#44: The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel II

 

 

It's been a while since i got another platinum. Great game, even if it has some stuff i don't particulary liked but I still love Trails games and i can't seriously wait for Cold Steel 3. I'm really happy that there's two more games with Class VII. The wait it's going to kill me, though haha.

Platinum No. 88 and 4000th milestone!

 

 

Spyro the Dragon

Gnasty’s demise

 

Well, I played only the first one on the PS1 and this remake is really faithful to the original. The graphic is awesome (but sometimes there is a little framerate drop, especially during a flight) and also the soundtrack is good (but, according to me, the sound seems weak compared to the PS1 version). I still remember every level and every secret room, so it was a really easy finding all the gems and eggs. ? And this time Tree Tops wasn’t a nightmare (I always feared that level because I got lost every time with that ramps). And even the egg thieves are always the same with their mocking laugh (I remember they were faster on the PS1, but I think I’m wrong as usual ?). Some monsters are less frightful, like the orange ones in the 3rd world (they were on the back cover of the PS1 game, I've always wondered what the hell they were, and I still don't get it!), the carnivorous plants in the Swamp (it's a pleasure to burn those freaking plants! ?), the monster dogs in the 5th world, but I think it’s due to the graphic and the remake (or maybe because I was a child when I saw them for the first time! ?).

 

I like every single world (except the Swamp, it was the least favourite, and I remember the PS1 version was darker), but my favourite is always the 3rd (the Magic Crafters) where there are the wizards with their “Waow!” and “Ah ah ah!” (with wall and platforms coming from everywhere), the mountains with the water, the ice and the clouds. ?️ ?

And this music, of course! I don’t know how much time I spent listening to this one, but surely it was a lot.

The only annoying issue was due to gems I was sure I had picked up, but when I reached the end of the level I saw they were missing, so I back tracked the level and I found them still lying on the floor in plain sight (“Really?! I was sure I had picked them up!”).

And also the camera. It seems too close, and I had some trouble when I was speedrunning through the corridors, since I always smashed to the wall. And this is not fun. ?

 

Now I’ll play the other two (yes, I finally managed to end up the download of 19,6 GB after almost a week) and these will be completely new games.

                                                                                                                               Difficulty: 2/10

                                                                                                                                    Fun 9/10

Just like that the Spyro Trilogy has been completed. First of all I just want to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed these games and it was almost a perfect 10/10 for enjoyment if not for a few minor bugs such as glitching while skateboarding that caused some minor frustration, nothing game breaking though.

 

I wanted this game to be my 50th Platinum so it would always be on display on my profile and am very happy to have this as a milestone Platinum. I Remember playing Spyro as a child 15 years ago and now that I am all grown up, replaying these games (with todays graphics) was truly a blessing.

 

For any lover of Platforming games, the Spyro Trilogy is an experience for you. All 3 Platinum's are by no means difficult and it means you can just enjoy the game as it was meant to be played and chip away at the Plat'

 

Weirdly this game compared to the other 2 in the Trilogy does not require 100% completion (All Gems / Eggs) but it's worth getting them to get the games true ending.

Aliens vs Predator 

 Not Bad for A Human (1.29%)

 

 

Second game in my Aliens phase. Playing as the Predator was extremely enjoyable, relaxing and definitely a stress reliever. Nothing like going invisible and blasting away with a plasma gun or ripping Alien guts out. However, the rest of the game was a stress inducer!  ~150 Collectibles across campaigns, Semi-permadeath mode, and the worst online experience I've ever encountered.  Overall, worth a play (especially if you're an Aliens fan).

 

Thanks @Squirlruler for helping me with proxies, almost a requirement for this game now.

#113 Yakuza Kiwami 2 

A beautiful masterpiece like yakuza 0 it was. Story was full of twists and memorable reveals and the beautiful ending almost had me in tears ?. The added majima saga was the cherry on top and

Spoiler

concluding Makoto's story felt satisfying albeit very saddening just like how yakuza 0 ended with both parting ways.

I really love how the devs gave us the majima saga and you could tell playing it that it was a fan service and I had a huge grin on the entire time.

