#643 NORN9: Last Era

try dungeon travellers 2 as you are at 40% already

[Hoopdahoopla]

#59 - God of War - Chains of Olympus

#60 - God of War - Ghost of Sparta

 

That' it, with GoW Collection Volume II done that's all 6 GoW games on the PS3 platinumed. That's a big blow to the backlog, it was good to get some hack and slash action after a bunch of RPG games. 

 

Not sure which of my backlog to start on now.

Cyperpunk 2077 platinum 78, completed 95% on a ps4 era 2013 edition. ? Honestly one of the best games to play on ps5, old gen isn't worth it and I'm gutted I didn't wait to experience it fully. I'll definitely replay it when the ps5 version gets released.

San Andreas is a game from 2004, you can't expect it to look any good or play well when compared to nowadays PS5 era games with 4K graphics, 60 FPS capability that basically hold your hand the entire way. Definitely looking forward to San Andreas on the PS4 as it's the last game in the GTA franchise that I'm going to bother finishing.

 

Definitely should of played GTA III and Vice City first. Every game after III was a huge step in gameplay mechanics.

 

i know about that, i never mention that GTA San Andreas to looks or run bad because i got used to modern games though, my point is that i did First play GTA 3 then Vice City back on the ps2 days, but i never bother finishing them especially GTA 3, but i spent more time on San Andreas.. well mostly on the remastered port on ps3, let alone the checkpoint system but the ability to swim instead of instantly dying when touch the water, having the freedom of aiming the weapons, climb any reachable ledge or wall gave more strategy ways etc.

so after getting used to those and return back to beat 3 and VC you'll find the auto lock on to be annoying, other than that the clunky flying mechanics is remain still bad in the series regardless.

 

but i have to say that there's something that GTA 3 did way much better than the other games in the series, ideas that is been abandoned and that's the freedom to chose how to finish the missions, outside of Vice City and especially GTA 3 the newer games ask you to kill a said target the way they wanted or should i say in a bit " scripted " ways but in GTA 3 if you learn they way how the target can react to flee from you you can set everything ready as you desire before taking them down as you can just block the target's escape route with cars, set bombs on the escaped cars etc.

The N. Vincible Crash Bandicoot! / Crash Bandicoot: Warped

 

and i done with this trilogy, crash bandicoot warped will remain still my favorite one of the three since the ps1 days even though it's a lot shorter than the other two... or maybe i'm just good at it???

 

i hate how they messed up one of the most enjoyable levels in the game and that's Coco's Jet ski levels, i remember me and my brother and some friends used to gather and try to beat each other's record time on those levels, but now they still find some ways to screws up the controls somehow in this remake, made me just wanted to get the freaking gold relic and be done with and dear god you have no idea how many tries i spend just to get the gold relic on the level Hot Coco, let alone the stupid controls, i got frustrated just to drive toward the golden clock to start the trial, now coco takes her sweet time to take a turn, it's like in a driving game you kept holding the drift button while driving in an entire racing course.

 

crash bandicoot warped is the easiest to plat and 100% the only hard part to fully finish is hot coco's level especially the gold relic time trail, there was a glitch to get a platinum relic on that level but it seems to be patched out as i wasted around 15 life trying to attempt it but no luck.

 

after i finally done with this trilogy now i really understand why Crash Bandicoot 4 It's About Time didn't sold very well, you can argue that it's because it's a one game sold at full price of $60 where this collection is sold around $40 to $30 for three games all been remaked, but i think it's truly something to do with the difficulty spikes of this collection that many people have played this trilogy first on it and gave up.. even old returning gamers like i do noticed that this trilogy is a lot harder than the originals thanks to the messed up input delay and the addition of this stupid pill shaped collision on platforming that ruined everything.

 

now me myself kinda not in the mode of playing Crash Bandicoot 4 ( which i heard is far much harder than any game in this collection by the way ) not saying it's a bad game but i'll just gonna take a break of the crash bandicoot craze for now, and maybe i'll play 4 in the near future maybe if we're luck we will get it as a PS Plus game, who knows.

