Popular Post da-Noob123 Posted March 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 1, 2023 @da-Noob123Original Starting PCG: 93.73% February Earned Trophies: 61Goal PCG: 98.73% February Earned Platinums: 1February Starting PCG: 93.96% February Games Started: 1Current PCG: 94.18% February Games Completed: 1Month Increase: 0.22%Total Increase: 0.45% February Summary I didn’t get much progress in any of my yearly goals as this month was dominated by one game but before we get to that, I’ll cover the few other games I played briefly this month as well. Fallout: New Vegas – 58% > 77% At the start of the month, I played this and Sacred 2. For F:NV, I completed the first 2 DLC’s. Unfortunately, given the size of my save file, this wasn’t the best of experiences. I had to restart every couple of hours and lost a bit of time to freezes. Despite these flaws, they were very good DLC’s. They took place in completely new areas and had a lot of great new characters, but I had to limit my interactions with them – again because of size of my save file. At some point I’ll look up a YouTube video to get the full picture so to speak – it’s just so disappointing that the game runs so poorly on the PS3… Sacred 2: Fallen Angel – 31% > 38% I played this a little to remember how to play it as I set up a session early in the month so I could get the few MP trophies out of the way. Along the way I got 2 of the miscellaneous level up trophies. I hope to finish this game off later this year but it’s a long one so we will see. The Elder Scrolls Online (Hidden) Last week there was an event for Battlegrounds, this mode was introduced in the Morrowind chapter and is tied to a trophy, that in the past, has been unattainable. The event made it so that all battles were the Capture the Relic battle and for the trophy, you need to capture 3 relics in one match. Luckily, I managed this in just 2 matches but just barely. I had less than 2 minutes when I captured my 3rd flag and gave a holler of joy. I know there are few of you out there with this game sitting at 1%, so some info on this one. I did this in the sub-level 50 queue, I am currently at 24, and have been following a build for an Orc Stamina Dragon Knight. I didn’t have any special gear just equipment I have found and that was at or near my level. Just look up a guide for the initial quest needed then in the menu use social activity (IIRC) to join a Battlegrounds queue. To optimize your time, wait for one of these events, they happen every few months it seems, otherwise you’ll be playing other battle-types before eventually getting a Capture the Relic round. Hogwarts Legacy 0% > 100% Here it is, the game that dominated my February. The bugs I encountered were minimal and the only one of any concern was the collectibles tracker not working but thankfully, that was patched and fixed long before I got close to the platinum. I loved the first 10-15 hours of this game, exploring Hogwarts and getting to see so many things referenced in the books. The One-Eyed Witch Statue, myriad tapestries, the giant squid, I was totally geeking out! However, the longer you play the game the less time you spend in Hogwarts and you are just exploring the open world. The lands around Hogwarts were great but like most open worlds it suffers from some of the same pitfalls. There are near 100 Merlin Trials and numerous bandit camps which all need to be done for the Platinum, it’s not as bad as the last 3 Assassin’s Creed but I listened to a lot of podcasts/ Youtube videos just running through these objectives. Thank God you don’t need to get every treasure from the treasure ruins! I found the combat to be pretty satisfying and pre-upgrading your armor it was challenging. After reaching level 32 or so it got really easy, this was on normal difficulty. The side quests for the most part were enjoyable and meaningful, especially Sebastien’s questline. The main quest was good but, in a sequel if they make one, I would like to see more done with Ancient Magic. The southern portion of the map is barely used and frankly shouldn’t have been included IMO. The little down there could have been moved to the northern part where you’ll spend 80% of your time already. I really enjoyed the teachers but they had relatively small presence and the assignments they give out are kind of just busy work to extend time between some missions. There was good variety of spells but I ended up spamming my strongest ones between basic attacks by the end of the game. The 3 partial playthroughs were really unneeded, yes each house has a unique quest before the Map Chamber quest but it was hardly that big a deal. The 4 common rooms were amazing though, chef’s kiss. It was a truly magical experience at the beginning but the collectibles – excluding the pages that give a little blurb about something – took the shine off the game a little by the end of it. That said, I am really glad to have experienced it. Next Month Now that I have finished of Hogwarts Legacy, I plan to finish off Fallout: New Vegas then maybe do another of the Ratchet and Clank games then maybe finish my first campaign run in Sacred 2: Fallen Angel. Time will tell I guess. Special shoutout to @Squirlruler who had to manually track our data this month due to some shenanigans. All my data looks good. Have a good week everyone! 2023 Goals 1) Less than 500 unearned trophies (at 560) 2) Less than 20 incomplete games (at 21) 3) Keep Overall Completion Percentage above 92% at 94.18% 4) Complete Fallout: New Vegas, Final Fantasy XIII, Prey, and Sacred 2 5) Finish all games in the following series: Infamous, Jak & Dakter, Ratchet & Clank and Sly Cooper. 6) My white whale this year will be Uncharted 4 Coop for 100% - Completed! 7) My pipe dream is Platinum/ 100% The Elder Scrolls Online – game is currently hidden given the time needed to do it, I have put it on the back burner. 8) Reacquire some PS3 games to finally finish them off: Metal Gear Solid HD Collection/ Legacy Collection, Rayman Origins, not sure about any others currently. 9) Reach 10,000 total trophies – 9,056/ 10,000 10) Finish the last 3 letters I need for the A-Z platinum list.

