Platinum #208

LEGO Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure Continues

The Holy Grail, Dr. Jones
All trophies unlocked

 

Another LEGO game down. This was incredibly glitchy. Had a lot of "complete all" trophies not pop even after getting 100% in a hub or the game itself, so replaying the flying missions was awful. The game froze 5 times at least which is never fun in a LEGO game being up in the air on whether or not your save file gets curropted by the autosave it froze during.

 

Structurally though I loved the way this game was done. I didn't really do the level creator other than for trophies, but having that in a LEGO game is great and fitting. But I like the smaller hub areas per section of the game. It made getting 100% feel a lot less annoying, and the levels were a lot shorter. I wish they had made the portable games more like this [up until they were actually able to put console comparative versions like LEGO Batman 3 out there]. But they don't even make them anymore so... The levels were relatively small, with a bigger focus on doing stuff in the hub to unlock various levels. And what I liked most about the hubs was it actually remember what you did so you didn't have to redo puzzles and unlock shit every single time you reboot the game or reload into the hub. Even remembers stray studs being picked up. Personally loved that.

 

Did not like needing to remember the spawn points of specific characters to grab to do 100% of the hub though. The hubs aren't too bad to figure out, lots of identifiable areas so it's pretty easy to remember things. But it's always annoying.

 

Other than glitches the trophy list was fine aside from 100% which required you to go into each chapter in the level editor to buy shit, not hard just annoying to do. And beyond that the only annoying trophy is the one for using free play to replay every story chapter. Otherwise you wouldn't have to replay them and it would've been better. Having no Minikits, no person in peril, none of the padding of the newer games was great.

 

Gotta get back on the hubs for a bit since that reminds me. The bricks were more fun to earn as it was actually fun to roam around the hub and find the 10/10 for the red, blue and green bricks. I can't overstate how much I liked that the hubs remembered wtf you do. It made trying to get everything yourself so much fun. And you found 5 hidden levels in a lot of neat ways. And re-entering a story level door you'd be put into the 'aftermath' of that story level and have something new to do for a gold chest, you get 5 for the revisits and 5 for the hidden levels and after using the 10 to rebuild something you play the bonus level to get 1m studs [I know a few older LEGO games have this but I can't think of which ones, I'm not a big fan of these they're just annoying tbh].

 

There was however a huge thing I hated [other than glitches], the driving. It was awwwwwwwful. And every single story chapter had one dedicated to it, and the revisited one was to find 10 blue balloons and that was also tedious. I can't even determine if the main issue is the controls or the fucking atrocious camera. I think it's equally both, it's hard to really say. You just can't tell where you're actually going. This is especially dreadful for flying missions; another trophy that glitched on me and had me go through all the hubs after 100% to do them all again and hope to Yevon I wouldn't have to do it again after... pain.

 

Overall I quite liked the game, it's not without it's issues. A lot of them are similar to any other LEGO game's problems. Oh, but free play is garbage. 4 characters is too many to have around in the smaller levels in this game. The extra characters got in the way more than helped out and you can't switch midlevel so it's kind of pointless to me.

 

Happy to have another LEGO game off the backlog. Especially one with so little padding compared to more recent ones, looking at you LEGO Batman 3 on console [thanks to the hub planets... and quests out the ass... and minikits... and character tokens... and just way too much].

 

edit; Oh one thing I forgot that was a huge problem is the jumping, it felt short about half of the time. So some jumps up onto platforms [especially in the hidden puzzle rooms] were way more difficult than they need to be. Even doing the little jump dive didn't help at times, but usually that's how you'd cheat through it. It was quite annoying, and the studs disappeared really quickly compared to other games that I remember. And when it autosaves you can't enter a level which can get annoying as you have to stand around a lot, but that was probably due to when it was made + the PS3.

Platinum #49

Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep (PS4)


Difficulty: 3/10
Enjoyment: 4/10

   
 

After KH2 the next platinum in the KH series. The game isn't too difficult once you understand how everything works, I even consider it as the easiest KH game. The only reason for that is the fact that with the abilities Leaf Bracer, Damage Syphon, Once More, Second Chance + Shotlock commands + the whole deck full of Cure spells you can basically kill EVERY enemy in the game and you'll never die (if you're careful and spam the roll button at all times, use your shotlock command in between enemy attacks and use cure spells imediately if you get hit). Even the hardest boss in the game wasn't as hard as he seemed to be, just a bit...annoying. The critical run was just tedious after a while 'cause everytime I got stuck in a boss fight, I would just use the strategy and destroy him (that was basically my entire endgame).
That's also one reason why I didn't enjoy the game as much as I wanted to, it was just too easy and 'cheap' in the end.

