion.  (approx 186 deer were killed in the farming of single player xp to finish off the platinum)

 

Other Progress:

Elden Ring 11% --> 22%  This game doesn't need any more praise than it receives.  It is worth it.  Great value for the money.  Especially if you are not going for the plat.  So many mini-bosses that anyone should be able to work towards and defeat and enjoy such a beautifully constructed world.  I have probably only seen half of it.  You can make this game much easier just by over-leveling, which can be done via rune duplication.  Don't hesitate, go do it!

 

The Last of Us Remastered 15% --> 26%  I've focused solely on the multiplayer aspect of this game, as if I only have 20-30 minutes to play, this works out perfectly.  To this point, I have finished all multiplayer trophies with the exception of the hunters journey.  I just started week 4 of 12, so I'm about 6 hours away from finishing it.  I actually enjoy the game mode.  I waited to play this title because I didn't want to do multiplayer and was hoping for the rumored PS5 remake wouldn't have it (much like the Uncharted Legacy of Thieves PS5).  I am glad I did it.  I wanted that low plat and 100% completion rates, and I've warmed up to multiplayer trophies as of late.

 

Sly Cooper Thieves in Time 0% --> 5%  Just played for about an hour.  Seems like a standard Sly title.  Progress will be slow, but that is by design.

 

Salt & Sanctuary 0% -->  Love this game.  I've already got the plat for the NA PS4 and Vita versions.  I'm adding the EU stack.  Really feels like adding a region stack is a big step in my trophy hunting addiction.  First one being 100% completion goals, second being getting every trophy in a series, third being adding console stacks, and now regional stacks.  This should be done quickly before moving onto Shadow of the Colossus.

 

Hope everyone is having a great month of gaming.  I sure am.  Enjoy reading your updates and look forward to many more!

Wrapped up the last of the DLC Bronze trophies for Lego Marvel Superheroes 2 on Friday. One Night Stand was an interesting puzzle/decision-based game that had you trying to figure out the best way to socially navigate the morning after a One Night Stand (as the title indicates).  It was an amusing 2-hour platinum (cause I wanted to play around a bit as opposed to just using a guide).  Moving onto Digimon Hackers Memory next and will aim to be mostly done that before spring break is over (starts mid next week).

I finished Senan Kagura Burst Re:Newal, got further in Trine 1 (2/3 of the 1st playthrough is done), played a bit of Super Neptunia RPG (mostly orienting to what to do next after one year of not playing the game) and played Wife Quest which I bought on a whim and liked it so much, that I will add it to my list.

 

Senran Kagura Burst Re:Newal:

This is the remake of the first Senran Kagura game. The story is the same (from what I remember) but they changed the gameplay to that of the more recent ones and made it a musou/warriors alike (the original was a sidescrolling brawler). The story was good with 80% lewd jokes and cute girls doing cute things and the 20% of death and despair. It is split into 2 stories (one for the good and one for the evil shinobi school) with a bunch of free missions. I played the story with the suggested character for each mission and then got through the free missions with Hikage which I liked the most gameplaywise and I really liked her character and backstory. The trophy list is on the easier side, just play through the missions and collect the secret scrolls (collectibles) and the platinum is as good as yours. Now on to wait for the next main entry in the series, 7even (which was anounced in 2017 but then Sony´s "mood swings" happened).

Update 3:

 

1. Horizon Forbidden West - 74% -> 100%

2. Elden Ring - 10% -> 11%

3. Scarlet Nexus - 0%

4. What Remains of Edith Finch - 0%

5. Haven - 0%

 

Finished HFW! Really enjoyed the game; the open-world was just so fun and gorgeous to explore! I'm excited to see what the next game will entail.

 

Elden Ring has been SLOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW because of flipping invaders that don't leave me and @KazaneHime alone for F I V E F U D G I N G M I N U T E S. Like please, Code Vein was superior when it came to co-op in that you couldn't invade. I already have a hard enough time anyway, I don't need more of a headache. I still think they should have an opt-in/opt-out option for invading.