Popular Post Llobster12 Posted March 2, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 2, 2023 (edited) Update 7 Overall Completion Percentage: 86.23% --> 83.43% (-2.80%) Change From Last Update: 88.28% --> 83.43% (-4.85%) Goal: 91.23% ---- (-7.80% to reach goal) Plats Earned: 103 --> 112 --> 113 (+1 from last update, +10 overall) Games Completed: 128 --> 138 --> 139 (+1 from last update, +11 overall) Trophies Earned: 4568 --> 4763 --> 4813 (+50 from last update, +245 overall) Games Started: 150 --> 157 --> 167 (+10 from last update, +17 overall) Oooophh. This may be a record for biggest one week completion drop. I knew it was going to happen though. With PSVR2 releasing I wanted to try a bunch of games. I went a little crazy and started TEN new games. Luckily most VR games aren't super long and with luck it won't take me more than a couple of months to get a majority of those new games completed. On top of all of the new VR games I started I also dipped my toe into my next big project. One of my goals this year was to finally get around to Skyrim and I started that as well. All in all I had a fun week and I am loving the new VR. The fidelity is light years better than the original PSVR and I get motion sickness MUCH less easily than before. I don't have a ton to say about each new game as I only played for 1-2 hours max in each one as I was just sampling as opposed to really digging into any one thing. Anyways, on to the games! Games I've been playing: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (PS5) 0% --> 1% I have just started what I believe will be quite the long journey. I've only played maybe 30 minutes so I don't have a whole lot to say yet, but I decided to be a lizard dude. Couldn't pass up being a character with so many horns. Ape Escape (PS5) 0% --> 8% Continuing along with one of my other goals this year (to complete all of the PSOne classics) I started Ape Escape. I am playing this a little each night with my kids as they think the wacky story/scenarios are pretty funny. I glanced at a guide and it looks like I can just play through the game without worrying about anything and clean up with level select later. Awesome Asteroids (PSVR2) 0% --> 100% Platinum #113 attained! Well here we have it, my first PSVR2 plat! This we pretty short and sweet. It is basically the old arcade classic asteroids, but in 3D and in VR. It is really simple, but was really fun for what it is. It was only like $6 if I remember right. The plat was pretty easy, just beat the 6 levels and kill "x" number of different things. It was pretty cool zipping around an asteroid field in VR. What the Bat? (PSVR2) 0% --> 29% Pretty silly game where you have bats for hands and just complete a bunch of mini-levels. The 100% will be pretty simple I think. Cosmonious High (PSVR2) 0% --> 1% The newest game from the makers of Job and Vacation Simulator. I've messed around just a little bit in this one and it looks to be an nice evolution of their normal formula. Dyschronia: Chronos Alternate (PSVR2) 0% --> 1% So far this one appears to be a first person anime style mystery/visual novel in VR. Seem promising so far. Kayak VR: Mirage (PSVR2) 0% --> 2% I thought that this game being a slow paced calm experience would be the least likely game to make me motion sick. Instead, sitting in the kayak, bobbing up and and down slightly in the water, it took me all of 60 seconds to need to get out of the VR and wait for my stomach to get right. Hopefully I can acclimate to it since what I did see in the just the few minutes I spent in it was pretty dang cool. The plat for this one appears that it will be rather challenging though. Moss: Book II (PSVR2) 0% --> 2% Only 20 minutes but so far it is just more Moss, which is a good thing. I'll have more to say later. Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy's Edge (PSVR2) 0% --> 3% Also only 30 minutes into this one but there are has already been some seriously cool moments. The blaster shootouts are really fun but mostly it's just been the vistas that have made me just stop and enjoy the atmosphere. Looking out the viewport as we revert from hyperspace to real-space was super cool. And when you enter the Cantina for the first time... it's just so immersive. Smoke hangs in the air in a way that is only possible in VR and the alien models are so detailed. I spent a long time just hanging out there looking around and gawking. Very very impressive. Jurassic World Aftermath Collection (PSVR2) 0% --> 40% The visuals on this so far aren't going to blow you away (it's cell shaded style isn't bad, just not going to "wow" you) but I've a ton of fun sneaking around trying to avoid getting eaten by a raptor. Some of my favorite VR moments have come here when a raptor surprises me around a corner or I make a close escape. Horizon Call of the Mountain (PSVR2) 0% --> 6% Hands down the best visuals in a VR game I've every seen. and it's by a long long shot. Trailer on youtube just don't do it anywhere near