The Walking Dead (Vita)

Enjoyment: 10/10

Difficulty: 1/10

Time: 10hrs

 

This is one of those game that never gets old, even with multiple playthroughs. I have now played this game on the PS3, PS4, and now the PS Vita. I'd honestly consider doing the Walking Dead collection (all TWD games) that they released on the PS4. It's that damn good. It really deserved winning Game of the Year in 2012. Characters and story are amazing here. It's simply one of those games that everyone should play.

platinum 90: outlast 2

difficulty: 7/10 ( only in chapter 1 and 2 ) after that it drops to 3/10

time: unknown

fun: first playtrough 8/10, after going for the plat 2/10

 

seriously fuck this game, a year ago I got error application while holding the baby in the last section, and I tried again and the power went off in chapter 5 because off electricity maintenance.

a year later I was determined to get it after beating outlast 1 and starting this, I found myself lost because I forgot everything in the game, I had to play like 5 nightmare playtroughs again and practice some parts more than once which was very annoying, chapter 1 and 2 are really luck based, and that slut marta is very annoying, nick and laird are on another level, the bullshit level is insane, one arrow and you are back to square one.

luckily after coming back this year and practicing, I did it on my 5th try, I only died in chapter 1.

after finishing chapter 1 and 2 I did the rest of the game in my first try.

I hope the devs go to hell for not making unskippable cutscenes, chapter one especially is aids from just the cutscenes.

Astro's playroom platinum 79, super fun little game ?

[Trumpet_Boi_208]

After almost 4 years of on and off hunting, I earned the elusive platinum for Overwatch.

 

Fun: 8/10

This was a very enjoyable hero shooter, hindered only by unbalanced queue times between the three roles.

 

Difficulty: 7-7.5/10

This was a tough, but mostly fun platinum. The general trophies are no problem at all. It’s the hero trophies that make this platinum elusive. There are two types of hero trophies in Overwatch. I will refer to them as sprays since unlocking those trophies award you with an in-game spray.

 

The first type, which I will refer to as cute sprays, involve performing some sort of big play with each hero’s ultimate ability, with a few exceptions. These generally aren’t too difficult to do, with a few personal exceptions. Those included Genji, which took me roughly 13 hours to get, and Junkrat, which took me roughly 20 hours of play. 
 

The second type, which I will refer to as pixel sprays, require you to perform very specific plays involving hero abilities. Some are easy and simple, such as blocking damage with Mei’s ice wall, or absorbing 500 armor damage with Torbjorn without dying. Some are more tricky, such as knocking an enemy into a steel trap using Junkrat’s concussion mines, or getting 2 killing blows with 1 use of Soldier: 76’s helix rockets. Then there are some that make you go, “WTF,” such as getting three killing blows while wall riding without dying as Lucio, killing 4 enemies with Zenyatta’s orb of discord in 6 seconds, or scoring 3 solo kills using a single clip of Reaper’s shotguns. These involve a lot of luck and skill in the field of opportunism. You fail to notice the opportunity through death or doubt, and that chance is down the drain. Hope you like luck based trophies.

 

Overall: A fun game, although I advise against hunting the platinum completely legitimately, like I did, unless you are incredibly patient with your team and your luck.

#35 Detroit: Become Human

 

DETROIT MASTER

15.88% Rare

 

 

Wow, I was really impressed by this game. I haven't seen anything of it before, yet heard the name often. The visuals are down right gorgeous, the freedom in choices is superb and the plot exciting. If you want to plat this game you have to do almost two full playthroughs in certain ways to get all trophies done. This can be kind of a letdown in story driven games like this because you have to do certain actions to not have to do three playthroughs. I'd rather prefer to do a free playthrough and then cleanup via chapter select or something. If you don't mind playing this three times.. then maybe consider doing a blind playthrough first.

Platinum #566:

 

 

Difficulty: 3/10

Playtime: 5-7 hours

Enjoyment: 7.5/10

 

Who is driving the car? A cat is driving the car! How could this be?!? (Probably) Sponsored by MeowMix, Meow Motors is exactly what it says on the tin: cute kittens cavorting in karts. A Mario Kart killer it is not, but as far as relatively shameless clones go, this one has got it most of it down, and with a truly impressive level of polish for a less than AAA game. A highly stable 60FPS on a vanilla PS4 for a game with this level of visual acuity and complexity shouldn't be possible, but the wizards of ArtVostok found a way.

 

The game plays well enough, even if a Mario Kart stalwart like myself will never be able to shut off subconscious comparison mode. The weapons are somewhat hit and miss, and what with the lack of randomness as it applies to picking them up, you're liable to find your fave and stick to it before long. The rubber banding is strong with this one, as your opponents will always be close behind you regardless of difficulty setting... it goes both ways though, so it's relatively pain-free to get back in the game should you fall behind. The drifting system is bafflingly designed and never becomes a reliable tool for your arsenal... and that's way before you have to learn to "master it" for the game's only hard trophy!

