The financials associated to those sales on the other hand? Yes. Readily available. And I struggle to believe that information would be somewhat easily publicly available yet somehow the information regarding the 'units' sold would be unknown to you? Like, where do you think those numbers come from? Surely you'd be informed of both at the same time? Or you could at least approximate based on the 2nd number. I mean, you want me to post a screenshot for you? I just really struggle to understand how you wouldn't know. If you don't want to answer a question like that just say you prefer not to answer, that's honestly perfectly fine. Don't pretend you just don't know the answers, it only puts your honesty in question. Honesty is saying I do not know. Or in fact I do know exactly how much we have received on sales, which is currently 0. Of you have found a site stating that our income is different, then you may need to question that site rather than us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soft disagree. Future generations need to see these games so as to learn of the bloody battles fought in the great Trophy Hunter Wars. Can you really say we should forget about armies who marched across this battle-scarred land? Great victories and atrocities, such as: -Percy54389128yv, The Spammer, who mercilessly carpet bombed quick platinums across towns and villages, a land now known as Omega Butthurt Prime? Would you forget the assmad caused by this cruel monster? -Father Spaz, Holy Priest of I Play Arcade Games In The 80s, who preached tirelessly from lowest thread derailment to highest block list about crap that had fuckall to do with the actual topic? Would you forget his cries about the PS3 days being better except for the 80s which were super better? -Bloodmoney, He That Embodies 'Shots Fired', whos spicy hot takes were spot on and pretty fucking hilarious? Would you seriously dismiss his words, so beautifully crafted that they ticked off both sides of the argument (somehow)? -The...other people I don't remember cause this whole thing was completely stupid? No, friend, we will remember. These games will forever sit on the PSN servers, battered markers of a war long fought and a dumb fight well fought and is also still dumb. On 11/27/2022 at 8:41 AM, MonaSaxPayne said: this is a big fat lie I can give many examples of games that changed trophy requirements/descriptions It's not a lie, this is a part of the publishing policy. It's just they never seem to enforce it, or at least I don't think I've ever seen a case of it being enforced. If it was fully enforced, every MMO on the network would be fucked. Which is the long way of saying they could change it and likely not run into any issues. Edited December 7, 2022 by Jelly Soup 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taruta13 Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 I found out about this post from PlatinumBro's video. As you know, I try to avoid playing games that are just "hold a button for 10 minutes to get the platinum" as a policy after my last account was flooded with games similar to the Stroke games(by the Pig P developers). I'm not proud of that account as it was just flooded with visual novels and stuff that I just AFK'd on. I think the Stroke games would be better suited to 3-years old like my niece as it doesn't require you to push a lot of buttons to pet a dog, those games would be something that my 2-year old niece could do as it only requires one button press. For older people, these games are sort of insulting your intelligence. I'm not going to cruificy you for something that I wouldn't play but I'd play with my niece watching because it would be entertaining to them. (Please realize that 3-year old children do not have the complex brain chemistry we adults have. I tried to play Bubble Bobble with my niece and she just stood there watching me play, holding the controller and letting her character get eaten by blobs. ) I'm also not an expert on content as my favorite games are RPGs that last for weeks before I can get the platinum so I cannot help you there. However, I can suggest a progression of difficulty as a platinum trophy is the hallmark of testing your skills. That's why people don't really like Jumping games or My Name is Mayo as there is really no testing of one's skills. Just start with an easy game, then have it unlock a new game which is a bit harder(after stroking a dog, you can play fetch with it) and so on up to a point. You don't have to end up with a Dark Souls style difficulty, but something interesting, fun and challenging at the end and if you complete THAT then you have earned the platinum. This is just a suggestion, so take it as you will. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firstly I will get the rather large elephant out of the room. We have made shovelware, this is not something that we deny and it is not something that we are going to dispute, it is however something that we have learnt from. The "Stroke The" games were low effort "games" created by us, reasons behind their creation vary but ultimately that makes no difference, they were made in a way that they should not have been. For that we are sorry for clogging up certain sections and the PSN store as a whole (obviously we were not alone in that one). We do not however believe in removing history, we do believe in improvement and that is what we are going to be focusing on. We won't be removing the Stroke The games from the market, we will however be adding to them to ensure that there is additional content within the games, making them more than just a press X game. This fan be seen with the addition of the Quiz sections, with more to come adding additional gameplay elements. In order to ensure that there is more value. Going forward we will not be releasing any further easy platinums, having said that, we have 5 additional stroke games already approved and one additional easy game that will release, but we will ensure that they also have additional content fleshing out the games added to them. We have a number of games in the work which will release next year, these will be full titles which actually require effort and includes gameplay in order to complete. Once again, we apologies for the games we have put out so far and will continue to work on them to get them to a more acceptable level. We are open to your suggestions and comments but will not be responding to simply negative comments, negativity with construction is ok as that is how we learn. Thanks for your time and hopefully we will be able to prove that we are a little more than just a shovelware creator. Hey Game Achievements Ltd and all viewers of this forum. I have addressed this "apology" in a video. I discuss the apology and a few of the best replies made by some people in this forum. Ultimately, the fact you are still releasing future games makes this apology utterly pointless. It does not appear like you have learnt anything, it appears that you have been stopped by Sony. Nothing more. Platinum Bro 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildZubatAppears Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 I honestly think the PSNP community also needs to put its own house back in order. The leaderboard was never tweaked in all these years. It's still there sitting prominently on the homepage. World rank and country rank are still some of the most prominent stats on everyone's profile. PSNP enabled all of it and is 100% to blame. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We see this solution preferred by the speedrunning community and works well. d) Remove all links to the leaderboard from the homepage and user profile and not replace it by anything at all.