justice. The opening scene with you going down the river in the jungle with huge robots dinos all around you was seriously jaw dropping. I haven't gotten too far as I wanted to wait till I could devote some real quality time before I dug in, but I'm very anxious so see what else awaits me here. What's Next? I will likely make small progress over the next week in Skyrim and Ape Escape. But mainly I will be playing VR. I will probably pick 2-3 of the games I started this week and concentrate on those. I will likely finish What the Bat? since I think it is only a 1-2 hour completion. I am also leaning towards finishing the story of Jurassic World since I think I'm pretty far along on that one. We will see what the weekend brings. Anyhow, sorry for the wall of text, I likely won't ever have that many games in a weekly report again! Have a good week everyone and happy gaming!

Popular Post Spinacheq Posted March 2, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 2, 2023 Monthly Update Time: Thanks for the monthly number @Squirlruler it is always appreciated:@SpinacheqOriginal Starting PCG: 85.23% February Earned Trophies: 44Goal PCG: 91% February Earned Platinums: 2February Starting PCG: 85.6% February Games Started: 2Current PCG: 85.49% February Games Completed: 2Month Increase: -0.11%Total Increase: 0.26% So my last month was not as great as I would have hoped it would be for gaming. I did finally beat Cold Steel 4 and I hate to see that story arc end. went and played a quick FMV game doing my usual play through it 1 to 2 times to experience the story on my own, then use a guide to see the few choices I didn't do for trophies. Then if it wasn't enough that released not 1 but 2 DLC to mess up my completion rate, I went and started No Man's Sky on PS5. Thanks to all who offered conformation of not copying over my ps4 saves. I get to play it from scratch and get all the trophies again . Currently on my survival permadeath run to the center of the galaxy after doing the expedition that just came out. And no I am not using the free ship the expedition gives that would have made the beginning a 100 times easier hehe. Hopefully I will have a lot more time for gaming, since yesterday my contract at work ended and I decided I was done working at a place that after 10 years didn't want to hire me full time. They were fine with me working 50+ hours a week, but why give a guy benefits? I am going to take a few weeks rest relax and game a bit then go and get a better job. Thankfully since all the other Database engineers left last year, and I was only one left in the whole international company over the last 4 months I earned enough to cover the rest of this of year if I don't want to work before even thinking of touching my savings. hehe hopefully i can finally get to some of my backlog. Happy Gaming all!! 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Karlat984 Posted March 2, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 2, 2023 Update number 4: Original Starting PCG: 75.28%Goal: 85% Last Week PCG: 75.73% Current Week PCG: 75.27% Well... I've made some good and bad progress since my last update. I'll start with the bad ? So, I started Friday the 13th with friends (actually I unhid it from my trophy list) A few days later I started three PSVR games and my completion tanked below 75% The good is that I FINALLY platinumed RDR2!!!! What an amazing game, it was definitely a journey. So, so much to do but I enjoyed it all (except the bugs and glitches I ran into) Now I feel like I am finally free to actually start making some good progress in this challenge. I'm gonna try and aim for 1% a month going forward to I can complete this. I'm hoping by my next update, I will have platinumed GoW Ragnarök and have completed Spider-Man DLC. Happy hunting everyone ? 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post gladiatorrrrrrr Posted March 2, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 2, 2023 Difficult weeks in terms of gaming time. Not so much progress... I am the Hero - PSVita - 0% => 91% This game was still sitting in my ' to play' backlog list. Since I didn't had much time I thought that this one would be good to pick up and play for a 10/20 minutes. I had a difficult time passing by a certain chapter but other than that it was a nice oldskool beat-them-up game experience. Will finish it this week (still need 3 collectibles) Gravity Rush + DLC (0/3) - PSVita - 39% => 39% Almost finished the story-line again. I thought let's pop a trophy for gravity kicking 10 opponents in a row. But no matter how I tried no trophy unlocking . After a lot of tries I checked the list again to check that I understood the description correctly. Only to find out that I already popped this trophy 7 years ago...... ?. Did anybody had once a similar experience or am I the only one that tries to unlock the same trophy twice...... No progress: Strange Brigade + DLC (3/4) - PS4 - 99% => 99% Current Status Plans for next weeks: - Finish I am the Hero - PSVita - continue on Strange Brigade - PS4 - continue on Gravity Rush - PSVIta Happy trophy hunting everybody! 