Backlog Challenge 2024 - Sign Up Year-Round!

[Sephiroth-22-]

3 more completions down. 

 

Completed both DLC's for Darkest Dungeon. Crimson Court DLC was alright, but some of the mechanics they added were tedious. Had a blast with the Color of Madness DLC, especially trying to get the 300 kills in 1 run. Felt like it was the right combination of tough but fair. Still need to do playthrough of the game on hard mode for the platinum. Not sure if I wanna dive back in right away for wait a bit.

 

Not much to say about the Nightwing DLC. Most of the challenges were pretty smooth aside from a couple of the campaigns. I have 2 more DLC's left in Arkham City. Plan on getting those knocked out this year.

 

Best of luck everyone!

It's been a while since my last update, but I've been able to collect a few points in the meantime. My completion rate has also increased by another 1.5%

I've got the platinum and Crimson Court DLC completed for Darkest Dungeon – I never did Colour of Madness though. I'm tempted to dive back into it, but it's been about 7 years since I last played it. How difficult did you find it?

I don't think you'll have much trouble with it, since you already cleared the game on hard mode. The only rely challenging trophy is getting 300 kills in 1 run. There is a little RNG involved. After the first 2 boss fights, all other bosses are random (there is a pool of roughly 10 bosses). The curios in between fights are also random. I used the party recommended in the Color of Madness trophy guide. Vestal and Jester feel pretty mandatory, but the damage dealers would come down to your own preference. Having characters with the Riposte ability felt really useful. Good luck if you decide to go for it!

After logging in everyday for a few months, I finally completed Rayman Legends. I was able to get more consistent at gold cups near the end and got it sooner than I thought. I was not expecting to get it before July or August when I started.

I had this game in my backlog for a long time so it gives me 640 points and two more badges: Closure and Finishing Touch. I have reached the limit of 10 badges for finishing touch.

 

Only game left from my backlog that I plan to play is Hollow Knight but it might take a while as I already finished it on the Switch and I have quite a lot of games released in the past months that I had been meaning to play but was putting off to prioritise the challenges. Time for a small break! Quite proud of how far I went and happy to see everyone having a blast!

Managed to clear a lot of the DLC I had for Dead Cells: 

 

 

I have one more DLC to go, Rise of the Giant 3. But I won't have time to play for a while, so I thought I'd post my progress so far. 

 

This is the first "Got 'Er Done" badge I've earned too.

Another completion to report.. This time it's Kung Fu Rabbit (PS3) that has fallen.

 

Not too much to celebrate in terms of points, but it's another game off the backlog! 🏆

Servers are shutting down for Battlefield 3, Battlefield 4 and Battlefield: Hardline later this year. Should be a good opportunity to earn the  Wild Card badge for anyone with those games in their backlogs.

Btw Astros playroom got new trophies bound to riddling, and they will make ever 30 days another trophy obtainable until release of the new game

I think the one of the most depressing things about this challenge is that I could conceivably end the year with a bigger backlog than I started with, purely because I'm unable to outpace the release of new DLCs for games I'd already 100%!