 

With every yakuza game that I have played so far there's always this enigmatic character that steals the show and for me it was Kawara!

His smug face gives him lots of character appeal much like Awano from yakuza 0 lol

 

As for the substories I applaud the team for going back to the comedic route since yakuza 1 was a little more on the serious side. One thing you gotta know is that Kiryu in substories is not the same as Kiryu in the main story . So many shits and giggles were had from doing photo shoots , being in a photo shoot , lending your sexy voice to a producer and many more . 

 

There were also many references to yakuza 0 which I did not expect like this one. I was laughing the whole time hahaha. 

Spoiler

Hard to believe that the this dude became the dragon of kansai hahahahah

 

And then there's the cabaret club and Majima construction. Oooo boy. I feel like I spent as much time in those as the main game hahah. The depth that those side activities receive is phenomenal and honestly they can almost be a standalone game if given more options perhaps. 

 

In terms of the plat difficulty, it was the easiest that I have played so far and I didn't even need a guide! Then again playing yakuza 0 and kiwami 1 before that gave me lots of experience that everything is just second nature by now. They also toned down on the minigame point requirements although they ramped up the mahjong requirement which for some people might be a turnoff but I actually enjoyed mahjong a lot! The music that plays in the shop was surprisingly good/relaxing as if you're at a calm cafe with some relaxing music. So much so I would just randomly boot the game after a long day from campus for like an hour and I was slowly making progress. 

Finally I wouldn't finish it off before showing some of my favourite tracks. Seriously though the devs always nail it with those tracks ??.

Spoiler

One of my favourite karoake songs. The lyrics are actually sad if you look the meaning up. ( relating to majima's story)

 

First time I heard this in sotenbori I was like F**** yea...

 

This track is from a damn minigame! Love the effort that the devs put into this.

Makes you want to beat up @$$holes lol 

 

Another track that makes you want to beat up @$$holes lol

 

This one literally plays once and once only against an old dude

 

 

Took me more than a month to finish it because of how busy I've been but was totally worth it. Bring on Yakuza remastered 3 Sega!

completed in 6 hours and 41 minutes

platinum rarity 79.82% common

platinum name: Pilgrim (sounds about perfect for a thanksgiving trophy) if i completed it closer to thanksgiving.

 

one more down. after some careful decision making and the fact i'm having a heavy urge for diablo 3: Reaper Of Souls i think i'm going to cut to the chase of the boss game and that is next, i can't start a quicker vita game because i'm close to a level up after a platinum.

#21 - Assassin's Creed - Revelations + DLC 100% (PS3)

The Conqueror  (9,24%)

 

 

I already earned the plat last year in april but never finished any of the DLC. Now i finally have also the 100%. The plat is relatively straight forward like any other AC game but fortunately the single player is not as grindy as AC3. The game itself is pretty fun. I finished the multiplayer for the platinum without boosting and it was actually pretty fun. The DLC on the other hand i think is very hard without boosting. Big big thanks to the awsome team @Roronora_Zoro666 and @Brandon-LCF-Heat for helping me:).

 

The Lost Archive was actually not as bad as expected after the same game mode in the main game. And i finished it pretty quick. I was also afraid of the Warren Vidic trophy but actually managed it after around 4 tries. River Styx took me about the same tries.

Enjoyment: 8.5 /10

Difficulty: 5 /10

[IntroPhenom]

Platinum #37 

Old Man's Journey

 Life, loss, reconciliation, and hope

Rarity: 80.03%

Difficulty: 3/10

Enjoyment: 7/10

 

Old Man's Journey is a simple game that involves moving an old man through the different levels by manipulating the landscape (pulling up hills, lowering bridges, etc.).  The lack of dialogue lets the player focus on the lively and rich scenery, and some flashbacks allow us to know what's going through the old man's mind as he adventures off after receiving a letter from an unknown (later revealed) sender.

 

The story is just as the platinum trophy describes; a full range of emotions.  Two hours is just the right amount of time for the player to follow along with the old man as he reclaims decades of lost time.  It's a good little game.