 

I wish they'd added some more flavour to the game; apart from a prerequisite story bookending the proceedings, any and all character exuded by our cast of cuddly felines is done through animation alone. Some voice acting and more story segments would've worked a treat. As things stand, the experience is a little dry... kinda like a box of cat food from the Clinton administration. So much wasted potential into adding some stuff to these bundles of fluff. The game also drags on a bit with some unnecessary reuse of levels... less is more and all that jazz.

 

Even with its shortcomings, Meow Motors comes across as much more of a work of passion than all too much of its easy platinum ilk, and its aforementioned technical excellence is not to be missed. The finely laid-out (if not copyedited) trophy list just sweetens the deal, vexating drifting mechanics or no. Yep, this truly is the cat's pajamas! I ain't kitten you! Buy it meow! Cat references!

#142 - Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception Remastered

 

Platinum
Earn all Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception™ Remastered Trophies

 

My first Platinum since August. It has been a real slow year for platinum trophies. I just wanted to finish this series, again. I've already platted all 3 Uncharted games on PS3, and now I'm done with the remastered versions as well. Still pretty good games, but this third one is my least favorite. For some reason the combat feels bit off in this one. Not sure what's the problem. Maybe it's just in my head.

 

Not sure what to play next...

[ArmoredSnowman]

Been a while since my last post on here, but I have 4 new plats. Dunno how much I'm gonna write about them, but here goes.

 

Plat #45: ASTRO’s PLAYROOM

 

What can I say, this was a really neat and awesome experience. It definitely showed what the PS5's controller + its haptic feedback are capable of. The fast loading, and the speedrun segments were mesmerizing, and the easter egg appearances of other Sony franchises was just nostalgic! Definitely worth playing, but the pinball segment should've never been in the game (imo). Those levels just sucked the joy right out of me, and the speed runs can be tricky at first, but shortcuts help out so much! Definitely make this the first PS5 game you play!!

 

Plat #46: My Name is Mayo 2

 

It's the sequel to Mayo. 

 

Plat #47: Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered

 

It was awesome replaying this game, with it being years since I platted + 100%'d the PS4 version! So much fun, but yes, it can feel long at times. I still hate Screwball, and didn't care for the Harry labs. Takes some getting used to Pete's new face. That said, while I beat the story, and got through most of DLC 1's story, I used the save transfer to autopop the rest of the trophies -- as I really didn't want to tackle the crime districts or screwball DLC challenges. 

 

Plat #48: Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales

 

Well, damn, this was a fun ride! Yes, the story is very short (about 3-5 hrs), but Miles is so fun to play with, and the venom attacks are awesome. Tip: Use Remote Mine + Gravity Well together for one hit kills (thank me later  ) Graphics were top-notch, as were the voice actors. Ending was a bit eh, but damn, it was fun doing both playthroughs! What he lacks in gadgets, he makes up in his "teenage swagger". I don't expect there to be DLC for the game, but I really hope Insomniac will include Silk in their future games! Also, of note, nothing in the game felt taxing. You could pretty much teleport to every area thru fast travel, and only Pete's challenges + the post cards offered much trouble (though the boss fight at the end can be a struggle.) Loved going all stealth through the different bases, and furthermore, Insomniac looked back at the flaws in OG Spidey, and made them better. No more labs, several incredible suits, and no round-based bases. Definite, definitely, DEFINITELY, play this game!

 

With that, I will definitely be going for Miles PS4 plat later on, but I will be doing Cold War/Sackboy PS5 in the mean time.

Good game with a really compelling story which includes time travel, multiverses and so on. Voice acting is superb and the general art style is okay. I would recommend that game to anyone who is into these kinda stories. The platinum however can be a little dragging, since besides another (interesting) ending there is not much to it. It's only walking around in a really slow tempo.

Btw. this games borrow heavily from the movie Triangle.

