@Keith_Zissou A heart congratulations for your DS platinum 🥳. It’s a really nice one to have in the collection and a nice reward for a highly rewarding game. I bet you’ll miss being Sam but good to know there’s an opportunity to return someday.

Keep on keeping on 👍

@CJD87 I’ve tried not to see too much about Sifu as I’m really keen to play it myself. It sounds brutal but I’m willing to bet if anyone can do it you can! Come on, use that deadline to power through 👍

@colonelkilgore Thanks for the encouragement mate... but it definitely feels like a tall order right now! Maybe one for yourself (aka 'The King of Horrendous Platinums') for the future?! ha!

@render - For sure mate, I actually think the 'deadline' element is spurring me on more than anything! An interesting game, but I would be very very hesitant to actually recommend it to anyone... Unlike Returnal, where the gameplay/immersion/challenge are all fun attributes, SIFU is basically just one tricky challenge to overcome!

@CJD87 I have it ordered for May, so I’ll definitely be giving it a go at some point. Even if they end up adding an Easy mode… I plan on using the default difficulty that you and everyone else has had to endure from its release.

I reckon you’ll be fine though mate… you’ve got a few tough plats yourself, might just have to power through a bit more pain and it’ll all fall into place.

The next game of the ol' backlog and 2nd plat of the year goes to THE PLAYROOM VR.
I can't believe the PSVR is that old, I know I got mine day one so this game must of been the first trophy I popped on it.

Edit: oops, 2nd plat of the year and 4th backlog game completed. Getting a head of myself there.

81 runs to complete the game, about 78 hours altogether!

@Thrillho
Excellent work, well done!

@Thrillho Amazing accolade and massive congrats!

Having loved the game myself, albeit I played on Switch, I can imagine that this Plat didn't feel too much of a chore?

Hades was a joy to play, put in 40-50 hours and loved every second. IMO it was robbed for GOTY in 2020!

@Thrillho Great work 👍. That’s not a bad number of runs, sure mine is easily over 100 and wouldn’t like to think how many hours I put in.

@RogerRoger @CJD87 @Sorteddan Thanks all.

It’s slightly weird as I don’t know where all that time went as successful runs take about 30-40 mins and there were quite a few unsuccessful ones early on especially!

I really enjoyed the game loop and, as I’d been saying in the game thread, you unlock weapons and traits at a steady pace and the game does a good job of making each run feel different and without ever making you feel like you were onto a loser from the start like in similar games.

There’s a surprising amount of story to help keep it interesting but the RNG of triggering dialogue to move things on can be annoying.

The platinum wasn’t too bad if you mixed up using the keepsake items early on as maxing those out takes a lot of runs. And then the high difficulty runs I did fairly easily at the end to get the all important plat-ping.

@render thanks to you too! (you snuck in there while I was writing that post out)

@RogerRoger thanks

@Thrillho very nice! I also have it on Switch so that plat must feel real sweat. Great game.

@Keith_Zissou I'm on the last mission of Chapter 3, though might make a detour to the Collector to get the backpack cover. (I hope that's not a spoiler? I don't know how to do the spoiler tags. Sorry!) I only get to play a couple of hours a week so I'll be on this for ages.

@Thrillho I missed this one it seems, congrats bud… it takes a good chunk of time and a fair amount of skill from what I gather, so well done.
