Quick change before the start, replacing Muramasa with Metro Last Light

 

- Doom - 47%

- Metro: Last Light (PS3) - 4%

- Sniper Ghost Warrior: Contracts - 11%
- The Last of Us part 2 - 5%

- Silent Hill: Downpour - 0%

 

Is that Homepour? I saw someone speedrun that game at Summer Games Done Quick 2023 and it was very interesting.

How is that game? I have that on my old account, started it and never finished as I felt it was too Harvest Moon for me.

I'll sign up again since it encouraged me to go back to some of the titles I have yet to finish. I signed up a bit late and was on holiday for several weeks, so hopefully this one is going to go a lot better. I have faith I'll wrap up God of War on the PSVita before the other one ends, so I'll go with these on this one:

1. Final Fantasy XVI (PS5) - 0% (22nd June)
2. Cat Quest (PS4) - 0%
3. Horizon Forbidden West (PS5) - 21%
4. The Last of Us Part II (PS4) - 11%
5. Anthem (PS4) - 40%

Might add some more or swap something depending on how the summer is going, but this looks like a solid initial list. Thanks for hosting!

5. Resident Evil 5 28%

22. Torment: Tides of Numenera 0%
23. Rayman Origins (Vita) 0%
24. Concrete Genie 0%
25. Humanity 0%

I know for sure there is almost no chance of me getting through all that, but the summer is where I have the most time and I’m going to have an absolute blast trying to fill that list. Green are the holdovers from the previous challenge. Where two versions of the same game exist I’ll be playing the PS5 version. All of these are games I already own, nothing bought new will be added.

 

My aim is to have started everything and have a better completion than I have currently (70.4% at time of writing).

 

So looking forward to this. Good luck everyone.

@MidnightDragon, no rush, think you added me to the list twice

[Taruta13]

Just wanted to make sure I got my list authorized as I'll be hitting the ground with a dash that would make Sonic the Hedgehog jealous as soon as midnight ticks over and I wake up tomorrow. I admit I did change a thing or two but I think the five games I have listed are fine and the only difficult one is Zodiac Age but then FFXII is a very complex game. I'll be doing tons of research on it (aka picking over Zer0star's Platinum Speedrun video) as I complete the other games.

 

Good luck, everyone, and make this freaky summer not drain your energy. Summer is a very hot season(especially where I live in San Antonio, and I have several doctor's appointments in June as follow ups and a possible colonscopy, ugh, I hate being middle-aged ) so my schedule might get shifted and try to delay my completions, but I'll push on!

If I don’t say anything about the list except added, you’re good.

Is that Homepour? I saw someone speedrun that game at Summer Games Done Quick 2023 and it was very interesting.

There’s no Silent Hill Homepour  

There is a SH title called Homecoming, which might have been it. 
Obviously I’m not going to speedrun this one (Downpour) I believe it needs 3 playthroughs for the platinum.

Homecoming sadly does not have any trophies.

[StilRh]

Hey guys.

Revised my list to include new games, whims, fancies and to account for the range of games I've been playing lately. Good luck with your trophy hunting

Atelier Sophie 2: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Dream 28%

Company of Heroes 3%

Crosscode 12%

Your not allowed a game over 50% for the challenge Infamous..... probably best to swap it or just show it as our of challenge progress

Not sure how I missed that. Thanks for pointing it out.

[iinzane]

I would love to get involved in my first challenge. I will start off with 5 games and see how I go 

1. Destroy all Humans! (2020) 46%

2. Destroy all Humans! 2 Reprobed (2022) 0%

3. Assassin's Creed Valhalla 0%

4. Stray 0%

5. Ghostrunner 0%

• Final Fantasy IV (0% => 10%)
• Final Fantasy V (0%)
• Final Fantasy VI (0%)
• World of Final Fantasy (12%)
• Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age (7%)

 

Time to get started, and in the words of the immortal Skybilz, GOOD LUCK AND HAVE FUN!!!

 

I am going to focus on each game one at a time until it's done so I don't lose my mind. The Pixel Remasters should not take too long, maybe be finished in July. FFXII is the slowest, though, but I will do my best. Also deleted my save for WoFF so I can start over, it shouldn't take too long to get back to where I left off(completed the Goblin Highlands).

 

FFIV isn't too tough. Spent a long time in the Baron area and farmed the Goblins and birds to get two of the secret summons, actually got the Cockatrice summon from a Helldiver in the first area! I stopped Day 1 just before the Fabul Gauntlet, everyone is around Level 27. Tried farming the bombs in Mt. Hobbs but found out they do not drop the Bomb summon. Why? It would make so much sense!

I'm swapping Minecraft Dungeons with Infamous: First Light (1%). I accidentally put total completion (including DLC)  instead of base game completion % for Minecraft Dungeons  and my base game completion is over 50% ?

[Slifer1945]

i going to join the fall backlog challenge but now not because my holiday is going to start on june 26 i wil give it a try in the fall backlog challenge now i take a break and finishing of marvel spiderman dlc and the very hard difficulty mode that wil give me some time think wich games i wil do for my list 

[rjkclarke]

I'm gonna throw one of my various hats in the ring for this one again....

 

And just like usual I'll probably throw together a list I won't finish, but I can always carry those over to the next challenge if need be, right?

 

As most of the games I have actually started are over the percentage threshold for this event, looks like I'll just be adding unstarted games.... because..... well I'm too scared to return to Star Ocean: The Last Hope okay

 

So here goes... I'll add

 

1. A Way Out (PS4) 0%
2. Blacksad: Under the Skin (PS4) 0%
3. Ape Escape 2 (PS4) 0%
4. Blood Knights (PS3) 0%
5. Greedfall (PS4) 0%
6. We Were Here Too (PS4) 0%
7. Inside (PS4) 0%
8. X-Men Destiny (PS3) 0%
9. The Last Guardian (PS4) 0%
10. Syphon Filter (PS4) 0%
11. Dead Island: Riptide (PS4) 0%
12. Dreamfall Chapters (PS4) 0%
13. Firewatch (PS4) 0%
14. Pyre (PS4) 0%
15. Dead Synchronicity (PS4) 0%

 

So I thought I'd take a leaf out of my partners book with this one and just add a list of games I know I'm likely to want to play in the next few months, or ones that her and I are definitely going to be playing together.

 

Greedfall is going into this challenge again, and it keeps appearing ever since I first participated in one of these all the way back in 2023, so I really ought to get to it soon.... But I guess I'll see, I've still got plenty of backlog busting to do outside of this event too, with the games above 50% on my strange little personal quest towards 98% completion  

 

As usual I'm looking forward to following along with all of your progress!

First day and first one down. I figured I'd quickly finish off LiS: Before the Storm. I actually enjoyed it much more than the original LiS. I feel like it was better written and felt more real.
