Ryumoau Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 why dont people think of it as the DLC before the main game?? $30 dlc that acts as a demo for a real game doesn't sound that great to me. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xzero4812 Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 $30 dlc that acts as a demo for a real game doesn't sound that great to me.This price only applies to the current gen systems which is not completely unreasonable, but when sucker punch or Ubisoft did it for infamous,far cry, and assassins creed there wasn't any objections Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewartBros Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Come on people, stop whining over the fact that GZ doesn't have a platinum trophy. Plats are not the be all and end all of gaming - just enjoy the damn game regardless of which trophies it does or does not have. You've known for months that GZ isn't a full-blown game in its own right - are you really surprised that there's no plat?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lporiginalg Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 $30 dlc that acts as a demo for a real game doesn't sound that great to me. Which is why I don't even feel tempted to pick this up anytime soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Stinking Hobo Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Which is why I don't even feel tempted to pick this up anytime soon. I think it will do well because of the mgs fans but probably 2-6 months later it will be $10-$15, well one can hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parker Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 If I had any idea how to photoshop images, I'd put a platinum in here... Parker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KitsuneChaos Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Given how this is technically a prologue title, I'm not all that surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goekie Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 and for ps3 and 360 the game is $20 Still way cheaper than EU store So the game doesn't have a platinum trophy. I really couldn't care less! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skateak Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Complaining about no platinum? Are kidding me? What happened to playing games for fun It's a trophy hunting forum. If a game that is $30 doesn't have a platinum, then we are going to discuss it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CuteBoringLove Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 I just like getting 100%, doesn't matter if it has a platinum or not. I also don't understand why gameplay time would matter. I've played games without platinum that take way longer to complete than a game with a platinum. A lot of disc games just have filler trophies anyway where the first hour or of gaming is filled with trophy popups. and back before PS3 and trophies, I was the one trying to get 100% in every game I owned. I didn't need something tagged to an account for me to show off, it's for my own satisfaction lol. I don't expect anyone to give a shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

damon8r351 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 I don't understand why it's 30 bucks and on a disk when it's obviously a short prologue good for about 6-8 hours of gameplay. I look at it as similar to Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. That's why I understand the trophy list, which shouldn't matter anyways. I think the way they're releasing it is confusing people about the scope of the game. Personally I think they should drop the price a bit and make it a download title on PSN, that'd be a bit more appropriate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PolarPhantom Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 I just find it bizarre that the Strider reboot (A very good game, by the way) gets a Platinum but GZ does not. And GZ is more expensive. Of course, this may tie into how much "content" these games have. I mean, Strider's an average sized Metroidvania release, and can take up to 8-9 hours to complete. If you go after all the collectibles of course. I don't know if GZ will offer a similar playtime for completionists. I believe Sony have made a mistake in this decision, but we are in a transitional state in Trophy hunting, so missteps are to be expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why Dyad and Strider both came out with a price point of $15 and both had platinum trophies. Either Sony is doing very unfair things with their policies, or, and frankly this is a lot more likely, Kojima is so unwilling to admit that his $30 game is too damn small to warrant a platinum - to the point where he is straight up lying to your faces about it.

This right here! Also the fact that it's a stealth and you have many way to get into a base, he could have been creative with the trophies and added a platinum. I think it's pretty obvious that Kojima is getting bored with the series and you can start to see his lack of interest showing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xzero4812 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 well to counter that statement ratchet and clank: into the nexus was not sold as a full title game but still received a platnium trophy set,and in addition it would seem that MGS V: ground zeroes will be getting future DLC http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2014/03/17/report-mgs-v-dlc-releasing-early-2015.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is well known that the game is short, no one has ever denied that. The game is meant to be a taste of what is to come with The Phantom Pain, it was never meant to be a "full game." I suppose it could be compared to Gran Turismo 5: Prologue, not a "full" game but a great experience in its own right. I am curious as to all the naysayers experience in the gaming industry. I really think that someone like Kojima, who has been around the industry and releasing his games on Sony consoles for a long time, would know Sony's policies a little better than someone on a gaming forum. It is also possible that something got lost in translation and there is a bit missing from his statement. As for those other games having a platinum, they are also "full" games and aren't mean to be a prologue of sorts for a bigger game. Parker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
