eburkulosis Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 So I bought this game yesterday and I had the platinum by the time I reached the beginning of chapter 7 Took me about 3 hours 38 minutes. I'm happy, yet disappointed I cant believe I'm saying this but they ruined a beautiful game with an easy trophy list! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway though, would you recommend that I play this game or is it not worth the $14.99 for an easy plat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brenden Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 They didn't ruin their game it was simple marketing brilliance, now their sales will greatly enhance for the easiness of the trophies thus encouraging trophy hunters to buy the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that is a great point, it does seem like games that have easy platinums sell really well or at least rent very well. The thing about Trine 2 is that it's digital, thus meaning the only way to play is in fact buy it, and since people (myself included) want the easy platium, we will eventually buy it.So agree with you Brenden, it is an excellent marketing strategy, but it just shows how ridiculous we trophy whores are!

ShadeSplit Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I'm going to get Trine 2 at some point since I enjoyed the first one. I'm disappointed it's going to be that easy though. The first game was easy, but nothing that you'd call the "easiest ever". For me, I actually think the easiest platinum trophy I earned was Dante's Inferno. Mini Ninjas might have technically been easier, but I played Dante's Inferno on normal, and you can do everything in the game on easy and still get the platinum trophy. Normal was so easy, I can't even imagine exactly how pathetic easy must be. There were one or two things that caused minor trouble in Mini Ninjas, too. Dante's Inferno had nothing like that. Other notable games were Last Rebellion and Marvel Super Hero Squad: The Infinity Gauntlet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly! The game appeals to enthusiasts and trophy hunters alike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eburkulosis Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 I still recommend getting it Daniel, its a well made game. It may have been marketing genius, but the trophies still ruined the experience for me. I have lost the urge to even finish the game at this point. Thats just how I am though. I need to be forced via trophies to finish a game. Im a low down dirty whore at heart. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piggie_Pie Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 That is a disappointment unless the replay value is through the roof... How much is the game? I liked Trine 1 demo but i never got the game... should i get part 1 before i get #2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow Eburk......you and I both....I will eventually get it, but after I get the plat, I do not see myself finishing the game....Is that pathetic or what?

magnus_deacon Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 It does make me wonder if anyone will play the whoe game through. Since you're not required to complete the game to get the platinum I kinda have to wonder that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ille1234 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Hmm, interesting. I didn't play the first Trine game but I was really looking forward to this one since everyone said it was going to be amazing. Am i better of putting my money elsewhere or is it still worth it?

iraqoz Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 WOW really so there is no trophy for finishing the game LAME But stil cant beat Megamind....1 hour and 30 minutes and you get the plat lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Honestly, I would prefer a Trine 1 esque trophy list. I know, it may be harder, but I like the fact that it brings me to complete the game. Sure it may be harder, but the game was polished so it didn't hurt to play through some levels a number of times.

I have several "hard" games on my platinum list, but overall, I see nothing wrong with a super easy trophy list. In fact I like popular games that are easy. Trine 2 has got to be better than Hannah Montana! Anyone who has a Hannah Montana platinum that is not a girl should be ashamed!!!! I'm looking at you Greg Miller from IGN!!!! (In case anyone was wondering, I do not have HM on my trophy list, nor will I!!!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontwaketheKIDS Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Bought Trine 2 today, not necessarily for the easy plat, but because it is a perfect co-op game for my wife and I to play together. I'll definitely be finishing the game even though you don't need to for the plat. In fact, I'm hoping it has some replay value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowGandalf Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 I plan on getting Trine 2, BUT I stress that it has nothing to do with the trophies or how easy they are. I enjoyed Trine 1 and decided i would get Trine 2 as soon as i found it it was being made. The trophies are just a bonus, I think i'll purposely slow down when getting trophies on it though. My current fastest plat is Jak and Daxter 1 at 7h 13m. I feel it's a decent accomplishment to do it that fast. But with such an easy trophy list, getting Trine 2 faster would feel..... fake. does that make sense? So i'll drag it out, take my time and J&D1 will retain the title of my fastest plat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that you wouldn't want it to be your fastest plat But I plan to get the game eventually for the same reason as you, that i enjoyed the first one, i didn't realise the trophies were easy until i saw this, plus i hear the environments and art in this one are just lovely, better than the first and have lots of rainbows, that's always a bonus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TehCro Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Picked it up for cheap, played through the whole game and got the plat. Shame I couldn't find anyone to coop with. Oh well, I could always pick it up again on a steam sale later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