[Fanatixa1]

Hi everyone, 

 

Only a small update from me this week. Still making progress on Cook, Serve, Delicious 3!. I'm down to the last trophies, but also the most difficult ones. I'm still making progress, but it takes a bit longer than expected. Getting all gold medals in this game, means making no mistakes. I'll keep at it  I got the platinum in A Short Hike. A cute game, that only took a few hours to platinum. I enjoyed it overall. Outside of the challenge I was able to get 20 race wins in Fall Guys. Only one trophy left for the platinum, so shouldn't be long. I'm just waiting for a legendary skin to drop. 

 

In the coming week I'll continue playing Cook, Serve, Delicious 3 and I will continue playing Horizon Forbidden West. I'm excited to continue Horizon after not playing it last week. Have a good week everyone! 

 

1. Cook, Serve, Delicious 3! - 70% --> 88%

2. Horizon Forbidden West - 30%

3. Life is Strange Remastered - 0%

4. Life is Strange: Before the Storm - 0%

5. The Escapist; The Walking Dead - 37%

6. A Short Hike - 0% --> 100% 

 

Swaps: 0/2

Update 5 - 

 

I was lucky enough to have a 4 day weekend which let me make a serious dent in my list and bagged two platinums! Now to mess around with Dark Souls until the weekend when I get my hands on Ghostwire Tokyo.

 

Divinity: Original Sin

I got completely engrossed in Divinity:Original Sin which I absolutely loved, just a fantastic story with some really deep tactical combat. I thought the writing felt very Monty Python in parts and I really loved some of the banter and conversation between the companion characters. There were some janky bits and I didn't like how the last part of the game stopped you from progressing if you didn't have enough blood/star stones to progress. Turns out I missed a couple but had no idea i'd need a certain amount until that very point. Other than that though, this was an excellent RPG with a true tabletop D&D vibe. 

 

Beyond: Two Souls

Probably one of my all time favourite interactive story experiences. This game wasn't everyone's cup of tea, but something about the story really spoke to me and the music really pulls on my emotions. I had played this game way back on my original PS3 account and I really wanted to give it another shot on my actual profile again. It's been a few years, but I think the game still has it in the heartstrings department. There were some genuinely teary moments in this game. If you like narrative adventures and science fiction/paranormal stories, this might be right up your alley. The music is composed by Lorne Balfe and produced by Hans Zimmer and has one of the finest themes in videogames. I particularly love a piece called Dawkin's Suite who was one of my favourite characters in the game:

Spoiler

 

 

1.  Divinity: Original Sin  
2.  GTA V  
3.  Beyond: Two Souls
4. Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga - 0%
5. Ghostwire: Tokyo - 0%

 

[gruffiiti]

Short update from me. Not too much progress but I wanted to add a couple more games to my list.

 

 

Elden Ring

I'll be playing this for the next month or two so figured I might as well add it to my list properly. I have logged 25-30 hours in it so far and am on track to easily double or even triple the guides estimated hours. Trophies have also been few and far between so far in my early game. No biggie though as it has been great and I am really enjoying my time with it.

 

Limbo

Had this game on my Fall/Winter list but didn't get around to it. I wanted to move it over to the Spring event to hopefully nudge me to get to it sooner. I also see @rjkclarke has been been playing it recently so that is extra motivation to finally attempt it.

 

 

Event Games

1. A Short Hike [PS4] - 100%
2. Edna and Harvey: The Breakout - 100%
3. Carto - 100%
4. Rise of the Tomb Raider [PS4] - 2%
5. Afterparty [PS4] - 1%
6. South Park: The Fractured But Whole [PS4] - 1%
7. Elden Ring [PS5] - 0% --> 8%
8. Jurassic World Evolution [PS4]
9. Lost in Random [PS5]
10. Limbo [PS4]

It's a shame you didn't enjoy it as much. I loved it. While the MP can be daunting, I much prefer this MP where I can just get it done on my own than having to do gaming sessions and rely on other players. It just sucks and a big mess to make it happen.

[ConAir]

Update #3:

 

A minor update.

 

I thought I would have finished Astro Aqua Kitty but I will probably need another 1 - 1.5 hour to play through the last level and get the last 3 Trophies and the Platinum. I think I don't have missed any Trophies so far, except for 1 in the first level. I allready went back in a second savegame to get it.

