Plat 310 - Life is Strange 2 (continuing the tradition of the plat image not showing up on PSNP)

 

Right before playing this game I watched the movie Thelma & Louise having no idea that LiS2 was going to be about a pair of people accidentally killing someone and then having to go on the run trying to start a new life in Mexico...that was weird.

 

As for the game I liked it a lot more than LiS1 but not as much as Before the Storm. The brothers were good characters and I like the different beats they met along the way. I ended up choosing kind of the evil ending but it developed slowly as I started off trying to do go but by the end I was like "fuck all these people" and started not caring what happened to humans

 

If you haven't played it yet it is worth a run through.

 

Plat 311- LEGO Ninjago Movie: The Videogame

 

Wow, this game can go fuck itself.

 

The load times, the shitty map, the boring combat, the insufferable "humour", the insane amount of collectibles that don't do anything, the crashing, the piss poor platforming...this game was a complete mess.

 

Seriously what was the point of collecting all the Gold Bricks? besides letting me into some secret areas they didn't do anything...what was in those secret areas? Usually more gold bricks. Like would it have been too much to think that the Secret Scrolls would be in the secret areas so you want gold bricks to unlock better abilities?

 

How about the fact that there was like 20 different power ups so you had to keep switching your characters to unlock a gold brick (which of course does nothing)

 

Or the radar that told you the brick was North...but didn't tell you to go North you actually had to South, over a mountain, then take a turn and another turn and another turn and then fall down a hole which brings you on a slide that now leads you north of where you started...Thanks radar didn't mention that bullshit...how about just giving me a map of the level so I can see where things are.

 

Or how about having like 150 characters and when I platted the game I was still missing one. Turns out you had to put a code in to get that character...yeah I will get right on that. I mean I need to have another character that looks the exact same as the other 150.

 

The load times...what was going on with the load times. And of course the game would crash constantly so I had to reload everything.

 

I am glad this game was free because it is just the worst Lego game I have ever played...and I played one on the Vita before.

Platinum 112 : Bugsnax

When the trailer for this got first got shown at one of the State of Play shows, I think a lot of people assumed it was just going to be a kids game with meme appeal, what with the song and all. Without wanting to spoil it, t's not just that. It goes places that I didn't expect a game about catching snack-based bugs would go. Gameplay wise, it's like Pokémon Snap with some light puzzle elements.

It's not going to be to everyones liking but it is a case of not judging a book by its cover. Trophy wise, it's an easy platinum with no missable trophies.

Also, Bunger is best snax.

#512 - Trüberbrook

 

 

This point-and-click was a bit underwhelming. It looks great, but the story was kind of boring and the characters somewhat dull. Inventory system was a bit odd as well, but after getting used to it it worked pretty well. Still decent overall.

 

 

Enjoyment: 6

Difficulty: 2

[Boomshanks]

( 59)  Fuse

Platinum Trophy

 

 

Enjoyment: Story 5/10  -  Echelon 10/10

Difficulty:   6/10

 

Oh how my heart weeps for what could have been. The trailer to Overstrike looked incredible. It had the fun characters and snappy dialogue we come to expect from Insomniac Games. And of course, it had the weapons. And then… this came out.

 

 

If I had to describe Fuse in two words it would be generic and bland ?. It’s like taking the average of every FPS out there and completely draining it of it’s soul. I can’t remember anything about the story. The missions are dull, the characters forgettable, there isn’t that much enemy variety and the bosses are mostly just bullet sponges. I played through the entire game co-op with a friend and neither of us could really get into it. It was more like, oh yeah we still have this game lying around as well.

 

To be fair the weapons are cool. Each character has a unique weapon and you can switch between the characters at any time. On my first co-op playthrough I mostly used Dalton. Years later I decided to clean up the backlog and played through the game solo on the hardest difficulty. Here I used all the characters equally and that certainly makes the game more fun, though it’s still bland as hell. Except for Dalton, the idea for all of the other weapons is pretty much the same – just shoot your weapon at the bad guys, no strategy involved.

 

However, this game really wasn’t meant to be played alone. It was meant to be played as a group. When you have 3 or 4 players, each with its own character the game starts to come alive, especially in the Echelon mode – consisting of 12 waves of increasing difficulty with sometimes multiple bosses in a single wave. Where before, the game was just very average, now it was incredible. I had a great boosting session with @HyperFusion0 and @Ragemaru where we aimed to five star all of the Echelon Maps for the respective trophies. Somehow the game just completely hit that sweet spot of being very challenging but not impossible. It was just a continuous 25 minutes of fun and focus with each map and getting five stars for each of them was immensely satisfying . I have to say, this was the most fun I’ve had with the game in a long time. Something I had never expected with Fuse. Before I was frustrated that the maps had to be completed with 2+ players so I had to boost them, but now I’m really glad that they were and I can absolutely see why the developers made them that way.

