Popular Post Bullstomp Posted April 17, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) As someone who wasted hundreds of hours ( many of which I was AFK but fuck you that's not the point ? ) platting MK9 I can't see the appeal of mind-numbing grinding. ESPECIALLY to the point you're complaining its NOT in this game. If you're complaining about not having to waste hundreds of hours of your life for this platinum then you have some serious validation issues. . .

I'm not sure if NRS did this on purpose to have trophy hunters touch the game but if they did I don't see any non-fighting game player enjoy the game. I don't even think they will stick around after. This Platinum status is gonna go from Ultra Rare to Common. BET with only spending real money you can literally 100% MK11 in 8 hours (my prediction of the length of completing) My complaint here is INJ2 / MKX were such a grind it made the trophies much more satisfying, but this list........ They don't care about trophy hunters. Stop it. Also, you didn't even do MK 9 MK 9 wasn't even that bad either. I actually will play this game because it has Jade in . She's my favorite character. You can enjoy a game, despite it not being a grind, you know. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end, it's just a grindfest. And as I already mentioned in another thread, I think that "Master of Time (Komplete 250 Towers" will keep the plat rarity low. I've only played MK Armageddon and MK9 and I'm not remembering what the Towers are... Is it a online thing? I know there's a tower in arcade mode or something like that where you have to beat all 10 adversaries + boss to win. Is that it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GraveFoxVII Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 And here I am, just happy that this plat won't be gated behind trying to get a single special move from an RNG box a la Injustice 2's 'Cat Fight' trophy. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m all for a challenge but can’t be bothered with stupid ass trophies that require senseless grinding. Don’t know how anyone can find that sort of shit satisfying. I like the 10 wins in a row and hidden fighters and stuff like that, the gain mastery of all fighters on MK9 was bullshit but I would have preferred it the same difficulty as MK10 at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thefourfoldroot Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Grindy is not the same as challenging. The former is elitist merely in the fact that those with less time can't get them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conor Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) This could very well be the First-Worldiest of First World problems. If you like grindy trophies, more power to you, I just happen to not subscribe to the hugely irrational belief that a platinum trophy needs to make you hate the game in pursuit of it. That doesn't lead to satisfaction or accomplishment, it was, in the end, just a grind. Edited April 17, 2019 by Stan Lee 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTEzuma89 Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) It is good when trophy list gives you some accomplishment. But when you start hating the game and the trophy list it's another topic. Ofcourse if the platinum is too easy , I don't like it either. Tekken 6,7 - took me about a week. It's a joke. And if i played it almost for 12hours straight it could've been faster. Edited April 17, 2019 by DanTEzuma89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thanatos_razl009 Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 I'll enjoy the game and going for the trophies. I'm still working on MK vs DC, MK 9 on Vita and Injustice on both PS3 and PS4 so that's enough grind for me lol. I just don't have as much time as I used to.

Ive got 86 hour in Injustice 2 and have opened like 2000 boxes and fought hundreds of bosses for that stupid Cat Call trophy. Grind like that is not fun at all. That's the crap that takes the fun out of getting trophies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad that the trophies seem to be easier because I'm not that good at fighting games and now I can finally give a Mortal Kombat platinum a try. I'm not sure about the DLC trophies though, they could be really hard compared to the platinum... does it matter when you have the MKX Plat but not the plat for injustice 2? maybe he got burned down like me with the RNG trophy and stopped playing for the plat. nice to see that you are glad with the list but some of us wanted at least one or two trophies than meant a challenge for the plat, at the end of the day is a FG no matter what.

It's weird because he complains about the Mortal Kombat 11 trophies being too easy while at the same time stating that he isn't a completionist anyway. Then why bother and not just enjoy the game? But that's just my opinion and we can't change the trophies anyway (btw I'm not sure they're actually that easy). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilpain97 Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Correct me if im wrong but both MK9 and 10 weren't hard either? MK9 just took 350+ hrs? Reading both guides they both aren't rated past 5/10 so why are people complaining? I know I haven't played but em so again correct me if im wrong.

Dude have you seen the gameplay? It’s Kid Kombat 11!! 3 hit combos are the norm and game is slow as hell now. This game is for the masses and so is the trophy list! It’s clear they’re trying to break sales records. This is is a simpler game than SFV and I didn’t think that was possible. #BABY’sFirstKombat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sepheroithisgod Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I haven't played an MK game since the PS2, but this one does look fun. I think trophy lists, in general, are becoming easier for AAA games. They want to make sure they are attracting the largest amount of people possible. Making the trophy list easy makes it more accessible. I don't agree with this mindset, but it does make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

INJ2 had a stupid grind with the cat call trophy , i played the game for 50+ hours but i couldn't grind more for the platinum. My main focus here is to enjoy the game first and not grind 200 hours for a plat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake2410 Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I'm all for an easier trophy list, especially when it comes to online. Not because I don't think I can compete, but because my internet connection acts like it came from the dark ages most of the time. Sadly it's the best possible in my area too, just rural enough that broadband/fiberoptic/DSL won't be installed. Have to settle for satellite or pay per gig cellphone hotspots. Sucks.

Nitemares----- Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 I just got the Platinum last night for MKX and the Platinum for Injustice 2 last October, 100% both games. I am so happy that the trophy list is way easier, I've never been a fan of online, sick of the pointless repetitive grinding like in KOTH, getting 1000 Respect Points when people give 0 on purpose, it's a damn joke. For Injustice 2, I ended up getting the Cat Call, 3rd from the last Ability, I was one of the unlucky ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have Grand Theft Auto V and The Last of Us under your belt. Both require a lot of playing online, so I'm just wondering if those were before you moved to a rural area. --- Back to topic, while I think the trophy list could of done with some more variety, I don't see this to be as bad as some people think. People complain to complain. I'm just glad I haven't started a little argument for once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