I dont see them apoligizing here. also it might be hard to believe for some people here but some people actualy enjoy those garbage games. not saying its the majority but I know a few who do. realy shows how much hypocrites are here and people who think their oppinion is the right one period. wel newsflash thats NOT how it works 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I also think the plain old, not-really-controversial trophy points leaderboard is just fine as-is.

Sony dropped the ball on trophy rules/standards pretty much as soon as they announced trophies. There's no putting the toothpaste back in the tube.

NMErickson Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 a, b, c, d.) That excellent shovelware filter applied to the leaderboards. Could you imagine ? If 100% was donated to charity I might spend some dollars. Still wouldn’t play one but better chance of giving up my hard earned money on it if say Stroke the Dog donated it’s proceeds to the Humane Society or animal shelters.

I agree that they should stay. like it or not it is part of history and it could be an reminder to never make those mistakes again. lets say you remove them now players who wanna hunt then now can NEVER catch up. you cnat remove them from people who bought them either since they paid for them and spent time with those games even though it mightnot be a lot. so yeah in a sense those games have value they show an huge mistake that should never be repeated you cant change the past just the future and removing all traces of it doesnt means it never happened. so yeha in a sense those games have value still edit: I forgot to adres 1 of your points which I do here now. do I think the apoligies would have come if sony didnt change policies? honestly I dont think they would however I dont have all the information to make that conclussion so I am casting the benefit of doubt there. also even if that is the reason it deserves at least some respect for doing it still because others who did the same thing possible way worse didnt do it at all. and I am pretty sure he knew he would get a lot of hate for making the post I can at least respect that somewhat Edited December 20, 2022 by visvoer18 adding info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was arguing at the time and making a case to keep making them and showed little to no remorse in his actions of exploiting the trophy system, nor did he seem to take any criticism on board. So when I say value I mean, he was trying to claim there was pretty much nothing wrong in what he was doing. I don't support the removal of any game that's been approved. I may be of the stance that they shouldn't come with a platinum or perhaps do not count on a leaderboard, but that is neither here or there. I just don't believe he's genuine, and that this is now a case of going back to the drawing board and thinking "okay I can't get away with this any more, how can I perform damage limitation." Regardless, I hope he does stick by his words, if not for any personal redemption he may want, but purely to keep that shit off the network.

To your first point: the “competition” here, for this leaderboard, is and always has been: Whoever has the most time and money and doesn’t break leaderboard rules is at the top.

Ethically, Sly and his site is in the clear because it’s been remarkably consistent from the beginning by not passing any arbitrary judgment in excluding people from participating. It’s been the opposite of inaction by denying those that would deny others from participating in the sites leaderboard by shouting the loudest that they don’t belong. PSNP gained its influence through its design and welcoming standards of a non-arbitrary trophy points leaderboard. It’s what continues to bring people here and it’s what should stay, and possibly welcome additional arbitrary leaderboards as well. PSNP doesn’t enable Sony. Sony enables Sony and judging by Sony only seeming to crack down on asset flips, but not multitudes of identical regional trophy stacks, Sony has sent the message that they’re mostly fine with the state of trophies and PSNP should continue with the same approach it always has. There are plenty of other trophy sites with leaderboards and the audience that seeks them out will show the support numbers for other arbitrary trophy leaderboards and if there is more support for those, they’ll eclipse PSNP as the most influential.

I feel like you are totally reluctant to the idea that PSNP might have any sort of influence on the community and therfore should also accept full responsibility for the shovelware issue on Playstation. Sony is a large slow moving global corporation. It only reacts to external stimuli. This includes profit and community feedback. PSNP would have significantly impacted both by stopping the promotion of the current leaderboard. So yes - I stand by the fact that PSNP enabled and significantly accelerated all the issues including shovelware and region stacks. I totally disagree with the statement that people flocked to PSNP for it's "welcoming standards of a non-arbitrary trophy points leaderboard. It’s what continues to bring people here". That's just an extremely conservative point of view assuming that that everyone else is just as reluctant to change. It's just not true. That's not what i hear on YouTube. That's not what I read on discord. That's not even what I read here on this same forum. The things I really hear about the PSNP trophy leaderboard are a mix of either indifference or active disdain. People genuinely don't like it and are warning new comers to stay away from it as far as possible. That's the current reality of PSNP's leaderboard. The majority would like it to disappear forever. A minority keeps it alive. The community is unable to autoregulate. It enabled several issues with the trophy system and it reached a point where Sony the massive slow moving corporation actually had to jump in and address it because the community responsible for it just wouldn't. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
