Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection

 

I'm not exaggerating when I say that getting the Crushing and Brutal difficulty trophies was some of the worst gaming experiences I've ever had. Brutal especially was completely ridiculous, it mostly just came down to pure luck if the RNG gods were gracious enough to let you continue. But they're done now so I can forget about them and move on.

DOOM 3

Difficulty 6/10

Enjoyment 8/10

 

I enjoy the DOOM franchise and this game is a great title. First time playing this on Playstation and it ran exceptionally well, considering how old the title is. This game was definitely made for PC though, having to R1 through weapons wasn't ideal.

 

All 3 campaigns had plenty to do, heaps of collectibles to miss and alot of enemies that seem to like sneaking up on you. 

 

Nightmare wasn't too bad, the enemy hitscan and bullet sponges got old though. Let's not mention Imps that seem to bend space-time to jump around corners, not sure what that was about.

 

I enjoyed the challenge, the story is quite decent and is refreshing to play one of the classics. I definitely recommend this game to others looking for a challenge.

I originally started this over 4 years ago, but didn't continue past the tutorial because I wasn't feeling it at the time. I suddenly got interested in it again recently, It is a pretty fun game, though a tad repetitive. It probably would've been more enjoyable with more people, but I didn't have that option. There are some 4 player badges, which you can get locally if you have four controllers. You will get 90% of the badges before you hit max rank, so some grinding will be involved. Still, not bad for what it was.

It's on PS Plus now, so that's how I got the final trophy. I couldn't get the final trophy on the PS3 because I don't have a Sixaxis compatible controller.

100% APB Reloaded

0.03% - Ultra Rare

 

I got the last Trophy over one hour ago and I am still in disbelief. After all, it took me 5 years and 2 weeks to get this extremely grinding 100%, which beats by a mile both the record for my longest Platinum (3 years and 8 months for Street Fighter X Tekken) and the former record for my longest 100% (3 years and 9 months for Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2).

 

When I got my Ps4 in 2017, the only game I got with it was Tekken 7, and so I was looking forward to know some new titles I may be interested in: some friends recommended this. APB Reloaded is F2P, MMO Open World game that kind of reminds of GTA, featuring criminals and enfoncer fighting each other for bragging rights. I had never heard of APB Reloaded before, and since I really wasn't into Trophy hunting back then, I didn't know what I was going to meet.

 

The Trophy list of APB Reloaded is an absolute nightmare: to summarize, it requires the player to complete 100 missions as a criminal, 100 as an enfoncer, to get a total of 10.000 kills, and to get several kills in odd, specific ways that are highly unlikely to recreate. And the ultimate irony is that there is a Trophy for playing the game for 24 hours, while it took me over 200... By boosting. The Trophy Guide giving this game a 9/10 and 400 hours to complete is no joke.

 

As I said, when I started Trophy hunting, I didn't know about lowering my completion percentage with just few Trophies, so I gave a look at the Trophy list of the game and I started going for the easiest one: running around for 50 km. I remember just running around the map without worrying about anything else, and eventually I got that: my first Trophy of the game, as well as my first ever Ultra Rare Trophy. This was on September 19, 2017.

 

Eventuaklly, when I realized what I had done, it was too late. The game is almost dead, the few people playing are try hards, and getting kills is extremely hard... And you need 10.000! I also realized I didn't really like the game and I gave up: for over two years, this shitty game stayed on my profile with that horrible 1% of completion percentage.

 

For some reason, in 2020, I decided to give the game a second chance and I realized it was very easy to pop another Trophy: the one for recovering health from being almost dead a total of 99 times. I cheaped on it and I got it by jumping out of a building 99 times, almost dying but surviving: finding a building of the right height was hard, as some were too short and gave me no damage, while others were too tall and jumping from it would result in death.

 

Getting this second Trophy gave me faith and I decided to start playing the game for real, to join the few try hards playing. And I got to say... I was wrong. The game is not bad at all. While working my way to the 100/100 missions Trophy, I played the game for 75 hours and I had a lot of fun. In the process, I also met here on PSN Profiles a player who wanted to boost all the Trophies with me: however, after only getting one (And it took a lot of hours), he gave up and he left me.

 

In the following months/years, I tried to arrange boosting sessions with my real life friends, but random players/try hards ruined our boosting every time and I gave up on this 100%. Until another player offered me his help to get all the Trophies together: at first, a real life friends of mine joined us, but since he doesn't car at all about Trophies, he gave up. Thankfully, we found another player, and for the past few months, almost every day, the three of us would kill each other to get the mirage of getting 10.000 kills. You have no idea how happy I felt when I got the last kill.

