@colonelkilgore Good to know. If you're having a crack at GTA V next, I could potentially be available to help crank out online trophies if the need ever arises. Pretty sure it's still installed on my PS4.
@colonelkilgore You're certainly organised 😄. Maybe I'll download the PS5 version and transfer my save to see what it's like on that.
Are you returning to that (GTA V) or starting from scratch?
@BearsEatBeets so I’m gonna plat the PS4 version as I’ve already got the entry on my trophy list. ‘It’s’ gotten to that point where if it’s on the list, then I’d rather complete the lesser version than start and complete the optimal experience (& leave something un-plat’d on my profile… ewe !😅). Yes… I have a problem okay… I thought that much was obvious 🤭
@colonelkilgore when talking rarity I go by the psnprofiles standard, more inline with how rare the trinkets are among trophy hunters. RDR2 is a 2.32% ultra rare plat, definitely not something to sneeze at.

@WCB I’m not on PSN profiles but get that the trophies will always be less-rare/more-common amongst a group who purposefully pursue platinums. In this age of inclusion and diversity though, I’ll stick to the rarity of everyone who has played the game… as I don’t wanna be accused of leaving anyone out 😉
@colonelkilgore Wow... This is a real achievement. Huge congrats ! Definitely contrasting with my last one...
#339 Virginia - Unfortunately, I'm not gonna be nice with this one. Everything in this game felt lazy, the story where nothing happens, the lack of dialogue, the simplistic character design, the inexistent gameplay... Everything could have been so much more, but it's just not enough. Oh, and the last part of the game doesn't make any sense. The worst game I've played for a long time. It's a 2-hour plat but is it worth it ? I'm not even sure.
@WCB yeah I do plan on joining tbh. I’m trying to get my overall completion percentage to 70% before I do so though… I’m not far off, think I’m at about 68% atm.
A bit of an unexpected entry here... managed to pick up a physical copy for a good deal, and thought I'd take a brief break from Bloodborne to give Thymesia a whirl. 30hrs later and that's a platinum scooped
For any Souls fans here, and especially those who rank Sekiro as their #1 FromSoft title, I'd definitely recommend Thymesia - or at the very least I'd advise you add it to your wishlists and wait for a sale.
Level design and enemy repetition are very weak, but the combat system is remarkably tight + some of the boss battles are really engaging. This would also be a nice Plat-hunt for those that are wanting to avoid a 1000hr RDR2 marathon
I'm always aware that I'm in the presence of greatness within this thread, but nonetheless I feel compelled to bring my menial #6 'to the table'!
On a serious note, well done to all on recent achievements - especially @colonelkilgore on Red Dead. I checked the stats and requirements on PSN profiles.... looks like more of a lifestyle than a hobby!!
Full list below:
#1 Returnal (+all DLC trophies)
#2 Demon's Souls
#3 Ghost of Tsushima (+Iki Island DLC trophies)
#4 Elden Ring
#5 Nioh 1 (base game only, no DLC)
#6 Thymesia
On a separate note, just seen that currently the % completion for Elden Ring's platinum (11.4%) is slightly higher than Ghost (10.9%)! Really encouraging for FromSoftware, and testament to how 'right' they got the trophy requirements IMO.... especially considering how obtuse Demon's Souls plat is!
@CJD87
looks like you go for a quality over quantity approach to your platinum collecting based on your achievements so far. Thems some impressive trinkets you got there!
Well done with your latest.
“We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.”
@CJD87 Nice one. And like @sorteddan said, your 6 are all pretty impressive. Although I don’t have any “My Name is Mayo” or “Stroke the Dog” types of plats, I do have a handful of Telltale games and shorter indies amongst my 37. I think my rarest might be Dirt 5, which for some reason is 1.2%, which is falsely rarified based on a boatload of people playing it for free and never really spending any time with it. Same goes with a 3.3% rarity for Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture and some other PS+ games that just have a high player count that try the game for 15 minutes and never play it again. 😅
@CJD87 I’ve said it before about your list and will undoubtedly say it again… it is a fine list of platinums and each of them are to be proud of. All killer, no filler!
Glad to hear someone speak on Thymesia, I’m really looking forward to getting my teeth into that one and good to know that it’s combat is its strength going in. Much congrats on popping its platinum.
Red Dead 2 didn’t quite take 1000 hours… but its plat certainly takes some commitment. Worth every hour though in all honesty… I’ve been gaming 40 years now and it was a rare 10/10 experience. If you’re ever looking for something a bit different to the melee-heavy souls-likes that we both enjoy so much, I couldn’t recommend it high enough.
@RogerRoger Thanks mate and yes it definitely scratched the Sekiro-itch… almost makes me want to revisit (unlikely though, still having nightmares about the 2 weeks it took to take down the final boss ha)
@Th3solution Yeh there is definitely something to be said for attaining ‘shorter’ platinums, especially as games seem to be getting longer and longer these days! 37 is good going….
@colonelkilgore knowing your tastes, I’d highly recommend you keep your eyes peeled for Thymesia on sale - it would be well worth the admission price at 50% off, an absolute steal (although please don’t prioritise this above playing Returnal lol!)
And wow that is high praise for RDR2. I can imagine you truly have to love the experience of such a game to be spurred on to smash a platinum with such lengthy and intricate requirements - well done indeed
Having a break from trophy chasing for a couple of weeks, want to throw myself into the new Monkey Island on Switch… ready for a change of pace!
@nessisonett Kind words indeed mate, but those Lego requirements seem brutal.... not to mention the collectable grind. Skywalker Saga @ 2% Plat...vs Returnal @ 2.2% (!!!)
How was Blasphemous btw? I have it on Switch, not dabbled but its in backlog
