DishwasherSafe Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I've got all the platinum trophies in a particular series and I'd like to find out who/how many others have as well. Is there a way I can pull the list of platinum achievers from here for various games so I can do some Excel magic and find my fellow Tales devotees?

Satoshi Ookami Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Check the 100% list on the trophy page That only gives him first, fastest and latest achievers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DishwasherSafe Posted September 16, 2015 Author Share Posted September 16, 2015 Check the 100% list on the trophy page That only gives the top 50 of each category. I'm looking at at least one game with 3000+ people on that list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DishwasherSafe Posted September 16, 2015 Author Share Posted September 16, 2015 Then it is in the leaderboards Then I have to sift through thousands of names. My point is that I want to pull the data from that list so I can use it in a spreadsheet and find the number of people in common on all the lists. If I can't do that, then to do what I want I would have to go through every single name on all five lists and see if I can find the commons ones myself which is both tedious and far less reliable.

Mog Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Well that's... unusual, but like zorry777 said, there's the leaderboard. You'd have to go page by page and check each person's profile (each page has 50 people) to see if they did plat each game of a series. Not sure why you'd want to do that though, it's tedious and may be considered stalker-ish. If you want to meet people who plat'd every game of a series you like, why not make a thread about it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MesopithecusUK Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 For what purposes are you wishing to extrapolate the data for? I understand you wish to find the commonality, but then what? As far as I know, there is no function that allows you to export the data from here. It would be a very manual driven process of popping on to each leader board and copying the data onto a spreadsheet and manipulating that into a workable format. If there is a particular series that you are interested in, why not start a topic in the forums and see who responds? There is something similar set up for Hyper Dimension fans.

damon8r351 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 This is a good topic, because I too always wanted to know how to do this. Nothing major, some of you might fit a description, is all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheYuriG Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I think I know a way to partially automate the process, but I'm unsure if I should post it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScutumMagister Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Also, their series list in general is kind of screwy. For example, Sonic and Sonic Racing are two different series, and only one platform of Sonic All Stars Racing Transformed is counted. But it's probably better than nothing. It only counts 1 platform per title by default but there's a setting that changes that in "Site Settings" and then the "Series" section. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really plan to do anything with it, i just want to know how many other people have all 5 Tales platinums. Some of them the total number of platinum achievers is below 200, I can't think there would be that many that had all of them. I'd just like to know exactly how low that number is.

Shadiochao Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 (edited) It only counts 1 platform per title by default but there's a setting that changes that in "Site Settings" and then the "Series" section. Oh, I see, I never noticed that. Thanks Although in Sonic Racing's case, it still only shows the PS3 version after changing the setting. Unless I just need to wait for it to kick in EDIT: It seems my original post disappeared for some reason. Just so people know what we're talking about, I originally linked to a site which does keep track of series completion. There's nothing in the rules which states that is not allowed, so I've updated this post to clear up any confusion.

ScutumMagister Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 @OP - That seems like an odd request. I'm assuming you only want to find games in common amongst people on this site since the site probably only tracks around 10% of PlayStation gamers (just based on PS4 sales figures compared to gamers tracked here). Oh, I see, I never noticed that. ThanksAlthough in Sonic Racing's case, it still only shows the PS3 version after changing the setting. Unless I just need to wait for it to kick in You're welcome. From what I understand of that they had to do it all by hand so some might have slipped through the cracks. I just posted about that one in a topic over on TT so hopefully they'll get it added soon.

Keep in mind thats just on this site. Not all psn ids are tracked unless they are added. Just start a thread or something. Tons of tales fans frequent the forums. Theres even a group that were doing Vesperia in japanese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is the remaining one? =D Graces, Xillia, Xillia 2, Symphonia, Symphonia DotNW, Hearts R. I see 6 (And I'm not even counting Zestria, Vesperia and Innocence =D) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madbuk Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 I don't have a Vita, I'm just talking the 5 on PS3. There are 8 PS3 Tales lists This is where the problem with tracking a series comes in. To me, a series isn't complete if you haven't gotten every list completed - and, well, there are double lists. And then you have game series like Lara Croft that people don't bother referring to as a separate series and instead consider them Tomb Raider games (even though they really aren't.) And then you have one-off titles like Bentley's Hackpack. Is that a part of the Sly series? Things like grouping games together into a series is pretty subjective. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
