Chain of Memories Master

 

Yes, my first Kingdom Hearts platinum... and it's the f'king black sheep of the series.

 

I burned the midnight oil for two night to get Riku up to Level 99. Avoid this platinum like the plague, folks, it's not worth your sanity to try to keep constantly farming rooms (or run from battles to avoid having to waste Strong Initiative cards which you need to weaken all of the mobs in Castle Oblivion floor which is the best place to farm as Riku's premade deck is the best he has) and it won't help you against the Seeker of the Darkness final boss because Ansem still wrecked my crap ten times because you can't just spam attack, you have to break his most dangerous sleights. After finally getting Proud Player Riku, I went back to my Sora file and spent four more hours getting those last 15 levels with Sora and the remaining parts of his journal. This game earns its kusogrande title because of the B.S. luck you need to get everything. ?

 

Okay, that's too mean. I didn't hate the game. The story was very well written, it's just the gameplay was too weird and hard to get into and you end up having to grind stuff. Also, it has the WORST 100 Acre Woods mini game ever. Rabbit can bury his stupid veggies in a hole of sewage for all I care. Took me 100 tries to get the required 150 points because Pooh kept getting hit by pumpkins. The other minigames were not as bad though I failed at a couple of them. Bumble Buster is easily the second worst Pooh game in this title because it's an actual battle with the stupid cards and you can't get the trophy the first time you play the mini-game as you only get 50 bees.

 

As I said, I don't regret playing this game. Earning the platinum however was a Herculean labor and I know there will neverr be a re:Chain of Memories platinum trophy speedrun because of the Level Master trophies taking 8 hours each. That is not to say I will relish having to complete Kingdom Hearts 1 or 2 Final Mix on the hardest difficulty as I will die. A LOT. ?

 

(And before you say I didn't die here, I did die on bosses - Sora got wiped by Marluxia #1 because the graceful ass kept teleporting too far away and his second form requires precise targeting to hit him with Lethal Frame, Riku got wiped by Vexen three times, Riku Replica final form six times, and Ansem FIFTEEN TIMES due to his stupid premade decks and the fact that the only way he can heal is by Mickey friend cards. Also, Sora had to switch decks for Trickmaster and Ursula as their hit targets are too high up for Lethal Frame to connect.)

Platinum # 155

Persona 4 Golden

 

Enjoyment 8/10

Difficulty 8/10

 

After almost three years i finally got this son of a bitch. I should've gotten it a week ago but i missed a book (missable) and had to do another playthrough. Anyways I really enjoyed this game a lot. My first real persona game was Persona 5 and i loved it, so i decided to go back and give this one a fair try instead of the 2 hours I had given it before. It was very enjoyable and fun especially the writing and the characters, though for me its nowhere near Persona 5 in terms of everything else (style, music, gameplay, visuals, etc.) If anyone has any question regarding this game's platinum trophy, i'm free to answer it as i played through the whole game 3 times. I'm finally glad at looking at this beautiful rare platinum.

 #268- Drowning Platinum    (PS4)

[GraniteSnake]

 #128: Air Conflicts: Vietnam - Ultimate Edition (PS4)

Another game I've tried out through PS Now. A very mediocre flight simulator. Graphics are not easy on the eye, and the game play is bland and repetitive. The majority of the campaign consisted of doing the same tasks over and over again with little to no variety in the landscape nor mission tasks. The multiplayer trophies seem easy at a glance, but gathering six people in a game as old and obscure as this is not easy. We got it done eventually though, big thank you to all involved. Not a game I'd recommend. Pacific Carriers seems like it'll be a lot better, which I'll play through at some stage.

 

In other news, I've finally started the MP section of Grand Theft Auto IV. It's off to a smooth start, and I'm thinking I might just be able to pick up the platinum after all these years..

platinum #341 Lego Dimensions (ps3)

completed in 1 week and 1 day

platinum rarity 9.83% very rare (2.39% for 100% complete and DLC)

platinum name: Vortech's Bane

game difficulty 3/10 (highly reccomend this game only for the ps4 version) a flying vehicle breaks the game somewhat or using superman. DLC packs have gone up significantly over the past year.

