Popular Post ladynadiad Posted January 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 4, 2020 Lose the Weight - Dark Cloud Focus on Family - htoL#NiQ - The Firefly Diary Update Relationship Status - Go to the Gym - Danganronpa 1+2 Reload (18%) Find Time For Yourself - Queen's Quest 3 Get a Better Job - Valiant Hearts: The Great War Finish Your Masterpiece - Okami HD Volunteer More - Seek Hearts Do Better in School - Corpse Party: Blood Drive Make More Money - Finished my first game at last! I'd edited this one into my initial post once I got far enough that the plat during this event was an actual doable thing (this game is seriously hard). Pretty much the reason why I picked it for focus on family was that once you dive in to getting all the memory fragments, you can clearly see it's a story about a little girl and her parents. I'll put some more details in a spoiler tag since they are pretty late game things. Spoiler Pretty much one of the last memories reveals that Lumen (the firefly you control to direct Mion) is actually her mother and Umbra (a being who you use to flip switches and such) is actually her father. So the game pretty much is little girl being led out of danger by her mother and father and thus a perfect fit for this category even if it doesn't seem evident at the beginning of the game. I will say though, I don't recommend anyone else go for this game. I was just trying to get it out of my backlog at last but it's actually frustratingly difficult and definitely not a good sort of challenging. Half the difficulty is due to controls that leave a lot to be desired and one of the trophies is incredibly luck based. Getting the plat made me lose any liking I had for the game because of having to deal with its frustrating controls and I'm just glad to finally have it out of my backlog for good now. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddly enough, games with "grades" in them was the initial idea for the category, but I thought it was more uncommon than games with a school setting or students in them. Unfortunately, it won't work. Do you have PS+? The game Claire was offered two years ago, is pretty short, and one of the settings is a school. 7 hours ago, ArtikSkarab said: I need confirmation that a game would be appropriate for a category from people who've played it but without spoilers. I'm looking at doing Detroit: Become Human for the Get a Job category and was wondering it it fits? I know two of the main characters have a 'job' (Maid and Detective), but as they're robots/androids, I don't know if it fits as someone doing a job instead of being made for the job. I do know that the theme of humanity and free will are touched on in that game, but would it fit? Once again, no spoilers please. I think this fits, but I haven't played the game yet so I'll let others comment on the appropriateness as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're more made for the job than doing a job, but I don't personally think that disqualifies it from the category. You could also count Connor's partner for Get A Job since he's a human, if that would make you feel a bit better about it 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonemankane Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 (edited) I like to ask if one game could fit a few of the caps here, also by play you mean beat it or 100%/ plat it?

Popular Post Mesopithecus Posted January 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 6, 2020 Update #1 Lose the Weight: Dark Cloud Focus on Family: Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons - ? 01/06/2020 Update Relationship Status: Gal*Gun Double Peace Go to the Gym: Uncharted: The Lost Legacy Find Time for Yourself: Graveyard Keeper Get a Better Job: Slime Rancher Finish Your Masterpiece: Fe Volunteer More: Atelier Firis: The Alchemist and the Mysterious Journey Do Better in School: Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony Make More Money: Final Fantasy VII First game finished with Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons and I'm fondly reminded of the benefits of playing these smaller non-plat PSN games, it gave a nice little breather in between platinums whilst also providing an amazing but sad story. My mind struggled at first to get used to the controls, as the older brother uses the left stick and L2 and the younger brother uses the right stick and R2, but by the end I managed to adapt. I love the puzzles too, they are not too obtuse and add to the sense of adventure. Enjoyed playing this a lot 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fnee2000 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 (edited) Finished off two more games for my list over the weekend. First was Path of Sin : Greed to meet the Find Time For Yourself category with all of the mini games and hidden object puzzles to solve. I was actually working on the second game to finish first, but due to PSNow giving me connection issues, I finished Path of Sin first. The second game I wrapped up was Hakuoki : Stories of the Shinsengumi for the Update Relationship Status category with all its romance options. The story and characters seemed very similar to the Vita versions. Don’t know if one or the other was a port, but it just wasn’t all too interesting for me.

gruffiiti Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 (edited) Monday morning Update: Note I changed Volunteer More to Flipping Death and added Man of Medan to Update Relationship Status that was previously blank. Lose the Weight - Dark Souls: Remastered - Have to get back to this game and since I see it on a few peoples lists Focus on Family - LEGO The Incredibles - What could be better than a family of Super Heroes in the Lego universe Update Relationship Status - The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan - Borrowing idea from others as I have no idea on story Go to the Gym - God of War - This may give me the motivation to beat the last few Valkyries and the Trials of Muspelheim Find Time For Yourself - Everybody's Golf - Plenty of fish to catch in the fishing mini-games Get a Better Job - L.A. Noire - Was planning on playing through this game again on PS4 this year so this will work nicely Finish Your Masterpiece - inFamous: Second Son - Delsin and his graffiti, I almost have to put this here Volunteer More - Flipping Death - Pretty fun quirky game where you have to complete side quests to collect all "Ghost Cards" ☑️ Do Better in School - Bully - One of my favorite last gen titles that I would like to do again on PS4 Make More Money - Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands - Plenty of grinding involved to be able to purchase upgrades for all skills ☑️ Edited January 6, 2020 by gruffiiti 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briste Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I finished The Order: 1886 last night and I think it could fall into two categories and I wanted to see which one is more appropriate. I believe it could qualify for Get a Better Job since his day job (his life really) is working for The Order...however I could see where being a member of The Order isn't a 'job' so thought it could also qualify for Focus on Family since they refer to each other as 'Brothers'...plus three of the main characters are related. I personally feel like it works better for the job one, but I want to make sure I'm putting it in a category that is in the right spirit of the competition. Don't need another Rayman Legends lol 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say it counts for work if you think the main character would collect a paycheck for doing the work. As far as family goes, it counts if the characters are related by blood, adoption, or marriage. If anyone else has input, feel free to comment. Edited January 6, 2020 by eigen-space 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another series I'm not familiar with lol. If you're an assassin for hire, then it would work. If you're assassinating people for fun or based on your own agenda/revenge/etc then it wouldn't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're assassinating people for fun or based on your own agenda/revenge/etc then it wouldn't. I don't think Assassin's Creed fits into that category. The Assassins are a brotherhood of individuals who get rid of the Templar Order agents to ensure freedom for everyone. It's worthy to say that Assassin's Creed II has assassination (for hire) missions, but they are not mandatory for the story. However you need to complete one for one trophy. I think AC Brotherhood and AC Revelations also have assassinations for hire but I guess this time there are no trophies tied to these kind of missions. I don't think this counts for the category mentioned above as these assassination for hire missions are not key to the story nor mandatory. On the other hand, Hitman games might count as you are a professional hitman who is given targets to get rid of because that's his job and not a creed/brotherhood like in Assassin's Creed.

Briste Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 (edited) 13 hours ago, Jens said: On another note.... don't they all have to be somewhat jacked just by pure biological reasoning? They hunt monsters every day, so they can't hide beer-bellies under their coats. I thought of that too since Sir Lucan was pretty jacked but I didn't say that one since I was thinking more Kratos' look for that category. Isabeau and Alastair are step siblings and the adopted children of the Lord Chancellor. All three are central figures in the story so I'll probably go with Focus on Family unless anyone has an issue with that. The Order are knights of the round table... it's probably more a way of life than a job so I can live with it not fitting that category. Thanks for the feedback all!
