Playing the game normally, shooting for most trophies:

Even thinking about the Platinum:

Who needs Metacritic when we have Reggie?

A game should be challenging, not frustrating. If it's frustrating, it's not challenging, it's dumb.
Don't reward counterintuitive design with your time.

Fight the OCD! Your greatest enemy is your own shadow!

Anyway, this game is good, I recommend it.

I dind't find doing the platinum frustrating. Those plat times were pretty fun.

For me, it's having to find all the boxes without dying. Which would be fine, but...well, those concerns have been raised elsewhere!
For games like this, less is more. There are too many mechanics introduced for my taste.

It's a mixture of long levels (with many boxes) and bogus mistakes that can and will ruin elaborate efforts.
Stuff like depth perception, hitboxes not registering, and slightly off jumps during an autoscroller.
It's like building a house of cards in a very minor storm.

While I haven't done any of the trials yet, the relics seem like a respectable challenge.
I'll beat the game before attempting them. I think those will be fun, I'm glad you enjoy them.

The Platinum is certainly doable. I just don't wanna do it!
Of course, the difficulty of this Platinum makes it even more valuable.
I think I'll get it eventually. I'll randomly decide to complete one hard level and leave it at that for the entire day. 

Congratulations on the Platinum! That's an impressive feat, you truly earned it. ?