 

18 100% achievers out of 63.157 owners. 0.03%. Crypt of the Necrodancer who? I HAVE THE 100% APB RELOADED, BITCHES!

 

Special thanks to:

 

@Lausokii, not only for proposing me to finish this Trophy list together, but also for leaving me your turn today so I could get the Trophy. I won't forget it.

@Tashibana0000, for your great help during the sessions

That guy who helped me get the Carbeque Trophy but then left me: I'm still thankful to you

All of my real life friends who either helped me or tried to help me during the past 5 years to get this 100%, even through most of them won't read this post

Griftlands

 

A Deck-Building rogue-like form Klei - arguably the most prolific, successful and versatile genre-hopping developer currently in business - Griftlands once again shows off Klei's incredible ability to "Stanley Kubrick" their way through the games industry with almost preternatural aplomb, and Neo-from-the-Matrix level adaptability.

Anyone familiar with my checklist knows the respect and admiration I have for Klei - they are one of the only developers (alongside Supergiant,) who are able to genre-hop with virtually every game they make - making only one, or maybe two games within any single genre, yet often outdoing the efforts of other developers who work exclusively within that genre for decades.
They made one Action stealth game - Mark of the Ninja - and it was one of the best of that genre. 
They made one Survival game - Don't Starve (well, two if one includes Don't Starve Together,) - and it was one of the best of that genre.
They made one Turn-based strategy game - Invisible Inc - and it was not only one of the best of that genre, but also one of the best games of all time.

Griftlands is thier one Deck Builder... and while I haven't played as many games in that genre as I would like to, after my 80-odd hours with it, I am comfortable stating that it is a fantastic example within that genre.

Set in a fictional semi-wasteland in a far flung future, where multiple races co-exist is a Star Wars style melting pot, Griftlands sees three different characters take their own unique stories - played out over 4 or 5 in-game days in the eponymous Griftlands - with complicated and convoluted paths determined by a myriad of interdependent and interconnected variables as each of the characters struggles for survival - or dominance - in an unforgiving world. Both Combat, and adversarial conversation ("Negotiation") is played out via two different styles of card game, each with their own set of mechanics and decks to build, and each run is varied by a plethora of random events, choices, successes or failures, and narrative interactions with NPCs. 

Both card games are unique and interesting, and actually share little DNA between the two. More than almost any other game, Griftlands feels like one where two distinct and separate games are being learned, and excelling at one does not necessarily correlate to success in the other. 

The combat one is pretty analogous to Slay the Spire, with battles playing out based on various buffs, debuffs, different types of damage, and is visually similar - with HP bars, characters facing off left and right, and simple symbology used to denote status, and future moves / impacts.

The diplomacy one, on the other hand, is more unique, feeling like something of a "split-the-difference" between Slay the Spire style combat, and Magic: The Gathering / Inscryption style 1-on-1 interface. 
The characters face off, with their "core" argument forming the frontal attack of an armada of smaller "points" and "side-arguments" that orbit around the outer of two circles, with the inner one indicating future moves. Jibes and diplomatic points can attack either the opponents core argument, or any of their side arguments, (buffs,) but debuffs can also be injected into their "argument circle", seeds of doubt, or paradoxes etc. which constantly reduce their resolve or curtail the strength of their own arguments.

The balance between those two games is clever and interesting. Successfully winning a combat encounter restores some "Resolve" (the conversational equivalent of HP), while a successful negotiation restores some HP, and often results in having a new companion to fight in the next combat encounter. 
When selecting "missions" to embark on, or while engaging in encounters, the players choices will affect which game is played - obviously, a more diplomatic playthrough will result in far more instances of Negotiation battles, whereas the more combat-focussed, "direct" route is always available as a fallback (loosing all "resolve" - the conversational equivalent of HP - does not result in a game over, but rather the inability to convince the opponent, and generally the requirement for combat,) but of course, a less diplomatic run can go straight to battle, ignoring the chance for nuance!
It is up to the player to determine which are they wish to engage with at any time, though no playthrough will ever allow one game type to be played exclusively... and building a good deck in either requires engagement with it, so each individual encounter must be weighed - the possibility of success and reward, vs. the possibility of failure, and set-back.

