Kwotey Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 The guide on here gives it a 7/10 difficulty while the PowerPyx guide only gives it a 3/10? So which is it? it seems a big difference.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will its depends on the player skills especially if you played it before it should be 3/10 but if your new to this game it will be 5\10 i think 7/10 is a little to much for a very short game Edited January 16, 2019 by dark69knight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GothGirlMaxine Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I'm guessing it's to do with the missable trophies, collectibles, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaserPL Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 (edited) Back in the day when I was trying to make my Wall of Platinums/trophy checklist, I had pretty decent numerical rating system.. 1 for games that are doable under 5 hours without any guide (My name is Mayo), 2 for games under 5 hours where a guide can help, they are stress-free and children can complete them (Day of the Tentacle), 3 for games doable in around 10/15 hours without any guide (The Walking Dead), 4 for games where a guide can help and they are 10/15 hours (Trine 1/2), 5 for games 20/25 hours long where a guide is helpful, no online boosting or grinding trophies, no multiple playthroughs needed or you can do a speedrun in 5/6 hours (InFamous First Light), 6 for games that range in 25/40 hours with some online trophies, grinding or multiple playthroughs needed - they aren't difficult but you need to dedicate some time and effort for them (Bioshock 2), 7 for games under 40 hours with online boosting/grinding and/or many playthroughs needed (MoH Warfighter/MoH), 8 for games doable in around 50/60 hours, grinding/boosting and/or many playthroughs are required, most of the times they can cause headaches, (Black Ops 2/NFS Shift 2), 9 for games that are painful (not necessarily difficult per se) to complete yet not that extreme, games under 80 hours with very difficult challenges, MP boosting needed or lots of grinding. (Catherine, Black Ops 3, I Am Bread) 10 for games where the developer should have thought at some point "is it a good idea to implement this trophy here?" but they didn't. Over 100 hours long, high skill or luck dependent, extremely challenging or with ridiculous boosting requirements, only dedicated and somewhat masochistic players will complete them (Max Payne 3, Super Meat Boy, Far Cry 2).

Leeeoom Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I just got my platinum, this game is a solid 5. It's very short and easy with the only problem being the Oni Spirits minigame which took me about an hour. If 10 year old me could complete all stages of the minigame, then anyone can do it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oni Spirits was definitely the hardest part. I just beat Oni Spirits and i'm about 15 min into the Ultimate S rank speedrun. This speedrun seems like it will be incredibly easy.

Mayadome Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 I have no idea what Powerpyx was thinking when giving it a 3/10. Even his roadmap says to do both no healing and no upgrades in the same 1st playthrough which I think is absolutely absurd. Sure it's possible but that's making the plat walkthrough way harder than it needs to be. Doing it that way would bump the difficulty up to an 8/10 in my opinion. I reckon overall spreading the trophies over 3-4 playthroughs (one no heals, one no upgrades, one ultimate, one cleanup or blind 1st playthrough) would make it about a 5-6/10 plat. It's not that hard but defeating the final two bosses with no heals or level 1 weapon is quite challenging. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neme-ita Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 For me 2/10 super easy and fast my first run on normal without cure and getting everything, second run ultimate mode for all other trophies and last without upgrade energy, mana and swords.

TheLakota Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 It's a five for me personally. Oni Spirits can eat a bowl of dicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pokedude97 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 (edited) Just got the plat. I'd give it a 3/10. First playthrough with no upgrades and no healing wasn't that bad except for the Wasp boss, and the Ultimate S run didn't require any effort at all. Oni Spirits took a few tries but it wasn't anything compared to God of War challenge rooms.

You just do no healing and no upgrades until the final two bosses (skipping the Dark Realm), beat them while healing but no upgrades, reload, beat them while upgraded but no heals.

optimusmart Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Ppyx always underestimates, and most other sites overestimate, generally anyway. Go for inbetween. I may have picked this up down the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was playing last night and noticed I missed the great armor in both my no healing and no upgrade runs. Would that make a difference? Honestly I found it really hard to beat the final two bosses with no healing or no weapon upgrades. Definitely way more than a 2-3/10 to me. It's closer to DMC1 or REmake/RE0 in difficulty, although much shorter. The main game before the final two bosses is fairly easy though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you missed the Great Armor, then you bumped up the difficulty a tiny bit because it greatly (lack of a better word) reduces the damage you take. However, the Great Armor is really only useful for the Marcellus fight because his attacks can be a bit painful to dodge. Fortinbras is a total joke because his attacks are incredibly easy to dodge. You can easily complete the battle without taking a single hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lasers always hit me at least once and I seem to get bad RNG with him spamming that swipe attack or pink plasma things near his body so you can't hit him. And then he seems to regen stun health if you don't keep hitting him. I still beat it without healing but it took like 2 hours of attempts. Not the cakewalk I thought it would be based on the guides and other people's impressions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordBilbanes Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I remember playing the original version of this game. I don't remember if I beat it, though. Personally, I think I might have a decent chance of beating this game and getting the plat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrEvilGuapo Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Quick question for those that have done the no healing playthrough. Does using the Talisman, to revive automatically on death with full health, negate the trophy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