Final Fantasy VII Remake

#200

Master of Fate

Time to Platinum:  78hours 34minutes | Difficulty: 5/10 | Enjoyment: 10/10

 

Big milestone done and it had to be a game I've been looking forward to for over a decade. Ever since the teaser of the PS3 demo I've wanted a remake of this game and in 2015 when I first saw that trailer. I couldn't believe it. I had goosebumps and was so happy that it was announced. Flashforward 4 years and it was a little worrying not knowing because not much information had still been handed out but as soon as the devs finished working on Kingdom Hearts 3 it was FF7 news constantly and boy it was such a good time. Getting closer and closer to that release date and the seeing more and more of the game got me hyped. I never really get hyped about games anymore but when it comes to a remake of one of the first games I ever played I can't help but remember playing it and thinking how this scene and that scene will be played out. If you're wondering why I don't get hyped about release date games anymore. I only need to say the title Cyberpunk and that's exactly why. I played this back on release date and loved it that much I decided I would make it a milestone. #200 sounded perfect for it since that's how many years I've waited since the announcement.  

 

I wrote quite a bit in here. Kept it as spoiler free as possible and tagged a couple of soundtracks into it. A milestone I really enjoyed deserves as much. Just didn't want to clog up the page with text but yeah. If you're interested in my thoughts. Give it a read.

Spoiler

 

Overview

Not much has changed since the original in terms of story in all honestly. You play as Cloud Strife. Former SOLDIER now mercenary invading a reactor ran by the villanous company Shinra Inc who has been sucking up the planets energy to use and make profit off of. Your job now is to blow up the reactor and deal with the fallout from the job. What happens afterwards is a series of events that shape the entire planet. The game follows the same story from the 1997 original except this time with current technology can be expanded on big time with stuff they couldn't add in to the original or ideas they thought of after completing the game all them years ago. The only thing that was pretty much different was the final two chapters. Not so much 17. That followed the same principle up until you get to the Presidents room. Then it goes a little weird. Typical Nomura not so subtle Nomura and his obssesion with time lines and fate. It's hard to say what's going to be different in the follow up games because it leaves not answering questions that people now have. For the story, if you've played the original you know the next events and I'm sure they will play out like that but there seems to be a big change in some aspects. I can't say what because no one likes spoilers to games they haven't played but I just hope they don't change too much. This remake follows them up to the point that they leave Midgar and if you're familiar with the game is actually a tiny piece of the game so going forward. It's kinda hard to imagine how many parts there will be if they keep adding to and fleshing out what they have of the story already. It's exciting.

Gameplay

Gameplay wise the game balanced the new style of FF games and the classic ATB system if I'm being honest. This was one of my biggest worries when it came to this game was would it just be another  smashing Final Fantasy XV but honestly it's not. I mean for the most part you are pressing  but that's to just build up your ATB gauge. Which then you can use magic or abilities that you have set. It slows down game to an almost stand still so it's a lot more tactical with it's gameplay so if you do go into this game expecting to just press  and get away with it. Think again. Especially on hard. The game is pretty unforgiving if you don't have the right set up and constantly bombard your magic abilities. This is mainly due to enemies hitting so much harder. It takes longer to stagger, you can't use items in battle so you rely on magic and abilities which drain your MP. You only get MP back through smashing crates because you can't use items and when you sit at the rest bench all that does on hard is give you full HP. So, what this means it you can't just go into a battle on hard and expect to just spam  and magic and be done with it. You will have no chance. The first part of this remake I will say is very linear. There are some open parts to it where you can do sidequests for people and travel around that hub as freely as you like but for the most part it's very linear. Almost, FF13 linear but not as much. It's not necessarily a bad thing. It makes more sense to do it in this part since you spend a lot of time going down alleyways and other places and it's very slum like with debris everywhere so it makes more sense to do it this part than future parts. Overall I've seen people complain that they can just button mash but they literally aren't playing it right and I can guarantee battles took waaaaaaay longer than they were expecting. It does take some planning to build the stagger bar to even damage some enemies. The second part of the remake though is meant to be much more open since now we're at the world map. So that's promising to the people who don't like the linearity of this part of the remake.

 

