#124 XBLAZE CODE : EMBRYO

 

Successor to the Azure 

Completed XBLAZE

 

This should be it's plat image... seriously

 

 

Bought this along with it's sequel earlier this month to expand my Visual Novel Collection. And it only took me 10 days to finish it

 

It was an Ok game to me with a ridiculous trophy requirement *stare at AOS*. It is not bad (I think), maybe I just expected more since I liked Calamity Trigger and Continuum Shift's story. Well at least it introduced me to Hinata :3

 

Would I recommend it? Maybe if you a huge fan of Visual Novels or just want to have an easy(?) plat and if this one's on sale. 

 

Will I play the sequel now? don't think so.

YES!!!! Finally got Doom platinum before the end of summer!

 

 

       - Thy Flesh Consumed

 

Funny glitch story though, when I got the gold trophie IDDQD (which required all runes to be fully upgraded), it actually pop up too soon, as I still had to upgrade the last rune (the saving throw one) to unlock it. I actually only had 11 of the 12 fully upgraded, so this is the first time that a glitch trophie became a good thing. Never the less, I still upgraded it and wanted to see if the trophie would pop up again, but it didn't. Never the less I earn this platinum as in my opinion this was a harder game than Wolfenstein the new order.

 #3. Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1

 

 

Difficulty: 3/10

Enjoyment: 1,000,000 out of 10   

 

I want to start by saying this game came at me as somewhat of a surprise.  Obviously I'd seen a lot of talk around the forums about the HDN games and I talked to a friend who had played one of the games who referred to it as fan service.  I guess I didn't expect very much but I feel that I was so very wrong with my initial judgments.

 

I picked this and Re;Birth 2 up when they were on sale over the summer, as they were super cheap and I thought why not.  Honestly, I've loved every minute of playing this game...the characters, the animation, the music, the story....even the 100 million credit grind wasn't so bad.  The game actually holds up as a really decent RPG, I'm so glad that I played it and will be playing more of the HDN games (currently got Re;Birth 2 downloading as we speak)

 

I know that everyone loves the CPU's, but I thought Broccoli and Compa were just cuteness overload  

 

I also completed this sooner than I thought so plan on playing Amnesia: Memories next which will be my very first otome game

Adventures of MANA (#250!)

 

 

The Hero of Mana

Obtain all trophies

 

Hey, a screenshot's a screenshot...at least it's not a black loading screen   

 

Anything that rides on nostalgia, and Chocobos, is more than welcome to my Milestone Cabinet.

It's been a long, long time (but in a galaxy very close by) since my last Mana-related experience.

But I've always liked them, from Final Fantasy Adventure (Mystic Quest here) to superb Secret of Mana to Children of Mana to this, AoM. The circle has closed.

And this remake of an old Game Boy classic still gives the adventurer in me memories of a happy, gaming-filled childhood.

But as for Adventures of MANA itself, I had forgotten pretty much everything about the game   

Which I see as a good thing, of course. Now it felt like a whole new experience, with the wondrous exploring and action-RPG:ing.

AoM does have its faults, like the constant weapon switching for different enemies and environments. Takes too much of time overall, and lessens the joy.

Then there's the lack of inventory space. The impossibility of carrying a bazillion herbs has been bugging me since the first Resident Evil. Eeeviiilll   

Those petty grievances aside, I liked Adventures of MANA a lot. And as an added bonus, made it as 10th in the Fastest Achievers list. For now   

If the words 'MANA', 'Seiken Densetsu' or 'Chocobo!' give you a warm and fuzzy feeling, grab Adventures of MANA and play it like it's 1999 1991

PLATINUM #292: Alone With You (PS4)

Space pioneer

Unlock all trophies.

[Midnightwards666]

I am now officially a SSX expert. In other words, I got the platinum for SSX, a few days ago.

Enjoyment: 7/10. The gameplay was great fun, but there were some grindy and boring trophies, and I was very happy after they were over.

Difficulty: 7/10. There certainly are some challenging trophies. There was one in particular which did seem a bit impossible at first, but once you know what you're doing, it's very doable. Challenging, but not insane.

