I also have some of their plats, but have actually enjoyed the games for the most part. League of Evil and Devious Dungeons I found to be quite fun. There were some that were definitely let downs, but now I just make sure I watch some gameplay before I purchase. They can be a nice breakup between harder/longer games. Im dissapointed they have stopped making them for the vita because i agree they are a nice casual gaming experience between other games that i can chill for an hour on sofa playing one. I liked gravity duck, foxy land and bouncy bullets 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melodicmizery Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 its not going to diminish. i bought a bunch a few weeks ago just to annoy someone on the forum who was complaining about the games. when i looked at how long these games were out they been out like 3 years. some people dont have much money so these are good buys for them. after i bought them after avoiding them for so long i realized i like fast games when im in between games and need a game to kill time for a day until i figure out what game i want to play next. sometimes people have only a dollar or 2 left on their account and they want to buy something. playstation has been putting out these crappy low budget games since ps3 they dont care about quality. i would play more of them but i have a 75 inch tv and 8 bit style games look like crap kinda. i have a crapload of saved games on ps3 from ps plus i never even started. i never thought id say this but im actually starting to like them. they also throw you up on the leaderboards fast. i was stuck at 1,500 for months and then the week i decided to do a bunch of them i went down to 950. i was so sick of seeing 1500 that it was nice to see it move for once lol 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkLordSHTR Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 I made my comment on this subject below before. But I will write something again. This firm will finish itself. Because he pulled his support from the PS VITA console, which they supported for a long time. The reason is very funny. The new engine is not compatible. This is a lie. There are PS VITA versions of Reed 2, Thy Sword and Suareboys Bullies more other games released in NA and EU. But they didn't publish it to AS. Everyone wants to make money and it is their most natural right. But these people only aim is easy money. And they are not honest. If you're not a blind leaderboard member, don't help them make easy money. At least don't buy your games on the day they come out. Wait for a discount. The people who defend them are the people I mentioned above or they are getting and promoting the games for free. They must learn to be honest. Because other companies still support Vita. The reason they do not support is because they have introduced themselves sufficiently. Their arrogance has a reason. Because they have a name. "Ratalaikagames has made games, it is easy, and I must buy!" Show them that they are wrong. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post GothGirlMaxine Posted July 18, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 18, 2020 If I may speak frankly, some Ratalaika Games are actually quite enjoyable to play, especially ones by Stranga Games, LightUp and the Foxyland series, or more recently, Concept Destruction. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malachi1987 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Yea I counted and noticed I did 13 games from them. I'm not ashamed since I just finished up my last ezpz cheap platinum with attack of the toy tanks ( which at first pushed me off so i put it away for almost a year). Can say when I went back it was a breeze funny enough. I applaud them for making simple and somewhat enjoyable games at lightening speed. But I'll move onto my backlog so I can clear it away.

After grinding for weeks (or months) for one specific trophy, sometimes it's nice to just pop a bunch in a short time. I try not to overdo it, but ultimately no one really cares about my profile but me so I don't worry about it too much. I also use them to help manage milestones on this site or events held by another site since they're an easy way to add a certain number of trophies or plats. Preach. I've done some grinds, like hella long grinds (one of the first 25 people to platinum Fortnite) and there is something cathartic dinging a bunch of trophies after spending months going for a single trophy. I've been trophy hunting for 12 years. I used to be rank like 400 in the world but a combination of getting married and easy games quickly moved me down the ladder. I sometimes wish these kind of games didn't exist because they do really change the leaderboard, but I truly understand their appeal and will continue to partake every so often As someone else said earlier in the thread, it is also nice to use them to manipulate stats if you are going for certain trophy milestones. Happy hunting! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I anticipate every indie developer who has partnered with Ratalaika has put real time and effort into their games and it's a good thing Ratalaika helps give their games exposure by utilizing a good sales tactic like quick and easy trophies. Nobody is stopping you from playing Fortnite for thousands of hours so Epic can earn billions from character skins. Nobody will stop trophy hunters from supporting indie so they can earn trophies as well. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you are so uncomfortable, I must have stepped on your wound. You can play the Fortnite. I have been playing GTAO, For Honor and RDO for years.

So you prefer games from the publishers that set strict deadlines and incentives that force the developers to crunch and burn out just so they can release when the publisher says they have to release. Seems weird you're complaining about an indie publisher while you blindly support the publishers that thrive on gambling and micro transactions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And don't demagogy. Explain to me why the support of the PS VITA, which has been supported since the beginning, has been cut off. They cut support with silly and funny excuses. This is where we get angry. I'll tell you why. They made enough money and kicked it at the earliest opportunity. Because now they have money and are known. So they are hypocrites.

TrueMrBubbles Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Never bought any and never will buy such games just to fill my profile with junk. I rather play 2 or 3 months for a platinum then this. But on topic, I think sales will drop eventually, most of the trophy hunters that stack them do it trough shares anyway 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The term "hunter" here being used loosely. The same as when someone "hunts" at McDonald's imo. The times some random friends or people see my profile and comment IS is oddly validating though. But personally it's validating because they don't follow up with questions like, why I spend money on the same game and play so many games 4 times each etc. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YonahFuriae Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 A few weeks ago I saw a game I never noticed in the store on sale, it was "Super Weekend Mode", the retro art was gorgeous and it was a shmup, a genre I totally love which together with Lost Odyssey was the reason I had a 360, started the game excited and in the first seconds I unlocked a bunch of gold trophies, checked the developer, never heard about them but discovered they're infamous for doing this stuff with trophies. Even if I liked the game if I had know I never would have played that on my main profile, I don't know how it's allowed to do that with trophies, even if that can't be prohibited, the developer itself really have to lack any shame to do such a cheap thing to... sell? Well for me and I hope more people that has the exact opposite effect. In the game there isn't any trophy beyond stage 3 as I recall, you can get everything playing a few minutes, and again the worse part is the game is a really high quality one both visually and gameplay-wise, it could have really interesting and challenging trophies. I'll never buy anything from them again, and if they release a game that interests me I'll play on any of my region alt accounts. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eshaal Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 I've played and stacked quite few, but despite being easy platinums, I have,'t played about 20 from the list simply because I didn't like the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice generalisation, jackass. Have you ever thought that some of their games are actually enjoyable, entertaining and/or fun? Sure, there a games that Rata have released like Back In 1995 that I hated, but many people didn't. Games like DISTRAINT which I enjoyed the story to, others didn't. Not to mention people who enjoy the competition of the LB aren't "morons". They just hunt for a different reason than you do. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had assumed eventually that Ratalaika would start selling bundles of their games at a reduced price and the sudden lack of funds due to covid seems like a good time for it. You'll find other publishers, both games and blu-rays, are doing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just want numbers and dont care what games are on their profiles. To answer your question, Ratalaika will keep doing what they do, because most people cant stop themselves from buying their way to trophies. Totally agree with you.