 

Also played some Blazblue and added a few of the easier Trophies. 

 

Plus, I bought the Red Faction Armageddon DLC and added a few quick games from the backlog. Started/boosted a few new games. If I finish enough, I will enter those or swap something out.

 

Astro Aqua Kitty (Vita/PS4) 54 -> 79%

Need for Speed Shift (PS3) 31%

Blazblue Cross Tag Battle (PS4) 47% -> 54%

Rocketbirds Hardboiled Chicken (Vita) 18%

Rayman Origins (Vita) 4%

Smash Cars 14%

Red Faction Armageddon 10%

Gynoug 0%

Gleylancer 0%

Takotan 0%

I thought the single player campaign was great. The only drawback about MP was needing 4 ppl for the ranked wins.  I went ahead and started the game thinking I'd solo grind my way to level 60. Didn't think it would take 18-20 hours of it, but with a boosting buddy, I got it down to about 6 hours, which was very achievable and didn't feel excessive. Now I have to find out when I want to start on Rise of the Tomb raider as I have a tendency of playing the first game of a franchise and then bouncing around a bit. (Uncharted, Tomb raider, dark souls, infamous, and about to stark arkham asylum lol)

 

Oh BTW, I think you mentioned earlier the need someone for operation tango, I may take you up on that offer despite it not being on my list.

Update 3 - 3/21/2022

 

Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin 0% 67%

 

 

Still no plats, but I made good progress on SOPFFO after adding it last week. Probably could have finished it if I didn't spend most of the weekend watching basketball, but I made sure to get the bugged Chaos difficulty trophy while it's still easy. Everything else shouldn't take too long so I'm hoping to have the plat done by Wednesday. And then I'll knock out two more quick plats with Salt and Sanctuary and Shadow Warrior 3 before finally getting back to Elden Ring. If I can plat all 4 before the next update I'll be in good shape! Now let's see if I can actually do it. 

 

Take care!

I thought the single player campaign was great. The only drawback about MP was needing 4 ppl for the ranked wins.  I went ahead and started the game thinking I'd solo grind my way to level 60. Didn't think it would take 18-20 hours of it, but with a boosting buddy, I got it down to about 6 hours, which was very achievable and didn't feel excessive. Now I have to find out when I want to start on Rise of the Tomb raider as I have a tendency of playing the first game of a franchise and then bouncing around a bit. (Uncharted, Tomb raider, dark souls, infamous, and about to stark arkham asylum lol)

 

Oh BTW, I think you mentioned earlier the need someone for operation tango, I may take you up on that offer despite it not being on my list. 

 

You shouldn't wait. If you liked Tomb Raider, you're gonna love Rise of the Tomb Raider. By far, the best out of the trilogy. Doesn't have MP trophies either. Unless you wanna go for the 100% ? then, you'll need to do the Co-op for it. It's quite buggy as well so bit frustrating ?

 

Mah boi!!! Cheers for my Operation: Tango homie ? Not sure if you're aware but I have a trip coming up and I'll be gone for a couple of weeks. If you're down, maybe like mid-April? Let me know.

Plants Vs Zombies: Garden Warfare 

Fun Game! I boosted the 100 kills trophies with the same people I did the Garden Ops Crazy difficulty with. As I said in a previous post, I'm surprised people are still playing it these days. You'll run into the occasional cheater (someone with unlimited health or autoaim) and a lot of the modes are completely dead, but Garden Ops, Team Vanquish, Gardens and Graveyards and occasionally Gnome Bomb still have players. Suburbination is a good mode to boost kills in because nobody plays that mode anymore (did they even when the game was popular? ). The last trophy I needed was the perfect win in Gardens and Graveyards and I found a really good team that actually stayed on the garden most of the time and we were able to get it. I like all of the characters in this game, but I'd say my favorites would be the Toxic Pea and the Toxic Scientist. They're also the best to try to get assists with for the assist master trophy. I doubt I'll do Plants Vs Zombies Garden Warfare 2 or Battle for Neighborville but I enjoyed returning to one of my favorite shooters on PS4 (and earning the platinum in the meantime)! 

 

UP NEXT: InFamous: Festival of Blood or Pocket Academy!