 

The last trophy I needed was for upgrading all the Team Perks. Going through the entire campaign only got me enough Credits to fully upgrade 1 perk. And there are 16 perks… Seriously, the payout in campaign is ridiculously low. However, in Echelon the payout is much better and since I had so much fun with the mode I decided to just play it legit instead of using the exploit where you can spend your credits multiple times. So yeah, in short this was a game of extremes. The campaign was incredibly boring and generic, but Echelon was incredible to play with a team.

                                                                                                         #117 Persona: 4 Arena Ultimax

                                                                                         

 

 

                                                                                                                        Thou Art I

 

                                                                                                    

 

I am so glad that I platinumed this game and to have it in my list together with Persona 4 Golden for the Vita. I really liked the RPG and the possibility to get to know more about the characters without "having" to play Persona 4 Dancing All Night, since that is simply not me genre. I am way more into beat em up's so that was a perfect match. It was also free on PS Plus some time ago.

 

Anyway, the game is great and looks stunning! One of the best fighters I've played. Story wise it was only okay The interaction between the characters were the best parts while the actual story was kinda bad. I also skipped the Persona 3 story, since I don't have any connection to that game and it would've taken another 6 hours to read everything.

 

When it comes to getting the platinum the challenge mode was the hardest task. The guide says that with the Margaret DLC the difficulty is at a 5. For me it was more like a 7 or so. However I liked the challenge itself and the feeling of overcoming certain difficulties and finally nailing that one combo after hours! Completing all the challenges for one character was a fantastic feeling. The rest of the game is kinda grindy but not too bad and still fun, simply because the game plays so great. I wonder if they will ever do a Persona 5 fighting game?

[Golem25]

Platinum #73 - LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7 (Vita)

 

 All Finished! - Acquire all trophies.

32,097 Owners - 11,129 Achievers for a percentage of 34.69% (average completion; 43.08%)

 

 

Enjoyment; 7/10

Difficulty; 1/10

Trophies; 6/10 (tiles are nice enough, some interesting requirements)

Appreciation for Deluminators; 1/10

 

Well, this was a quick one; I started it up just before the weekend, and now I've burnt through the whole thing already with a TTP (Time-To-Plat) of about 12 hours.

 

Bear in mind that this is the Vita version rather than the game found on PS3 and PS4, and as such, is just another upscaled port of a 3DS game. Just like all other LEGO titles on Vita. While I'm grateful to have anything to play at all on this beautiful handheld, it's just so typical of how it was treated by third parties - but really, can you blame them when the Vita was sunk by Sony's own lackadaisical attitude?

 

Featuring about fourteen levels from across three books/four movies, LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7 charts the grimdark half of the saga with the titular character and chums training for and facing off against a pale guy without a nose and his eclectic band of Saturday morning cartoon villains. This being the first LEGO title on Vita, it is still level- rather than challenge-based, and I had some good fun ploughing through the 14 or so included in the game. The formula used by the series is well known, you swap characters with different abilities in and out to fight opponents and solve puzzles, and you are required to replay each character to uncover every single collectible.

 

The list is pretty standard fare for a LEGO game but has a 'duel' mode tacked on wherein you need to beat every single playable character by casting spells back and forth. It has very little depth, but with how quickly you could progress I still actually enjoyed it. Very little challenge overall, obviously, but at very few points did it become grating. Usually when my patience did get tested, it was because of the Deluminator mechanic, which forces you to snuff out one lamp to turn on one across the level - this was pretty pointless and seemed to mostly serve as padding. It was later copy+pasted in the LEGO Chima game, also on Vita, which goes to show these titles were made on a budget.

 

But overall, enough fun to have been worth the timesink and the resub to PS Plus (I had forgotten all about getting this one as game of the month years back, I actually resubbed last week in preparation for PS5 and to get Bugsnax for free). I will continue cleanup of my backlog next and start up LEGO Jurassic World - curious to see if the challenge-based approach in that game will prove inferior to the 'old style' of LEGO Vita game espoused by Harry Potter.

                                                                                                  ~ Worthy of Legend ~
                                                                                                           Difficulty: 8/10 ~ Enjoyment: 9/10

I have spent years wondering what it would be like to write a guide for a game. The idea always sounded exciting, but my anxieties never failed to stand menacingly in the way and leave me second-guessing myself with questions like: “Would it be good enough? What if it was filled with mistakes? Would I even make any sense?” But, like anything in life, the only way forward is by taking a deep breath, giving it a shot, and panicking about it later.
 
