@Gremio108 Yeah, the cutscenes with the mafia and stuff were pretty good but I would have liked a bit more of an overarching narrative. It was doing so much new at the time that I can forgive it though!
Awesome, just managed to get the last of the Dying Light online trophies at half-time during the rugby... was quite hectic as I’ve been on the discord all day looking for players and 2 popped up during half-time. I then had to find a fourth (including myself and the other two) while in-game being mauled by zombers... somehow I found somebody and the Polyamory Trophy popped.
I’m sure there will be further challenges but that ‘should’ ensure the platinum.
My son just got his first platinum in Fallen Order and I might be more excited then when he first walked lol!!! Raising another generation of trophy hunters!!
@colonelkilgore I've been doing this for years, just take your time and have fun ! Right now I'm playing F1 2020, Borderlands 3 and Sekiro. I'm not sure which one will come first. We'll see !
@Sorteddan My first platinum was DIRT 2, all the way back to 2010 !
Platinum number 65 for me with A Plague Tale: Innocence, a great little game. I missed some collectibles and some chapter specific trophies from the first time I played it and despite there being chapter select afterwards I had missed something in almost every chapter so I just started again with a guide. I hope Asobo studios is doing another of their own games in-between helping other studios as they seem to have lots of potential.
That's 4 platinums in as many weeks with Walking Dead 3&4 and Space Crew also done (yeah easy ones). I'm trying to clear up a few games I've been meaning to go back and mop up the remaining trophies so I can delete them and get my backlog down. Oxenfree mean and silent runs next I think.
@Cornaboyzzz That's an impressive amount even for a decade.
So, for hours a day, multiple days a week for the last year or two, I've been obsessively playing Woah Dave! on my Vita in pursuit of the last trophy I needed, "Call Me Aaron Burr," which requires the player to collect 1000 pennies. This goal is especially hard on the "bonkers" difficulty, which is the only one where enemies spawn fast enough to make obtaining this trophy feasible. I've died countless times going for this trophy, as it requires a frankly absurd amount of focus and razor sharp reflexes over a long period of time to accumulate this many.
Finally, FINALLY. I got it this morning. And I didn't just get to that 1000 pennies threshold: I actually managed to collect more than 1500 pennies! It was, frankly, a unprecedented run for me.
@Ralizah impressive dedication there... some plats just mean more than others in ones collection. I imagine that when you look back in around a years time this one will be one such plat.
@Ralizah
I kinda remember playing it a few years back. Old school arcade stuff as I recall. Didn't really stick with it so admire your dedication. And I know your feeling of now being free from it but do you think that part of you will miss the routine of putting the regular hours in? Kind of like giving up a hobby.

@Sorteddan Oh, totally. There were so many times I picked that stupid game up while watching a podcast, or listening to music, or what have you. It very much became a routine, and it'll leave a bit of a hole in my day for a while.
Apparently it has been six years since I earned my first trophy in it, lmao.
@Cornaboyzzz Ah, thanks. I completely forgot PSProfiles was a thing. I went back and updated my profile.
It's too bad I'm not primarily a Playstation gamer. My trophy numbers wouldn't be quite so piddly otherwise.

@JohnnyShoulder the fact @Ralizah ended her post with “I’m free! Free!’ suggests that even if it was fun once... it hasn’t been that for a hot minute 🤔
@JohnnyShoulder@colonelkilgore There does seem to be a generalized devaluation of other trophy types compared to the platinum, doesn't there? I guess that's what happens when Sony makes one trophy type more valuable than the others to your cumulative score. Never bothered me, though: there are mindlessly easy platinums to achieve and brutally difficult gold and silver trophies. I attach value to the experience itself, not the digital trinket.
I don't dislike the game (I usually just stop playing games I dislike), but I can't say beating my head against the same rock for so many months was particularly fun, either. To be honest, I feel less of a sense of achievement than one of relief, but, all the same, there is a small part of me that will miss the grind.
The one really crucial factor is that it was on the Vita, though. Having that console sitting close by, ready to pick up for one more go while I was doing something else, was the only reason I didn't abandon my quest long ago. It's a pity remote play doesn't work well for me. If I could play the PS4 version of Rayman Legends on my Vita, I'd likely already have that one horrible trophy that requires grinding the special challenges for months to boost your level of awesomeness.
