  #57: Cosmic Star Heroine - Heroine

 

 

I bought this game like 3 years ago, but sat on it until a couple weeks ago since it got buried in my backlog. And I wish I played it sooner, because it was a very fun little RPG. I love the game's aesthetic: it's got a cool 80's sci-fi feel, plus 16-bit-inspired graphics and an amazing soundtrack. I liked the combat too; it adds some strategy to the usual turn-based encounters by only letting you use most abilities once before you have to spend a turn recharging them (some can only be used once per battle regardless). I also appreciated having status-inflicting moves that avoided the "completely useless on bosses" trope. However, the game's very short for an RPG - my "right before the final boss" save file clocked in at just a shade above 13 hours, and I did everything else required for the platinum by then. That may be a pro or a con depending on your preferences, but I personally found it refreshing to play an RPG that wasn't a huge 100-hour commitment.

 

The plat was very easy: the game itself isn't too hard, and you basically just do everything and watch out for a couple small things early on that you could easily miss. The guide on here did a very good job of listing all the trophies in the order that you can get them, as well as what missables to watch out for, so if you check it out every now and then you should be good. You also get four save slots and the ability to instantly save anywhere, which should help. Aside from one trophy that requires you to beat the very first enemy in the game on the hardest difficulty, nothing is difficulty-specific. My biggest gripe with the trophies is that some of them related to beating certain bosses refused to pop on the first attempt - I had to kill the final boss 3 times before I got credit for beating the game. Repeat attempts took barely any time on the lowest difficulty, but still. Make a save anytime you're about to fight a boss and you should be good. Still highly recommend the game, overall.

 

Difficulty: 2.5/10

Enjoyment: 8/10

Plat Time: 13-15 hours

after about a 5month break away from trophy hunting I went and did my 1st Ps5 platinum, albeit some of the trophies kinda auto popped along the way but thats besides the point
 

Platinum #307

 

 

[DesmaBR]

Had these games basically done while I was working towards getting my 7000th milestone.

And now that I'm done, decided to pop 'em up.

 

Platinum #126

 

(The Sims 4)

 

 Ultimate Sim Guru
Earn all trophies.

 

Yeeeah, playing The Sims with a controller is not great.

Definitely made use of the gallery, else I'd definitely wouldn't do this.

 

For those who'd want to try this, do play it on the PS5.

It runs the game pretty well, even with a full family.

Was very confused when the guide said to "Delete members of the party to make it run faster", but I think I get it now.

 

Platinum #127

 

 

 OCD
Get all other trophies in the game

 

 

I do like the new voice acting, the voices are perfect for the characters.

But maaan, maybe it would've been funnier back in the 90's, but the humor is pretty dated.

 

Platinum #128

 

 

 My Name is Mayo - The Second!
High Cholesterol, High Reward.

 

It's what I say.

Trophy hunt, and soon enough you'll be touching the mayo.

Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time

#25

 

Where do I start with this one? I guess by saying that the game is absolutely superb. The graphics are immense and a real treat following on from the Trilogy. The story is fun with some great humour thrown in there. Crash moves great - very fluidly and easy to control. It will take a bit of practice if you're used to the N.Sane Trilogy controls but he handles well once you get the hang of it.

After you've completed the main storyline there is plenty to keep you entertained. There are 21 "Flashback" levels which focus primarily on classic Crash Bandicoot platforming. These are really fun and more challenging as they go on. There are also four hidden coloured gems to collect which are tricky to find but even with a guide one of them is incredibly frustrating to obtain. Once you've collected the gems though they unlock new paths in various other levels so there's a big incentive to get them.

There are also mirror copies of each and every level, only with a filter added to make them different. For example there's an underwater filter that makes you move slower. That sort of thing. They are nice to try out, but once is enough.

After doing all of the above - this is where the game turns sour. Sinister even. The requirements for completion are out-of-this-world hard! One could say "don't bother with them" but the flip side to that is Crash Bandicoot has always been about incorporating the collectibles in your gameplay. You've never just picked it up, completed the story and then just put it away to gather dust. Also, when you're spending £50+ on a game you want to get the most out of it. Then there's the OCD completion side of it for some of us... especially when you've platted the original 3 and want to add this to your collection.

So on to the trophy requirements. The developers have clearly played on the fact that Crash has always been difficult but they've gone overboard here. There are 43 levels altogether. 5 are boss (with inverted modes) and there are 38 standard levels. The levels are looong. For each and every one of the 38 levels you must:

• Complete the level (of course).
• Collect six gems (obtainable through finishing the level with different permutations - 3 deaths or less for example).
• Complete the level while not losing a single life AND collecting all of the boxes.
• Speedrun the level with a "platinum" time.
• Complete the inverted level.
• Complete the inverted level with 6 gems.

It is bloated and stopped being fun after the flashback levels.

It took me over three months and 233 (YES THAT'S RIGHT!) hours to platinum. I'm not the best and not the worst of gamers - but this was just painful.

I could go on and on but I'll leave you with a rating of 9/10 for when just completing the storyline but an overall:

5/10

PLATINUM 242 : DARK SOULS II (PS3)

 

 

What a journey that was!!

 

First I need to explain what made me go back to the PS3! 

 

As I'm a major Soul's fan I recently decided to revisit all the games from the series Bloodborne included. Furthermore, as excitement was overflowing I decided to check my list and noticed that the only game left for full platinum was the base version of this entry which was in my backlog since 2015. 

 

As I recently platinumed the Remastered version of the original I finally gave the original sequel a go and had a blast. The amount of love I have for this series can't be measured through words alone and I do hope From will continue to Wow us this generation.

 

 

For now let's all praise the sun TOGETHER!!

