Toogie53 Posted February 1, 2018 Author Share Posted February 1, 2018 (edited) Haha. I wouldn't have thought Mortal Kombat was Irish but @Dr_Mayus makes solid points. Edited February 1, 2018 by Toogie53 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xMissFantasy Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I'm probably going to change out Monster Hunter (due to the huge grind) and Uncharted 4 (I want to thoroughly enjoy it and not rush.) I'll figure out what to replace them with tomorrow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ_Mystery Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 (edited) Since Toogie13 hasn't announced it, the event has officially begun about two hours ago so I'll be posting my progress on the games I am doing on this thread.

monkeydluffy512 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Hey @Toogie53, here is my list Companionship- Assassin's Creed Unity 6% Partnership- Uncharted 4 0% Friendship- Dragon Age: Inquisition 73% Relationship- Rime 0% Irish- The little Acre 0% I may change it up a bit as I go through the list, but I believe I should be able to have a good deal of fun with this lineup. And are we doing weekly updates on Fridays? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to update daily, but I don't think Rizzle expects you to update until you get your platinums, so you can update as often as you want. Starting out on LEGO The Hobbit but I had to get my cat's nails trimmed so I was out for a while. Would have starter six hours ago but I was feeling crummy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hope Rizzle doesn't expect you to update considering Toogie runs the event . As for me, I'll be updating weekly whether I obtained a plat or not like the last event. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to do mine on Fridays because it kind of helps me plan out what I want to tackle on the weekend at the same time. Weekends are usually important times for me to progress because I'm not always up for tackling a stressful trophy during the work week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you post updates, I encourage you to talk more about how you feel about the game. What challenges you are tackling and what you are finding enjoyable etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donut_plz Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 (edited) 35% complete Cracked into my backlog and first game for this event with Never Alone last night (mostly this morning as it was after 11pm and I went to bed around 2am) Got a good part of it done with only getting stuck once with what to do in the polar bear den. Game play somewhat reminds me of Valiant Hearts and I appreciate the simplicity of the mechanics and the focus on story telling.

Game play really reminds me of Valiant Hearts and I appreciate the simplicity of the mechanics and the focus on story telling. I remember getting stuck with the polar bear for a few minutes; but, I think that was the only thing I found that wasn't instantly obvious. I think the game play was lacking some kind of challenge. So I came out of it thinking the game was just OK. It doesn't have a big price tag so I think its a good value for its cost still. I actually enjoyed the documentary bits that you unlock in this game. I thought it was cool how involved that community was in bringing the game to life. It's a story you only would have heard if your father had heard it from his father, who had heard it from his father etc. in the oral tradition. I also remember seeing a clip with them all gathered around when the game was finished to watch it as a community. It definitely felt like a passion project from a game developer. When you compare it to the corporate shenanigans going on in AAA devs, it really is nice to play a game with some heart.

xMissFantasy Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Too.. many.. games.. I decided I'm going to switch up/around my list. 1. Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 0% 2. Psycho-Pass Mandatory Happiness 0% 3. Life is Strange 0% 4. Wheels of Aurelia 0% 5. The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 0% Hope to get them all done. I've been playing Monster Hunter non-stop since I picked it up and have already sunk 60+ hours in.. Feels like I haven't made a dent! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donut_plz Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 @Toogie53 Sums up exactly my thoughts on the game so far. Honestly cant recall if I bought it before it was a PS+ giveaway or not but I'll likely pick up the Fox Tales DLC for a the couple bucks it is and finish that as well. Its worth a few bucks for sure. @xMissFantasy Nice list. I can understand removing Monster Hunter as it could take the whole 6 weeks just for that one.

xMissFantasy Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 @donut_plz I think Never Alone was free at some point (could be wrong lol.) I paid for it and the dlc and it was worth it. Really good heart felt indie. Yeah.. Monster Hunter is going to take forever. Really enjoying it though but I opted for games I can finish in a day or two (depending on how much MH I play with the boyfriend.) Plus, my hours at work are constantly all over the place so that has to be compensated as well. Everyone has decent lists! I wish you all good luck on finishing them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weekends are usually important times for me to progress because I'm not always up for tackling a stressful trophy during the work week. I guess it depends on how long it takes to get the platinums. For my list, it's really easy to get the platinums so I will probably be finished with my list before the middle of February. Considering which: Quote LEGO The Hobbit: 0% -> 17% Ratchet and Clank: 0% Jak & Daxter: The Precursor Legacy: 0% Deponia: 0% -> 100% Goosebumps the Game: 0% Yes, I got one of the games completed in the first day! Used this video guide to get all the trophies. The reason I decided on Deponia was because of the sort of romantic tension between Rufus and Goal(because Goal was going to marry someone else who was actually planning to help the Organon destroy Deponia)... and also because the sequel to the game, Chaos in Deponia, was released a while ago so I am assured the company will port all the remaining parts of this series to PS4 in due time. I could have gone for The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 for Relationship as well because of the romantic troubles between Princess Ivo and Nate but there are a couple of trophies involving RNG in mini-games that I really do not like. Also started my Companionship game with getting 2/3 of the story levels finished. Will be spreading out the story progress a bit to keep sane, as LEGO game stories take a while to digest.

ShogunCroCop Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 My bonus game will be Mount & Blade: Warband. It has a partial setting in Ireland, and came up on the Wiki page for games set in Ireland. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toogie53 Posted February 2, 2018 Author Share Posted February 2, 2018 Friday Update! Hola! We're only one day into the event so I don't have a lot of progress to report. I started on what will likely be my shortest game, Journey! I grabbed all the collectibles and I thought I did all the chapter specific trophies but I missed one because chapter three unexpectedly had two. Despite lots of chiming and sitting, neither of my two companions wanted to hang out and meditate for twenty seconds. Also, my last companion quit right before the very end and we didn't cross over together either. I now have a second PS4, so I tried to get my daughter to get matched up with me but the game didn't cooperate. I sat alone by the bridge for a while and she did too. I'm open to trying boosting sessions for this game with you all, but I'm wondering if it will be harder than it should be to get partnered up in-game.

You have a quick list but most of those are pretty fun games. I didn't enjoy Goosebumps much when I played it. I was hoping for more nostalgia but it just ended up feeling like it was made for a different demographic and was way too young for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