I enjoyed the story, and the battle system is a welcome change that made me experiment with command melding and getting new attacks. But after 40 hours of gameplay, the story was done and I had my strategy for every boss. That's where the enjoyment ended, sadly. After that came nearly 80 boring hours of just collecting stuff and completing minigames, three times in a row the same things.
Also, I hate the command board minigame, that made me FURIOUS sometimes. ?

Long story short: the game is good, the story is good, even some minigames are good, but the platinum/reports are just ridiculous. 40 hours of content until you've done what you want to do (all character stories and both ending stories), and then 80+ hours for the reports until you get platinum.

Still, even though the game/platinum wasn't that much fun, I'm still very happy I'm done with it. And finally I understand a few things in the whole series !

At least I think so ?

Platinum #18

Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs

Platinum Trophy

Earn all Gold, Silver, and Bronze Trophies within Ice Age 3

 

Lmao this game was not that bad. It was a very simple and easy platformer that did not provide a large challenge. It had surprisingly decent gameplay and was the definition of a perfectly fine and easy platinum. The egg time challenges were kind of annoying though.

 

 

 

Platinum #19

Scribblenauts Mega Pack

Scribblenauts Superstar!
Unlock all other trophies.

 

This trophy was a huge pain in the ass to do. Scribblenauts Unlimited is the easy part of the Mega Pack with its somewhat short length and easy structure. Unmasked however is where the real awfulness comes in. The grind you have to do at the end of the game is terrible. I hated repeatedly doing feats to gain currency for costumes I would never use. The actions were so boring and it would make me not recommend platting this game. I honestly don't know why they just didn't do two separate lists for this game. Steam has more than enough achievements for a full platinum trophy and Unlimited is essentially a full trophy list already.

 

20th plat is coming up and it is likely going to be either ratchet and clank into the nexus or ratchet deadlocked. Fun!

Easy plat. Again, done mostly to pretty up my Common Platinum collection.

 

 

 

#293: Master of the Classics

 

Fuck old arcade games.

 

YES YES, I KNOW, these are classics that paved the way for bigger better things, but seriously, fuck these clunky controlled cheap ass difficulty relics from the past. It's a badass looking platinum, but that's all.

 

 

 

#294: The Completionist

 

After 3 months of procrastination, I finally did it!

 

It's a pretty fun game, one that isn't hard as long as you do what RPGs are known for; taking some time to grind up to get stronger. And I mean that too, invest a little time in your students and school, and in no time flat, you'll be dominating everything. A few tricky trophies here and there, but that's where fantastic guides like this come into play!

  #176: Death Mark - Death Mark

 

I'm usually not into horror stuff but with a visual novel I think it makes it a bit more manageable since there isn't much gameplay and I don't have to worry about screwing up so much But I really enjoyed this one and found it really creepy. You basically play as someone who has a mysterious mark on their wrist that if he doesn't get rid of a ghost haunting a certain place he will lose his memories over time and die by dawn. Luckily you have a nice cast of secondary characters to partner up with so you aren't always really alone, my favorite of them being Mashita since he's an ex-detective and kind of a bro The ghosts though were genuinely creepy looking in which they looked like a mix between uncanny valley and something you would see in a bizarre fever dream or a sleep paralysis episode and I think that's a really good way to design a creepy monster or ghost enemy.

 

Definitely recommend this game though especially if you're in the mood for something spooky.

#84

Dark Souls: Remastered

 

This is my first Dark Souls platinum so I'm pretty proud of it.  I got the Demon's Souls platinum on the PS3 and the Bloodborne platinum a couple years ago.  I finally completed it with the help of my friend Andremal who started at the same time and finished a few days before me.

I've mostly been afraid to play games like this because they prove to be pretty difficult... but for some reason i felt up to the challenge.  I may even finish the 2nd and 3rd game!  The gameplay is not bad for a game that was created for the PS3 but I will say that it did feel "old" (that coming from a 40 year old who started on an Atari).

