Mina Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 I think of a platinum trophy as a bonus that I’ll inevitably receive after completing all trophies anyway. It’s like a small cherry on top of a cake, I don’t really care if it’s there or not as it doesn’t ruin the other layers if I’m without it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PraiseTheFluppi Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Getting all trophies in a game with platinum and without is the same for me - it's both about getting 100% ? The platinum trophy doesn't make a difference, it's just a bonus trophy at this point with all the purchasable platinums. I've played a bunch of great games without platinum and it's sad to think people turn a blind eye to some fantastic gems only because one 'special' trophy is missing in comparison to most other games ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lava_Yuki Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 I never played games without a platinum, the lack of a plat puts me off buying it in the first place 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannyswfc9 Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 29 minutes ago, BlueDragonZero said: Absolutely. As others have said there are plenty of great games without a platinum. Although the platinum doe's have a certain allure so I kind of get it if people wouldn't. Now, I haven't played many games that don't have a plat but I'll still go for 100% as at the end of the day the plat is more of a bonus then anything. This also applies to DLC as I care more about the 100% tbh. Although I'm more then happy to wait for DLC to be a price I'm willing to pay then immediately purchase it. I love getting 100 percent in games but either ive lost interest in the game by the time all dlcs have come out/cheap enough or the dlc is too long/hard for it to be worth it. Like @DrBloodmoneysaid i do love a S rank but i try to get all my games these days to at least a A rank 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post WiktorM101 Posted October 2, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 2, 2022 Game has only 3 states: 100%-ed Unfinished Unobtainable I don't know why people care so much about platinums. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylvanticore Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 (edited) I got no problem 100%'ing a game that doesn't have a platinum, but it also depends on if I like the game or not, got 100% on Hitman and Sonic Mania, didn't bother me they didn't have platinums.Completed quite a few that didn't either. Working on Hitman 2 on and off as well. Edited October 2, 2022 by Sylvanticore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoesusHCrust Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Yes, I do care and I wish I didn’t! I’ve spent hours and hours trying to 100% games that I don’t enjoy playing because I want to have a higher completion percentage. Whether a game has a plat or not makes no difference. It all contributes to your completion ratio. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baranov_925 Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Well, I have 5 100%'s without plat. I don't think they are less worth than plats, despite the fact I don't have it that much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueAssassin86x Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 For me personally i don't really care about getting all trophies in games i'm perfectly happy with just finishing the main story. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMZ Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Only if it's part of a series or the game is really that damn good, but honestly i don't see that many good 100% games unless if you guys recommended some for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With or without the shovel shit these days the plat is still worth something for me. I got as giddy with my 200th plat as i did with my 1st.

Teva_Forlan Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Well, I've completed Jet Set Radio 100% and it doesn't got any platinum trophy but one thing is sure that the game is one of my favorites games I played in my childhood and even nowadays it's still enjoyable to play. So in my opinion, what matters the most is how good the game is and after that I focus on trophies no matter if there's platinum trophy or not.

Folkenio Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Trophies don't define what I get to play. Plat or no plat, my ultimate goal is to enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LastMinuteSavior Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Two of my favorite gaming experiences this year involved plat-less games: Inside and Lego Builder's Journey, and it's always rewarding getting all the trophies for a game you enjoyed, regardless of there being a platinum waiting for you at the end or not. I'm now eyeing two other plat-less games: Broforce (trusting reports that it runs well on PS5) and Little Nightmares (got the season pass for the 100%), and I'll probably even enjoy going for those trophies more, since they'll definitely be a lot more challenging to achieve.

LastMinuteSavior Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 In the end it might depend on why you're going after trophies. If you're a complestionist or see trophies as a challenge/additional fun you will enjoy a plat-less 100%. People with other things in mind, such as hoarding plats, probably won't.

dmland12 Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Sure, I've got a fair number of non-plat 100%s. Most of those were from PS+ though, back when there were more games per month and usually at least one or two of them didn't have a plat. I haven't bought many non-plat games.

erni1400 Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 I am not interested anything over platinum. Games without platinum I play only for fun. I am not going to 100% of games when DLC isn't story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floorkiller74 Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 No, but I also don't care about obtaining all trophies in a game that does. I enjoy trophies and I usually try to get what I can, but they don't dictate what or how I play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disaster500 Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 I care more about the plat than 100%, but I'll go for DLC trophies if they seem fun. For example in Horizon Zero Dawn I got all the Frozen Wilds DLC trophies because I was enjoying the game enough to play a whole new area with new quests/weapons/enemies etc. However I did not bother with the 2 NG+ trophies because I can't be bothered to replay the whole entire game for 2 trophies. I'd only replay a game on NG+ for a platinum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must have done around 100 of those. 100% on them all no plats. Yoo, that's sick. How many are you missing? Are you going to do them all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashande Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Like others have said, the Platinum trophy itself is just a rubber stamp that says you did everything else (in the base game, at least.) I try to 100% everything, whether it has a Platinum, doesn’t have one and just has 100%, or has a Platinum but then adds DLC/Title Update trophies. Completion is what’s important to me, not the rank of the star at the end of the road (or middle of the road, in case of DLC.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snakebit10 Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Absolutely. There has been some amazing games I have played that didn't have a platinum. A few of my favorites without a platinum Infamous Festival of Blood Far Cry Blood Dragon Child of Light A Way Out Abzu Inside Valiant Hearts Firewatch Contrast. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
