Popular Post Terminus124 Posted December 15, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 15, 2018 (edited) I know there are already some threads about this but for the sake of people only now coming into the game I thought it would be better to post whole new thread so nobody needs to read 30+ comments. Fix comes from statman on Playstationtrophies.org. As far as I know he's the first one who commented on it directly under The Road Less Traveled trophy's description. Here's the solution: If you glitch, try replaying the chapter Child's Play a few times on hard. I managed to get the trophy to pop at the end of my second replay of the chapter! I can confirm this works as well as other people from the site. I returned to the game and it popped few seconds after I finished the chapter. When I played I first completed the whole game on easy, getting most of the trophies (some still glitched but repeating chapters did it) and then I went for hard playthrough on new save file. The trophy glitched on me and I deleted the game, cursing it and Quantic Dream. Now I installed it again, thinking I give it another try but first went on forums to see if anything had changed. And it did. The game probably doesn't recognize you've finished the chapter on hard. So my recommendation is to finish the whole game on hard and then repeat Child's Play chapter. I didn't do it in one sitting or anything crazy like that as some people here recommend. I also did the worst ending so I wouldn't have to sit through more crazy QTEs. You can close the game without fear that this one would glitch providing you repeat the chapter again. Hope this helps someone. ?

LukaLaurent Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 A new thread is a great idea. Statman here, btw. I got my info from Aressus on playstationtrophies.org, and simply reposted (he stumbled upon the info elsewhere, it seems), and commented on the trophy page, as I love spreading info on workarounds for buggy trophies! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon88_il Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) Great to hear, thanks man! I've been postponing this game for ages because I heard it was buggy. Hopefully I can now try to plat it with less worries... Edited January 12, 2019 by jon88_il Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricos_90 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Hi guys, I'm having the same problem. I finished the game on hard mode but no trophy, I also tried to replay the chapter you suggested but nothing, do you have any other suggestions?

Ken_sent_me Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 So, how is the strategy for this glitched trophy? I have finished the game on hard (my 2nd playthrough), I succeeded Spoiler killing the Oracle, but failed against the soldiers and the AI dude. Should I just replay the "child's play" chapter over and over? Does it matter if one fail the chapter (get caught by the guards), or do I have to finish it without being spotted? And when the chapter is over, will the trophy popup going in to the next chapter that starts directly with the oracle being questioned, or should I play through that chapter as well, or just quit and reload the childs play chapter over and over and over again?

Ken_sent_me Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Can someone confirm if the only way to get the last trophy "The Road Less Traveled" (Complete every chapter on Hard difficulty), is to actually complete every chapter successfully, that meaning, winning the boxing game, winning the idiotic basket ball game, shooting range successfully etc? When I play the game I have just ignored these chapters and loose on purpose. Much appreciated for any answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even deleted the game, all my saves and started the game with one profile (set to hard). Stil, no cigar. This game is terrible...still fun to play.

BladeSpain Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Hi! I recently bought the “new” 15th anniversary version and after finishing it in hard difficult still have the trophy bug. Six years later, new edition and they still don't fix it! I'm terribly angry. ? Any recommendation? Repeating the Childs Play level does not work for me. thanks!

Ken_sent_me Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Hi everyone, I have been trying to replay the Child's play chapter so many times now I have lost the count. The trophy (The Road Less Traveled) will just not pop up for me. I gave up and left the game for a month or so. Recently I got myself a PS5 and switched machine from PS4 to PS5, and for fun I thought I would give the chapter a try again. Just for, you know, see if it could work. I loaded my chapter (transferred saves from ps4 to ps5), started my save game and loaded up the chapter. Played it, finished it and the trophy pops! I finally got it and the platinum is in my hand! I don't know if this has to do with playing the game on a clean state on my PS5 or if it would have worked on my PS4, but with all my failed attempts on my PS 4 I doubt it. Perhaps a solution could be for users who struggle, to do a complete factory reset of your PS4 and then try again, or, a more extreme solution, get a PS5? ;-) Just wanted to share my story. I have had so many sleepless night over this glitched trophy...(not really, but it annoyed the h*ll out of me). Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers. i've been in the same boat and had the same thought, but unfortunately playing the chapter on the ps5 did not fix the glitch for me. pretty scummy of them to release a new version of the game without even fixing the glitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockhopper78 Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 (edited) Oh my God! Thank you OP and to whoever found this fix! I had played this game over 4 years ago and was only missing hard difficulty trophy. I like others was unfortunately affected by the glitch. I had beaten this shit game on hard 5 times and it never gave me the trophy. I even wrote out every qte prompt in the game myself on handfuls of index cards that I used to pause and do the inputs little by little. I put it away for over 4 years and saw this thread and decided to give it a try by playing child’s play chapter. Ok so here’s what I did. First of all I’m playing on a PlayStation 5 now. Original time playing was on a base PS4. Luckily I had my save in the cloud. I downloaded save. Loaded my completed hard mode run and loaded childs play chapter. THIS IS THE CONFUSING PART. It asks you how you want to load the chapter. Without saving. With a new login. With current login, but it said something about erasing your current data. So I’m like well I don’t want that. So I chose top option, without saving. Beat the chapter. NO TROPHY. Then I went back to chapters and noticed I was back in first chapter with no chapter select options. So I said ok let me try one more time. Quit game, redownloaded save from cloud. Tried the chapter again. This time choosing BOTTOM OPTION, current login. Beat it and the trophy unlocked and the platinum!!! I was shocked and so relieved. Finally this platinum is done. Even though I legit suffered through these qte’s on hard 5 times. Game deleted again immediately after platinum. THANK YOU AGAIN FOR THIS INFO OP! Edit: to someone asking above if it matters if you get caught by the guards. I did get caught by first guards and it still got the trophy. Just try loading the chapter with bottom choice. Current login. And choose yes. Took one try after I redownloaded save from cloud.

kenseizenkai Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 (edited) OK, so I finished Fahrenheit (Indigo Prophecy) today on Hard difficulty & I got The Road Less Traveled trophy on my first try. Here's how I did it (it will have some spoilers): 1. In main menu, go to Options & set difficulty to Hard. Start a New Movie & ignore the Tutorial. 2. Play through the game & try to collect all crucifixes (lives). Here are all locations: Chapter 4: Confession - Accept the crucifix from Marcus. Chapter 6: Alternate Reality - In Lucas' office, in the right desk drawer of Lucas' workstation. Chapter 10: Hide & Seek - A the beginning of the level, follow the path to dead end. Chapter 15: Agatha - In Agatha's bedroom, on a nightstand, on the right side of the bed. Chapter 29: The Fugitive - In Tiffany's bathroom, between the sink & the shower. Chapter 34: Fate on Russian Hills - From the start, go right & follow the path to dead end. Chapter 41: Where's Jade? - In the last room on the right of the hallway. Chapter 42: Bogart - In the middle train car. If you lose all lives, DO NOT continue from the last save. Instead, return to main menu & select Continue. 3. At any point, DO NOT continue the game from Chapter Select. This can mess up your progress & glitch the trophy. Also when you want to end the game, wait for it to save & quit via XMB. 4. Try to save as much crucifixes as possible (you'll need them for rooftop battle). To make things a little bit easier, in Chapter 41: Where's Jade? try to find Jade (she's in the last room on left of the hallway). After the damned Matrix rooftop battle, give the girl to Agatha (AI). In the last chapter, instead of the Oracle, AI will carry the girl. Win the very easy L1/R1 sequence & very short & easy QTE sequence. Oracle will appear. DO NOT give him the girl & win another very short & easy QTE sequence, carry the girl to the alter & that's it. If you did everything right, trophy will unlock DURING the end movie. Hope it helps & don't give up! EDIT: Typos.

RobOfLeeds Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Thought I'd share my own experience of the hard playthrough seeing as though there doesn't seem to be one definitive way to achieve the platinum! I completed this game on hard about two months ago - of course, no trophy! ? I then proceeded to complete the Child's Play chapter around 20 times - again, no trophy. I even tried deleting both my saved & game data and redownloading them from the cloud. I gave up with the game and decided to revisit it at a later date. The date was today - I was fully prepared to play the entire game again on hard difficulty. But just to be sure, I loaded the game up, logged into my "Hard Mode" profile and loaded up the 'Child's Play' chapter. After completing the chapter, 'The Road Less Travelled' trophy popped along with the platinum. Hopefully this helps someone out who is/was having the same problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you change the difficulty to Hard in the Options menu & did you start a New Movie? If yes, I don't know what to tell you. Try replaying chapters one by one on Hard & if that doesn't work, you'll have to play the whole game from the beginning. My strategy works, because that how I got the trophy & the plat.

Thanks for the tips. I did start a New Movie on a brand new profile, and of course I set that to Hard immediately after creating the profile and before starting the game. Hard mode being hard with the QTEs at times, I did occasionally quit to the main menu and resume with Continue. I never did "resume from last save" within a level, nor use Chapter select. The next thing I will try is playing each chapter on its own using the Chapter select menu in the same profile. If that doesn't work, I will completely erase all save data for the game from the PS5 menu and start a brand new profile directly on Hard mode. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A month and a half later, I just booted up the Hard mode profile, played Child's Play, and got the trophy. So there's definitely something time-based about this bug. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skotafactor Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 Just got it to pop for me as well. I used chapter select and “restart from last save” a number of times in my first play through and it didn’t pop. I replayed Child’s Play 7 or 8 times, jumping around a few other chapters that glitched or that I knew I failed and restarted in my first play through. I finally restarted from ch 2 to get the last trophy I missed with the book in ch 21, and it popped in ch 15 Agatha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenjiCBZ Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Just got it with no issues, it did not glitch. What I did was to select Hard difficulty before starting the game, then I played the Tutorial, and then I never went to the option menu ever again.
