That guy would consistently crank out a new book like every month. As a kid, I didn't care that they were quickly written, they were simple, entertaining, and scratched that itch I needed. My point is, not every book you read needs to be Tolstoy or Faulkner, and likewise, not every video game you play needs to be a AAA hundred hour adventure. Read what you want, play what you want. Have fun, too--that's all that matters Nobody was tracking how many Goosebumps books you read and comparing that number to the amount of 500 page epics someone else has read as if they're the same thing. You also had no incentive to stop reading after the first 5 pages like you do with Ratalaika games. Trophy hunting on the other hand is extensively tracked, but unless someone looks deep into your profile, a 200 plat trophy card is the same as a 200 plat trophy card, but the profile itself could be loaded with all these shitty 4 minute stacks where as the other could be entirely games that the person bought to enjoy and got the trophies along the way. Nobody is buying Ratalaika games for enjoyment and they're in denial of their harmful addiction if they say otherwise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people can't see that for themselves they need to get help not get mad. A person would have to be a idiot to think all the jack n jill stacks they got that ranked them up so high mean anything. What a bunch of babies crying that they are offended by a post like that. What are we suppose to tell them what a wonderful job they've did and praise them for their I am hero stack. Hey great job on storm boy! Come on man! I only just now saw this post and I have to say, thanks. As much as I want to leave that discussion behind me and move forward, too many people got offended over it. At the end of the day, we have to agree to disagree with some others. Pretty much the only way I can say a lot of things in general without getting into a big argument over them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Velvet Posted May 4, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 4, 2019 Alrighty, so, after getting a chance to play the game, I figured I’d jump in here and say some stuff about it just to somewhat clear the air a bit as to what a “full Ratalaika trophy list” means here. Few things first: I do not work for rata, I have played almost all of their games (and stacked a few), I don’t do it because of leaderboard rankings but because I love trophies, blah blah blah blah blah blah... anyways, moving on. This trophy list felt fair, for lack of a better term. There are a handful of missables and multiple endings to do, one of which may take you quite a few to figure out if you’re playing blind/without a guide. The trophies unlock when you feel they should - completing a chapter, important story part, figuring out a solution to exiting a locked building, etc. I would be hard pressed to say the trophies are just “handed to you” outside of the game itself being on the short side. If you’re playing blind (no guide), this can easily take you 4-6 hours and maybe more depending on if you get stuck on any part. The story itself is good and doesn’t feel like it drags at all. Even doing the multiple endings wasn’t really that bad and, for those who enjoy it, you can skip most of the dialogue (though not recommended). If you’re looking for a 20 minute plat, you won’t find it here. If you’re looking to be able to breeze through the game and earn every trophy without any effort, you won’t find it here. If you’re looking to earn a platinum without having to complete the game, you won’t find it here. It’s definitely a step up from previous lists. It’s not overly difficult, just a little puzzling at times and is a decent little indie horror game, imo. Lastly, apologies for bumping this... colorful... thread, but I didn’t feel starting a new thread was necessary for this. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are way off base here. I have purchased exactly one game published by Ratalaika (One More Dungeon) and have promoted it on more than one occasion. I willingly purchased this game full price and loved every minute of it. Speaking of "harmful addiction," I'm currently averaging 1.37 trophies a day compared to your 4.2 trophies per day, which indicates you have a potentially harmful addiction (of which you are in denial of if you say otherwise). See how easy it is to project? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean tbf you do have a large gap between 2008 and the end of 2013 where you have multiple months of 0 trophies so I'm guessing you weren't really a trophy hunter back then? That skews the trophies per day a bit And yes before you check, so do I, but the difference is I got a few months headstart as I began January 2013 instead of January 2014 which is when yours really start to increase. Also I think One More Dungeon is a bit of an exception here. That was back in 2017, where I'm guessing Ratalaika still gave a fuck about the games they ported considering the effort plats required. Now though, in 2019, they're a completely different company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're the one who said no one is purchasing Ratalaika games for enjoyment. You're the one who said those who purchase Ratalaika games are in denial of their harmful addiction if they say otherwise. You're the one who spoke in absolutes. You need to either defend your position with logic and reason or abandon it and concede. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the guide written by Knoeffi says 1-2 hours and a 2/10 Apologies I meant they're missable if you're trying to do everything (outside of all the endings) in one go. The only trophies you'll absolutely need to use Chapter Select for are the endings (those who have played this may beg to differ with the brain/doll trophies, but I assure you that they can both be earned in one go). With a guide, yes, it'll be 1-2 hours and an easy platinum, but if you're not using one, it'll be more. That was more the point I was getting at in regards to the debate about previous rata games and being able to breeze through them for platinum ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't like the trophies, that's fine. But don't seek out confrontation about it with people who do. ????????? Nice, I agree with this guy. I actually like to do both! Is that shock horror to some of u old miseries?! I fully enjoy hard games, SMB was awesome fun to beat, and I fully enjoy easy games, I'm #TeamRata cuz I actually always find them pretty cute and funny in a good way. It all depends what mood i'm in which game path I'm gonna swing that day, hard or easy, but I enjoy and love it all. And I wouldnt dream of ever judging anyone else for playing the way they want to play. Im shocked people are even having this arguement..... over.... games. !!

