Sendai-Horatio Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 (edited) I'm torn on Final Fantasy 15, for 100% I need to jump through multiple hoops because of comrades on the other hand the pocket version of the game still counts as a stack for 15 and is much easier to 100% but currently it's on sale for 12 bucks and normally goes for 30 and I have no funds loaded into my wallet right now.

Of course, I intend to fix that situation ASAP, starting with Hogwarts Legacy in four days. Speaking of which, I edited my list to add another bad life choice: Final Fantasy XIV. So yeah, I have two Most Wanteds as I plan on starting up my new Lalafell Warrioress of Light soon as I get back. Idk, you seem to be chugging along in the Kaleidescope challenge waaay faster than me.... I mean, so fast that @DEI2EK, @acasser, and @Psy-Tychist hasn't even joined it yet and I have 2 games done.

I assure you, I probably won't get those last two games done as they are long-a$$ RPGs. Even then, I have been creating another card for the Rainbow Elite challenge and it has a lot more RPGs.

SWWDevereux Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 (edited) I don't have any RPGs on my tag un-completed but I've been buying RPGs for years and shelving them.

Good sir, I'm not trying to 1-up you or anything, but let me put it this way... I have earned 3 trophies in March, and less than 50 trophies this year. Though, I do think making a list of options would be helpful here: Fallout new vegas (may finish before start) Fallout 4 Rainbow Moon (lol) Disgaea 4 Complete Mary Skelter Finale P3P P4G Tales of Arise Trails of Cold Steel 1 FF Type 0 FF IX Ni No Kuni 2 Persona 5 Kingdom hearts (series) Rogue Galaxy Dark Cloud 2 (lol) South Park: Stick of Truth PS4 Nier Replicant Yakuza (series) FF X-2 Persona 5 Strikers Resonance of Fate I'm sure I'm missing others. Current focus will be Fallout NV, but will probably go P3P and P4G after that. And will likely do Mary Skelter Finale after that. Rest of the list probably won't matter because that'll be the only thing I finish. Lol.

Arctic Cress Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 I'll join again. Hopefully this time I won't forget about the topic halfway through. for double and triple point games 2x Legend of Dragoon void tRrLM();++ //Void Terrarium++ 3x Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society It was interesting having my double and triple point games being at the end of series in past versions but I was never going to finish all of those games in the series within the time period, so I'm making it much more manageable this time. For callouts, you can check my trophy checklist topic in my signature which I keep mostly up to date 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Psy-Tychist Posted March 18, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted March 18, 2023 On 15/03/2023 at 4:44 PM, Taruta13 said: So, about the call outs, you basically just post with "I call out [NAME]'s game [RPG]" and that game gets a triple bonus?" I know it's only callout and a game which isn't already getting a bonus, but I just want to verify? When can we do the callouts? Basically yes. You challenge someone to finish a game that is either on their profile or in their library. If they complete the game, they will get a 3x bonus for completing the game and completing the challenge. On 15/03/2023 at 11:01 PM, Laburnski said: This is just my opinion but while i understand this is completely optional, for the sake of level the playing field should we just remove Call-out bonus this year? Or maybe replace it with something else or just make 3x bonus game can be apply to 2 games as well like 2x. Last year and i think a year before it too ( i kinda forgot ) only a few ppl got the callout bonus ( including me ) while the rest didn't get it for various reason i assume. If this isn't going to be fair, it will be something that will get removed in the future of the event. Originally, the OP picked a game for the competitor to finish which was fairer in some ways. We'll see how this year goes and it may be chopped next year if it is as underused again this year. On 16/03/2023 at 0:01 AM, AlterArchuria said: I do have a question regarding the Seasonal stacker @Psy-Tychist since it doesn't have a example but will it change 4 times like the name suggest or will it just be one big list of sorts maybe updated every 4 months? Well, I called it the Seasonal Stacker, mostly for alliteration. I will be picking a theme each month which relates to that month or a holiday or something like that. If a game played in that month qualifies, it will get the stacker bonus. On 16/03/2023 at 1:46 AM, acasser said: The one thing I would object to is if people could use the call-out bonus in combination with other bonuses to get a really massive score. I took advantage of this in the competition several years ago by getting somebody to call out my triple-points game; this at a time when the scoring rules were much more favorable to DLC and the game in question had two packets of DLC trophies. Which enabled me to score something like 1600 points on a single game. That I understand, but generally stacking multipliers is no longer an option. You can gain bonuses in other ways to make a big score, but it is much more challenging than before. @fisty123, @acasser, @Laburnski, @Leon Castle, @kingofbattle8174, @AlterArchuria, @AppleKratue, @Sendai-Horatio, @Arctic Cress, @Sanevin, @Lord_Bane999 welcome back for another year! @zalcarezio, @Edunstar84, @serrated-banner9, @Beyondthegrave07, @DEI2EK, @Taruta13, @reaperveteran86, @Gundam-J25, @viola9fantasy, @Xylobe, @SWWDevereux, @blu3st4rdust305, @Fenrirfeather, @vividamage123, @CokeEnnyday, @ApriIis, @YokA_sun welcome for the first time! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, that's after I come back from Florida(will be leaving on a plane in two days), so I probably will be dead on the forums until the 24th as I won't have any Internet in the hotel, but I will be spending that time on Hogwarts Legacy and other games I have on my Vita and PS5 during those five days.

