TimeLordCrow13y Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 (edited) I know the online servers are gone for good and the chances of ever getting a PSNP-approved private server aren’t great-so the Plat is likely forever unobtainable. And the POTC DLC is essentially completely unobtainable to those who don’t already have it (I don’t) as well. I own the GOTY edition of LBP 1 which I think includes the MGS DLC pack, but am now wondering if I should just sell it, and forget about the games in this franchise prior to LBP 3 (which I also own) and the Sackboy game. I’m guessing the chances of remasters for the first two games are slim though, so I just wanted to ask if people thought the game was worth playing even without the online community custom levels that (as I understand it) are part of the charm of this series.

Absolutely still worth playing. Do it on another account if you are worried about not getting all the trophies. All the LBP 1 (and 2) community levels are still able to be played just the same in LBP3 on PS4. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimeLordCrow13y Posted March 23, 2022 Author Share Posted March 23, 2022 Thanks for the info! Didn’t know the community levels were all still available. Honestly I’m fine with playing it on my profile as long as an “A” completion ranking is still attainable (and since the average completion for this game is 25%, I assume it is). I want to get my completion up to 90% eventually, but I doubt unobtainable trophies from the LBP games would tank it that much. I’m sure I have enough games that I haven’t yet completed and a ton that I haven’t even started to make up for the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaneAusten69 Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Definitely worth playing. The first one especially is such a joy. Community levels were cool, but it's also just such a good platformer. The second one is good as well, but the first was just such a breath of fresh air when it came out. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayShuttlesworth Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Definitely worth playing. Lots of fond memories of playing this game since launch. I was fortunate enough to get the plat mere weeks before the servers shut down lol. Why are the POTC trophies unobtainable though? Did the DLC get pulled from the store?

That DLC was delisted years ago, except in very select parts of Asia, which makes it a royal PITA to obtain since you also need a copy of the game from that country to make it work. Along with the servers being turned off and rendering some of its trophies unobtainable, it's not worth the hassle to obtain this DLC if you don't own it already.

RoastedPeanut Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 It will still be worth starting in 2032 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would they even do that? Luckily I did own it back in the day and got a chance to get most of the trophies except one.. I'm ok with never getting the 100% for this game. I'm just glad I even managed to snatch the plat from the jaws of defeat lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
