LancashireLad87 Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 (edited) As far as I'm aware Trials Fusion shouldn't be included in the top 10 badge because it lacks a platinum trophy therefore it seems counter-productive to include a 100% game. Granted you probably didn't know what to put as the last top 10 submission. It's very difficult to think of games that deserve a top 10 spot since you could make the case for a few dozen games, however as far as I can see there are some big numbers being thrown around for the MGS Collection on PS4/5. Perhaps you can replace it with MGS2 until further details are released regarding it's difficulty. I honestly cannot think of any additional badges at the time of writing but I feel like the Hardcore badge for completing the challenge playing at least 7/10's is easily exploitable since there are a lot of websites that have inflated ratings. Not sure of a name for this potential badge but what about having a badge where you must complete a 1% platinum all the way up to a 10%. Regardless I'm looking forward to participating in next years event. Edited October 27, 2023 by LancashireLad87 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snap I didn’t realize Trials Fusion didn’t have a platinum. 100% games will be allowed next year, but I definitely want the top 10 to have platinums. Replacing it with Metal Gear Solid 2 is brilliant though. Definitely gonna do that. Out of my 275+ platinums I consider Metal Gear Solid 2 PS3 my hardest platinum…and now everyone says the PS4/PS5 version is even harder due to the Big Boss rank trophy 😳😬 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been thinking about this a lot lately. I'm excited to present the tentative badge list. Hardcore badges have been added. Text in bold red indicates changes to existing badges. I dropped the Easy Mode idea...too many potential complications. Let me know what you think or if you have any questions! I think I'm going to pass on next year's event to try and do some other events (namely URs on A-Z Platinum Titles and Every Genre), but I did try to get almost every badge this year so I might as well provide some feedback. I think having both DCO and OCD is kind of restricting. I'd be in favor of condensing it to one badge for doing it in either direction. I agree that PS3 should only be 3 games. The PS3 has a lot of good games for sure, but a lot of them also have online trophies so it can be tough to find 6 that aren't annoying to complete. I definitely ran into an issue with VR master since it simply wasn't achievable without spending a bunch of money. I like the idea of condensing it with Vita master and allowing anything with a peripheral as well. There are plenty of PS4 games with Vita tags so it should be achievable for anyone. I would also be in favor of lowering the PS4 and PS5 master badges to 5 games. This way they are technically achievable in one list. There are also not very many high difficulty PS5 games, so it's already annoying enough building a PS5 focused list that completes other badges. This goes along with Money Bags, which I agree 3 works for. I think Simmer is a little too specific. There aren't that many popular games with Simulator in the title. I think of games like Planet Coaster or Cities: Skylines, which are definitely simulators but don't have it in the title. The Simulator tag is certainly more widely applied than I expected, so maybe a compromise would be to have 3 games with the tag with 1 of those requiring Simulator in the title. Some other ideas for badges: 3 games where you play as an animal/non-human 3 games that are on PS+ extra or premium 3 games from the same developer or publisher, but not from the same series 3 or 4 games with UR platinums (as an "easy" version of the hardcore badge) 3 games completed by anyone in last year's challenge 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re still on track to win most unique badges You bring up some really good points. Thank you for the feedback. I’ll combine OCD and DCO and ask the players to specify which order they did it and award them either the right side up badge or upside down badge accordingly. That way the player can choose the order but the leaderboards still show which direction they did it. You bring up a really good point with the PS4 being usable for Vita or VR tags. I do want those systems/peripherals to be required for those badges so I’ll specify that it must be a Vita exclusive version or a VR Required game. Any other peripherals we can include besides Move controllers? Maybe the PlayStation Eye toy? 😅 For Simmer I think you’ve given me an idea for a good middle ground. The Simulator genre tag is definitely too broad and yeah the Simulator title requirement can be restrictive. I’ll put a note that any player can get any game they feel works with the badge approved beforehand. Like just ask me if Planet Coaster or Cities: Skylines works and I’ll say yes. Those are clearly simulators where the games I mentioned with the Simulator genre like some sports games are not so they’d be rejected. Like what the heck is Gungrave G.O.R.E. “simulating”? 😂 I like the animal badge one. We have one like it in the future badge ideas section. I also like same publisher, I’ll add that one in too. I’ve been aiming for 25 standard and 10 hardcore. Maybe we’ll make it 30 standard and 10 hardcore? 🤔 Edited October 27, 2023 by Rebourne07 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall this was something you were trying to do when creating the badges for this year. If you were looking to find a badge leader, you could assign a point value to each tier too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice, I need to officially add a UR component to the every genre challenge. I thought about doing the points thing…it’d be awesome to see the results of it but not awesome to calculate them for every list. I’d need to write a little GitHub or CodePen website where people could input their badges and it’ll do the math for them to make it feasible and I don’t think I’ll have time for that this year. I’m changing jobs here in a week so I’ll be busy learning a new company’s code and business rules the rest of the year (I’m a Software Engineer) so that’s why I’m trying to take care of this years event prep work so early.

