 Platinum 170: Lego Jurassic World (PS4) 

   

Life Finds A Way - 25,24% (Uncommon)

   

 

 

Fun levels:

None /10

 

The core gameplay consists of scrolling through 200+ characters to select who should I press Circle with. You also have to collect a pile of Amber bricks like you're Johnny Depp. The camera is bad, the controls are bad. The best part was finally finishing it after 4 years.

 

If you like Lego games, you'll probably like this. After finishing this game I realized that I strongly hate them and removed the Skywalker Saga from my wishlist. Looking forward to cleaning up Marvel Super Heroes and the Harry Potter collection in the far away future.

PLATINUM #194 

FAR CRY 4 (PS4)

Master Of Kyrat
Obtain all the Trophies.

 

What can I say, I like Far Cry games and Ubisoft franchises nothing to do there. This one feels a step back from the third game but still, the gameplay is enjoyable and can be enjoyed on a weekend if you like shooter games.

BRAWLHALLA

I took my time with this one..... But because I played like 2 gamers per day haha. Brawlhalla is an entertaining smash-like game there´s nothing much to say about that. The only thing the game is going to ask for you is time.

 #398: Platinum Hero

 

Both Vita and PS4 are done, at least for the NA region. A pretty cool beat em up for an easy platinum experience. Actual learned moves, flashy combat, more selectable characters, a pretty slick art-style, and a cute ending.

 

But it does get pretty samey and repetitive near the end. There are some special moves you can cheese, and the checkpoints are SOMEWHAT fair, so there plat is common for a reason.

Platinum #135 - Detroit: Become human

 

 

Difficulty: 2/10

Enjoyment: 8/10

 

While I was deciding which game to play between Yakuza like a dragon and Bloodborne, I decided to clean something from my backlog, and here we are. Two years later I finally got the platinum!

Game is great but replaying it another time back to back after the first playthrough really bored me, and that's the reason I dropped it a long time ago.

 

I really liked the game, the story is very well written and some of the plot decisions were hard to choose. That would be my main complaint about this game, if you want the platinum you have to act like a jerk and feel bad about yourself. ?.

#1,388 PS4 version of The Giraffe G

[Jounochi]

Been a busy month or so cleaning up some trophies and some lists I was wanting to return to.  Working on Rayman Legends and a Digimon game right now, but considering bringing back FFXV Pocket since that might be a nice relaxing game to complete.  Too hot outside these days to enjoy the weather, so have to grind out some of these games while you can!

Platinum #198 - Crazy Chicken Shooter Bundle (PS5)

 

Picked this game up for $3 and thought I might as well give it a go.  It's a fun little light gun game but is very short and definitely a budget game.  Not a bad pickup for what I bought it for, but I don't think I will be picking any of the other Crazy Chicken games up.  Didn't even know this was part of a series.

 

Difficulty: 2/10

Enjoyment: 4/10

 

_____________

Platinum #199 - Slime Rancher (PS4)

 

This was such a relaxing game to finally pick up and play!  Making a farm and growing it is so nice after a long day at the office, and I would find myself just popping in the disk to put on some music in the background.  The only thing that holds the trophy list down is the time trial mode.  They really could have added more trophies for the base game since there was still a lot to do after I popped the last campaign trophy.

 

Platinum Difficulty: 4/10

Enjoyment: 8/10

 

_____________

Platinum #200 - Beat Saber (PSVR)

 

This is by far my favorite VR game, of all time.  This might be up in my top ten games of all time actually, because it is so fun slicing blocks to the beat of a song.  The studio behind this game have added so many different things since I first booted this up.  They have added a new difficulty, added MP, added a ton of free songs and paid songs, and have made the game super customizable.

 

If you get a PSVR2 when that comes out or if you have a PSVR, GET THIS GAME!!!

 

Difficulty: 5/10

Enjoyment: 10/10

Platinum #201 - Killzone Shadow Fall (PS4)

 

Kind of had a rude reminder to finish up my KZ games from GG, but I had a good time finally completing Shadow Fall.  The MP is meh, but the story was so fun.  I loved the environment and the gunplay, but there were sections that left me wondering where I needed to go next.  No wonder I put this down so many times over the years after inching a little bit in the story

 

Difficulty: 3/10

Enjoyment: 5/10

 

_____________

Platinum #202 - Dreams (PS4)

 

I really thought that I would enjoy this game a lot more than I did.  The whole creation aspect was so cool to me and it was fun playing other people's creations for a bit, but I was pretty bored by the time I put this down, back in 2020.  Ended up going back this year to complete a few of the remaining trophies, but I think I'm going to stick with my Stardew Valley, Minecraft, and Portal Knights type games if I am ever in the mood to create or build.

The only trophy I've had to boost and probably will ever boost. I tried for yearsss to get it organically but had to get the last handful with some help. Glad I was able to get it before OW2 in October. Hopefully, we'll get trophies there but I think it might just be for the campaign

Pretty easy and simple game, it was perfect for my girlfriend that isn’t very good with video games, but little by little I’m trying to bring her to this wonderful world that are videogames ?