Congrats on the plat. And maybe that's because of the whole "bully" theme, which is something highly controversial on many countries. Even the original game had a great amount of controversy surrounding it, which is why its name was changed to "Canis Canem Edit" on PAL territory instead of Bully.

Thank you. That's shame. Those overly sensitive butthurt people really make me pissed off. Can't they just understand it is just a god damn game? From my perspective, this game isn't any worse than GTA when it comes to morals

Yeah, but I guess psychological violence is seen as something worst than physical violence on many countries. Themes like racism, homophobia, bullying, etc are taboo things that are mostly avoided on mainstream media. Meanwhile blood, explosions, death, etc is something seen as "normal" and allowed on popular movies, games, TV, etc...

Not equally fair in my opinion.

Still on 2009 some composer said he was making the OST for Bully 2, but nothing has been said about it since then.

I saw a picture a while ago, it was something like old times vs now picture. Before part,  there were 20 years old soldiers on WW II with the writing on it " 20 years old going to shore when there is a machine gun firing at them, high possibility of death" and now part, 20 years olds now need a space because words can kill.

Your post remind me of that picture. Sorry by the way l googled but failed to find.

This is interesting.

 

When I played through GTA: San Andreas and GTA V, I don't think I ever came across a mission or a situation where the characters would discuss racism, homophobia and bullying beyond just a couple of sentences. San Andreas is a video game representation of early 1990s Los Angeles that was rampant with racism, crime, dominant gangs and issues involving police. Whereas GTA V focused on the present day, what with all of society's flaws, misrepresentations and exploits of every day life. Michael is an unhappy, retired bank robber and Trevor is a psychopath high on methamphetamine. But neither character really discussed homophobia. I expected Franklin to mention racism in several instances, but as far as I know I haven't heard them. 

 

Mainstream gaming has mostly avoided homophobia and bullying because those are mostly seen as a red flag. Two games I've just recently platinumed are story driven, but have both avoided these taboo subjects. I expect the other Telltale games I'll be playing to avoid these topics as well.

#136 - Funk of Titans

 

 

 

Fun little endless runner type game. It's quite short an easy, except the pegasus crap which is mostly down to luck as it's randomly generated. Other than that and the boss battles, which are just lame quick time events, it's an alright game. Although the level names are deceitful, as they had nothing to do with Pop, Rap or Rock.

 

Enjoyment: 6

Difficulty: 3

Yeah, one of the most recent examples that I can recall of explicit homosexuality in a game is The Last of Us, with that lesbian kiss scene (that I won't spoil just in case). And in the main game it was implied that another male secondary character was gay too. 

Still like you said is not discussed that much on the game as far as having 1 or 2 scenes at most dealing with such themes.

Plat # 67 Ether One

 

First real plat on ps4 ignoring Sound Shapes

 

Easy game to finish. I used a guide for collectibles when i was at the end of the game and had found all ribbons in 3 of 4 areas. Hadn't even realised where the entrance of the 4th was going after 100% weren't possible without a guide.

 

Good adventure

 

Worst thing are technical issues though... couldn't start this game with 2 savegames on my console... it froze sometimes when loading a save, so i pushed through the whole day without quitting    always froze when going from Pinwheel Harbor to Village made me start all over 2 times....

So that's why i needed several starts to get even to the half progress of this game

There is no homophobia in Bully as well. If you pointed these out because l typed l about morals and gta, while playing gta you can go crazy and randomly shoot everything and everybody. Bully on the other hand, all you can do is using your nerd toys to throw some fire cracker rockets ( deadliest ) or taunt them.

I guess the whole world is becoming too much American like " hey! Shooting people is normal y'now it is my god damn right! In fact l dont like your opinion l am going to shoot you! "

Gotta make Uncle Sam proud l guess

To clear myself, l like doing things that l can't / don't while gaming thats why l think it was a shame.

Super-Dupermension Neptunia Master

You've nabbed every single trophy. Nice!

 

Difficulty 1.5/10

Fun 9/10

 

This is definitely my favorite game in the series (so far.)