 

The game features 3 playable characters, all with their own narrative stories, areas of the Griftlands to explore, decks, unique mechanics, and specific build options for both games, and each feels genuinely different and interesting.

The first character to be played - Sal - is a recently released bounty hunter, and is probably the most mechanically "pure" (there is a reason she is the one unlocked from the get-go) - though there is still significant scope for build variety. Her Negotiation deck is primarily based around selecting between "Diplomacy" or "Intimidation", and her combat deck around either Improvising cards or causing status effects. Her story is essentially about making her way in the Griftlands, by aligning with one faction or the other... the Admiralty, (essentially cops,) or the Spree (the robbers and thieves.)

The second - Rook - a retires Admiralty Captain - is based more around gambling. His decks include coin-flipping mechanics and are based more around bluffing, trickery and smarts, and his narrative is more about faking alignments and double-crossing - playing both sides of the factions of the Griftlands against one another, and flipping back and forth.

The third character - Smith - the drunkard heir to a wealthy dynasty, disowned by his family - is easily the most mechanically complex character, analogous in some ways to The Watcher character in Slay the Spire, in the sense that while initially the most difficult character to play, has arguably the most scope for supreme power when played effectively. 
His decks are all based around drinking (indeed, he has additional mechanics involving "Drinking" and "Empty Bottles" laid over the already complex mechanics of the game, and these add additional wrinkles and nuances to his story of wanton debauchery and unpredictability.

 

The way the game is laid out structurally, and presented to the player is interesting, in the sense that while certainly a rogue-like, the path through it is far more reminiscent of, say, Pyre, than Slay the Spire. Certainly the basic "spine" of the game - the route taken through the campaign - is, under the hood, similar to the Slay the Spire / Curse of the Dead Gods style rogue-like, with the constant progression also subject to a certain element of RNG, allowing different choices to the player about which avenue seems best for them at any given juncture, but the actual presentation of that is much closer to Pyre. The area of the Griftlands that the specific character's journey takes place in (this is different for each of the three protagonists,) is presented as a static map, around which the different possible choices of encounter / mission / event will present as icons, and the player chooses which to do from that map. 
That gives a slightly more involving, engaging element to the game from a narrative perspective than something like Slay the Spire does. While the result is much the same, the feeling of being genuinely "within" the world, and having true agency in it is added to by actually feeling like one is choosing not only their manner of progression, but where they go within it.

 

There are a huge number of NPC characters - around 50 I believe - and each one has specific relationships with the protagonist in any given run. Every character, from shopkeepers, to bodyguards, to workers and barflies, can, at any given moment, either love, like, dislike, hate or be neutral to the player, and each encounter  - and choice within that encounter - will have an effect on that status... and those statuses are of significant impact.
A shopkeeper who likes you will charge less for their wares. One who dislikes you, will charge more. Every NPC has a "Social Boon" - a special buff you get as long as they love you (which could be anything from extra turns at the start of battle, to cheaper healing, to increased health for companions etc)... however, each also has a "Social Bane", applied if they hate you. Managing these is of great importance - even with the best deck in the world, completing a run with multiple compounding Social Banes can be very tricky!

The NPC relationships are not in a vacuum either - NPCs have affiliation with one another. Killing someone (as opposed to, say, accepting their surrender,) can be beneficial - it may result in useful single-use cards, for example - however, if it is done in a crowded area, you may gain a reputation... resulting in unwanted detrimental cards being added to your deck... and other people hating you. Kill someone from a specific faction, and their comrades might Hate you. Kill someone's friend, and they might hate you.
If someone dislikes or hates you, and their Social Bane is very detrimental, what to do? 
You could try and win them over by buying a drink... but if you don't have the cash, that's not an option. 
You could kill them, (a social bane is removed if the person causing it dies,)... but doing so might result in other people hating you. 
You could enter a "Negotiation" battle with them, to try and provoke them into attacking you first (killing someone after they draw first will not result in bad reputation,)... but they are citizens of the rough, tough Griftlands. They know what you're doing. That negotiation will be tough to pull off!

These NPC relationships are the games biggest success. They work really well, make genuine differences to the game mechanically from run to run, and are a constant source of interesting variety in both the mechanical game, and the narrative. I completed around 60 runs of the game across my time with it, including at least 30 with my "main" character (Sal,) and very rarely did a run feel much the same as a previous one.