Tormented Souls

 

 

Magus

 

 

ARK Survival Evolve

 

Platinums 147, 148 and 149. With assistance, especially for ARK, too buggy to play it normally and a very big file. Magus wasn't as bad as I thought, I'll plat Tormented souls PS5 in the future, very good RE tribute.

#295 - Elden Ring

 

The lands lie in ruin. The Elden Ring has been shattered. There is no order left.

 

The Lands Between were once ruled by Queen Marika, an immortal being, who reigned over the lands and acted as keeper of the Elden Ring - a physical manifestation of the concept of order. And in the middle of the kingdom stands the Erdtree, an enormous luminous tree representing her Golden Order, blessing the population with grace through its golden aura. Queen Marika's reign was challenged, however, and in the midst of a dangerous uprising, Queen Marika shattered the Elden Ring, shortly disappearing after. Her offspring, demigods, claimed a Shard each after her disappearance and waged war with each other, corrupted by the Shards. The wars yielded no significant result, no demigod was deemed a worthy successor to Queen Marika. All that remains, are lawless, ravaged landscapes filled with armies, foes, animals, monsters and demigods, each controlling one region of The Lands Between.

 

The prophecy speak of a Tarnished, exiled from The Lands Between long ago, who would make his/her way back after the Shattering to become a champion, restoring the Elden Ring and becoming the new Elden Lord.

 

The story of Elden Ring is a very fascinating and epic one. But what I miss the most in a Soulsborne game, is how obscurely some narrative details are hidden. If the story was brought forward a bit more, these games would be among my most favorite games of all time. The finer details of the lore, you'll have to look up yourself once you finished the game. That is most likely the only con I mention, because everything else belongs to FromSoftware's finest work to date.

 

For those of you who are not familiar with a FromSoftware blueprint, this is how it works. You are a customizable warrior who travels through a world in each game, fighting challenging bosses and leveling up. You are usually on a quest for power, taking a throne to yourself - although Elden RIng does also offer different endings based on your actions. As you traverse the world, you collect XP (referred to as Runes in Elden Ring) and you cash those in to level up in different areas at checkpoints which also function as fast-travel points (traditionally these are Bonfires, but here they're Sites of Grace). You die carrying your Runes? You'll only have one chance to retrieve them where you last perished. You die again before you can claim them? They're lost forever. Besides that, you are free to level up as much as you can and wield whatever you want, based on your stats and what your build consists of.

 

This is FromSoftware's first real open world design, and is it a looker! The very first moment you emerge from the tutorial cave and lay eyes on Limgrave, the first region, and the immense Erdtree in the distance, you won't know where to visually feast on first, and this applies to many other massive regions of the game. You'll gaze in awe, wondering where to go first. You'll also gain access to a spectral steed very early on, called "Torrent" whom you can summon in most places and will help you traverse The Lands Between, with a satisfying double jump to help reach some of the more trickier areas.

 

There is a very specific mindset required to get into when you play a Soulsborne game. Elden Ring is no different. The game does not hold your hand at any time; instead, it gives you complete freedom to explore wherever you want. Exploring and discovering everything will easily take you over 100 hours if you wish to squeeze every last bit of fresh gameplay out of The Lands Between. What is most daunting, yet also incredibly refreshing, is that unbound feeling when you first enter Limgrave. New players will feel paralyzed: "Where do I go now? I don't know, isn't there some marker?" There is in some way: some Sites of Grace emit a golden glow floating into a direction as a hint. But that's all you're getting. And sometimes it leads to bosses you're absolutely not ready for. In that case, it's best to venture off and find new areas, grow stronger, beat minibosses, invest those precious Runes, and come back to challenge the main boss once more. And if you love a good boss fight, you will be smitten when you play through Elden Ring. All main story bosses, non-mandatory story bosses, optional bosses (dragons, Evergaol bosses, dungeon bosses, overworld bosses) add up to a staggering total of 104 bosses to defeat. You are getting your money's worth.

 

Needless to say, taking that first step into a general direction and just exploring is very rewarding and will always deliver some interesting reward. Whether it's a new weapon, a spell or incantation, Spirit Ashes, a cookbook to learn new crafting recipes (yes, there is an abudance of crafting in this game!) an NPC with a sidequest, a boss, a secret area: it adds up to building the world of Elden Ring and feeding you some intel, making you stronger. As is custom in these games, you do not need to go at it alone. You can summon either Spirit Ashes (which are a unique AI companion) or you can summon friendly players and AI players to help out wherever the option presents itself. People still leave messages behind, giving you some advice. This entire layer of metagaming adds to the experience: you're sharing information and cooperating to help beat bosses or enter new areas. Even the pools of blood - which are essentially recorded echoes of real player deaths - are hilarious at times. I still chuckle when I witness some random player who stands on an edge, hesitates for two seconds, tries to make a clearly impossible jump to another ledge and then tumble into the depths below. Each time, I still laugh and say out loud: "How on Earth did you think you could ever make that jump?" But you'll never feel alone in the Herculean task of restoring the Elden Ring: seeing white shades run around are live echoes of players in the same area exploring or fighting, and those red blood pools indicate you're all in this together, sometimes crawling to reach the finish line.