Edunstar84 Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 My two point games: Octopath Traveler & Tokyo Xanadu ex+ My three point games: Star Ocean: Integrity & Faithlessness I struggled with Tokyo Xanadu a long time ago, so I might as well get double points for it. I think I'll do some "easy" games first just to get the ball rolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taruta13 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 10 hours ago, Psy-Tychist said: I'm curious what is an easy RPG... The original Wild ARMs because of a dupe glitch that lets you dupe any item to 255 by underflow, so you can dupe all your stat-raising apples to 255 and just do this four times to max out all the characters' stats. Ragu Ragula only killed me with his super-attack and even then I had dupped 255 Goat Dolls to take the hit. I'd also say the original Dark Cloud but that one trophy for stealing an item is annoying RNG because you need a special weapon to steal from enemies. But there's another glitch that creates a dummy item you can synth to your weapons to max their stats, allowing you to upgrade them immediately. You'd get the best weapons for everyone when you get them. 4 minutes ago, acasser said: Kemco RPGs FTW!

Dark Cloud's item theft trophy you can usually get by the second dungeon. Xaio gets a slingshot with that steal ability that can drop multiple times. However even with the glitch it takes awhile to get the end game weapons for everyone. You need to upgrade them multiple times and depending on if you buy the Wise Owl Sword or get a random drop in the first dungeon of a Gladius it's still going to be 6 times before you can upgrade to the Chronicle Sword. This also doesn't factor in Status Break which can further upgrade the glitched item's stats which needs to have a level 5 weapon to make a sphere. There's also the fishing trophy to get a Baron Garayan which is far more heavily RNG dependent than anything else in the whole game when it comes to trophies. Just using Toan and Ruby to get through dungeons makes everything quicker because Toan is needed to open everything and is the best melee character and Ruby just destroys everything with her ranged attacks. But the final dungeon will also throw you off if you never bothered upgrading your other characters because they each have a single floor dedicated to themselves during the last few levels before the final boss. It certainly takes some level of planning and searching around to make sure your party has enough water slots and health upgrades so they can survive the final area. It's worthwhile getting all village requests done even though if they don't reward a trophy just because of all the extra items and skills you get for each one.

Yeah, I forgot about fishing the Baron Garayan, that was a chore. As I said before, I almost considered it but changed my mind. Wild ARMS, the original, doesn't have much of that luxury - the instant you get the three characters together, you can start underflowing consumables and basically be invincible. Lucky Cards to double all boss EXP gains, stat apples to get every to 999 in every stat, Goat Dolls to equip to block a one-shot attack. This glitch makes the game almost trivial and you only have to suffer through the prologue stories of these three characters. (Four if you count Hanpan. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