So, I started writing.

In co-authoring a guide for Jotun, I have thrashed each of the game’s six bosses dozens upon dozens of times, roamed every corner of the game’s hand-drawn world, pored over the game’s digital art book to learn the correct technical terms for all of Jotun’s oddities, and spent weeks drafting (and filming) strategies in the pursuit of consistency. As the process started coming to a close and the platinum trophy was squared away, I started to wonder: Was it all worth it? Well, allow me to answer that question by gushing about the game a bit.  

When you first set foot in the world of Jotun, Thora, the game’s strong-willed protagonist, feels deceptively slow and clunky to control. She behaves more like a violent little slug than a true Viking warrior. But, as you march along, giving the smackdown to the bosses that stand in your way, the intricacies of combat will start to sink in. Every swing of your axe will feel calculated and deliberate, every roll will feel like part of a choreographed dance, and every use of your God Powers will feel empowering. The real beauty of Jotun lies in a complete understanding of the game’s combat and in the utter dominance you display when you reduce these mighty Jötnar to dust.

Even after spending countless hours experiencing it all, part of me wants to jump back in and keep playing. The bosses are like old sparring partners that dare you to get a faster time or to beat them without getting hit and I will miss rising to their relentless challenges. If you are looking for something to really test your mettle, you will find it with Jotun. I loved every minute of my time with the game, I was able to conquer my anxieties and help write a guide I can be proud of, and I learned so much about the guide-writing process along the way thanks to my patient friend and co-author @Ellie-nyan.

Spider-Man: Miles Morales (PS5)

Difficulty: 2/10

Time: 19 hours

 

This is my first PS5 platinum! I must say that visually the game is excellent on a PS5 and there are limited load times so that helps. I liked the story although I will say that it is a short game and people often call it a "glorified DLC", I am fine with it currently as I didn't want to spend too long traversing an open world for my first PS5 game. I will say that it is probably worth waiting for a sale of this game before picking it up, I paid full price because I got the PS5 and needed a game to play on release date. Going forward I will play Astro's Playroom and Demon's Souls from the launch line-up, then I feel like the good stuff will only come in around March 2021 after that point. However, I am pleasantly surprised by how many of my games are backwards compatible from PS4 to PS5, so I feel like the PS5 could very easily replace my PS4 Pro for playing PS4 games. While playing this game I ended up choosing the 60 FPS option after spending some hours in "Fidelity" mode which has the fancy ray tracing which shows the game in extremely high detail, I feel like playing with the higher frame rate was better for me and honestly the visuals are still incredible even if you choose the "Performance" option, so you're not losing out on much visually when you choose that instead of fidelity. One of the first things I did was disable trophy video clips for this game because after earning 7 trophies the clips were taking up over 300 MB of space, that is too much wasted space when the console only has 667 GB of storage available to it at this time. As long as my console doesn't randomly brick I am excited for the future of the PS5!

[ZitMeatloaf]

I recently earned a couple of platinums in quick succession. Look at me go!

 

 #64 - Queen's Quest 3: The End of Dawn

"Platinum"

 

The same 'ol Artifex Mundi formula: find some hidden objects, solve some easy puzzles, don't use any hints, and don't skip any minigames, and bam, platinum trophy. You don't even need to play on the "hardest" difficulty or play the extended bonus material if you'd rather not. I kind of like hidden object games, but this is probably my last one for quite a while.

 

Story wise, the writing here is quite fantastic, the voice acting will really impress.... sorry, I know none of you are falling for this anyway. The story could be a fantastic continuation of Queen's Quest 1 and 2, but I wouldn't know because I never played them. So why play this game? The letter Q, my friends, the letter Q. It was one of the few remaining letters I needed to complete an A-Z platinum collection. There isn't exactly a wide variety of Q games to choose from, so when I saw this on sale for two bucks and change, I decided to just buy it and knock the letter off my list (it was the cheapest of all the Queen's Quest games). Three letters to go...

 

 #65 - Monster Jam: Steel Titans

"Steel Titan"

 

A rather pleasant surprise with this game. It was added to PS Now so I gave it a shot, had a decent enough time with it and got a platinum trophy to boot. It's a game I would never have purchased or considered playing if it wasn't available on PS Now, but with the option of playing it for no additional money, I got some enjoyment from the game. I always loved catching the occasional monster truck special on TV as a kid, but never got to attend any shows in person and honestly had forgotten all about monster trucks since then. So this game provided a bit of kid-era nostalgic fun for me.

