Topic: The Trophy Discussion Thread

I really liked those games. I liked them much more than the Persona 4 dancing one which tried to fit a story in. I appreciate the effort but come on. Just wanna dance.

@nessisonett @Lightning_FF13 'congrats on the plats' guys 🥳

@Jimmer-jammer ah dude, I feel for ya! If I ever encounter any issues like this i usually resort to reddit and other message boards to see if anyone else has encountered the same issue. It's saved a few platinum journeys for me... 🤞 for you.

Just hit a major ‘sigh-of-relief’ moment in The Last of Us: Remastered. I missed out on all the artifacts (and therefore all collectibles) during my 100% collectibles run last week, through foolishly choosing not to bother checking through the stuff in Ellie’s rucksack during the Winter stage.

I had read that the two trophies attached to this act are very temperamental and might only pop during one playthrough, so collecting them during my Survivor+ run might not pop them… thankfully my crossing my toes and touching wood method, while searching through Ellie’s rucksack on this playthrough worked. Phew! 😅

@Jimmer-jammer any joy with yours?

Platinum#86: Sound Shapes
Continuing to clear the backlog.
First trophy obtained around 2 years ago. Finally got back to it last week to tackle death mode levels. Some of those were seriously at the extent of my reflexes and dexterity so very pleased to put this one behind me (finally!!!)

@Sorteddan well done bud, sounds like a satisfying one 👍

@colonelkilgore
Cheers.
Yes it was but now gonna have to take a break from gaming for an hour or few as my left hand hurts!

You still on track to finish survivor run this weekend?

@Sorteddan It’s looking more like Monday after I get home from work I reckon… that’s fine though. As long as I get it done before my day off on Wednesday… as I like to start something new when I got a long session ahead.

#38 - A Plague Tale: Innocence

Not a long or difficult platinum but it’s easy to miss a collectible or two, or miss one of the chapter specific trophies. Thankfully the chapter select makes mopping them up pretty straightforward.

Good work @Thrillho
Chuck another shiny on the pile

@Thrillho 👍… really looking forward to the sequel.

Just finished up Far Cry 5 for #99!! First game I've played in the series and I had a great time with it outside of the 20+ crashes lol. Gotta figure out what I wanna do for the big 100!!

Platinum no. 17 - Mafia: Definitive Edition. Gets very grindy towards the end but a seriously enjoyable game! Think this might be the first platinum I’ve gotten as part of Game Club actually 😂

@redd214 @nessisonett two games I really enjoyed myself well done guys.

@redd214 let us know which game you pick… I already have my 100th picked out and I’m only currently on 54 🤣

@Thrillho I've been quite enjoying playing a bit of Plague Tale between other games but think I've missed loads of collectables. Did you find any of them take much effort to get e.g. having to sneak about on the guarded sections?

@render I was really thorough trying to find them but still missed a few as some are really sneaky (one was in the battlefield level and you have to push a cart in a completely different direction to find it) and some you can still easily miss.

I missed one right at the end of chapter 9 despite specifically checking the area. I still had to do that level again to get “the hard way” trophy. Also, once you get a collectible it’s registered as found so you can immediately quit the level.

There are plenty of good guides to help if that’s all you need. The ones for upgrading your kit can be cheesed as there is a glitch that lets you do it easily which still works.

@render Also, once you’ve done a level already, I found I could zoom through if I wasn’t scouting for materials or collectibles and I already knew what I was doing.

@Thrillho Cheers, I'll probably try and mop those up then once I'm done as it doesn't sound like it's going to be too much of a chore. I've been through the battlefield section and did think there's bound to be something in there that I'm walking straight past 😂

Platinum #55 - The Last of Us: Remastered - honestly one of the most satisfying platinum trophies I’ve had the pleasure to have earned. Obviously a great game but I really hadn’t fully appreciated how great it is back when I played it in 2014… now two play-throughs later, I finally see that ‘the emperor had clothes on all along’ 😉.

Can’t wait to play Part 2…