 

There is a learning curve in Elden Ring. A steep one in the first ten hours. You'll feel disillusioned and maybe even demotivated when you hit that massive first real "Boss-You-Can't-Mess-With" wall. But once you keep leveling and return stronger, beat that first serious boss by the skin of your teeth and pass that first big hurdle: your confidence grows. I can do this. I can make it. That second big hurdle is still another big one to take, but you'll ease into things and manage a bit better. That graph of difficulty and time will start to flatten much more and you'll reap the fruits of your labor. Enemies will fall more easily, you'll learn to cash in those Runes strategically, find better builds and experiment with new weapons and spells. Blooming into a legendary warrior. All while you're moving closer to the Erdtree to confront the divine rule that has been slumbering for so long.

 

It builds up to an experience that does really stick with me. The final act of the game - there's a point of no return where something cataclysmic occurs - is the cherry on top. The final boss battles were certainly challenging, but satisfying to complete. Accompanied by beautiful music and impressive visuals, as is the norm throughout the entire game. If there's one award only they can win this year, it's "Best Art Direction". The team behind the visual style of Elden Ring has gone beyond to deliver. It is one of the most stunning open world games you can play to date, in a dynamic day-and-night setting.

 

As mentioned, there are also multiple endings, so those warrant extra playthroughs - if you're not backing up your save in the cloud and using it again. Once you finished your epic journey in The Lands Between, you can do it all over again in New Game Plus retaining pretty much everything except for key items. Obviously. And once you beat that, you can gear up for New Game Plus Plus. It goes on, you get the picture. That is all even extra, in the end. After beating it, I felt a sense of accomplishment and fulfillment. I found what I was looking for in a game. Elden Ring has finally transcended its own genre and turned into something truly special.

 

Elden Ring is nothing less of an exceptionally well-designed and excellent game. Ten years from now, it will still be discussed as a milestone in video game history. A "Game of the Year" award is in the cards. The only one to challenge that claim, will most likely be God of War: Ragnarök. But it will be difficult for Santa Monica Studios to grab that crown. Kratos may have finally met his match.

 

Most frustrating trophy - Shardbearer Malenia

 

 

"I am Malenia, Blade of Miquella."

 

Those words are ingrained into my memory after the insane boss fight that was Malenia. As one of the many children of Queen Marika, she's a demigod who carries one of the Shards of the Elden Ring. Being entirely optional, you do not need to face her if you are just after completing the game. But if you want the platinum trophy, you'd better prepare yourself for what is one of the most brutal battles in any FromSoftware production.

 

From the very beginning, she does not let up. Wielding a long katana and being extremely agile and fast, she absorbs your HP with every hit she inflicts. Her damage output is insane, even when you leveled up very high. It's enough to decimate even the most skilled player. Being affected by a disease called "Scarlet Rot", her attacks can also inflict it upon you which eats away at your HP bar as a sort of poison. Blocking only helps in a few situations, and then she'll still steal your HP. It's all about either dodging constantly or going all-in and wailing on her to stagger her as much as possible. And she has two phases, which trigger back-to-back each with their own health bar. She is no joke, and I must admit it took me ten-twenty attempts before I looked up any advice on how to deal with her in the second phase. If it were not for the "Rivers of Blood" katana and my Mimic Tear Ashes (which essentially summons a somewhat nerfed AI copy of your own build), she would have remained nigh-invincible and been pure hell for my melee build. There is no shame in consulting a guide: even the most hardened Soulsborne players have stated she is laughably overpowered and broken. On the other end, you have self-proclaimed alpha elitist FromSoftware players - and we all know those are a handful - who say you're a disgrace if you dare use any Spirit Ashes "because it demonstrates how much of a noob and how bad you are". The Ashes are a legitimate gameplay mechanic, so I say: use everything at your disposal and keep at it with the Rivers of Blood katana and your Mimic. Keep trying until you tear her to shreds.

 

She is so difficult in fact, that veteran players complained about her difficulty level to FromSoftware directly. Even crazier, her pre-launch build was even tougher to deal with: she originally would have had an extra health bar, vampiric abilities, increasing aggressive attacks and more. She would have only been beatable by a handful of gaming legends and left teary-eyed masses in her wake.

 

Beating several of the bosses in Elden Ring made me cheer, but defeating Malenia took a huge weight off of my gaming shoulders I have not experienced in a long time.

 

Goodbye, Malenia, Blade of Miquella. In memory of all the Tarnished you vanquished: may the Scarlet Rot forever taint your very bones until the end of Time itself.

I highly recommend this one

I got the platinum (and some extra content like all bounty hunts) of Super Neptunia RPG on my second playthrough. 

 

 I usually recommend Hyperdimension Neptunia series for newcomers to JRPG/ARPG genre. Except this game is bad: clunky controls, bugs that soflocks the game in some battles and useless equipments.