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment there is only one game at my account, but my goal for this year is to complete at least 25 games. This event is for people trying to raise their completion percentage by at least 5% over the year. If you already have a 100% completion percentage then congratulations! but this will be the wrong event for you. I can suggest the Backlog by the Month event or Spring Backlog challenge where you aim to complete a set amount of games, or the Kaleidoscope or Bingo challenges are very fun and get you trying out new games to fit the squares. Good luck with your gaming goals As for me, at least my percentage has started going up, and I’m not planning on starting any new games this month. However, I’m hoping to finally finish Hitman 1 and 2, their combined trophy lists are what sent my percent plummeting at the start of the year, I’m also hoping to beat the gauntlet in Titanfall 2, and beat some smaller games for other events. I’m doing RDR2 online this month with friends so that should help a bit as well. My main goal for this month is to get back above my starting percentage.

Taruta13 Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 Great job @zalcarezio! Once you get the 10x Stud Multiplier, getting those billions of studs for that trophy is not hard at all. I just popped Attract Studs and x10 and ran in and out of the smithy to respawn the purple studs near the entrance(one is on a bridge overhead, one is in a hut blocked by misty blocks which usually require the One Ring to break, Attract Studs will pull them both to you ) and just rake in the cash!

That was a fun journey, nice to see just ho far Kratos has come, form the absolute psychopath he was, to the somewhat more mellowed out version of the Norse saga. Thought I'd mop up the remaining Wolfenstein games next, starting with Cyberpilot. I havn't played anyhting in VR for a while, so this set off a rather unpleasant bout of motion sickness initially, could only paly for maybe 10-15 mins at a time for teh first couple of days. On the 3rd day of this, either due to just haivng gotten used to it, or having messed aobut witht eh settigns helped massively, managed to get the platinum done. Fairly short and enjoyable (once I got past the motion sickness) little experience, most trophies easy enough to do, although destruction derby was a bit of a nuisance (launch an exploding car in a zitadelle robot), and took a good hour or so of trying to get. Youngblood is probably next on the list. Edited March 4, 2023 by Shadowlord87 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post MrHealthy Posted March 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2023 First March updated: Blur (89% - 100%) The last few trophies I needed to clean this up did end up taking me longer then expected. But still not too bad. A juicy new ultra rare plat at 1.51% for my collection and the second rarest plat I now have just above Laser League. Fallout 76 (2% - 16%) Put a few more hours into this. I am really digging the setting being only 25 years after the war in a very mountainous region. It's got great verticality and interesting places to explore. Being a online game after many content patches its does have the massive info / quest / item dumps that are problematic. It is hard to tell what I should be doing at times as a new player. Dead Nation [Vita] (10% - 46%) Since I am going to be doing the co-op trophies with @Squirlruler I decided to boot this up and re-familiarize myself with this. It never really clicked with me the last couple times I played it but this time its seemed to click. Just rushed through the game on brain dead difficulty to collect all the loot and armour as well as learn the levels and knocked out a few misc trophies. No new progress on Super Time Force Ultra. But also no new games started since my last update so thats good. New games started: 16 New games finished: 13 Backlogged games played: 8 Backlogged games finished: 4 Total games played: 24 Total games finished: 17 Games Finished: Hide contents New games finished: The Last Tinker: City of Colors Axiom Verge 2 Team Sonic Racing Grim Fandango Remastered Agatha Christie: The ABC Murders The Messenger Dragon Sinker Party Hard Ultra Mission Doki Doki Universe Danger Zone The Pedestrian Blur Backlogged games finished: Golf With Your Friends SoulCalibur VI Duke Nukem 3D: Megaton Edition Hitman 2 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post theSpirae Posted March 5, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 5, 2023 Here's my second update this year. February Starting 72.03% End of January 71.82% (-0.21%) End of February 72.62% (+0.80% / +0.59% this year) January wasn't the best month when it comes to Completion percentage, mainly because I started a few new games and didn't plan to finish them. Here's what I said in January Plan for