snakebit10 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 (edited) I just got thinking what could be Platinum Blocker for people. In the poll if choosing other please explain what that other is. My blocker would be time trials/speed runs. I tend to do very stupid things in games when i am being timed. I don't think this kind of thread has been done. Added to many collectibles to poll options. Edited June 3, 2014 by snakebit10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonoid321 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I said all because allot of people just hate every type i hate grinding, to many play through's, speed runs (as you said) and to many collectibles or hard online trophy's I just got thinking what could be Platinum Blocker for people. In the poll if choosing other please explain what that other is. My blocker would be time trials/speed runs. I tend to do very stupid things in games when i am being timed.

CorgiBootyy Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Usually long and grindy multiplayer trophies just because it's really hard for me to be able to sit down with a group since I don't have much gaming time anymore, let alone any times that I KNOW I'll be able to play.

BradleyVendetta Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Too bad my only Platinum "Blocker" isn't listed, which is Luck-Based trophies.. Although my OCD forces me to do those trophies, I loathe them.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Precision-Playyy Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I voted other because, its not that i like grinding trophies, because some of them can really tick me off the same with Mp trophies, but i will grind them out to get them so its not really a blocker, what i dont like is really hard things like the vettel challenge on GT5, difficult trophies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeautifulTorment Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Too many playthroughs. It's why I haven't finished Lone Survivor. It's why I dread starting Suda 51 games when I know I will enjoy them. Why can't the difficulties just stack Why do I have to play the game in pre-defined ways (Lone Survivor, Max Payne 3). Let me be FREEEEEEEE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidnightRadiance Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I voted for other as the only reason i wouldn't go for a plat is if i just don't feel like it or enjoy the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zorry777 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 It is mostly multiplayer and time trials that get me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CountFlame Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Grindy trophies, luck based, timed, and to many collectibles. The only reason I say collectibles is because some just ruin the pace of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willmill97 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I'm one of few, but loads of collectables are platinum blockers for me, (not including LBP, they're cool) I feel a lot more inclined to do other playthrough of a game if all I have to do is play through it, rather than sit around my laptop with youtube videos pausing the game every 20 seconds for the next collectable... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheYuriG Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 (edited) Luck based trophies (payday2) are the most common imo.

Superstarmaste1r Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I say speed trials looking at you Strider, online shutdowns, and hard difficulties are platinum blockers for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willmill97 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I'm surprised to see people hating time trials and speed runs... They're motivators to me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naoto Shirogane Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I can't platinum the game if I dislike playing it so much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
that_sterlin_kid Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Between lengthy multi-player trophies and time trials, I'm just not sure which is worse. Time trials are by far the most rage inducing for me, but multiplayer trophies often seem to take soo~ very long and very often come packaged with a bit of rage.

TranceVance Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Long grindy multiplayer is the big killer for me. I tend to only play games that are of interest to me, so most of the time I don't mind doing multiple playthrough's or going after a lot of collectables because I tend to enjoy around 85% of the games I play. There have been exceptions but I tend to just suck it up and go through with it. I'm really liking that I can hide trophies now though, I've already hidden a few games from my list because I just hated them from the moment I began playing them.

Bi0_haZard93 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 for me it would have to be if its too long but it has to have like a 300+ hour game that i dont enjoy, i dont dislike the others like collectibles and trials (unless your batman....) since they are extras to do in a game.

Ichiban-Hybrid Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I would go hard difficulties since its a challange. Id wouldve pick multiplayer but most trophies requires time and/or boosting.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redgrave Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Hard difficulties - Not always the case, but if it's hard to where it feels cheap then that's where I draw the line. MP trophies - Self-explanatory. Too many collectibles - Again, not always the case, but if there are missable collectibles or a lot of collectibles without some kind of check list I tend to not bother with them.

Sleipnir-Forest Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Online trophies there so annoying I've never boost those it's hard to different time zones and states so i do them on my own and it sucks when you're team complete suck!!!!!!!! also time trials one fuck up mode and yep everything falls apart and then the frustration starts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKX Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Hard Difficulties (with a caveat) - Specifically when the difficult7 trophies don't stack (i.e. you beat it on Hard but don't unlock the trophy for Easy/Normal) or the hardest difficulty isn't unlocked from the beginning. I hate being forced to replay a game. One of the reason I haven't played a lot more Suda 51 games. Time Trials - Depends on how tight the timing is. Generally not fun.