Friday the 13th: The game

 Killer Franchise

 

My 63rd platinum trophy is Friday the 13th: The Game (EU).  After spending over 8 months getting the platinum trophy on the NA version, luck shined on me as I stumbled upon a player looking to boost some trophies, and he let me trigger 43 out of the 51 trophies in a single evening.  (Can't seem to get the @ to work, but I'd like to thank @layaway_virgin!)  For those who don't know, once one stack is complete, if the second (or third) stack is played in the same account, only one instance of a requirement for a trophy is needed to pop all related trophies.  So I only need one kill as Jason to pop all the kill trophies, one match to pop all of the match trophies, etc.  Watching the near constant string of virtual pings was the most fun I've had trophy hunting.  Just a day later, I managed to connect with people doing the kill all 7 + Tommy trophy, and then the next day I killed Jason, and that was that.  Three days versus 8 months.  Good stuff.

Platinum #147

Drawngeon: Dungeons Of Ink And Paper

 

I stumbled across this game in the PS Store in my recent trophy whoring endeavors.  While these dungeon crawlers are not my cop o' tea I can definitely appreciate the hand drawn graphics.  Also I'm pretty sure one of the trophies is glitched (in a good way).  Either that or that the trophy description isn't clear enough for me to understand.

 #222 Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet

 

 

 

 

Trophy Hunter

 

 

Enjoyment: 9/10

Difficulty: 5/10

 

 

I've enjoyed this one more than HF, HR and Lost Song. The gameplay was much better and thankfully the grind much less because of the easy leveling from multiplayer. The plat is easy but the 100% can be troublesome because of two bosses you need to defeat on the highest difficulty

 

 

 

 #223 DmC Devil May Cry: Definitive Edition

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Enjoyment: 6/10

Difficulty: 4/10

 

 

If this game wasn't a DmC, i would give it more credit. BUT, it says DmC so i can't help it. Vergil, what have they done to you...

 

 

 #224 Tales of Xillia 2

 

 

 

 

Lord of Xillia 2

 

 

Enjoyment: 9/10

Difficulty: 3/10

 

 

Despite the lazy design and the same dungeons from the first game, i found X2 much better than the first one. The story was more interesting, the MC was an upgrade compared to Jude, plus the addition of Gaius-Muzet gave some funny skits. Also the bad ending was totally badass, i don't recall seeing anything like this in a jrpg before

[StraightVege]

 

The Penitent One

  #243 - Blasphemous (21st Fastest Achiever,  2 days & 11 hours)

 

After recently finishing the phenomenal Hollow Knight—a game that was clearly influential on Blasphemous in some ways, incidentally—this (very) dark fantasy Metroidvania had a tough act to follow, but it more than held its own! Souls-like elements, weighty hack 'n' slash combat, harrowing platforming, and grimly religious Spanish folklore have been skillfully woven into an exceptionally satisfying action title. It's also one of the most grotesque games I've ever experienced, in a good way.

 

In the bleak land of Cvstodia, the people worship a cataclysmic, divine event, known as "The Grievous Miracle," which appears to inflict nothing more than endless suffering and despair of every kind imaginable. It falls to The Penitent One (the masochistic, silent protagonist) to usher in a new age, by embarking on a bloody rampage throughout an expansive, non-linear world. It's one hell of a gloomy, fatalistic place, too, where guilt and self-flagellation are considered virtuous. The disturbing setting and twisted characters here make the melancholy Souls universe seem tame by comparison. It's a societal norm to literally pray for divine punishment, and they receive it—there's certainly some cosmic horror aspects to the story.

 

A truly outstanding original soundtrack by Carlos Viola really emphasizes the utterly hopeless atmosphere during your travels. Some of these, like "Entregarás Tu Rostro a La Señora," have been stuck in my head for days now. His work is very Diablo-esque, and brought back some old memories of hanging out in Tristram for me—love it! I'm also fond of the main character's striking design; some people find his appearance goofy, but the armor is based on real life attire, and I think he looks fantastic in silhouette. Many of his movements and poses are almost ninja-like. 

 

During your exploration, you'll discover countless relics, which can be equipped on the fly to add new abilities, alter Penitent One's movement properties, or combat prowess. It's a deep, versatile system, but it gets cumbersome to frequently swap out artifacts via the clumsy and cluttered menus. I wish they had just let you equip more of them at once, rather than limiting the slots so heavily. Sometimes, developers go a bit too far in the name of balance, but I do think it's better than Hollow Knight's charm system overall. A more convenient way of changing them, such as a shortcut menu or hotkeys, would have remedied this problem.