February - will keep playing Smite but don't expect to get any trophies, maybe one or two. I'm debating whether to start Metro Exodus but there's still no date when exactly it's leaving Extra and I'm not a big fan to be pressured to play games with a deadline. I did get a trophy or two in Smite. Didn't start Metro Exodus, I don't like to have a deadline to finish a game. Already have enough of that at work. So what did I play in February? Got some trophies in Desperado III and at least got rank A, I plan to get back to it and get a few more. The same with Sniper Elite 3 - I started this one in 2019, got back to it in 2021, and now in 2023. I'm still pissed the Ultimate Edition didn't include all DLCs and the missing DLC never goes on sale. I hate this publisher and their Season Pass/DLC policy. Well, at least it got rank A and might do a few more trophies. Got back also to Sniper Elite 4 - luckily here I have all DLCs and plan to replay the Campaign this or next month. Already rank A but only at 29%, I'd like to get at least 50%. Finally Warhammer 40,000 Inquisitor Martyr DLC Prophecy went on sale for $4 so was able to get 100% after almost 3 years. Got 100% in Omno - Sweet, short game, perfect to play a mission before going to work. Started Back 4 Blood - rank A, 66%. Not sure whether I want to keep playing. I have only the base game from Plus Extra so 100% isn't possible and the game didn't suck me in as Left 4 Dead or Killing Floor did. Overall, great gaming month, and didn't expect to enjoy playing Sniper Elite games again so much. The plan for March is to replay Sniper Elite 4 Campaign. Already started Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China - will see if I enjoy the game enough to go for 100%. I should start working on the last two missing trophies in Ghost of Tsushima before the game is removed from PS Plus Extra. And maybe another trophy or two in Smite. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post stuthesheep Posted March 5, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 5, 2023 This Week God of War (2018) 31% -> 100% Managed to finish God of War off this past week, although most of the heavy lifting was done last week. All that was needed was a colllectible run and a couple of visits to non-main story related realms. Due to not following a guide for the story it took a fair bit longer to mop everything up than it probably could have, but I had mostly had fun doing it which is the most important thing. Having said that, I was hoping to get through the post-game a bit faster than I did to get onto something else but ended up getting severely bogged down in the Niflheim labyrinth - it took me a lot longer than it should have to realise I could actually exchange materials for mist clouds to unlock stuff rather than grinding it all out myself. Never mind, it's done now. That only left the Valkyries, but by the time I got to that stage I was so overpowered the eight regular ones didn't pose much trouble at all. The Queen was a fair bit tougher, but managed to take her down after a few goes just as soon as I got the hang of her movements (although admittedly my taking of the coward's way out and turning the difficulty down to Easy for that fight probably had a bit more to do with that) Glad to have finally played it, unsure what took me so long to give it a shot now. This upcoming week I'll also be taking on Assassin's Creed Chronicles - planning to finally get a PS5 when I'm on holiday from work in a couple of weeks (I live on my own and don't particularly trust my neighbours with my deliveries!) and I seem to remember there were issues with the backwards compatibility for it at launch time. A quick Google tells me that those issues have been fixed now, but I figure better safe than sorry. It's another game where I've had an untouched disc copy gathering dust for at least a couple of years now, so now's as good a time as any. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gumby114 Posted March 5, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 5, 2023 Update number 2 for me. Hogwarts Legacy This game has taken up all of my time and it's the one game I have been exclusively playing since release. Its already been said by a million people, but boy is this game good. I have really focussed on getting all the collectables when I can and have slowly started clearing sections of the map. Story is great. I like the little "relationship" quests. Will try and get to Elden Ring and GoW as well this month. I am almost finished Elden Ring going by the platinum walkthrough videos. Maybe 3ish hours to go. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gott gebe dir Kraft, you're pretty much gonna need strength if you intend to do the entire Wolf series as there are a few Mein Leibens lurking around the corner ready to rip your brains out. 2 minutes ago, Gumby114 said: Hogwarts Legacy This game has taken up all of my time and it's the one game I have been exclusively playing since release.

