Hope your parents are doing better soon and work settles down. I hope so too. My mom's doing a bit better but I want to keep a closer eye on her since she just got released from the hospital. As for work, it gets busy in the run up to Christmas and then there's the lull after new year's, so I'm hoping to get back to being active this coming January.

However, if you're not used to platformers, this game might not be so easy... I'm just OK at them and was worried that I might not be able to do the 6-minute speedrun. Just took practice and patience though. So it's not the typical easy game as you do need a little skill... and the art is pretty nice too Sounds a lot better than most of the super short ones. 5 minutes ago, cerafinn said: I hope so too.

Even a little bit's better, and not being stuck in the hospital should be more relaxing for her. Makes sense, still hope it won't be too much to deal with along with everything else.

Dessane Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Everyone should be up to date in time for Sy to do the major update. Let me know if I've missed you. Life is strange plat image doesn't work on this site for some reason so you get a slightly larger image. For this month I played Assassin's Creed 2. It was always one of my favorites and I rememebr why, it was a lot of fun and has aged quite well 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SyIaris Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Rollover to the new theme! Thanks to @Kevvik for the winning entry. You still have a bit of time to finish up an entry for October, and November's will be accepted starting now. November's Theme: Sequelitis! Play a game which is a follow-up in a series. Reboots qualify as later entries not starters HC: the game must be at least the 5th entry in the series. This month's options are wide open - go nuts! Sequels can be a chance for a company to refine a successful game and may be even better than earlier entries, so don't be afraid to dive in! Ex: Infamous 2, Witcher 3, Persona 4 Golden HC ex: Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Soul Calibur V, Ratchet and Clank: Into the Nexus *Another particularly notable option: nearly every Final Fantasy game that has a trophy list qualifies for the HC challenge. Don't have an October game for you, if you'd like to submit one - the old theme's in the first post. @BrutalLooter @Fitzquaid @Jesaya815 @KawaiiSlowpoke @Kent10201 @PermaFox @Psy-Tychist @scarishbal @ShogunCroCop @vin_rob @Yomako01 11 hours ago, Dessane said: Everyone should be up to date in time for Sy to do the major update.

I think Life is Strange is one of those fun whitetransparent image on the forum's white background deals. Should be good now. Nice game choice, too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vin_rob Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 @SyIaris sorry, not sure why I'm late last view months... Ok, I'm gonna post my games for the month... I got the platinum in Shadow of the tomb raider. Hardcore, there are trophy's you need to be stealthy... Part of another event: This game is also part of the gaming by numbers I also got the platinum for Beyond Two Souls. Hardcore, again there are some trophy's you need to be stealthy for (like finish part x without being seen) Part of another event: This game was part of a Kill Your Completion Event and the gaming by numbers When I actually decided to not go back to this game for the multiplayer trophies.. @MarkusT1992 sort of "persuaded" me. So I got the platinum for Tomb Raider: Definite Edition as well this month... Hardcore, like the other tomb raider, there are trophy's you need to be stealthy for like kill x amount of enemy's Part of another event: "What the hell is that still doing there" and again the gaming by numbers Over a year: It took me 2 years and 6 months. You could also say this game would have been on my backlog way longer if it wasn't for the event and of course @MarkusT1992 And then a game I didn't get a platinum in Journey, I did get all the trophies there just isn't a platinum for this game. Hardcore?: There is a trophy you can't be seen in an area. over a year: 2 years and a month part of another event: "What the hell is that still doing there" and again the gaming by numbers But then yet again another platinum for Dishonored the Definitive Edition Hardcore: There is a trophy you can't be seen in the entire game... And there are more over a year: 1 year and 4 months part of another event: "What the hell is that still doing there" and again the gaming by numbers but also a Kill Your Completion event. I think this is what I did most of my month lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkusT1992 Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 (edited) I got another game for this month done with Spy Chameleon Hardcore: You needn't be seen, otherwise it's start over Other Event: It counts for the Gaming by numbers event. I try to get Journey finished but I still need some people for the last trophy. End of month stats: Platinum trophies: +22 100% completed: +4 Completion: +5.81% Edited October 31, 2018 by MarkusT1992 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SyIaris Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 To anyone that voted in the polls earlier: you might make sure your name's in there.

Impressive progress! Should have you updated for all of those and the four a month. Let me know if you'd like icons swapped around, you certainly added enough options. Yep, trophy requiring it counts for Journey even if the area you get it in doesn't otherwise. 1 hour ago, MarkusT1992 said: I got another game for this month done with Spy Chameleon Hardcore: You needn't be seen, otherwise it's start over Other Event: It counts for the Gaming by numbers event.