Will I play the sequel now? don't think so. 

You should probably wait at least a few months to play it. It felt more like a fandisc than a sequel. A good portion of the story is repeated from the first game.

Super fun and simple game. The only thing I had any kind of trouble with was the drifting.

Took me a while to get the hang of it but that one million drift challenge.. Man.. That was a pain in the ass.

I couldn't do it for the life of me. I blamed a bug for failing so much. I couldn't hold any long drifts, even during the easier ones.

Then an update came out and I was able to score over one million points in under an hour.

Glad to add this platinum to my collection though.

:platinum: #25 (PS3) & #26 (Vita) Sly 2: Band of Thieves (June 1st, 2016 - June 7th, 2016)

 

Difficulty: 2/10

Excitement: 7/10

 

I was not too particularly pleased with this entry in the series at first simply because I wanted to play as Sly Cooper. Sucker Punch removed the linear, platforming excitement of the first game and added in a more open environment. Bentley and Murray are used in every location, Bentley specializing in hacking computers and Murray specializing in fighting enemies and breaking equipment.

 

Sly 2 is at least three times the length of Sly and the Thievius Raccoonus, which meant I was looking at a 15 - 20 hour timeframe to earn all trophies. I do however appreciate the platforming and the fact that Sly 2 is very easy. The coin trophies, ThiefNet trophies and the bottle trophies are the only ones you need besides the story trophies, and you've already earned a platinum for it. Nothing difficult in this game.

 

:platinum: #27 (PS3) & #28 (Vita) Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves (June 18th, 2016 - July 9th, 2016)

 

 

Difficulty: 3/10

Excitement: 5.5/10

 

The final game of the Sly trilogy initially released for the PS2 had a number of downs. Sucker Punch decided to keep the same formula of Sly 2 and added in *FIVE* additional playable characters.

 

The downs

 

You control a total of eight playable characters. I finally had the option to play as Carmelita, but her role is simply chasing Sly Cooper and attacking enemies with the shock pistol. The Guru is an aboriginal from the Australian outback who can mind control enemies. Penelope is Bentley's love interest and remote control specialist from Holland. The Panda King is a former villian turned monk from China who uses fireworks to take down hard to destroy objects. Finally, Dimitri is a dancing, disco fueled iguana who can swim underwater. 

 

Apart from the three main characters, I had no interest at all to play the rest. The RC vehicles were very responsive yet hard to control, which meant replaying the same missions over and over on the Vita. Guru missions seem a bit pointless as all he does is hop on enemies to let them kamikaze towards a wall or object. Dimitri has TWO parts in the entire game and let me tell you that last one to defeat Dr M underwater was a huge pain in the ass.

 

There is a difficulty spike in the last area. Basically the game is telling you you should of had enough time to get good at platforming and timing in the previous areas, and while I understand games generally get harder towards the end, I felt the spike was a bit too much. One mission involves Murray beating down the last of Dr M's goons once Sly and the gang reach the vault. If you're not good at dodging and moving about constantly, you better get good by this point. Bentley's part in this area was a little frustrating as well.

 

Last but not least, this games antagonist was simply not interesting. One could argue that Clockwerk wasn't very interesting but the fact he was in the first two games makes me question why Sucker Punch didn't include him in this one. Dr M is an angry, overly bitter person who has spent decades trying to break into the Cooper vault. He has a hatred for Cooper just like Clockwerk did, but beyond Dr M knowing Cooper's dad there is nothing more we know about him. He is angry towards everyone, even towards his henchmen.

 

The ending sucked. It basically means there really wasn't a point to recruit four characters to take a stab at the Cooper vault. After someone beats a given area challenges are available for it, and they range from extremely easy to pulling a couple of hairs. Navigating through the vault in one go was a decent challenge, using Murray's ball form to reach a certain destination in China wasn't. Very inconsistent challenges.

 

At least I have both platinums, which means I won't be having to play Sly 3 again unless it gets released on another Playstation platform that supports trophies.

