It saves automatically as you make changes, so not sure what you are doing wrong. If you hit the share button in the top left and change general access from viewer to editor and give us the link someone could take a look and trouble shoot what is happening.

How difficult are those Easter Egg trophies compared to the main game? Cause I remember Tower of Babble being hell on Earth.

Depends who you do them with, some of them have more RNG dependency, but the banks help on a couple maps with storing points for the easter egg runs so you can do them on low rounds. Origins and Mob are relatively easy, and can both be done solo. Origins does have a lot of steps though, so it could be easy to have to start over if you make some mistakes.

Hey everyone! It's been awhile since I last posted but I can't say I've made too much progress. I've been very busy seeing as I have started a new job as well as moved houses, but I'm settled in now and can start knocking out a few games. I did manage to finish off the GTA 5 Rockstar Editor DLC prior to the "shutdown" which turns out it didn't require me to rush through as they updated the trophy requirements. I also got back into Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 and was able to platinum it as well as finish off two lots of DLC. 

 

*EDIT* Well I just managed to knock out the final trophy I needed for the FFXIV: Heavensward DLC for a solid 7692.3 boost to my overall total. I'm going to focus on FFXIV for a little while, mainly just completing the platinum. It won't contribute at all to the Blood, Sweat, and Tears points, but it is a platinum I've wanted for quite awhile now. Once I'm done with that I'll be taking a break until the next expansion and focusing a bit more on my PS3 backlog. I think I have a few games that will add some solid points to my total.

I'm not making a ton of progress this year, having been busy with other stuff. But I've managed to wipe off a super old game from my profile: 

 

I saw the PS3 versions of the Monkey Island games were available to stream on PS Premium, so I finished off the first one a solid 13 years after I first played it. Not a tremendous amount of points, but it's nice to finally clear it off.

I completed several smaller games:

• Bluey
• The Walking Dead PS3
• The Walking Dead PS3 - 400 Days DLC
• PJ Masks - Heroes of the Night
• Life is Strange PS3

Mainly just to get them off my profile lol Now I'll get back to real games, first being God of War: Ragnarok. It'll be nice too cause I'm doing the PS4 version then I'll autopop the PS5 version, both of which are in my backlog so double the points for 1 game

After 5 years I finally obtained Kingdom Hearts 3 Platinum trophy! I played the game when it released and loved it, but I gave up at the time with only a handful of minigame related trophies left. Verum Rex was intimidating as I suck at shooter games and the last straw was when I was failing to break my eggs and had no ingredient left for the cooking trophy lol

 

Almost there for the Blood, Sweat and Tears badge with 4815 points currently! And it also gives me one more Finishing Touch badge.

The rose are red violets are blue and I went from 1st to 7th place. Good job guys!

Got another game done, Final Fantasy IX. I noticed there's a new spreadsheet. Did anything change other than it being more fancy? Such as calculations or something? @Rebourne07Will have to migrate to that someday.

It's just fancier. Figured I'd put the spruced up version out there as the template for any new players joining.

Another small update from me. I just finished up Cult of the Lamb's "sins of the flesh" DLC. This was the least painful part of the games trophies so far. The base game and first DLC had trophies that were bugged for a long time, so I didn't want to start straight away on the DLC this time. I'm happy to report zero issues this time around! It only got me about 23 points but was fun enough. 

 

I've not had much to update lately as I've been working on Bleach for PS3. This game is so grindy it's ridiculous. Yet, I've come too enjoy playing for an hour or two each evening while listening to YT videos. I hope to have it done in another couple of weeks. It will basically triple my points so well worth it!

A single title update but one I am very happy to have finished - Darkest Dungeon which I started in Nov 2017.

I had done every thing except finishing the game on Stygian difficulty in under 99 week and have one hero alive at the end of a boss fight.

For anyone who knows the game my last surviving Highwayman finished off the final boss while he was on zero health and having survived 3 Deaths Door checks.

 

I love this game - despite the RNG and stress inducing game play.

 

Also my first 1,000+ point entry so will net me a couple of badges as well:

One Shot - Reached 1000 points with a single game or DLC pack

Finishing Touch - Platinum or 100% the base game of a true backlog game (1 year+) you already had 50%+ done.

Very nice! That game is extremely difficult. Those points are well earned!

Oh man, having that 90% profile multiplier will be huge. Definitely start doing the big point games right after that!

March was a big month for me: I earned almost 12 whole points! That's what Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will do for you. The good news is that Toren had been at 9%, which earns me my first 'Repentance' badge.

Bro, for real that's one reason I haven't started VII Rebirth yet...it'll put literally everything else on hold for a month+ lol Congrats on the badge though

I just gotta say I really enjoy seeing how everyone has customized the template to match their own aesthetic preferences. And then seeing what elements people are taking from each other.

Completed my next game, Dragon Quest Heroes. This game is full of bugs and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Glad that's over. Good riddance.

 

Another update about Final Fantasy IX: I messed up the start date in my last screenshot. It's fixed now. With the now correct start date, it is worth 980 points instead of the 1078 points it was before.

Nice, a few less points is actually good since now it'll count towards your BST Score

Update Time

 

Got the platinum in Oddworld Soulstorm. This also earned me my first "Repentance" badge, as the game was only at 4% to begin the year.  From what I gather, this game was super buggy when it launched a few years back. Playing it now was pleasant experience though. 

 

Like many others, I've also been waist deep in FF7 Rebirth. I'm nearing the end though and don't plan to start any other new games for a while.  Hopefully this means I'll start climbing the leaderboards a little faster.

 

Best of luck everyone!

True that I have to pay more attention to the badges.

 

I have a question. What can I do about this DLC? https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/12817-genshin-impact/viech54#DLC-7

By my own experience, it takes around 40 - 50 hours to complete and has a difficulty of around 3 or 4, but I can't find a guide for it.

Sorry, but that is for the PS4 version and series VII is different on PS4 vs. PS5. The corresponding list on PS4 would be series XII

Been a while since I've posted but been working on some mammoth games. Finally done Assassin's Creed Valhalla which I actually enjoyed quite a lot. It was a little on the bulky side and I didn't really like the Asgard storyline nor the worlds, same with Norway and Finland, mainly because it was a lot of climbing or sailing which made getting to certain places effort. 

Also been working on 3on3 Freestyle which I'm nearly done with, just 140ish wins left, some assists and 100ish MVPS but done all the hard trophies. Probably going to work on the DLC now for Valhalla but my percent has gone up nicely this year.