Spyro the Dragon

Gnasty's Demise

 

Really great remake and enjoyable game, like so many have already said in this thread. So I am not going to add much since I agree with everything that had been said. Only one thing though, I never heard of Spyro before, I know it is unbelievable but I am only playing games on a PlayStation since January 2018. And I never paid much attention to anything else other then PC games. I now wish I had played the original game(s) back when they were released.

 

Or maybe a few more things, as far as the technical aspect of this game is concerned I agree with @Phoenix_argentea about the camera. I missed a lot of stuff when I was doing those flight levels and I think it was mostly due to the camera. For me it is too close to Spyro and too low, it limits your field of view too much. It is not as bad when you are running around blazing Gnorcs and whatnot. Although I missed a quite a few enemies when I was charging them, because of the camera. In this case it was also the turn speed, which is unfortunately unchangeable. But this is just a minor complaint. Everything else is top notch including the trophy hunt. I had a lot of fun burning trophies and chasing Gnorcs, or was it the other way around? Definitely a highlight of this year and a big recommendation from me, even if you usually don't play these kinds of games.

 139. Resistance Burning Skies



 

  Platinum

Earn all trophies

 

Fun meter 5/10

Main campaign really short, story not that interesting, there is no character development and kinda forgettable. Thankfully gameplay ok and minor glitch. Even though this is not what I was expecting from Sony exclusive franchise. Oh well, beggars can't be choosy ?

 

Difficulty 2/10

Online pass required and it cost around $10.  ?

 

In conclusion because there's not many choices for fps on Vita, I think it still worth a try. ?

 #125: Persona 5 

 #126: Guitar Hero Live 

 #127: Batman Arkham Asylum 

 #128: Burly Men at Sea 

 #129: Burnout Paradise Remastered 

 

Finally the platinum drought has ended.

 

Persona 5 was incredible and is probably in my top 5 games of all time, and if not at least top 10. Everything about it is fantastic, especially the story, art style, music and characters.

 

Guitar Hero Live is finally done after two years. It's a shame the online is going down as I had a lot of fun with the game over the years and not being able to play most of the roster anymore is disappointing. At least it encouraged me to finally finish the one million strum grind.

 

Batman Arkham Asylum is another one of my favorite games so it was a joy getting to play through it again with updated graphics. I've probably played through this game 10 times at this point but never with trophies so that was an added bonus. 

 

Burly Men at Sea was a chill game, but pretty pointless in my opinion. It's got a little humor to it but nothing really happens. 

 

Burnout was great fun. It was the first non-Nintendo game I ever played as a kid so it was nice going back to it and actually know what I was doing.

#127 Spyro the Dragon

16th Nov 2018

I love this series and the first Spyro game is 2nd best for me.

 

#128 Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!

17th Nov 2018

The 2nd Spyro game is 3rd best for me as collecting Orbs was not as fun as rescuing Dragons and collecting Dragon Eggs, but I liked the Cutscenes then entering and leaving a World.

I time travelled to October 2019 whilst playing this. Can't imagine playing it without time skipping. Not bad for a free game.

#182: Rewards of Baking

 

 

Same as the PS4 version; a simplistic platformer with the aesthetic of an unlicensed game. Fun, easy, and a pretty unique plat.

 #246 

 

 

My Brother Rabbit

 

Another Artifex Mundi game but this one felt a lot different to the others because each of it's five chapters essentially play out like giant hidden object puzzles with adventure game elements and beautifully drawn environments. The game's story takes place entirely within the mind of a sick child whose own story plays out within animated vignettes that take place between each chapter. The actual story told within the game chapters takes place between the sick child's toy bunny and an animated plant. Interestingly the game features no dialogue and objectives are delivered in the form of thought bubbles from the toy bunny. The soundtrack is absolutely beautiful and, as mentioned before, the environment stills are beautifully drawn. I enjoyed it very much. Recommended!

Well this was quite an Odyssey. More than 100 hours of pure fun. I'm even a little bit sad that it's over (for now). Can't wait to play the DLCs.
