Mister Jack Posted December 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2018 (edited) Honestly, if you no-life the game you could probably get it in a couple of weeks, but I wasn't that devoted. I needed to take breaks from it whenever I got burnt out. None of the trophies are especially difficult, but the platinum does require all of the following: Six max level characters One max level hardcore character, which means no dying allowed 500 bounties completed Max level legendary items in every equipment slot 100 treasure goblins It takes a while to do all of that. Funny thing is that I am pretty sure I also own the PC version of the game on my Battle.net account that's currently gathering dust, but I never bothered going back to it since the console version of Diablo 3 is objectively superior. It feels weird to say that. Edited December 6, 2018 by Mister Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted December 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2018 Knocked out the platinum for Castlevania Requiem, which is Rondo of Blood and Symphony of the Night combined. It's not a super hard platinum, honestly, aside from getting through a whole level in Rondo without taking a single hit and getting 200.6% completion in Symphony, but Symphony is one of, if not my number one favorite game of all time. I've beaten it three times this year alone, but I like finally having a trophy list for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister Jack Posted December 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2018 Two castles. The first is 100% and the second is another 100%. For some reason, the second castle has slightly more map squares than the first despite being an inverted clone, which is where the extra .6% comes from.

Mister Jack Posted March 8, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) I mentioned elsewhere that I've been replaying the Kingdom Hearts collection on the PS4. I beat all the games on both discs so I decided to go back to do the side content and I have now officially beaten all of the superbosses in both KH1 and KH2 Final Mix! That's Ice Titan, Phantom, Kurt Zisa, The Unknown, Sepihiroth (twice!), The Lingering Will, and all 13 super buffed out rematch versions of the Organization XIII members. These are some of the hardest bosses Square Enix has ever made, and possibly some of the hardest bosses in all of gaming (especially Lingering Will) so I feel particularly accomplished with this one. Just to show I'm not exaggerating, here's just one of the Org XIII fights. It's not my footage, sadly, since I wasn't recording, but it gives you an idea of what you're up against. And now I've officially beaten all the superbosses from Birth by Sleep and Julius from Dream Drop Distance. Unfortunately, these guys were hard for the wrong reasons. They can't be hitstunned into a combo at any point, so hitting them with melee attacks is pretty much never going to be safe. The BBS bosses also attack constantly, which means the only reliable way to beat them is to abuse the invincibility frames you get while dodging and find very brief windows to fire off either physical skills with more invincibility frames or trap spells for them to run into. But hey, now I've beaten every superboss in the series, including the one in KH3 that I did a while back. I hope the DLC for that game adds more boss fights because it's a series staple at this point.

CorgiShinobi Posted March 11, 2019 Report Share Posted March 11, 2019 Oh yeah Xaldin was a real bastard and his.... *sees Final Mix* Oh Larxene, you cruel, cruel mistress. Never have I spammed Reflega in fear of my life. Speaking of, I've got something for the Beat thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted April 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 Got the Bloodborne platinum. This one is admittedly easier to get than the Dark Souls achievements because you don't have to do as much grinding and about 75% of them are just for beating all the bosses, but you do need to collect all the weapons and tools in the game as well as find a few extremely rare items. Getting the last trophy was uniquely difficult because it was for beating a certain boss, but the boss itself is actually pretty easy. The hard part is getting to her in the first place, because to even get the chance to fight her you have to work your way through several optional endgame dungeons. Not only do you need to farm specific materials to even gain access to these dungeons, but once you're inside the game really stops going easy on you. Several of the bosses you have to fight on the way to the actual boss you need for the trophy are way harder than she is. As if that wasn't enough, one of the dungeons has an absolutely sadistic modifier where your maximum HP is chopped in half and you have to fight three bosses with this handicap. After managing to do that, actually killing the game's true final boss at the very very end was a cakewalk by comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMightyEthan Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 Finally got the Platinum in Persona 5. Now I'm ready for P5R! Hell yeah! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted May 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 Well I can check the Persona 5 Royal platinum off of the list now. This one was actually easier to get than the vanilla version's platinum. You don't even have to beat the twins or complete the persona compendium, although you do have to beat the Reaper. It gives me the impression that they made the trophies specifically for people who already did everything in the last version and wouldn't feel like doing it a second time.

Mister Jack Posted June 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2020 Well, Nioh 2 is officially platinumed. It didn't take as long as I thought it would since New Game+ difficulty is much more generous with handing out skill points for your weapons. I had already mastered the katana and odachi during my normal playthrough and going through again on NG+ I was able to master two weapon types per day. I'm done for now, but I'm looking forward to the DLC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxicitizen Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 ↑ actual location of where I picked up my last memory chip. It was perfect, there was a song that started playing and everything. Kojima knew! On a more serious note, I guess preppers aren't just fucking idiots in real life. They're annoying as shit in this game, too! Getting these motherfuckers to join the UCA and then get five stars with them was the grindiest part of this by far. Also, I'm really not sure what happened here because I played through the entire story without any issues but at some point the game decided to shit itself and in the post-game I started constantly running into freezes with a "Now loading..." message. Sometimes I swear I couldn't go five fucking meters without getting another one, it was maddening! It was clearly a data streaming issue because it only happened when I was ziplining or driving, like I was moving too fast for the game to keep up. It's weird because I never experienced anything like it during the story and I have a feeling maybe something in the game's data started degrading or something because I also started getting crashes every now and then. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted August 10, 2020 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 Sweet Jesus, I liked that game but there was no way I was going to put in the effort for the platinum. Props. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxicitizen Posted August 11, 2020 Report Share Posted August 11, 2020 (edited) Couldn't stop, too many deliveries to make! edit: Oh and while I'm here I was hoping this would keep me busy a little longer while I wait for Control's Steam launch but I just burned through it in two days. I already had a bunch of powers unlocked from my first playthrough, though, so that probably made it a bit easier despite this playthrough being on hard. Oh well, guess I'll just have to replay Alan Wake too... Edited August 11, 2020 by FLD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxicitizen Posted November 4, 2020 Report Share Posted November 4, 2020 (edited) Wrapping up Witcher 3 just one achievement short of full completion was too annoying, I had to get my fix somewhere else! Also, freeing up that much space when I uninstalled it felt pretty good. So getting to uninstall these two as well served as extra motivation.

Mister Jack Posted January 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 Shadow of War platinum achieved. Kind of funny how I only went back to this game because Cyberpunk was a total bust and I needed to play something while waiting for the patch. Pretty cool game, though. Not the hardest platinum out there but you have to dedicate a decent amount of time to building up your armies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted January 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2021 Got the platinum for Trover Saves the Universe, but this is definitely a game that does not respect you for doing so because several of the trophies mock you for wasting time to get them. Spoiler Also the reward for getting all the collectibles is that Trover offers to turn the DS4 vibration up to maximum to help you masturbate.

Mister Jack Posted January 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners is officially platinumed. I ran into a bad glitch that required replaying the game to get every crafting recipe because one I needed had disappeared, but it gave me a chance to go for a different ending and the second playthrough was much faster so it wasn't the end of the world. What an amazing VR experience this was. I might try the new horde mode sometime, but for now I'm moving on to Star Wars: Squadrons. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
