Popular Post MidnightDragon Posted January 29, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 29, 2020 (edited) Mission 100%: Spring 2020 Backlog Challenge Special thanks to @damon8r351 @colinmazzini and @ShadowStar83x for their parts in hosting the challenge! If you're like me, you've got an insanely large backlog and have no good reason you keep putting it off and watching it grow. Why not do something about it? Like previous backlog challenges, this event is a challenge to the community to select between 5 and 25 games from your backlog and complete them to 100% starting 00:01 AM EST March 1 and ending at 23:59 US EST on May 31. If you complete the maximum of 25 before the end of the challenge, you can add up to 10 more games for a total of 35. Now, here are the details and rules. Event Philosophy: This is a firm commitment to complete the games you say you will within the time limit, so choose games you know you can finish, and select a manageable number. The minimum for the event is 5 games, and the maximum is 25. If you finish 25 games, you can add up to five more. You can change your games as much as you want until 23:59 EST on February 29. After the event begins, you can make up to two swaps. If you think there's a good reason to drop a game entirely without swapping (like your console broke or the game got damaged beyond repair), message me. If you want to add more games to your list or want to continue after finishing your list, you can add games to your list up to the maximum. The object is not to just earn the platinum as applicable, but to reach 100% trophy completion for it. DLC is included and you will have to complete any new DLC that's released during the challenge. If you don't like DLC, don't put a game with it on your list. Eligible Games: Any game with trophies are eligible for the event, with a few exceptions. One game can have a completion percentage of up to 30%, but the rest must be 25% or under. Unreleased games are fine as long as they're released and you buy them within the challenge's timeframe. If it gets delayed outside the challenge window, you can swap it and it not count against the two swaps. Standalone DLC (like Uncharted: The Lost Legacy) is acceptable as long as it's not part of another trophy list. If it is (Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare for example), you have to also complete the other trophies. You can also do a game where 100% is unobtainable if you feel strongly about it, but you must complete all obtainable trophies. Individual episodes of a game that has separate trophy lists, such as in early Telltale games or Broken Sword on the Vita, count as a single game; therefore, Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse counts as 1 game, not 5. For this event, you may complete a game you have previously done for a different platform or region before the start of this event, but you may not do the same game multiple times during this event. Cross-saving a game for an easy completion will also be ineligible. Eligible Participants: Anyone is eligible to participate, provided you are serious about completing the games you say will. However, if you have flagged games on your PSNProfile, you are banned from participating unless you hide the games, get unflagged, or use a different profile. No cheating! Also, if you change your PSN ID, please let me know so I can update you on the list.

Popular Post Copanele Posted January 29, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 29, 2020 (edited) Yey this came in early! Using my fall/winter challenge experience, I will limit myself to ONLY 5 games this time. If I finish them I will add some more after. THE SPRING CLEANING LIST: 1. Alice : Madness Returns - 3% 2. Mini Ninjas - 2% 3. Dragon's Dogma(PS3) - 2% 4. Far Cry Primal - 2% 5. One Piece Pirate Warriors 2 - 13% These should be pretty decent to complete during spring (except one piece which is a dreadful game). Best of luck to everyone!

Popular Post Litha Posted January 29, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 29, 2020 I plan on spending some of this year cleaning out my PS2/PC backlog, but great stonking heck I had so much fun with the last event that I can't refuse. This is what I've got so far, subject to change: The Last of Us: Remastered (PS4) - I plan on doing the multiplayer 100% legit this time because I found myself enjoying it. Dark Souls: Remastered (PS4) - Still haven't finished a Soulsborne game. Let's change that, eh? Uncharted: Drake's Fortune Remastered (PS4) - I've been meaning to work through the series on this account. Sound Shapes (PS4) - I found myself enjoying this game, but those Death Mode challenges really push my shit in. Time to commit. This will be my 'up to 30%' game. Dragon Age: Origins (PS3) - Another game I've been meaning to play through but never found the time. I'll do a main playthrough concurrently with two half playthroughs to mop up missables. Jotun (PS4) - I played a bit of this on an old account before I found an interest in trophy hunting. A game with a simple control scheme and some challenging trophies. I was inspired by @Copanele to go for this after I read his retrospective on the game. This'll probably be my first UR platinum. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to challenge myself to complete Star Ocean: The Last Hope but HELL no I'm not going to do that in 2 months. LOL. I require sleep at some point. With that, like I said I would do.... here comes the ENTIRE DARK SOULS SERIES for this event! Haven't touched any of them specifically for this event! >:) Color Code: Red = Game not started. Green = Game is in progress. Blue = Game completed to 100% + DLC. 1) Dark Souls 1: Remastered + DLC (PS4) 0% 2) Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin + DLC (PS4) 0% 3) Dark Souls 3 + DLC (PS4) 0% 4) Dragons Dogma: Dark Arisen (PS4) 0% 5) Star Ocean: The Last Hope of Ever Having A Social Life Again! ... okay, okay just kidding. I'll probably do some really small game for this one. Let's go with... 5) Darksiders 1: Warmastered Edition (PS4) 0% The reason for only 5 games is because these are longer games to complete/difficult games to complete which may require breaks/rotating between the games. Trying to combine my challenge of reaching 100% completion profile by end of 2020, participating in the RPG games event and committing to fully 100% these games above by May will provide a huge challenge for me. If I manage to complete all of them relatively easily I'll add some more. Since the event starts in March, that means I can spend next month clearing out my backlog of games I already have 30% or above completion on. That way I can focus solely on the ones above from March to May.

Hey, good luck on this one. It'll be an interesting shift for your first Soulsborne game but this is not too bad to complete. Controls can be a little clunky and some of those hitboxes will make you scrunch your face up as you sigh in disbelief. Solid entry to use to try the series out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe DSIII was my first followed by Bloodborne and DSI. I never finished any of them. The thing for me is Soulsborne games are more akin to a relationship than a game; I need to commit every day (I guess that's why I'm still single ;-)). 1 hour ago, MidnightDragon said: Also @SpaghettiGrabsy Have fun with Dragon Age. Cheers. I most certainly plan to. I'm going to try and finish the game on Nightmare. There's no trophies for it, but it's more of a personal goal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bastion Batman: The Telltale Series (PS4) Beyond: Two Souls (PS3) Bioshock (PS4) Guacamelee! 2 I wonder if I can find another B game to replace Guacamelee so I can have all Bs for the challenge.
