@Th3solution Rift Apart seems the same as many of the big hitter first party games (HZD, Spider-Man, TLOU2) in being very achievable without having to go too much out of your way. I hope you enjoyed the game though!

@colonelkilgore Thanks, and I had been planning to do Demon’s Souls soon. I do have a couple straggling unfinished games I may try to tidy up first though. We’ll see.

@Thrillho I did enjoy it, very much so. I’m considering writing an actual review of the game, but I’ll have to see if the time and motivation hit me. Overall it’s a game that grew more enjoyable over time for me. And I have no complaints about the length, like many people do. It was a really fantastic experience.

@RogerRoger Thanks! I suspect my next platinum post will be a while. I’m not nearly the platinum machine that some of our fellow expert Push Squarians are. This is just number 33 for me.

@colonelkilgore
Thanks...
Excelent. I will get back to it soon. Definately. Maybe. And yes like I said above going for #100 before 2022!

@Th3solution
Good job. That's one I'm looking forward to it I ever land a PS5!

@RogerRoger
...maybe, but not today because...

#97 just popped. Minit.
Yeah I kinda get the retro appeal of this but got stuck a few times and wasn't overly impressed with it.

Pre-emptive Platinum Posting?!

Permissible☺

@Voltan @Sorteddan in that case I could literally take this to May 2025 when I pop the Bloodborne Remaster/Remake plat for #150! 🤣

I do like it when a platinum pops without expecting it. Been playing Wreckfest just because well I found I quite enjoyed it and I had it from PS+ earlier in the year. It's a good chill out game for playing after other things (turns out that smashing up cars is a good way to let go of that stress of beating up or being beaten by bad guys!). Playing an online deathmatch and got wrecked for the 100th time to complete my trophy set, so basically I had to lose to win!

@RogerRoger I’m sure that you’re all over it mate… good luck with those 3 btw 😉

Hey, I might’ve gotten a little ahead of myself but it wasn’t empty words!

This was a nice long one. 78 hours total and less than a couple of them spent on what I’d consider an actual grind (as in: repeating the same battle for EXP). Can recommend.

@Voltan congratulations buddy, from reading your recent updates the feared post-game grind sounded like it was actually okay. I’ll be looking to swap this one into a slot early next year, all this talk has made me fancy giving my first Tales... a go 👍

temet nosce

Voltan

@colonelkilgore Yeah, in fact the 2 post game quests are one really long one with 6 boss battles in it and another that is just boss battles one after another They took about 5 or 6 hours that I originally expected to spend grinding and almost got me to the finish line.
I had to fight one of the bosses (as I found fighting regular enemies, even the high level ones, didn't grant me nearly enough EXP) a few more times to get the final few exp levels but it really wasn't too bad. Luckily these post game battles can basically be replayed at any time.
Much better trophy list design than Scarlet Nexus.

That's plat #32 btw

@Voltan
Fair play to ya, you did indeed back it up.

I promised myself earlier in the year that I wouldn't ever play another Tales game (after Beseria) but happy to know others still enjoy them.

“We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.”

Voltan

@Sorteddan Any particular reason for that? This was my first one and tbh I probably won't go back to the older ones but I'll keep an eye out for any future entries.

@Voltan
Too many characters I didn't care about. Repetitive battles. Having to change equipment on all characters too often. Too many systems for me to keep track of. Constantly being bombarded with 'skits' which weren't interesting or amusing...
And it lasts too long. Way too long.

I'm fairly sure that I once enjoyed these epic JRPGs. But I fear I have left that in a previous gaming incarnation.

“We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.”

Voltan

@Sorteddan I see. There's definitely a lot of 'skits' in this one too and it definitely was pretty long - but as I don't play these games that much (this has been a record year for me with 2 jRPGs in it ), I didn't get the chance to be burnt out
Still, I see Final Fantasy as the gold standard for the genre and ToA wasn't quite there with the best of them (but still good!).

...And platinum number 98 just achieved for Jydge (PS4). Great game, only needed one trophy to complete all but it was for achieving so medals on nightmare difficulty so bad been put off attempting it for a while. Found some vids on YouTube which showed suggested setups which really helped me get it done.