Certainly getting a lot of this praise, pretty glad my initial plan to platinum Kingdom Hearts while visiting Disneyworld fell flat due to the CEO change-up as now I booked a ticket to Universal Orlando and will be spending the park time in their Harry Potter parks, I have a friend who is also enjoying it. Can't wait to get my house sorted. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ORIGINAL_BEERON Posted March 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 6, 2023 Update 7. Started @ 66.07% now @ 74.19% - Goal 75% January > 3.41% increase - Platinum's = 3 February > 3.40% increase - Platinum's = 5 Week 8 > 1.48% increase - Platinum's = 1 Games played this week: Apex Legends: 49% > 63% > 100% Played a few games got a couple wins and unlocked my final 4 trophies for the 100% Thief: 28% > 67% Finally got back to the game after years in the backlog (2016). This game would be great if they added fast travel it would make all the loading screens more understandable. The open world city is split up in multiple sections with your homebase being in the north. So if you have a mission in the southern most part you have to travel there by foot and go through 4 loading screens.... such a bad design. The rest of the game is great. I played through master difficulty with the custom modifiers and completed it in about 8 hours. I also managed to complete the challenge mode on my second try! woohoo! With the most difficult trophies out of the way all the remains are miscellaneous and collectibles which will be done on my easy difficulty save. I'm hoping ill be done with it this week for the ultra rare platinum. Star wars racer Revenge: 19% > 80% Pulled this one out of the back log (7 years ago). I have two trophies remaining, to unlock them i need to get the best 3 lap race time and the best lap time on every track. I have one race left to get the best lap time on which seems impossible to get. I still need to shave off 3 seconds.. Once that's done, it's smooth sailing for the 100%. This has also added a few ultra rares to my collection. Alienzix: 0 > 100% An easy platinum to get that dopamine hit and reward myself for this weeks grind. I've also unlocked a few trophies on fall guys and Cod WWII but nothing worth a paragraph for. This week brings my total completion to 74.19% only a few off my goal of 75%. I might do another week or two of backlogged games and then start throwing in some new games i have in the library. I can't wait! Congrats to everyone on the progress. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post da-Noob123 Posted March 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 6, 2023 Weekly Update As discussed in my previous post I finished Hogwarts Legacy so I won't rehash that again. Fallout: New Vegas 77% > 100% After HL, I finally got back to this game and finished it off completely. The 3rd DLC, Old World Blues was probably my favorite one. It had a really great cast of characters and some cool melee weapons which is what I had been focused on using for my playthrough, so that was cool. The 4th DLC, Lonesome Road, was unexpectedly serious. Making your character take responsibility for their actions. I didn't get the full story though, this will be another one I watch a video on. It was good but I didn't much care for the gameplay though it was still better than Dead Money. Then to top it all off, I followed an excellent guide on Gamefaq that showed me how to speedrun Hardcore in ~2.5 hours for my Platinum. Ratchet and Clank: All 4 One 0% > 80% Had Saturday largely free so I binged this. I beat the game and had 9 trophies left. Today I only had a couple hours but got it down to 4 trophies left. The main one left is accumulating 1 million Bolts on a single character, once I do that, I can upgrade my guns for the last 2 trophies needed for the Platinum. Thank God as this is by far the worst R&C game I have ever played. The story was weak but the writing was still good but the gameplay... I don't know where to begin. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