 

Otherwise I give it a 9/10

Platinum #497: 

 

 

Difficulty: 2/10 (w/ guide)

Playtime: 3 and a half hours

Enjoyment: 8/10

 

Another amicably twisted adventure game from the makers of MechaNika, set in the same universe... apart from some compunctions in narrative focus, if you've played one, you've more or less played the other. This isn't inherently a bad thing, however. The writing is still as sharp (no pun intended), and a fair few situations encountered makes its companion piece seem comparatively sedate.

 

The titular Ms. Knife is a more than capable butcher's daughter facing both an existential crisis (she hates to see animals in fear) and the potential ruin of her family business from harsh competition. The solution? Create a new religion to make animals embrace their grisly fate willingly, tenets, scripture, martyr, the whole bit. As obvious as it gets. And the tools to achieve these lofty aims lie strewn about a very familiar looking street. All it takes is a little bit of grey matter (or a guide, full disclosure!) and a flagon of hallucinogenic pig's blood...

 

It's a good time to be had if this kind of thing is your fancy, with Psychotic's satirical edge honed and a little more goal-oriented than last time. In particular, I approve of its attitude towards the debate of quality vs. price as it applies to food, and by extention, mortar and brick shops vs. supermarkets. Many people don't go there, let alone with the judicious verve of Psychotic exhibit in this instance.

 

Sure, it can get a little tedious running up and down the same street (again, like in the first one), and overall there seems to be fewer points of interaction. But I'd argue the heights of its charming derangement far exceed that of its companion piece when it's really cooking (pardon yet another pun). It's got a good heart, and never veers into shock for its own sake. Support a promising dev, and get yourself a shiny easy platinum while you're at it!

Platinum 25: Fallout 4

 

I began this game years ago, when it first came out. After getting all the different faction endings and being so underwhelmed by the game itself, I kinda gave up on it. I'd load it up from time to time and work on different parts but never considered going for the platinum, much less a full 100% of all content. However, after many tries, I finally got the Benevolent Leader trophy to swing my way and then just had to grind to 50. It was a nice surprise this week. Now I need to select a game from the backlog to work on.

#365 - 428: Shibuya Scramble

This was great. It hasn't topped Steins;Gate as my favourite VN, but I don't think anything ever will. It's definitely up there though. I was put off by the live action shots at first, but they grew on me - I prefer the style of other VNs overall I'd say, but I wouldn't be opposed to more like this one. All of the characters were good and I liked how each character's route had a different theme to it. For example, Osawa's being psychological horror and Tama's being slapstick comedy. It was also interesting to see how all of the separate stories connect and come together and how a decision you make as one character can completely change the outcome of a differen't character's route. The game has 85 bad endings/game overs, so there's plenty of ways to mess things up. I admit to using a guide - I just personally find VNs more enjoyable when I just focus on the story and don't have to worry about decisions I make since the guides lead to all the endings eventually anyway, but without a guide this game could actually be quite hard.

 

Tama's route was my favourite overall I'd say, but none of the routes are bad or boring which is impressive. Can't say the same for all the bonus post-game content, unfortunately. That Canaan scenario you unlock by getting the true ending wasn't very interesting to me and some of the side character short stories weren't particularly interesting either - does the game really expect me to care about a delivery guy who was in 2-3 scenes of the entire game? That said, the side character short stories of characters I did actually like were pretty fun little diversions, they only last a few minutes each and it was nice to see some of the more under-utilized characters get some more screentime.

 

This isn't going to be a VN that I end up stacking like the Steins;Gate games, but I did certainly enjoy my time with it and whenever someone asks for VN recommendations, this one will be on the list. It's a shame the sequel is an anime that apparently isn't particularly good instead of another game, but this offered enough closure itself that I'm ok with completely ignoring the anime.

You Are Nioh
Obtained all trophies.

 

Once again Team Ninja creates another really good souls like game. Nioh 2 is a very fun game like Nioh 1 and imo the game is easier as Nioh 1 had a lot of unfair battles which were rather tedious. The sequel is still a challenging game but more fair compared to the first tittle. The main reason why i got this game was to play it with my friend @SealedCard which i did except for the solo missions and there's only a few of those. If you enjoy souls like games along with co op. Nioh 2 is highly recommended.