 

game was a glitchy glitchy mess compared to the ps4 sometimes the game froze in rifts, sometimes it froze in levels. even had to play on my secondary ps3 on one level because it kept freezing up every time. next games will be Doodle God (ps4) and Old Man's Journey (ps4) something to start us off easy and back to the grind though that is for tomorrow.

#347 - This War of Mine

 

Pretty good game, but after a few playthroughs you just end up going through the motions. The game mechanics worked well for the most part, although adults not beig able to "talk" when they're sad is kind of dumb. The "luxury items" also did buggger all to help cure mental heatlh.

 

 

Enjoyment: 7.5

Difficulty: 4

 74 - Dead Cells (6,25%)

Really fun game at lower level but at 4BC difficulty it's more frustrating than anything. Basiclly 4BC just mean inquisitor everywhere (white wizard who can shoot through walls) and every ennemies can teleport on you. Especially the elites who can do it while charging their AoE.

Republique – PS4 (#180)

 

 

"The Director"

 

This was a very odd, un-even experience. The game is a port of a mobile, 5 episode, stealth adventure game. Each episode remains book ended by its title card and credits. The episodes were purposefully written and crafted with slight changes in the mechanics and framework for the story.  The story is likely the strongest part of this game. It is slowly unpacked revealing the protagonist’s dilemma up to the poetic climax. There are some cut scenes to help push the story, but the rest is told thru voice overs on the collectibles which litter (plague(?)) this game.

 

The mechanics of the game are where the largest problems lie. It was refreshing to control the protagonist by jumping between surveillance cameras in a stealth game. You can jump ahead to scout guards and review their movement patterns. This is key as there is no way to neutralize all of the guards. For example, in the second chapter, the guards have less predictable paths. Another chapter uses the tyrant mechanic of a single, dangerous enemy wandering the entire level with bounding footsteps and speaking under his breath.  The guards seem very incapable of finding, except when you think you are safe.  The pacing is where it all falls apart. The game felt so painfully slow. Maybe it was due to running around trying to find every single collectible and listening to its voice over. It should have been an 8-10 hour adventure, but I spent about 16 hours getting to the ending.

 

The collectibles hunt needed for the platinum really does burden this game. The collectibles include tapes recorded by a counter revolutionary voiced by David Hayter (woo), that were brutal to listen through with their cringey language and clichéd nature. The game also has banned books which were mostly a walk down classic literature as framed by the utilitarian world created in the game. The developers also included game cartridges with real, modern games they felt the need to give shouts out, like Transistor, Flower, Guacamelee!. Finally, the rest of the collectibles were found as e-mail messages on computers, voicemails on phones, posters, random items throughout the levels.

 

I can certainly recommend this game for the story, but warn the platinum is a tedious treasure hunt.

#174 +100% DLC -　テイルズオブゼスティリア　（wrote this myself lol)

 

For the 4th time this game has been platinumed by me, and it was the easiest to do this time around, even if it was in Japanese ( seriously the first thing after hearing Alisha in JP was, hey i know this voice, it's Alice from SAO ;d )

All bosses are a joke when you have OP Rose in your party, just two skills are needed to cheese everything with her.

Making all the snacks also didn't take very long as it can take hours, even a day if you're unlucky, overall i did run around Lohgrin for about two hours in total ( AFK ), after DLC's completion it popped after like 5 or less minutes of running, all i needed was one snack, so i was lucky with that trophy, item collector popped while in DLC. Speedy Duo got on the first try with 1:46minutes of completion time in that Crucible ( because this time i controlled Rose instead of Alisha who i controlled  in the previous 3 runs )

 

Oh and Sweet 16 was easy, this time i farmed it in a more efficient way than i did in the past.

By doing the Crucible in Zaphgott Moor.

 

PS. Somehow even made it in top 50 fastest achievers ( for now 35th )

Next plat is... well it has been decided a long time ago

Time to continue!

 #247 Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy

 

Ace Attorney Trilogy 
Get every trophy.

 

I used to play these games many years ago on Nintendo DS, and they were among my favorites back then. They were still a lot of fun on PS4, even though I was able to remember some important story parts of it. Now I'm hoping for a port of the other Ace Attorney games, like Miles Edgeworth Investigations or Apollo Justice - fingers crossed! 

