So, I’m a little disappointed in the trophy popping sound on PS5. It’s barely audible and it’s just a quieter little “ding!” Rather than the classic chime. It’s more subtle and less exciting of a sound.

@Th3solution The layout for trophy lists is also pretty terrible in my opinion. It's much harder to quickly look through them and you can't read the descriptions as easily.
Yeah I have the sounds muted for trophies. I know a lot of people have a problem with how trophies are presented on PS5, but I don't see the issue. Mind you, I don't spend a great deal of time looking at them. Have a look when I get one and I'm done.

Also, it was news to me to discover that PS5 trophies don’t show up on my PS4. Perhaps this was mentioned in an article about the UI or in someone’s comments on here, but I don’t remember it. It’s strange because I could have sworn that PS4 trophies would still populate your list when looking on your PS3. I’m pretty sure my PS3 and PS4 trophies still showed on my Vita.
It’s a minor thing, but now when I’m playing something on my PS4 (like Hitman last night) and I look at my trophy list after finishing a level (I like to just double check and gloat quietly of my achievements at the end of each play session) the newly earned Astrobot platinum is conspicuously absent. As time goes on, the PS4 list is going to be completely inaccurate.
I suppose it’s because of the new fancy tracking statistics that might just be too complex to put onto the PS4. But still — can’t they just list the trophies without the %complete mumbo-jumbo? Doesn’t seem like it would be that hard to do (me not being a computer programmer notwithstanding).
Also — I dislike the new trophy leveling system. I’m level 349, and I no longer care. When I was like level 27 and it was a big deal to jump one full level, that was much more interesting. Now I change levels and don’t even notice. I guess maybe when I hit 400 it will be monumental

@RogerRoger Such a weird little oversight as it’s quite annoying to have the ping ten minutes into watching something. I’ll have a look and see if that other setting works/exists though!
I turned off Auto HDR yesterday.... and immediately turned it back on. I think I've become accustomed to HDR now, but I thought it looked bloody awful.

Sony should let us customise the sound that trophy pings make. Like how you can change the noise your phone makes when you get a text. You could have the Metal Gear Solid ! noise every time you got a trophy. Or Kratos shouting "Boy!" They could sell these. This is a multi-million dollar idea and I'm giving it to them for free.
@RogerRoger Yeah mine too. I've left it in 'Game' mode as apparently that helps with things like reducing latency, but I have tweaked some of the picture settings. I had messed around them when I first bought the TV for my PS4, so didn't have to change too much.

@SoulChimera That was an issue for me during the first 2 months but after some updates I haven't had it since Dec/Jan. Hope that's the last time it happens to you.
