That would require actually caring about the opinions of others, which makes your own life being dependant on random strangers, which can be bad and personally I recommend avoiding. Just be the master of your own life and enjoy every moment of it, as there are no replays nor continues in that game. i agree with this 100%. i just play the games i enjoy (most times), and if i can get a plat i will. but i dont go out of my way to. i dont care for rankings etc.. i enjoy gaming when i have time and thats all i really care about. to each their own. tho i guess if i had to answer the question, the overall number of rarer plats wins. anyone could get 100 plats doing all the visual novels and crap plats (i have a few crap plats), but then you look at the persons list and say hey you have 100 plats, and its all crap games.... or you find someone with solid 40+ plats but are rare or harder to achieve, makes it look better.

I literally just signed up here, randomly clicked on some forum post on the sidebar, and bam I see your name. Also sorry for posting here, my browser won’t load properly so I can’t DM you. To answer the thread, # of plats doesn’t really impress me - tho I will briefly marvel at hauls that are in the hundreds. I respect the dedication but skill is what I truly value. When it comes to my own profile, I enjoy both. PS3T.com right? Cause someone could've been masquerading as me on .org lol. But yes I am Feral from PS3T. All good mate. I'm a little worried as to why you remember me though. Edited May 30, 2019 by Feral Missed a word, as bloody always Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iLL-Mortick Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Both. I like getting ultra rare plats and I want to be in the top 50's in my country, which means I also have to do the ezpz stacks to grow numbers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClownSyndicate Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 "trophy hunters" who just stack easy platinums from terrible or easy games are no trophy hunters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdruA Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Fun platinums, those are what matter to me I dont really care about rarity or the amount of plats since: Rarity only signifies if the plat is hard and/or grindy and/or boring Amount only signifies how much you play, how much time you have, and technically how 'fast' you gain them Both, dont necessarily include 'fun' in it, if just somehow it was possible to include a 'honest fun-o-meter', now that would be what i value most Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember you to, must be the Jack Sparrow avatar and alcohol references. You're kind of celebrity. To answer OPs question. People who actually finish the games they're playing is better. I'm currently playing WATCH_DOGS on PS3. 21,6% of players has unlocked the trophy for completing the game according to PS APP. What's up with that?

Vergil Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 (edited) Getting more platinums these days is extremely easy. So definitely rarer for me. But hey that's just me Edited May 30, 2019 by Vergil 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reiner- Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Personally many rare trophies/platinums is more impressive but rarity usually means very difficult or very time consuming and most people probably don't have the time to grind 500 hours for a plat or play multiple playthroughs of the same game. I myself like to mix it up. That's why in my list Access Denied is next to Sekiro. ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loool don't fret, as someone mentioned above there's just something about a feral, alcoholic Johnny Depp from Australia that sticks in the mind. I actually posted a thread on PS3T in ~2014, reminiscing about all the site members i used to look up to, one of which was you. And I'm pretty sure you were the first reply to that thread!

Fr_0zt Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 (edited) The way I do things is the best way.... play whatever you like and put the time and effort to platinum/ 100% if you want. Don't worry about rarity (pointless and could change at any moment) and amount plats, it's all about the quality of time and fun of playing and hunting. That said.... don't be one of them people with 4+ stacks on shitload of games, that is the definition of trophy whore.

cris3f Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 As in most things in life, quality should some above quantity. Having fun is crucial, but dedication to a difficult personal goal does have its pluses. I would never spend a ton of money or "effort" playing junk, just to have a ton of trophies. But each gamer should do what it pleases him / she. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no universally agreed upon criteria for what constitutes a "real" trophy hunter, and besides to categorize as such is the height of pomposity. So there are people who like to earn lots of stacks to boost their ranking and level, so what? Why be so derisive of the way people play games? Even beforehand most people had no chance of the top spots in their country/world so I don't really see what's so different now. Of what consequence is the ways and means by which others obtain trophies so long as they aren't hacking? We're all gamers and all trophy hunters and our community is toxic enough as it without contriving more ways to bring each other down.

GUDGER666 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 I like to get rare plats then do a few easy ones. It's a great feeling getting a plat that not many have, but its also nice and relaxing getting an easy plat. Getting a rare plat is definitely a better feeling though. Getting trophies on PS3 is also better imo because i like to hear the ping sound which is nice and clear on PS3... On PS4 it isn't, most of the time I don't even hear the ping.

killerlightning Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 It depends on if you like playing the game or not bc easy platinums can be fun for you and doesnt cheapen it at all. Also, if you are going for the pass on sony rewards then getting easy platinums is the way to go lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrophyHunter_SB Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 IMO I think the rarer the platinum, the better. Personally I created this account as a 100% account while playing games that take more skill then tapping a button or a “point and click” game. I find it more satisfying to complete a difficult game then to complete a game that may take an hour or so to play. But i’m also kinda weird, like i enjoy games that require a grind because I like to get my money out of a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaikichiKawachi Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Bad games make your account look bad. Good games make your account look good. Typically the easy ones are the bad ones but it does not necessarily work in the inverse. Some of the rarest platinums are rare because they are a chore or unfair. Neither of which are good game design. Doing the same mundane and repetitive task for 200 hours to earn an obscure platinum is just as pointless as playing a Ratalaika game in my opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's well known that players with stacks and bad + easy games are trophy whores.