 

All 3 games can take a good amount of time if you don't skip anything and don't use a guide. I'd highly recommend to do so since you'll miss out on a great story and an addictive gameplay otherwise. However, even if you decided to skip, it can take a while since you'll need to hold circle all the time.

#136 The LEGO Movie 2: The Videogame

2nd Mar 2019

The Game based on the LEGO Movie 2 and 1st LEGO game to use the same gameplay as LEGO Worlds. For being a LEGO Worlds-Style LEGO Game it was fun and it did both have the same Story as the Movie it's based and it's own 2 Player take on the story

Spoiler

Until the last level I thought it was going to be different from the Movie since Lucy was never taken and the others being on other planets well Batman was on the last planet but unlike Movie He was willing to help to break his own wedding, oh there's almost no "musical" nonsense like the Movie besides Lucy's solo of Everything is not awesome Song.

Looks like this "LEGO Movie" based LEGO Game will have DLC, One being a DLC Planet based on the Prequel "The LEGO Movie", maybe the other two planets is based on "The LEGO Batman Movie" and "The LEGO Ninjago Movie"?

I got all the characters before plating it and still ended being the fastest(For now anyway).

Be warned, There's a Bug that only happen you then You have almost everything in game, for me it was just opening two damn Mega-Relics and on to open the 3rd Mega-Relic and then... nothing.

#381- Rayman Legends

Legendary 
Win all trophies in the game!

 

 

If you want to read my thoughts on the rest of the game, here are links to my KYC posts: Day 1 & Final Review. That online grind was something else.. I only got 2 Diamond cups the entire time, and it took forever to reach the final level of awesomeness. ._. So glad to not have to do those challenges every single morning anymore.

Chalice of Torment - Earn all Trophies

 

Achieved: March 3th, 2019

PSNP's RS: Rare

Difficulty: 4

Enjoyment: 8

 

Even though this game breaks no grounds, it feels exactly like what Lara needed to be the character she'll be in upcoming entries. The trophies are very manageable and exploration feels better than in the previous two games. I did 2 playthroughs: a 100% One With the Jungle run and a Deadly Obsession NG+ run for the last trophy. The game was overall easy but the fear of losing close to 1 hour of progress at certain parts of my Deadly Obsession run gave it a sense of tension I enjoyed in spite of dying only once and losing only about 10 minutes of progress. The OST surprised me this time, really good stuff! I will purchase the Season Pass and do the DLC tombs to try and maintain 100% trophy completion. Now I jump back to my run of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 after interrupting it twice, hopefully no more

 #40 - Kingdom Hearts 3

 

 

What to say. It's been a journey alright and I really wanted this one to be my milestone platinum and the game obliged by being easy to plat and not requiring anything special from me while for the most part being fun to play. The grinding for materials went faster than expected and I'm very grateful for that. This plat is closing a long chapter in my life and now I can go back and get plats I left behind in other Kingdom Hearts games. None will be as easy as this but they all will be mine

I love this game. I got addicted to it pretty quickly. I'm debating on whether or not I'd like to plat the Vita version, Dead or Alive Xtreme 3: Venus. I'm also looking forward to Scarlet!

32# - Kingdom Hearts 3

Kingdom Hearts III Complete Master

Date Earned: 19th February 2019

Completed in 3 Weeks, 6 Hours

Honestly, this game was a bit of a miss with me. I missed the final fantasy cameo's, there is something that just feels wrong without them. It was an enjoyable ride to the end of the story, but the finding of the treasure just was frustrating. Thank goodness for PowerPyx's video guides, they were a absolute livesaver. Combat was fun, but i felt that you either felt wayyyy too weak, or massively overpowered, there wasnt much of a balance, if any. 

 

My biggest gripe was the story. Now, as you can see on my account, i have only platinumed the mainline games in the series, and no spinoff games. Basically, the game went like this. Disney World> Beat Boss> Leave World > Plot Dump> Next Disney World. That infuriated me to no end, because IF I WANT TO CONTINUE THE CRUCIAL STORY, I HAVE TO SKIP OVER THE WORLDS. The Secret Ending left me with more questions than answers.
