@Thrillho @CJD87 cheers guys… well if I wasn’t already excited to finally get to Hades I am now eh 😉.

Also, @CJD87 yeah I played through Horizon Forbidden West in February and I really enjoyed it… seems like a lifetime ago though since starting Elden Ring. Not wanting to derail the trophy thread any further than I already have… I’ll start a thread about schedules and tag you to answer your question 👍

@colonelkilgore I meant to reply to you yesterday regarding this but got sidetracked and totally forgot. Seems like everyone else has already given you some good advice on these anyway but I'm sure you'll love both Hades and Returnal.

Having started to dip back into Returnal again to play the DLC I'm reminded of how good the gameplay is. I also think they did a good job with the story and the way that it worked with the roguelike mechanic even if it doesn't do as good a job as Hades does in that respect. Saying that Returnal grabbed me more than Hades as a whole package.

My wife has just picked Hades up again after a good break and she's enjoying it so much that I'm having to compromise on sharing the PS5. Well basically the compromise is usually that I get to play Elden Ring when she's finished a Hades run as she's normally finished work before me 😂.

@colonelkilgore Oh @missusrender is a pest. I start playing a game and she's all "that doesn't look like my sort of game" or "that looks rubbish", then she gives it a go and I'm having to wrestle the damn controller out of her hands. I thought by buying a Switch I could distract her enough that she wouldn't want to play on the PS5 but it didn't work. I've definitely thought about buying a second one and it might well happen yet 😆

So I've been away for a really long time about year since I last posted but I've managed to grab a few Platinums in that time

Days Gone (loved this game so much more than I expected)
God of War, 3rd playthrough but managed to stick around for the plat
Ghost of tsushima. Beautiful game, felt like the type of game that deserved me taking some extra time to Platinum

Also 1 trophy away for Assassins Creed Oddesy, I will go back to get it but after completing the game and the dlc that one trophy will have to wait because it really burnt me out by the end of the dlc even though I really enjoyed the game altogether one of the best Assassins Creed games I've played.

Hopefully soon can add bloodborne to this list as currently working though it.

@colonelkilgore thanks, I'm not the biggest trophy hunter but seem to be getting the bug a bit more.

I don't think I'd ever get a game to get the plat but it has made me appreciate the games I have Plated a little more. Taken thar extra few hours sometimes has made me see and do things in the games I would have definitely missed.

@MaulTsir yeah likewise… plat hunting has improved my gaming enjoyment a fair old bit in fairness.

@MaulTsir Welcome back and well done on those shiny platinums. I haven't played Bloodborne but will get around to it one day as everyone raves about it. Good luck 😀

MaulTsir

@render thank you. I'm not a big from software guy and bloodborne is the only one I've played so far but I can't recommend it enough and to be fair it still holds up really well.

@MaulTsir
Well welcome back and we'll done on your plats. That's some mighty impressive open world adventuring you must've been doing while away!

That’s a wrap on the platinum for Elden Ring. Tidying up the bits I’d got left didn’t take me too long at all but all in I’ve spent 120 hours somewhere. Most of that will have been wondering aimlessly but still a considerable amount will have been from dying over and over, oh and swearing at a man on a horse!

platinum 21 goes to HFW.

around 80 hours of playtime.

@velio84 Cheers 🍻.

Trying to weigh it up I’d actually say that Malenia is probably the better boss design even if I didn’t enjoy the fight too much.

I don’t know what I was expecting for the last boss but it felt like a bit of a cop out, especially phase 2 both for the actual design and those crazy magic attacks. It seemed like it was a more rubbish version of one of the dragons in the game. Maybe they’d just run out of ideas for how to implement their vision for the end of the story and that’s how it ended up 🤷‍♂️

@RogerRoger @Sorteddan thanks! Yeah I had a lot of time due to illness but i managed to get through a lot of games so always a bright side 😁 back to work now though so normal game time has resumed and progress will definitely slow!

@render congrats on an impressive plat

@jdv95 congrats I loved the first game After expecting to hate it so can't wait to play this one

MaulTsir

@jdv95 I managed to miss your message when I checked earlier but good job on that HFW platinum.

@MaulTsir Cheers. Others will have definitely done it with more style but I managed to drag myself through it and enjoyed the challenge 👍

Congrats @render, proper platinum that… hopefully I won’t be too far behind 😉. And also to @jdv95 too 👏

@colonelkilgore Cheers 👍. I'm actually surprised I finished it so soon but think I got lucky with some of my choices with regards to platinum progression. It does feel like a well earned achievement after all that Malenia business 😂

render

@RogerRoger Cheers mate. Think you'll be going for the platinum on LEGO Star Wars?

Platinum #80 - Elden Ring - minus a little bug for the last trophy that gave me the onset of conniptions 😅… it was my genuine pleasure.