 

The fighting is unusually complex for the genre, featuring a parry/counter mechanic, charge strikes, I-frame dodging, spellcasting, and a projectile option. This carnage is portrayed with smooth, intricate animations, as well, so it looks and feels wonderfully violent. Stylistically, it's reminiscent of Slain: Back From Hell's combat, but superior in every way. More enemy variety would have been nice, however, and the bosses could have used some additional balancing. One human boss around the middle of the game is inappropriately more difficult than all the others, and will end up being an awkward sticking point for most players. I hate to think about how many people may have quit there, and missed out on the rest of an otherwise great game. Beyond that, Blasphemous is a pretty fair challenge, even though I despise the baddies that snipe you in the middle of a jump.

 

I did notice several minor bugs, but this was a polished, rock-solid experience as a whole. I wouldn't hesitate to say that Blasphemous succeeds as a Souls-like in ways which many 3D efforts with bigger budgets didn't (craftsmanship beats flash every time), and it also far surpasses other indie stuff like Salt and Sanctuary. If you're not easily depressed, then this is a must-play for Metroidvania lovers and Souls fanatics alike. I will definitely be delving into the unique new game plus soon; it's accompanied by awesome free DLC, that adds new NPCs and bosses.

 #433 & #434 - Distraint: Deluxe Edition (Vita & PS4)

 

 

This was right up my street. A 2D side scrolling point & click horror game with disturbing visuals and an unsettling story.

 

The main character is a young man named Mr Price who works for a repossession firm and dreams of one day making partner at this firm which naturally results in him having to make some rather difficult decisions.

 

The game's story really is great and without giving anything away it made me stop and think when the credits were running. It's great stuff.

Platinum #218

Bugsnax [PS5]

Bugsnax Master
Obtain all of the trophies.

 

I have mixed feelings. I went in indifferent not really knowing what to expect, I like elements of it, but some of the tools are just so janky to control and use that it makes parts of it really frustrating for no real reason. Trying to get Scoop or that fire poof thing were way harder than they needed to be due to inconsistency in how the tools work and the wonky aiming.

But the story was pretty interesting and silly, I liked the characters. Not a ton of depth, but they're amusing to interact with. Music was alright. I didn't like the DualSense use in this at all, ended up disabling all of it [other than speaker use]. The vibration just didn't feel good while moving, just felt like you'd expect any game with rumble in it rather than something like Astro which was amazing. It just didn't work well at all in this, probably in large part because the game is cross gen so they didn't put in that much effort. Or Japan Studio is just genius and will probably be the best team to ever make anything on this controller.

 

Figuring out most of the bugsnax and how to catch them was fun, but like I mentioned earlier some were just annoying. I don't have a whole lot else to say about it. Graphics are decent, not great. Performance was mostly fine, but I did get stuck in place a few times. Luckily it has a restart from checkpoint in the menu and saves fairly often when making progress. And it did crash once.

 

I'm glad I didn't pay money specifically for it, but I'm also glad I played it. The ending was interesting, I'm be down for a sequel if they can polish things a bit more and expand on the ideas.

The only twin-stick shooter I've really played in recent years has been Dead Ops Arcade in COD Black Ops 3, and seeing this mode return to Cold War gave me an itch to play one before I'm able to get the new COD. Riddled Corpses EX was a super fun game to meet that need, and I'm glad to support indie developers -- especially when they make great games like this. The variety, flow, and stage progression feel well-balanced. There's just enough challenge that you'll need to upgrade your characters and gain some skill to complete the Story, as there are bound to be some first encounters that trip you up. You also get some relief in that once you've bought your upgrades, surplus gold can be spent on extra lives and power-ups for a boost on any troubling stages. After this, Arcade mode (a 20-30 minute one-shot playthrough of all the stages) is a fitting trial for the Platinum.

Lol. Trawling my purchased library after Riddled Corpses I found Red Death and figured I'd keep rolling with the arcades / bullet hells. Turns out this game is a trophy cupcake taking <30 minutes. The Playstation Store trailer and cover art gave me slightly higher expectations when I picked this up a while back. It's very short, albeit decent.

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided

 

Positives:

• Stealth gameplay is king.
• Level design blows most open-world games out of the water, except Dishonored series (maybe).
• Atmospheric cyberpunk world.
• Micro-Assembler aug makes stuff easier.
• My first ultra rare platinum trophy.

 

Negatives:

• Breach Mode can be boring, but it is not difficult at all, and can be finished in around 10 hours.
• Story is serviceable.
