Got two today. #146 was Cocoon (PS4) and #147 was Cocoon (PS5). Pretty fun, but didn’t know what the hell was going on with the story.
Two plats in one day — that’s some serious dedication! I’ve heard Cocoon has a really clever puzzle design, even if the story leaves you scratching your head a bit. It’s one of those games where you’re not entirely sure what’s going on, but the gameplay loop and the visual storytelling keep pulling you in. The way it layers the worlds inside each other is such a cool concept, reminds me a bit of Inside or The Witness in how abstract yet satisfying it feels. Definitely one I’ve been meaning to check out myself.

It’s one of the free games for October if you haven’t picked it up yet.
After my third playthrough, taking just under 200hrs (over 700 for all 3), I have finally achieved my landmark platinum....
Platinum #150 Baldur's Gate 3
Really chuffed to have got this one as it is one of my favourite games that also takes some effort. Much like RDR2 and Witcher 3. To be fair the Tactician difficulty didn't end one being as hard as I thought it might have been but the knowledge gained from my earlier playthroughs helped.
With not playing anything else for a while, and the remaining trophies I needed for this coming near the end of the game (Tactician, Dark Urge stuff), I've been on quite a trophy drought. Baring the few needed to complete this yesterday/today, the only other trophies I've gotten since 22nd July is a couple from Aliens Fireteam Elite teaming up the guys doing their plats from here.
I might need to find some quick ones from my library to get the ball rolling again.
Thanks @CaptD. Yeah I saw about Cocoon so gave that a play today. Whilst I enjoyed figuring out how to proceed I really didn't like the 'boss' fights or the floating/shooting sections. Totally ruined the game for me. I can't say I'm looking for insta-fail sections that send you back to the start in a puzzle game.
I know they don't take too many attempts to get past but I just found them annoying and tedious.
At least the 3 collectible things I missed could be mopped up in literally less than 5 mins.
I played the PS4 version and thought I might double up on the PS5 as well as it's pretty quick but not sure I can be bothered to go through it again for those parts. Maybe if I'm looking to fill some numbers to line up platinum 200 for something good when I get there (probably long way off yet).
@BearsEatsBeets
Totally agree about the bosses and I actually mentioned this in another thread, whilst I can see the effort that they have put into most of them (certainly not all as you will find out) they just seemed a bit meh. Thankfully they aren’t too difficult but they often terminated my play sessions which is why it took me over a week to finish the game.
As for platinum milestones, I too have one coming up and have been trying to find a game with a decent platinum description, none of this “Platinum Trophy” rubbish. I was looking at next weeks PS Plus game WRC 24 and the platinum is called “Completed it mate” which is quite funny so I might go for that.
Other than that I was thinking of the Alien Rogue Incursion VR platinum but I’m not sure I will be able to obtain that,