Thanks for the offer but I only need like 4 more to get to 10. I'll try to get the remaining people tomorrow. I doubt that I will find somebody in the middle of the night.

Kevvik Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 OK, end month stats.. Finished 6 platinums but only The Talos Principle qualified for the theme this month as I stated in my update a few days ago Other than that were a bunch of misc plats: Sound Shapes, Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale, Soul Calibur V, Adventure Time and Word Sudoku by POWGI. Monthly Plats: +6 100%: NC Completion rate: +1.32% Event Plats: 135 (+32 for event) 100%: 48 (+4 for event) Completion rate: 81.89% (+2.88% for event) Time to Kill My Completion again so we'll see how far that drops this month. Got Ratchet and Clank Full Frontal Assault in the breech right now so hopefully we can knock off the theme (and HC) early this month. Been side working on Hitman: Absolution as well so we'll see how things go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yomako01 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 (edited) Finished Punchline which should count towards October's event. It's also counts towards the numbers event Edited November 1, 2018 by Yomako01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitzquaid Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 The last few months have not been great for me, gaming-wise - things have been eventful with work and my family (nothing serious), and I just haven't made time to focus on games. Apologies for the disappearing act. I did finish a couple of short games in October (428 Shibuya Scramble and Overcooked), but neither of them could be said to have a stealth system by any stretch of the imagination! Could I use a skip for the month please, if possible? This month's theme should be easier - I started Shenmue 2 and have been meaning to get back to it.

If you still count it, it qualifies for the following challenges Hardcore: Like @vin_rob said there's a trophy for not being seen by the Guardians in one level 4 in a month: Far Cry Primal, Assassin's Creed: Revelations, Spy Chameleon and Journey.

ShogunCroCop Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 @SyIaris I don't have an October game. I was playing AC Origins but that does not fit with the October theme . But for November, I am looking to complete AC Origins. But here are my stat changes: Platinum trophies: +9 100% completed: +4 Completion: +2.99% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starcrunch061 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 (edited) For anyone in the Warriors Let's Play, sequelitis is a perfect companion, since the DW titles start at 6(!) on the PS3 and 8(!!) on the PS4. Lots of possibilities! Edited November 1, 2018 by starcrunch061 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SyIaris Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Holding off on updates for the moment since I can't seem to get images to work and really don't want to risk losing them all... Finished Black Mirror, which turned out to be the reboot of a trilogy and gets me on the list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eigen-space Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Alrighty... just finished up my first game for this month: Syberia 3 As you can probably tell by the title, it's the third Syberia game, so it counts for the theme, but not the HC requirement. This also counts for the Other Event challenge as it's one of the games I'm playing for Kill Your Completion. Also-- for anyone scoping out games for the upcoming December theme... this would fit with the Snow option.... but honestly, don't waste your time with this game. It's a buggy mess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SyIaris Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Okay, updates should be all set. Nice job, guys! No shame in holding off a month, either. Either https everywhere or privacy badger started blocking my images. Those aren't the usual troublemakers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShogunCroCop Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 (edited) Got Assassin's Creed: Origins plat. Going for 100% now. This fits the November theme, as well as Hardcore. So now I'll ply Infamous: Second Son, which is also a sequel game. This is to satisify the challenge of playing a game for this event that I otherwise would have never played.

Fitzquaid Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 It turns out that I was coming up on my 40th platinum which I'd wanted to be the Witcher 3, to make up for my previous milestones being completely random. So, after a speedy 3 years and 1 month, that's my sequel for November. Stat changes during the year: Platinum trophies: +19 100% completed: +5 Completion: +5.31% 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starcrunch061 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 (edited) So, it doesn't get much more hardcore than this: Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires Of course, Dynasty Warriors 8 immediately passes the hardcore requirement. But Empires titles are always the third in the game sequence. And this is the 5th Empires title. God - Koei really does love its rinse-and-repeat sequels. I'll post my stats soon, but I have to get to work now. Also, I'm currently working on another sequel (this time, it's Dynasty Warriors 7: Xtreme Legends, which again is a mess of sequels rolled into one).

ShogunCroCop Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 100% on Assassin's Creed: Origins. This fulfills the HC requirement as well. Moving on to RDR II, and InFamous: Second Son. I might have one of them done by the end of the month. Not both. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