Characters

Hoo-boy there's a lot of characters in this game and honestly. They're pretty much how you imagine them if you've played the original. I wasn't sure of the voice actor changes from the Advent Children movie BUT the more you get deeper into the game. They don't all sound that different in all honesty. They probably fit the part more than you think. The voice acting can get a little cringey at some points but that's mainly due to the lines. I guess the only noticable parts of the game is that Barrett isn't so Vulgar like he is in the original. I think every sentence he swore in it but not this one. He's still his overreacting, overhyper self but it's done very well. The voice acting gives a lot more substance to characters who literally had no voices the first time. They make you feel for them a lot more than you probably do in the original. Like Aertih in the original probably came across as bland and boring but in the remake she's flirty, witty and a much more memorable character than what she was. Same can be said for Cloud. If this is your first time playing the remake and see Cloud. You probably think he's moody, cocky and arrogant throughout the whole of the game BUT in the original, after leaving Midgar he's actually really outgoing and comes out of his shell a lot more as he starts to trust everyone. I'm not going to dive into each character as I know them all anyway but parts of them haven't been shown yet and some characters havent even been introduced yet. One of my favourite characters in Red XIII makes an appearance near the end of this game and unfortunately is only classed as quest character but taking control of him in the sequel is going to be a ton of fun. He has banter with Barrett already and I can honestly see it getting better as the game moves forward so I'm looking forward to that. The sub characters like the badguys are all interesting to. Like all of the Shinra company and a certain bad guy. Which in the original wasn't even shown until AFTER Midgar so the fact they threw him in from the start was surprising but it worked really well honestly.

Soundtrack

Okay, so one of the best things about the original game was it's soundtrack and I can say that in this game they did that soundtrack justice and then some. Take your classic theme and then twist it a number of times and add it into different scenarios. Take your boss battle theme and twist it so many ways over the game. See the pattern? They took these classic soundtracks and twisted them so many different ways to fit the situation and it was perfectly done. Some of the new soundtracks are so well done. I literally would just sit in the fights for a while listening to them because of how well they just worked. Easily one of my favourite soundtracks this and probably in all gaming honestly. Here is a couple if you're interested. They really do some epic OST at Square enix and they really should have been in the running for some of the awards this year as some of the soundtrack is an absolute pleasure to listen to. Those two are some of my favourites.

Wait until minute 4 of this one you OG fans.  

 

Trophies

There are trophies for doing basically everything in this game and that's not entirely a bad thing or something that makes you go out of your way to complete it. I can't remember if Hard is unlocked from the get go but if it is. Don't attempt it, unless you're ridiculously good with the dodging and staggering mechanics as the game is unforgiving. Really unforgiving at a point if you're not levelled up, levelled your materia and have the wrong set up. It can, some bosses just don't give you time so you need to always be on your toes. There's trophies for every chapter which is a nice chunk. Sidequests. Which aren't that many to be honest and they are worth doing for equipment and materia that you need. So it's not just tacked on stuff for the sake of it. The rewards are actually rewards that you will need, new weapons etc. There are collectibles like music discs and I don't think they are missable because you can go back to any chapter you want after you complete the game for the first time. There's a few misc ones to pick up as you go through the chapters but if you're exploring everything should be found no problem at all. You have to learn all weapon abilities. Beat the secret boss, get certain stuff for characters. So there's a nice variety in there and the game does make you 100% it essentially. The only thing I can think of they didn't add in was scanning everyone. Which is fine by me because that would be a pain in the ass. Don't let the rarity of this game fool you because it's uncommon. I think a lot of people know what most materia did in the old game so it kind plays the same in this one with the exception of new ones being used. So it wasn't like you needed a master class in the set up. Pretty simple really but Hard can be challenging to some people.

 

Conclusion

This for me is easily my Game of the year. It just hit differently to everything else I have played this year. Even though I played it primarily at a time that wasn't the best. The start of quarantine, a few issues with friends we couldn't work out and I really enjoyed it then and I certainly probably enjoyed it even more now that I'm in a better mindset with everything and I feel like Hard is probably the best way to experience this game. It really is a trip down memory lane and then expanded on. I've never had a game that hits nostalgia but at the exact same time has me asking what happens next. In a good way of course. The game is really well done. I think the only downside to this is that we only get the midgar portion. We don't get anything else. Cid, Yuffie, Vince, Cait. They are all come at different times and I can only imagine how gorgeous Gaia is going to be and how many parts it's going to take to cover the whole of the game. I highly suggest picking up this game. New or Old fans of the series. If you can get your hands on the original from the store and playthrough it. Imagine you're in 1997. It was peak graphics and a game that kicked started narrative style games in the gaming world. Not the first but probably one of the first that started the movement. Some of your favourite games today might not of even been without inspiration from the original so try and play some of it at least. There's a lot to look forward to with this game if they decide to expand on everything they worked on. It could potentially be one of the greatest games to date. I just hope they don't rush it for the sake of it and cut or change too much of it. It's promising so far. The game is a nice balance of everything trophy wise and gameplay wise. Some parts are a little slow but once you get moving and changing your equipment and learning more of the world you will enjoy it a lot more.