 

#31 (PS3) Ratchet & Clank (August 6th, 2016)

 

 

Difficulty: 3/10

Excitement: 7/10

 

Solid first entry for a very good platforming series that started on the PS2. It is however the least enjoyable of the trilogy. I strongly prefer James Arnold Taylor voicing Ratchet, Mike didn't have the enthusiasm in this game.

 

There is no bolt multiplier in this games Challenge Mode which means I had to use the bolt glitch to earn a million bolts, unless I wanted to play through the game four times over. Skill points in this one are easy, none of them are difficult. All that's needed on the second run is the Gold Weapons, with a million bolts that shouldn't be a problem. Far from Insomniac's best, but out of the three platforming series (Jak, Ratchet and Sly) Ratchet is the most enjoyable. 

 

#32 (Vita) The Wolf Among Us (August 9th, 2016)

 

 

Difficulty: 1/10

Excitement: 8/10

 

If I had to recommend to somebody a game that can be platinumed in less than a day and doesn't need a guide whatsoever, it would be this title.

 

This is the first of what I hope to be several Telltale Games titles that I will platinum. These games are heavy in storytelling, but give the player the option to change an outcome based on the choices they are presented with. I must say that The Wolf Among Us is by far the easiest platinum I have. Without spoiling any of the story, the characters each have their own problems and conflicts. How those problems are resolved is entirely up to the player. Bigby can be a total badass and show extreme acts of violence to those he dislikes, or he can be a pushover and have everybody around him take advantage.

 

NOBODY has to try at all to get the platinum for this game. It is pure storytelling with cinematics and cut scenes, all the player has to do beyond finishing the game is to replay certain moments in given chapters, so that the Book of Fables is finished for that chapter. That's it. The game wants nothing more than you. It is an interactive novel and movie all the same. To be perfectly honest with you all, I would like to see more companies take this route in gaming. I feel Until Dawn was a very solid entry in Playstation 4's current lifespan, and these types rely heavily on purely making either smart decisions or downright stupid decisions, with possible consequences later on. If Heavy Rain and Beyond Two Souls both utilize these concepts, then I will definitely be playing them in the coming weeks.

 

 

#33 (PS3) Ratchet & Clank 2 (August 15th, 2016)

 

 

Difficulty: 3/10

Excitement: 8/10

 

My personal favorite of the Ratchet trilogy. This is the game that introduced a bolt multiplier, along with hoverbike races, two arenas and space dogfights to take a break from the usual story missions. What makes this game stand out a little for me is you do not know who the villains really are until near the end. There is a difficulty spike about midway through or so when you start running across enemies that wear armor. Ratchet however has much more nanotech than he did in the previous game, and this game included strafing. You also have the option to buy armor, which makes the game a lot easier. So there's really not much in the way of difficulty. 

 

#34 (PS3) Ratchet & Clank 3: Up Your Arsenal (August 20th, 2016)

 

Difficulty: 3/10

Excitement: 7.5/10

 

Many people say this is their favorite Ratchet game, but I didn't find it as enjoyable. Dr Nefarious is too much over the top and he is a complete loony when compared with Chairman Drek. Insomniac Games decided to remove the hoverbike races and space fights in place of more action. I didn't like the fighting arena as much, and the music wasn't as good in my opinion. However I think this game had the most variety of weapons. You have the usual RYNO which is a stable of the series, but you also wield a fire whip which reaches much farther than Ratchet's Omniwrench. The ranger missions were quite fun and varied. Overall it is the standard stable of what I've seen in the previous two games, but compared to it's predecessor, Up Your Arsenal did little in the way of innovation.

 

Challenge Mode requires more grinding this time around. Instead of bolts counting towards a trophy even when you've spent them all on new weapons and armor, you have to obtain 10 million bolts at once. Very unlikely to get anywhere near this amount in the normal game, you have to play Challenge Mode. All weapons (except the ones from Megacorp) have to be leveled to OMEGA status, I literally had to spend a couple hours or so leveling them up in the fighting arena. Once fully upgraded though, they are extremely fun to use. 

 

Not my favorite Ratchet and Clank title but still very enjoyable.
