Shadows of Rose - All Trophies / Challenges in 90 minutes

[Optinooby]

Quick text and video guide here on how to get all trophies and challenges should you want on Shadows of Rose in 90 minutes. This is all done in 90 minutes on Hardcore difficulty and is perhaps a 3 or 4 out of 10 once you get the strategies down. I think some strategies may take a few tries to get the hang out, but they're fairly easy and consistent to pull of once learned. No speedrunner tactics or anything like that are used, everything shown here should work consistently without massive skill or RNG involved.

 

Some challenges include no healing, all files, no damage in certain parts, 90 minute speedrun etc, so quite a lot included into a single playthrough here. The timer btw will reset whenever you die and restart (even from the game over screen) or reload at any point and also when you open inventory or pause....BUT..... the timer still counts during cutscenes unfortunately ;(

 

Just a quick note on HOW TO RESET CHALLENGE PROGRESS but keep the challenge menu unlocked as I do in the video.

• Can only do this on the PS4 version, but can then transfer to PS5 via save upload/download within the game.
• This is not very beneficial other than resetting all your stats, you will lose anything unlocked via points earned from challenges.

1. Have a end-game save ready in your game where you want to do this. You will need a Shadows of Rose end-game save as well to unlock the DLC challenge menu. 
2. Make sure the game makes an autosave end-game in the main game and SoR. You can use manual saves, but the autosave is quicker.
3. With the autosaves ready, now backup your save, via USB or Cloud.
4. Now delete the whole save from the system and boot the game backup.
5. Start the main game and Shadows of Rose so that you get an autosave on each, then close the game.
6. Now go into your save backup and copy across the 2 autosaves ONLY, 1 for the main game and 1 for SoR.
7. Go back into the game and you will see the autosave still says its at the start of the game, but upon loading, you will see that it actually loads you into the autosave you just copied from the save backup!
8. Now at the end-game, complete the story quickly to unlock the challenge menu. This will unlock a few challenges, like for completing the game, but EVERYTHING else will be wiped.
9. With the challenge menu now unlocked, then load the SoR autosave to spawn end-game and quickly complete that as well to unlock that challenge menu.

• That's it!! Now the challenge menu is unlocked, but almost nothing is completed!! You can do this with manual saves, just means you must first get to a typewriter which is why the autosave way is quicker.

Don't get me started on that grind  but you're right, that is a more commonly known meaning so i've retyped it

Great job, I am waiting for either a correct Complete Disc Edition or the Complete digital version to go on sale for around 5$. Would love to play this one since they added a 3rd person camera. I passed on the complete edition since it was just a voucher.

 

You never fail to impress Optinooby.