The game also features both "Story" and "Brawl" modes - Brawl mode being essentially a more bare-bones, but also more "flattened", rigidly defined version of the story mode. There is still some of the same considerations along the journey, but Brawl mode removes the most flexible narrative elements, (and the map,) and feels more of a "level playing field" for competitive play. The number of encounters is fixed, and some of the more RNG elements (optional side elements, skippable encounters etc) are curtailed.

The art-style of Griftlands is really fantastic - reminiscent of late 80's /early 90's cartoons, or even Dragon's Lair / Space Ace style Laserdisc games, with a really cool mix of alien races and enemy designs. The hand-drawn look of all the characters gives them significant personality, and the environments, characters and artistic details really flesh out and colourise the world of the Griftlands with style. It could be very easy to imagine an entire ongoing animated series being created within the game world, and fitting in perfectly in the Saturday Morning Cartoon landscape of the early 90's.
While the game is not heavily animated, there is a significant step up from something like Slay the Spire in battle - characters move and make their unique attacks directly to the opposing players, and grimace or block as they are themselves attacked, meaning the visual palate of the combat (and the negotiations) is more akin to JRPG turn-based combat than the Slay the Spire-esque purely indicative style.

Audio is good - music is fine, occasionally veering into very good territory, if never truly stand-out. There is voice work of a sort, though it is not real voice work, but rather Star-Fox / The Sims style simlish. The game posits that the Griftlands have their own language, and so the spoken words are in a made-up language, with the translations being read by the player.

Overall Griftlands is a heck of a game. Two separate smart, very well worked out, genuinely variable and fun card games working well in tandem, and implemented extremely well in the wrapper of a fun and engaging set of stories, in a visually distinct and artistic landscape.
It is a complicated game at first - and one can take some time to learn the nuance of - but the rewards for doing so is a rich, interesting and endlessly repeatable rogue-like that hits its tone perfectly, and always allows room for experimentation, variation... and fun.

100% Bentley's Hackpack

14.14% - Rare

 

A little known spinoff of the Sly Cooper series, only available digitally. In this game, you control Bentley in three different minigames, where you have to complete the levels and satisfy five tasks to obtain coins. One of the three minigames is very tricky because you control Bentley by moving the Vita/the Dualshock rather than using the left stick, making some coins very hard to obtain: even completing some levels is somehow challenging. Thankfully, to obtain the 100%, you are only required to get 311 coins, not all of them. Overall, the game is very funny and cheap, I recommend it.

Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom - Tale of a Timeless Tome

 

 

Difficulty: 7/10

Enjoyment: 5/10

 

"Worst DLC ever" is something most people who've managed to complete this DLC would say. Am I going to say the same? Maybe, but before I get to that, let me say the good things.

 

First of all, all the new story-related side quests were honestly really good. Not only does each character get a moment to shine, but the game also plays music from the previous game. Hearing those tunes put a big smile on my face.

 

Onto the reason why this DLC is kind of a double-edged sword. The Solosseum. Anyone who's managed to get 100% from this knows more or less what I'm going to say. There are two reasons that made the Solosseum Challenges a horrible experience for me.

 

- Horrible RNG when it comes to farming certain materials. In order for you to even have a chance against obtaining the S rank in many of the Challenges, you need to craft certain equipment. The problem is that you can't buy/find those anywhere. Instead, the only way to obtain those is to complete the Challenges and hope that you get the materials you need. Sometimes I got them after 2-3 attempts, while sometimes I could play the same Challenge ten times in a row and still get nothing. That's how bad it is. 

 

- Horde of enemies. In many of the Challenges, you have to fight a horde of enemies before you can proceed to the next battle. I wouldn't mind this so much, except that this happens in so many Challenges that it becomes extremely boring and repetitive. Enough said.

 

Other than that, I don't have much else to say. Great game, but they could've designed the final DLC better. Glad I finally got it done.

Fort Defense (PS4)

this one was pretty decent fun, but I hate how designed for mtx these games are. This one wasn’t hard though so it didn’t much matter.

 

Fort Defense: North Menace (PS4)

 

This one was such ass. I played it on Vita and apparently gave it a 2/10 on pst. On PS4 it feels so impossible. I had to buy barrels and yes I’m ashamed to reward this shitty developer with more money just to get 100%. I’ll never touch another one of their fucking games ever in my life. 
 

I just couldn’t make it through level 10, I’d always end up fucking my streak up and needing to start over for that one trophy. It was either spend hundreds of hours, not do it, or just be shameful. And I took the shameful way out.
