I mean... Timezone permitting, I'm sensing a way through here...

I finally got the rest of the Dark Souls III trophies. Powerpyx rates this one as being easier than Dark Souls Remastered but that's bullshit. This was one of the most grueling platinums I've ever gotten. Top 5 for sure. Not only is the game a lot harder than DS1, but even once you get used to it you are not only required to play the game three times to get all the rings but you also have to farm covenant items, some of which have drop rates of 1% or less. And you need thirty of the fucking things! PER COVENANT! I had to resort to joining a DS3 Discord to help me farm some of those items, but even then there are still a few where you have no choice but to grind out those 1% drop rates because the PVP scene is not nearly what it used to be. If I hadn't been so tantalizingly close to the platinum I never would have done it. It occurred to me that I don't have the platinum for the Demon's Souls Remake yet, but I really have to ask myself if I want to deal with the world tendency bullshit to get it. I hated that on the PS3 and I still hate it on the PS5.

Me: Abandoning the way of strength, sacrificing everything to become a bloodlord, levelling up arcane all the way, all just to defeat this one boss. This crazy maniac playing as a lvl 1 wretch: That's insane lol

Dark Souls Remastered, you have officially been platinumed. Now to put you away and probably never play you again because your younger brother has utterly surpassed you. Grinding for all the rare weapons, not to mention the sunlight covenant that requires 25 faith (who the hell levels faith?!) was a total slog.