Inuty Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 Since i read that you should include a badge to play ps+ extra games, i thought you could extent the ps+ badge for the month with completing a game from Essential in the month or one new entry of extra or premium in the month. The Essential needs to be finished until new Essential games come out and extra and Premium games needs to be finish until the new games for extra and Premium come out. That makes the varity of the games per month a bit bigger and more able to achieve for more users. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to figure out a way to involve PS Plus in some way...but I'm removing all time restricted badges. So like Carpe Diem couldn't be planned because you didn't know what games were gonna come up until the months rolled on. And the Love Bird, Murica and Spooky badges required you to wait for a particular month to do them so I removed those too. Can you think of a way to make a badge that involves PS Plus but 1) can be planned ahead and 2) doesnt require the player to wait for a particular month? The badge also needs to not be free haha cause if you say platinum any game thats on PS Plus Extra then everyones gonna get the badge. 😅🤔 Edited October 27, 2023 by Rebourne07 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean it will take time until the first games are known but with this you can plan a little after the first 3 months are over with a collection of games. To avoid the platinum at a specific time just say you need to platinum 3 games over the year in a list. I cant think of another solution yet, sorry 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finch_III Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 I thought possibly a Hard badge that was a spiritual opposite to Minesweeper, where you have to get a minimum of, say, 25 separate badges in a single list. Seeing as it’s sorta the opposite to Minesweeper, maybe call it something like Battleships haha. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(If it helps then Arcade Classics which was my 6/10 is actually a 6.5/10 so could cover either although i dont want to mess up the OCD badge either.

Popular Post Inuty Posted October 29, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) I made some good progress with my 5th list: List 5: 1 - Unpacking (PSNP) 2 - The Forgotten City (PSNP) 3 - Dredge (PSNP) 4 - Untitled Goose Game (MetaGame) 5 - Trails of Azure (PSNP) 6 - Sayonara Wildhearts (MetaGame) 7 - Solar Ash (Platprices) 8 - Velocity 2x (Platprices) 9 - Lies of P (playstationtrophies.org) 10 - Deadbolt (PlatPrices) Not much to mention for Untitled Goose game, it was free on ps+ extra and i always wanted to try it out, a very short game. After the recommendation i played Solar Ash and it was a great game. I like The gameplay and that you need some perfection in those Boss Fights to beat them. I finished Velocity 2x today which was theoretical more of the same. A space shooter with some run and gun Action parts. Perfect run in each level which needed practice, practice and more practice. In all it was really enjoyable for what it was. Last completion for this post is Deadbolt. A really buggy aiming control what you need to get used to. Its only 27 levels and the hardest part were the no death run and to complete the game in 1 hour. Again practice make perfect. After i trained the harder levels, i was able to finish this faster as expected! Only 2 more games to finish the list and after that i will Call it a day for this year. I will post the badges After i complete the list to make you less work with bad formating from my side Edited October 29, 2023 by Inuty 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the badge clarification it is said all games which are in project platinum Final fantasy are legit for the badge. Strangers of Paradise is listed there too so i guess you can use it 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And 12 badges in a single list, including a lot of rare ones! I think you've inspired me to try Resident Evil Code Veronica sometime for one of my 10s. Looking over it, it looks difficult but my type of game Also, very ambitious with the two lists for the end of the year! You can either push to finish those this year, or get close to platinum but hold off until next year to pop them to make early progress on next year's event. Up to you! It's nuts how you're doing various regions of games like Vanquish and Demon's Souls. Smart strategy tbh cause I'm sure they get easier with each successive completion. Also, yes, your ratings for Asterix and Terminator are good. I hate when trophy guide writers change their ratings. And the Terminator one is still good actually. I had a discussion on here a while back about which rating counts, the trophy or the game rating on Metaguide and we decided together that any rating there counts. And yes, Stranger of Paradise counts for Brownie Points. Any FF that's part of the Project Platinum: Final Fantasy thread counts and there's 38 of them so lots of ways to earn that badge On 12/1/2022 at 12:55 PM, Rebourne07 said: Inuty - March 14th ~ Skul: The Hero Slayer [[July 2nd (Platinum) ~ Vanquish]] [[July 8th (Platinum) ~ Crash Bandicoot 4]] [[October 1st (Platinum) ~ Devil May Cry 5]] [[October 29th (Silver) ~ Deadbolt]] @Inuty Blows me away that you have so many lists they don't fit on a single line anymore in the leaderboards 🤣 Good job man, no idea how you do it. Looking forward to your 5th list completion and hope to see you back next year. I'm like 99% sure you're gonna win the most badges award so I'll contact you at the beginning of next year after I've totaled everything up to see how you wanna get your prize money. I'm also gonna work on the challenge hall of fame today so I'll tag you there once that's complete.

Man to be honest i have a hard time to find 10/10 and also 1/10 difficulty games at this point i really want to play 😂 if i finish the last list, then i have done 5 years of this event in one. I guess i need to wait for newer games 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I originally made the event it literally never even crossed my mind that anyone would do more than one list in a single year. But then people started going ham and doing multiple lists and doing ultra rare restrictions and other stuff which is what inspired the badges. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
