FFVIII Remastered Trophy Thoughts?


Recommended Posts

Welp, I was just going to snag this on Switch because portable Triple Triad, but this list is so doable (although there are a few that will be challenging for me) that part of me is now thinking a double dip may be in order. I'll just wait for one of you awesome people to publish a guide to help me out with the parts that'll be rough, haha.

Never played Triple Triad back on PS1 so not sure how difficult beating all CC members will be but thank god you don't have to go fight the Queen of Cards.

Anything missable in this list? 

 

You're locked into disc 4 and can't do a lot once you get there (actually, I believe at a certain point in disc 3 if I'm remembering correctly) so yes.

Easier than the Steam list.

1. 10,000 kills is gone.

2. Magazine addict is gone.  This was collect three other magazine types.

3. Finishing the game with Squall at initial level is gone.

Im glad the trophy are easier to obtain than the trophies in FF9. Is there any missable trophy I should look out for?

1.  Timber Maniacs

2.  Pupu Quest

3. Defeat all members of the CC.  I believe the Queen gets very difficult to defeat if the certain card rules spread.

 

This is what I remember off the top of my head.

Took 20 hours to "platinum" on Steam last year.

Nah I saw what you meant after I replied. 

 

On another note the only thing on here that looks iffy is collecting the timber maniacs. Does anyone remember if the old strategy guide listed their location or if there's any online ?

Yes.  There is a guide that contains their location.  I think the old faq's for the original game still apply for the most part.

Can you recommend any perticular ones?

I used a steam guide for the specific achievements/trophies.

I also used a guide (most likely Absolute Steve's) from GameFAQ's for the general walkthrough.  There are a number so if you don't like one, you can always try another.  Site also has a large number of topic specific guides.

 

Hope this helps.

thankfully one doesn't have to do a low level one based on the steam trophy list ><. can't remember how long final fantasy 8 took but it's going to be plenty of hours invested especially with doing everything minus a few things the others have mentioned ie card queen.

how diff is it from Steam list?

It is a subset.  Most difficult trophies have been removed for the most part.

 

Added - I posted a link to the Steam achievement list earlier.