#406 - Deadly Premonition: The Director's Cut

This is... a pretty awful game. It has a good atmosphere, a fun cast, an engaging (albeit extremely predictable) story... but the gameplay really drags the overall experience down. The combat sections are a slog, offering no plot so it just feels like a waste of time, although they become a little more bearable once you unlock infinite ammo weapons like the machine gun. The regular life simulator sections where you have to manage your time, hunger and sleep properly are a slog too due to the random weather and needing certain weather for certain events to trigger. There was a lot of sleeping and eating to refill hunger while I waited for the game to finally start raining, ruining my clothes in the process. I would've enjoyed this much more without the hunger meter or the time limits constantly intruding the gameplay.

 

I did have one major aspect of this game spoiled to me years ago, but other than that I was unspoiled on it, and yet... I ended up predicting basically everything that happened apart from two twists of the story. It isn't very subtle with its foreshadowing at all, although maybe it wasn't trying to be? The biggest set of spoilers came just by looking at the trading card menu. I didn't read any of the descriptions, but just seeing how they were arranged was a big clue as to what's going on, which is kinda dumb imo, collectibles shouldn't spoil the plot before it happens lol.

 

Overall this game ended up being acceptable due to its story, despite its awfulness in gameplay, but I'm certainly not craving the Switch-exclusive sequel at all.

Platinum Nr. 13

Playtime total 15h ( 10h for story and everything and 5h for the 10th trial?)

Platinum Trophy

Surprised that this one is an UItra Rare, the game is honestly not that hard to grab the trophies in, especially for a game that's focused on online MP.

Great work, a very impressive platinum to have as I think it's sometimes regarded as the hardest of 2020.  I picked this up in a recent sale and am slowly working my way through just completing the story.  Though I have the platinum's for the N'Sane Trilogy games I don't think I'll have any chance with this.  I think I'm quite near the end of the story and so far I've only managed to do one level where I've collected all the boxes.  Much more difficult than the previous games as you said.

Thank you. I never thought I would get it either. I thought the platinum time trials would be the killer for me and they are indeed the hardest part. But with enough patience it's possible. If you're genuinely interested in platting it I'd say go for it but be prepared to suffer through most of it haha! 233 hours was extreme (most people that manage it do it in around 80-120) but finally achieving it was justification enough for my time spent.

 #481 - Yakuza 5 (PS3)

 

 

Fulfiller of Dreams
All trophies collected

 

Enjoyment: 9/10

Difficulty: 5/10

 

And with that, a tremendous journey comes to a close. It feels so great to obtain another Yakuza platinum and I gotta say, this is my favorite installment in the series so far. The way the developers craft each game is incredibly amazing. Story, gameplay, combat, locales, side content... They always pour so much love and care into the series, and this game is bigger and better than ever in pretty much every department. I'm glad we got Haruka as one of the new playable characters this time, especially considering how much she's involved in the series. I enjoyed her part of the game, be it her road to becoming an idol or the rhythm-oriented gameplay. Akiyama and Saejima (and Kiryu, of course) return from Yakuza 4, and we also have another new playable character called Shinada. Seeing all of their arcs unfold and eventually interconnect was a real treat. And that finale - man, that finale... 

 

Trophy wise, the platinum requires a ton of time, most of which is spent going for 100% in-game completion. All in all, it took me a little less than 200 hours between that, the Ultimate Battles, and the Extra Hard playthrough. So yeah, it was quite the time investment, but it was really enjoyable and I'm very excited to have reached the end goal. 

 

I'm gonna play Yakuza 6 very soon because I gotta admit, I'm still craving some more Yakuza and 6 seems like the perfect amount to have after this one. I look forward to playing another one of Kiryu's installments in this unique series.

Enjoyment: 3/10

Difficulty: 3/10

Time: 10hrs

 

Never play this buggy, untested, horribly written, garbage controlled, hellspawn of a game. My experience was ruined because the game kept crashing and some of the trophies are super buggy. I'd really suggest staying away from this dumpster fire of a game. I was expecting more from this Hitman rip off, but I should've known it was garbage due to this being made by "Maximum Games".

 #57 - Battlefield 4

 

 

Difficulty:  3/10

Enjoyment: 8.5/10

 

This is an awesome game, it looks amazing even on the PS3 version, was really fun going for the platinum after many years of not playing it, didn't have any issues with trophies, since the game has reports of having glitched trophies.

Big thanks to all players who help me out getting that one last online trophy, I couldn't have done it without them!

Next Plat: I'm currently working on Ninja Gaiden 2, just missing one trophy related to team missions. (Wish me luck ?)

Platinum #129

 

 

 All Trophies Obtained
For obtaining all trophies.

 

Glad I've waited on this one, recently they patched Big Bang so that you could grind Tetris pieces on them.

I'd go mad if I had to grind 'em for real lol

 

...

 

Why did I buy this?

I actually remember being really excited for this, since I really liked the first game.

And boy, this sure is the first game again.

They probably just made this one as fast as possible to be the first next gen puzzle game out there.

 

The only real difference between this and the first is the new story mode

Which is kinda trash

The story in the first game wasn't a masterpiece, but it was very cute

It even made me feel a bit emotional at the end

 

This one, though, yeesh.

It's very clear that they're just trying to imitate what the first game did, but not being able to actually pull it off.

Some of the cutscenes were pretty painful to watch lol

Some even made me question "They made the voice actors say that?"

 

Yeah fuck it, I'll whine about the story in a puzzle game made for children.

 

I'll say that the PS5 version is pretty neat, load times are a lot faster than the PS4's.

...

And that's all you really need for a game like this, just lemme turn it on and get me to a game quickly.

 

I'll give credit to the new special attacks animation, they sure look great.
