#46 Full Completion

Cute little indie game I got through PsPlus years back. Those were better days, you got twice the games and often times you had games like this among them, games you would probably never buy on your own but they often turn out to be fun if you do end up getting them. This games difficulty mainly comes due to some tricky jumps and timing related things, also some puzzles. All the trophies are earned by collecting 36 items, most are easy but some are pretty challenging. For what it is the game is good and not too long, it had some nice ideas and bossfights and was never boring to play. A guide is highly recommended because some of these items are very well hidden.

 #262 - Uncharted Tides: Port Royal

 

 

 

Platinum
Unlock every Trophy.

 

Enjoyment: 7/10

Difficulty: 1/10

 

Choo-choo! Back on the Artifex Mundi train with another semi-decent game.

I didn't enjoy the storyline as much as some of the others I've played, but the variety of puzzles and hidden object scenes make up for it.

Not nearly as challenging as some of their other offerings, but still enjoyable.

I really love Artifex Mundi games and I'll play them as long as they keep releasing them.

If you haven't played any yet and are interested, I'd recommend starting with Nightmares from the Deep.

 

 

 #263 - 7'Scarlet

 

 

 

Okunezato Master!
Obtained every trophy.

 

Enjoyment: 7/10

Difficulty: 2/10

 

Along with Artifex Mundi games, my other guilty pleasure is a good visual novel.

I'd been waiting for 7'Scarlet to go on sale and I finally managed to buy it in the Big in Japan sale.

As far as VNs go, this was pretty decent. It's beautifully drawn and the story was good.

The balance between the darker themes and light-hearted romance was well done.

If you like visual novels and/or an easy platinum, I recommend this one.

 

 

 #264 - Harvey's New Eyes

 

 

 

Harvey's New Eyes unlocked!
You unlocked all other trophies.

 

Enjoyment: 8/10

Difficulty: 2/10

 

My all time favourite genre of game is point-and-click and I was so excited when I managed to get this game on sale.

I'd been stalking it in my wishlist for months before I finally bought it and it was a lot of fun!

Sadly, I never played the original game, so I didn't really understand some of the gags.

You play as Lilli who unknowingly brings death and destruction wherever she goes.

Despite being mute and seemingly well-mannered and cute, the people she interacts with end up dying in grotesque ways.

When characters die in the game, these little gnome-esque creatures paint the bodies in bright pink paint. It's hilarious.

Lilli is living in a convent, ruled by the evil Mother Superior who hates children, and Lilli is the primary target of her rage.

 Mother Superior gives consent to the menacing Dr Marcel to hypnotise Lilli with Harvey (and his new eyes).

After being hypotised, Lilli is unable to do naughty things - unless she manages to override the hypnosis...

If I say anything further, I'll end up in spoiler territory. It's definitely one of my favourite point-and-click games for the PS4, though.

The game is full of laughs, full of utterly bonkers dialogue and a variety of puzzles and mini games to keep you interested.

Definitely give this game a go if you fancy a change of pace.

 

 

 #265 - Steins;Gate: My Darling's Embrace

 

 

 

Attractor Field Convergence
Played through everything in STEINS;GATE: My Darling's Embrace.

 

Enjoyment: 7/10

Difficulty: 2/10

 

I've played the other Steins;Gate releases on the PS4/PS Vita (except Steins;Gate Elite) and I enjoyed those games a lot.

My Darling's Embrace brings back the same characters and softens the mood by turning it into a dating simulator.

The gameplay is still the same, where you have to answer text messages or phone calls and make dialogue options.

It's definitely a light-hearted take on the whole franchise and, for the die-hard fans, it might be a little disappointing.

If you enjoy the games and don't mind something with a slower pace and a bit of fun, definitely pick this up.

 

 

 #266 - Date A Live: Rio-Reincarnation

 

 

 

Date A Completionist
Obtained all trophies.

 

Enjoyment: 6/10

Diffculty: 2/10

 

So this game is actually three visual novels rolled into one.

You get Rio-Reincarnation, Rinne Utopia and Arusu Install included.

Due to "spacequakes", these mysterious Spirits appear and our protagonist has the ability to seal them away.

How? By making them fall in love with him, of course!

It's extremely heavy with fanservice and is rather cringey with some of its dialogue and situations.

Definitely not going to be everyone's cup of tea and, unfortunately, it wasn't mine.

Despite that, the games were decent and the multiple endings were interesting to watch.

Not the best VN I've ever played, definitely not the worst.

 

 

 #267 &  #268 -  Syrup and the Ultimate Sweet

 

 

 

Ultimate Sweet
You've seen everything in the game! Thanks for playing!

 

Always fun to see Ratalaika Games releasing different genres of games.

This one was right up my alley because it's a visual novel.

Nothing nearly as long or indepth as some of the others I've played recently, but it's not too bad.

There are multiple endings to obtain by selecting different dialogue choices.

My only "complaint" would be that it's not very well optimised for the PS Vita. The skip option lags so badly.

If you're looking for a SUPER easy platinum, look no further.

 

 

 #269 -  The Sims 4

 

 

 

Ultimate Sim Guru
Earn all trophies.

 

Enjoyment: 8/10

Difficulty: 2/10

 

I have been a fan of The Sims since its first release back in 2000.

20 years later (I feel so old) and I'm still playing The Sims and still as in love with it as ever.

I have The Sims 4 on my PC, but I was looking forward to seeing how they optimised it for PS4.

I used to play The Sims Bustin' Out on the PS2 for hours and hours on end, so I was excited to play on console again.

Oh boy. The game does not do well on console at all. So disappointed!

The frame rate drops are absolutely dire and it's frustrating as hell trying to switch between Live and Build mode without lag.

Besides that, the game is as lovely as ever and I really enjoyed going for the trophies.

The trophies are all very simple if you use the following GUIDE.

I followed the video guide by @Bushido_Cypher and it was absolutely flawless. Can't thank you enough!

I'll probably stick to playing The Sims 4 on my PC, rather than on console.

Happy to play it and get the platinum, but it's now deleted off my dash and will rot in my library forevermore.

Appreciate the shout out and congrats on it! 
Definitely smart by going with the PC idea lmao!

#166th Dragon Ball Z Kakarot

Overally, l enjoyed it. It could have been way better though. There were some memorable scenes that game ruined for me. For example : Goku threatens Supreme Kai scene was utterly lame on game and these enemies encounters you while you're free roaming is pretty annoying, also too much of cencorship.

#27

DriveClub Bikes

 

 

Enjoyment: 7/10

Difficulty: 4/10

Time taken: 3 years, 1 month, 3 weeks

 

I figured it was probably about time I finished this one off, just in case. I'd already done the multiplayer trophies some time ago before the server shutdown was even announced, but you never know whether something weird might happen.. I've been putting it off as I'm not particularly great at motorbike racers, but found this one relatively easy - probably because it drives much like DriveClub! The biggest challenges were the clean laps, but majority of these were pretty tame and completable within a handful of runs. There was a final grind levelling up the "base" bikes to Level 15, but this wasn't too bad either.

#53 - Assassin's Creed III Remastered

 

 

Master Assassin
Get every trophy.

 

Another Master Assassin to the collection. When I first played the original on PC years ago I hated it. This was my least favorite AC because of the hardest full sync objectives in the series. Now they are much easier in the remaster and that made me warm up to the game. The dlc while it has an interesting story I found it annoying with fighting enemies most of the time. That's just lazy and boring. Overall I don't hate the game that much now.

Enjoyment: 8/10

Difficulty: 3/10

 

Actually Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax was one of the easiest fighting games I've ever played. The only one thing that was difficult for me was to finish Time Attack mode in 8 minutes. Other than that the trophies were very simple, but sometimes they required grind. 

Overall, I really liked the game even though it wasn't that good as Blazblue or Arcana Heart. Definitely recommend it!

Beat Saber- PS4 (#362) Milestone Trophy #10,000

"Platinum"

 

This was my primary reason for picking up a PSVR set and it was worth it on its own. I spent my high school years playing Halo, Smash Bros and DDR with my friends. This was a natural evolution to the beat step genre. Obviously, instead of moving your legs to hit targets on the ground, you are moving your arms to slice targets as they approach you.  This is also a game I know I will continue returning to often. It is so great to zone out and drop in to the neon lights and pumping songs. 

 

The platinum itself is pretty straight forward and really only needs some practice to hit the difficulty ramp. I cleared the difficult stuff way before I hit the 24 HR playtime trophy. My DDR background probably helped, but I feel that anyone that has some musical inclination has a strong shot at the platinum.

 

The song selection is a bit small for the base game, but they have kept adding some free songs here and there. Earlier this year they added 3 more to create a music pack on the base game. The additional paid music packs are excellent. Even if you don't like a music genre or band, the designers made the tracks play perfectly with their stream of box arrows.  Just last week, the Timbaland music track was added to add some R&B to the mix. They have even added a 90 degree mode which spices up the supported songs. 

 

This is a blast to play, fun to show to video game or VR new comers, and there seems to new stuff to check out regularly.

 #311 - The Bureau: XCOM Declassified

Completionist
Obtain all the Trophies

 

My expectations were low going into this one given its troubled development and the negative opinions I've read about the game in the past, but as a big fan of the XCOM series, I decided to give it a go myself. I was actually really pleased with the game overall. The combat is pretty much ripped right from Mass Effect 2/3 which certainly isn't a bad thing. Playing on the hardest difficulty forces you to think about your actions carefully, like when to use certain powers, where to position your teammates, etc. I really enjoyed it. I also thought the game's setting was cool. It takes place in 1960's America in the height of the Cold War, except instead of fighting those commie bastards, it's a full-blown alien invasion instead.  I'm surprised with how gripped I was with the story, especially with some of the stuff that happens towards the end. 

 

The game is certainly a bit rough around the edges, but it was well worth experiencing. I'm not sure why it gets all the hate it does.

Just wish they'd allow custom songs, like PC. Would love to go in on that Rap God track, or some Linkin Park. Or, really, just some more EDM. The game's much more exciting than Just Dance, but the tracks are limited..though I do need to try out the Imagine Dragons songs.

Strider (PS3)

Strider Master

Earn all trophies in Strider

 

Enjoyment: 8/10

Difficulty: 4/10

Rarity: Rare (13.09% here on PSNProfiles)

 

So, I saw this game being on sale for a really cheap price, so after watching a bit of it on Youtube, I decided to get it. 

Now, I'll be honest & say I know next to nothing about Strider, since I only played one of the old games when I was younger but never finished it cause it was hard and because my english wasn't that good at the time, so I probably didn't understand much of the plot. I did, however, use Strider a lot in Marvel VS Capcom 1 or 2 (can't remember which). 

Anyway, while I was playing the game, I looked up Strider's story to know a bit more about him, so at the end of the day, I guess I'm more familiar with this cool looking ninja after many years of knowing nothing about him.

PS: I love characters that wear scarfs ?, so maybe that was the reason I chose him so much in MVSC.

 

Back on topic, the game was fun. Short, but fun nonetheless, so if you're interested, I'd say give it a chance if you find it at a cheap price ?.

Savior of Gallowmere

 

Another PSX classic, remade from the ground up for modern platforms. I had a blast playing through this game, I won't deny their were some instances of notable frustration. But these roadblocks were thankfully few and far between. Had a good time overall and would definitely recommend the game.

Platinum #78: Uncharted 4: A Thief's End

Difficulty: 4/10

Enjoyment: 9/10

What a great game, finished the story almost 4 years ago and did not remember a lot. It's great reliving everything and the gameplay is almost perfect. The trophylist is long, that scared me of a bit, but it isn't that hard. Encounter select is a great addition for the trophies, blasted through the clean-up that way. All in all play this game if you haven't!

Platinum #79: PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale

Difficulty: 3/10

Enjoyment: 6/10

The first game I used a boosting group for back in 2018. Didn't feel like completing the game another 18 times, now with COVID-19, I work from home and have a lot of time left during work while I wait. This is a perfect game to do with breaks and no sound. Happy to have it 100% now. It's a nice game, but there were some things that could have been better. Super Smash Bros. does all those things better. I had fun playing this and cleaning up my backlog.

 #193 Bioshock (ps4)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Enjoyment: 5/10

Difficulty: 2/10

 

 

First experience with the series and i can't say i'm impressed. The whole system with the camera research, the annoying collectibles, made the game look like a chore. I hope the next two are better but from what i've seen Bioshock 2 is similar

 

 

 

 #194 Rainbow Moon (ps4)

 

 

 

 

 

Official Rainbow Moon Hero

 

Enjoyment: 7/10

Difficulty: 3/10

 

 

Now this is a fine example where an enjoying game can let you down because of one stupid trophy. And i'm talking about the trophy that forces you to play 100 hours. Now, spending that amount of time on a tactical rpg isn't much. But when you've done almost everything else in 65 hours, well it becomes annoying. And you can't even leave the controller down and let the time pass by, because the game auto-pauses after one minute or so. I used Baldren,Dozeru and Serena. Although Dozeru was very useful during the main game, Serena was the one that i relied in post-game quests and grinding. Trisha and Gorodo seemed useless and i never used the last guy because he joined too late. I started Rainbow Skies recently. It's a bit different but i hope it's as good as RM and without annoying trophies. Also  huge plus, there are no missables trophies

#290 - Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age

 

Wow this was an incredible RPG. I have said before that most RPGs have their 20 hour story and then 80 hours of grind. Well this game I never grinded once in the whole game. The 100 hour playthrough was just me playing the main story or the sidequests. This was an epic story...and then they tacked on another epic story...to end it with another epic story. Seriously each act felt like its own complete game but they just kept going making the story more and more complex.

 

The combat was old-school fun, the characters were bright and colourful, the bosses were huge and somewhat challenging (it wasn't just mash a button over and over) and the world was expansive.

 

I also want to say if you are a Dragon Ball Z fan you will enjoy the nods to a lot of their characters. Not wanting to spoil anything but there is a character that looks like Dr. Gero who has a connection with the main villain. Then in Act 3 you learn about a new evil that is coming and I laughed thinking to myself "what did Dr. Gero succeed and the androids are coming" and then the final boss looks like a modified version of Cell

 

Anyways, a great game and I highly recommend.

Watch Dogs 2

Enjoyment: 7.5/10

Difficulty: 2.5/10 (4/10 with Showdown DLC)

Time: 32hrs (With DLC)

 

Oh Watch Dogs 2. You're so bad yet so enjoyable. There's a big difference between Watch Dogs 1 and 2. To preface, we're talking about story, so calm down with the controversial Watch Dogs 1 graphics downgrade. In Watch Dogs 1, you're a badass vigilante hacker in Chicago out to avenge his niece's death who ends crime lords along the way. Whereas in Watch Dogs 2..... you're an entitled millennial borderline terrorist hacker that literally does things for followers in San Francisco. See the huge difference? Insults aside, I really liked Marcus as a person when you look past the terrorist aspects lol. Also, your hacker group does provide some laughs which I appreciate. Gameplay wise, I feel like it's an upgrade in every way except city hacks to break pursuers. The jumper (RC car) and drone-copter were amazing additions to this universe. All and all a very decent to good game.
