This game is in the top ten popular games this week.

So, I've been seeing this game a lot on people's profiles because of it's easily obtainable platinum that you can get in about ten minutes (you can't tell me people are buying this because of it's story, or gameplay.)

That's fine if you want to treat yourself to an easy platinum every now and then, but this shit looks like a bad flash game you could find on MaxGames.com or something, and it's pathetic. I do not want the PSN store to turn into Steam in that there's virtually no quality control. Seeing the staggering amount of people supporting this game worries me just a bit. If developers see that people will pay money on a piece of shit game as long as it has easy trophies, then hell, why try?? There are so many better games out there don't get nearly as much attention as this one. Personally, I don't feel that it deserves it.

Everyone has that freedom of choice to play whatever they want, and that's great. However, if you choose to buy a bad game just because it has an easy platinum I can't help but question it. It's like if a group of freshmen beat a bunch of kindergarteners in Football. There's no challenge at all and they get a trophy for it, and put it on display. Wow...great job. It's a ridiculous illustration, I know, but that's how I see it.

People aren't accomplishing anything by getting this platinum and it's kind of sad,  because I know they can't be enjoying this game.

 

I'm not telling you not to play this game, I'm just ranting about how I feel. Maybe I'm just not seeing something here. 

What do you guys think? Is it actually really fun? (I haven't heard from anyone that's it's actually good.) And do you think this'll set a trend for games that'll come out in the future?

I played it, its terrible it missed quality control 

[damage_6-9]

Personally, I did it for pure, braindead trophy whoredom.... 2 plats for 5 bucks?

Why the hell not... you have to accept that there are bad games (and also completely shit ones like this) as well as good ones, not every game can be AAA.

 

     I can see an issue if games like this become too prevalent, but overall it's the better games in the lead atm.

[Abysm_Nucleus]

I get your point. Like you say 'Everyone has that freedom of choice to play whatever they want'

 

You also have the freedom of choice to buy whatever you want. Even if PSN Store turns into Steam you won't get affected by it anyway. I will not question your words as they are only your opinions and I totally respect that However; saying that developers may not care about the new games in the future as long as they add easy trophies thinking that everybody will buy it anyway is totally WRONG. There are some developers putting great efforts into their job to create the best, there are also small studios or group of people try to target some buyers in the market such as trophy hunters. Having diversity among developers won't really affect the games that will come out in the future as all studios have some targets before starting to make their new games. You will never see a game like this from Naughty Dog for instance or any other developer whose only aim is to enrich the video game industry.

This game is evident that as a community we are true trophy sluts.

[Sir_Bee]

Could it not be argued that this is already happening?  Even within the AAA market, many developers don't care about the game they are putting out, they only care about the bottom line.  That is why we have games full of microtransactions, and have pay to win mechanics showing up in full price games.  The quality of many games (not all as I know there are still awesome games coming out) has slipped, and been slipping for a while now.  The have become less about games, and more about devices to reach into your wallet.

 

So I guess my question is, why is this bad for you?  High quality games still exist, so you will still get the games you want, so why does the fact that these games exist affect you?

[Deluziion90]

I currently have 84 platinums.

I want 99 platinums before Dark Souls remastered gets released in May so I can get a milestone which im proud of.

This piece of shit game makes the journey to 99 a bit easier and thats the only reason I bought it.

I'm not throwing Japanese novels in here as I personally dont want those on my profile

 

And I fully agree on all the above you mentioned especially about the steam part. I quit pc gaming because I fell in love with Playstation last year and haven't looked back on pc gaming but I do hope it doesnt turn into too much trash without any quality control.

So this game went completely under my radar .... honestly glad it did, because all the threads sparked my curiosity and I looked it up on youtube ... dear. god. ?

 

This reminds me of that "Life of a black Tiger" game ... truly games like these prove that whatever sort of quality control Sony has in place certainly ain't perfect ..

I bought it for the easy plat. I dont think the store will be flooded with these type of games though, as only a minority of gamers is interested in Trophies.

I do agree the game is shit (it looked better on the pics).

[KamakuraHero]

I have seen a lot of threads like this these days and honestly i just can't understand the logic behind. Whenever a "low quality" "easy game" is up people questioned it's whole existence, why it has a platinum etc. Well i think it's wrong, i say if you like a game buy it if not just move on. We need the mayos as much as the tlous

I always buy crap games, I don't know what it is but I love to play them. I find them so fun because of how bad they are.
