starcrunch061 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I need to get on the ball this month, though Edith Finch will likely be my goto. God bless pointless, arty GOTY awards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the HC to count does it HAVE to be 45 trophies in only the base game, or does dlc count toward the 45 trophies? If you complete the DLC to actually get at least 45 trophies it would count. Let's take Rocket League as an example. The base game has a total of 36 trophies which would be enough for the base theme. You can get the hardcore star by completeing DLC packs with at least 9 trophies. In this case that would be at least two.

I just got the Plat for Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories, which was never nominated for anything that I could find. I could probably finish What Remains of Edith Finch for the month, however I wanted the entire KH series to be consecutive on my profile so will just use a skip for the month. Next month I'm good since KH2 has 51 trophies. I couldn't find any GOTY awards either. Edith Finch is a very short game of about 3-5 hours. I already played it way before it was part of PS+ and enjoyed it very well. How many KH games do you have left and in which order do you play them? I started with Birth by Sleep and wanted to play the series on chronological order. But first I have to continue with Birth by Sleep but there are always other games I play. I decided to update the thread this Friday together with the rollover for next month, so just a little more patience. I think I will use Life is Strange: Before the Storm this month. I only have to finish the last episode. God of War on the other hand still takes some time and will be used for next month instead. I hope at least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started with Birth by Sleep and wanted to play the series on chronological order. But first I have to continue with Birth by Sleep but there are always other games I play. Technically I have five real games and seven overall if you include the Re:Coded and X Back Cover 'movies'. I was originally going to do it in chronological order as well, but it was recommended I play them more closely based on release order as the series might be more enjoyable that way. By playing them chronologically, it may ruin some surprises or twists in the story apparently. Here is the order I am doing: Kingdom Hearts Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days Kingdom Hearts II Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep Kingdom Hearts: Re:Coded Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance Kingdom Hearts 0.2: Birth By Sleep - A Fragmentary Passage Kingdom Hearts: X Back Cover Kingdom Hearts III I've been told that 358/2 and KH2 can be swapped and that Birth By Sleep and Re:Coded can be swapped without too much impact. I went with 358/2 first since I've never played KH2. I'm hoping to be through the whole series by the end of the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champ147 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Just finished my one and only game for the month of May, God of War! Started this month HC as it won GOTY award Used for another event, Bingo Truly a great game if anyone hasn't played it yet. I was skeptical as I am with all reboots but this one is a gem, possibly even better than the original IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmarisSkye Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Not sure if this one counts for this month but even if it doesn't I wanted to post my stat updates for the month as I don't believe they will change much over the next few days. Zero Time Dilemma - Nominated for IGN Playstation Vita GOTY in 2016 Complete a game that counts towards a different PSNP event (Songkran Festival) I really loved this game. I didn't realize at first that it was the last of the series and simply started playing it because it was a PS Plus game with good puzzles and was highly rated. I intend to play the rest of the series despite knowing the ending. This and Steins;Gate are easily my favorite visual novels. I love the sci-fi story lines and find time travel as a mechanic in a game to be pretty nifty.

Gesyca Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Ok I actually started this month with another game, unfortunately end up being too hard for me, then I did the easy What Remains of Edith Finch, but I really wanted a platinum next to this month like all the others months that I've been doing, so I move on to Psychonauts when I was looking on the list provide here to play another game, and it's done, by the way I love the image trophies on Psychonauts, it looks like a sticker and this game it's a nice port from PS2, I had some minor problems, thanks to the saves I didn't have lost much, I've got some couple of frozen cameras all I needed was to get out of that 'mind' and go back then everything was back to normal. What Remains of Edith Finch Hardcore Requirement - Winner - British Academy Games Awards 2017; Complete a game that counts towards a different PSNP event - Bingo Bonanza - Award-Wining; Complete a game that you started this month. Psychonauts Hardcore Requirement - Winner - Eurogamer 2005; Complete a game that counts towards a different PSNP event - Bingo Bonanza - Cult Favorite; Complete a game that you started this month; Complete a 10 year old game. I actually could try another one, however it's hard and I could end up losing time trying it and failing, also I'm looking to the next challenge it's a bigger game, so I'll be moving on.

DoctorDrPepper Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 @MarkusT1992 did some digging. Tacoma was nominated for GOTY by Gameinformer in 2017. It’s not enough for the HC but that does count it for the general category giving me my fourth game this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I wrote above I decided to count awards for specific platforms so I would have counted it nontheless. I finished Life is Strange: Before the Storm for this month. It wasn't as great as the first game but still a good game.

MarkusT1992 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 We all like collecting trophies, otherwise we probably wouldn't be here. That's why next month's theme will be all about trophies. The more trophies there are to collect in a game the better. Every game that has a platinum and at least 35 trophies counts for the base requirement. In addition every game without a platinum and at least 15 trophies can be used. Examples: God of War, Full Throttle: Remastered, Hotoful Boyfriend, Thomas Was Alone For the hardcore requirement we need some more trophies. 10 more to be exact for every game with a platinum. That's 45 total. The games without a platinum only need 5 more trophies adding up to a total of 20. Examples: Trials Rising, Human Fall Flat, Randal's Monday, Walking Dead Michonne Note that the required amount of trophies doesn't have to be in the base game. Trials Rising doesn't have enought trophies in its base game list but together with the DLC trophies it has enought. Should there be more than one DLC for a game but you can reach the required amount of trophies without finishing all the DLC it's enought to finish only the ones that give you enought trophies. You still have 24h to complete and submitt games for May. Next come the reminder for the people without games for May: @Ampplaca @ArdorTichy @CSmit180 @Dinkus83 @diskdocx @Hunter226037 @NetEntity @Psy-Tychist @starcrunch061 @SyIaris @Violino Last but not least the people without games for three months in a row: @cerafinn @The_Accountant13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gesyca Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Stats at the end of May: Stats at the end of April: Platinum trophies: this month 24 (+1) / all year (+11); 100% completed: this month 32 (+2) / all year (+15); Completion: 47.96% this month (+0.78%) / this year (+7.28%). End up being a nice month once again and stats still going up, I'm trying to go to a 50% completion this year, looks close, but every shine new game brings it down, I'm tempted to buy CTR Nitro-Fueled, I'm just waiting on more info about this game and all stuff, anyway I think I should work on my backlog a little before the release date so the stats keep all blue/green.

CSmit180 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 @MarkusT1992 I haven't achieved any platinum or 100% last month. I only finished Detective Pikachu on 3ds last month, can I use a skip in this situation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArtikSkarab Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Tried to complete Batman: Arkham Asylum GOTY Edition, but I'm terrible at the challenges section...

What Remains of Edith Finch Winner of the GotY award from British Academy Games Awards Fulfills the Hardcore requirement. Started this month Spyro 3 This was on Push Square’s top 10 GOTY list for 2018 (I completed 2 as well, but I believe you indicated earlier I could use any one of the 3, since it was the collection itself that was nominated) Complete a 10 year old game Started this month End of month Stats: Platinum trophies: 676 (+51)100% completed: 969 (+61)Completion: 98.83% (-0.5%) [Driveclub....yikes!] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So only XBox and Steam/any other PC platform with achievements. I could count games with an ingame achievement system but as far as I remember there was no such system in Detective Pikachu. 5 hours ago, ArtikSkarab said: Tried to complete Batman: Arkham Asylum GOTY Edition, but I'm terrible at the challenges section...

As long as the total trophies are over or equal the required amount the game counts. The only exception are games with only one trophy left before the platinum or more if they stack as those games are excluded by the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ampplaca Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 (edited) after getting PUBG with 2 glitched trophies(just my luck) i wasn't able to complete that for this challenge. i ended up doing the Last Guardian instead. I am using this game in a competition i am doing with friends that runs for the month of July so i wont be procing the platinum but i have just one trophy left and am infront of the last barrel i need(eat every barrel). if this doesnt work ill be using one of my Skips and the game will be Conan Exiles Edited June 1, 2019 by Ampplaca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinkus83 Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 Thanks for the reminder @MarkusT1992!

Briste Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Finished two games in May...nothing that qualified for anything though. I'll maybe get one game done this month in Kingdom Hearts II, but the trophy guide says 90 hours to complete, so I may run out of time. If I get it done it will count for the HC for the month. Below are my updated numbers...completion is slightly off since I didn't get the figures on Friday.
