Dragon-Archon Posted May 25, 2015 Author Share Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) I think that's actually a character from Star Ocean 4. I just saw some gameplay vids of SO4, and I think that character matches the character in the vids. The name on the signature is a dead giveaway of it being Meracle which has been mentioned with the battle trophies in a few posts if memory serves. Oh right, can't believe I missed that. What a fail on my part . Thnx for pointing it out for me though. Maintaining this thread and thinking up things sure puts a number on me. I'm cool with that dragon Ok This is a pretty cool idea, I've owned this game for some time now. It's a shame though, I would have joined if my backlog wasn't so huge Anyway I still forward to seeing everyone's progress, I'm curious to know who'll stick through this grind until the end Oh I'm gonna make sure they all make it to the end, I have a nice little torture motivation center setup for those who try to back out before it is done Nah but it will be interesting to see who all goes for the plat. I just hope this gets more people to try the game out since it is a great game. Hopefully this will get more fans of the series especially with Star Ocean 5 being announced not too long ago and helps lead to more Star Ocean games dood Me too, I've been busy thinking up new ideas and other people are helping out too. The official announcement will come soon. Also Natusme, let me know if you want to join. Edited May 25, 2015 by Dragon-Archon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, but it'll probably be several months from now. It depends on my backlog but I'll be glad to join when I can. I'm guessing most of these guys will still be going for the platinum in a few months anyway 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brawler Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Got a good chuckle out of some of these intros! Best of luck to you guys. It's a grind, but I'm sure you can all handle it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon-Archon Posted May 25, 2015 Author Share Posted May 25, 2015 Added a poll to vote on who you think will actually obtain the platinum trophy and also which introductions you think are the best/funniest. Multiple choices are allowed for both questions. Dragon-Archon, the online for White Knight Chronicles 1 & 2 is completely shut down. Luckily, I did download the downloadable/GeoNet quests prior to that happening. It will take twice (or maybe 10x) as long to complete WKC 1 & 2 as a result. I may actually never finish them or Platinum them. I did Platinum Resistance 2 in a month and a half and recently finished MOH Warfighter's multiplayer trophies, so I'm very patient. If there's online stuff for Star Ocean LHI, that's great though! EDIT: My intro -- POEman553 is completely nuts. He's a late comer to trophy hunting because he works jobs that are 80+ hour weeks without any time to actually play. He'll buy games and thinks "that looks cool, I'll play it later!" only for him to scramble like mad when online servers are shut down and wondering which of his games is next. So a lot of the games he plays lives in a world of brown and grey and people shoot each other because 'Merica. He hopes to join us on this journey and he is a fan of JRPG's. He's already prepared to be annoyed by that girl that says 'Kay' a lot, 'kay? EDIT2: On second thought, Dragon-Archon, please write my description to keep in spirit of the 'party of adventurers' theme you have going. This game has been on my mind for Years, Star Ocean has haunted me for quite some time with the luck I've had First time playing was on the 360 but gave up on the last bosses - Gave up Once Second time I stepped up on the Ps3 got back to my Roots, but lost 70 hours due to a corrupt hard drive from hitting my power strip off on accident during a DL, this effected every single game - Gave up Twice Third try I waited a couple years to step up again, but this time I printed all of the guides bought a strategy guide and marked off all weapons, treasure chest, ships, quest and items created to get has much stuff done on the 1st playthrough @ 378 hours, including seeing all of the endings. - success third try The last trophies I completed were the 100 bunny races Now I'm debating on new game plus but all of my characters are at lvl 255 with 80% of all battle of trophies complete, it will be a long journey once again. Add me in after I beat Darksouls and clean up more backlog. Did you make the intros in the op page? I really enjoyed reading those I'd like to leave that to you if its possible... I'm so bad with introductions Added your introductions, hope you like it. Let me know what you think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Royalredpanda Posted May 25, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted May 25, 2015 Well, this looks fun and should motivate me to restart the game. So I'll join, though I'll probably just be playing for the main story and not the platinum... Very slowly 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galactic Hyper Balls Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) Awesome intro, thanks dragon for setting it up. I'm almost done with my 1st playthrough on darksouls, hopefully I can knock out the rest in the next coming week, Once that is done I'll get back to the ocean of stars and work on some BT's or just start my universe diff run with Faize. I'm a bit rusty I'll be happy hitting 90% trophy completion this year with SO4 plus those 60,000 kills holy crap Edited May 25, 2015 by nevetsteven2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFinalEmblem Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 How long do you think you need to plat the game? I think that it will take me at or around 500 hours. 300 hours?! Dude, there's still a lot more to do, so it's gonna be a lot longer. I haven't even started on my Universe mode playthrough yet, I still have BT stuff to do on Galaxy mode.

Behold the power of the intros . You'll be writing it yourself, right ? Awesome intro, thanks dragon for setting it up.

TheFinalEmblem Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Ok, so you're already halfway there. Yeah, basically. My plan is to get everyone that I can, which means everyone except Lymle and Faize, to 100% in my current Galaxy run. Lymle will be at 98% due to the 2 Ethereal Queen BTs. I'll do an extra Earth Mode playthrough for those 2. I'll be in control of Faize through my entire Universe run and choose him over Arumat, obviously, so I can get him to 100%. I'll then do a Chaos mode run just for that trophy, then go back to Earth mode and go through that for Lymle's last 2 BTs. Gonna make sure to fight the Ethereal Queen in first form only and get both of them in 1 go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFinalEmblem Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Ok, that sounds complicated x_x. Or maybe I've been going at it for too long . Haha, it really isn't complicated once you actually do it, though some of the BTs are just either boring/grindy, like having Lymle die in battle X number of times, or with Bacchus, doing exact damage with up to 5 digit numbers, which is freaking insane IMO. I have a calculator to help calculate the attack you'd need to do certain damage, but it's still very variable, which is a big pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most I've seen so far is about 600 pages which is around 12,000 posts. So we still have quite some pages to go . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leenewbe Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 good luck to you all on your quest for this .

Senbon Kaguya Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) So I have actually started this game in the past and reading this has made me actually want to go back and try my hand at the platinum. I only finished the first boss battle so I'm in for a ride huh? I've been trying to knock out other games before I started this quest. I love the intros though.

Styx2319 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 This sounds really fun. It's a great game, I just stopped in the middle of it because I was drawn in by other games. Not sure if I'd be in it for the long haul, but it's still going to be interesting to see everyone playing for the plat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