NeoMesjasz Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 (edited) What's wrong with you people, why you complain about games that you will not buy and play? Of course ratalika games producing games for easy plats so trophy hunters will buy it, first that's their business and they have customers so they produce more, that's capitalism. Ratalika games are supporting dying platform like ps vita and that's good too. Yes they are devaluate trophy system but if Sony let them to do it it's ok, account managers know better what to do. Different companies are devaluate trophy system too, and trophy system is not fully fair expample sometimes for long and hard trophies you will get bronze trophy and that's not fair. Just let people do what they want to do. And last thing when I was playing devious dungeon I had more fun than in some AAA games, game was very enjoyable, even my brother who is not trophy hunters got plat I'm this game. Respect and waiting for devious dungeons 2 on ps4 or vita. Edited May 10, 2019 by NeoMesjasz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyImp2 Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Personally, I probably won't get it. I have many raitalaka games, primarily because my 6 year olds want to get trophies, and they love a simple game. If I buy it for them, I'm gonna play them too. However, if this 1 hour game is a shoddy as people say the 6 minutes platinum games are, I'm not sure I'll endure a whole hour of it. And my twins won't have the attention span of a 1 hour crap game. So, you see, there is a market for these games. If people feel the need to measure their trophies against others, just use the rarity figures. An actual number of platinums doesn't really mean anything. Too many and you are accused of being a team or having no life. I have some world first trophies, I have some crazy rare trophies. But I don't care what people think of my trophies, and maybe neither should you. It's more like a gamer diary for me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrHambone Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 @quickfoozlle Usually the Asian stacks are released sometime after the initial versions. However, it doesn't look like they have any plans for a stack... for now at least. http://www.ratalaikagames.com/games/mybigsister.php Usually they have TBD for any future releases. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KHDelBoy Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I think it's good for Ratalaika Games helping smaller development companies to get more awareness for their games, even if it is just slap on an easy plat trophy list to it. My Big Sister is probably one (probably the ONLY one) of the best games they've published. I enjoyed the story (although a bit dark... I don't think I will let a young kid play this game at all!) I don't understand why people are moaning about it, on a trophy hunting website of all places. There are players who will pump up their list by playing easy games, there will be players who only pumps up their list by playing normal-hard trophies, or there are players who pump up their list by playing a wide range of games (like me.) Don't like it? Move on to another game, just let what people want to do. On 14/05/2019 at 9:26 PM, TheMightyImp2 said: Personally, I probably won't get it.

KHDelBoy Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) It’s not great, but it’s only one published by Ratalakia that’s decent (which isn’t much tbh.) I would give this an average score, maybe 5/10, and most Of their games would fall in 2-4 out of 10 range. It’s like the older point and click adventure games, but more like the SNES Earthbound games. Some of the puzzle solutions is really not very obvious. I gave up and followed the video guide and got the plat. But I actually like the story but with plenty of polish it would be a 7/10 game.

Kitty_Paine Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 (edited) In my opinion the difficulty of the plat shouldn't matter. Ratailaka port over some pretty good games from steam. My Big Sister is one if them. The story was quite interesting. It's cross buy easy plat is a bonus. I appreciate a good pixelated horror game.
