Forums - Gaming Discussion - Do "Easy" Platinum's stain your trophy list or make you feel ashamed?

 

I dismiss someones trophy list if there is obvious whoring goin on...

Yes 20 13.33%
 
No. 89 59.33%
 
Only if there is a high r... 24 16.00%
 
I have no opinion....on anything...ever... 17 11.33%
 
Total:150

I have no issue with it. I try to plat any games I get regardless of if it's easy or not. The only time I don't complete games is if I don't like it, straight up hate the game, or don't have the time to do so. I try to avoid games with online trophies though.

I don't play easy games for trophies. I play what I want to play and earn trophies. If the trophy list is easy whatever, but forcing myself to play through shit games for easy trophies is something I wouldn't do.



If the game is good, then I don't necessarily mind a game having an easy Platinum trophy. Also, trophies aren't exactly what would convince me to buy a game, because if that were the case, then I wouldn't have achieved some of my hardest or longest Platinums such as Killzone 2, Resistance 2, Batman: Arkham Origins, Call of Duty: World at War, Diablo III: Reaper of Souls, and even Battlefield 3. Granted, I have some of my easiest Platinum trophies like Megamind the Video Game, which was a rental because I had nothing better to play anyways, but in general, as long as a game is great, I don't mind too much.

Currently, I'm working on the Platinum trophy for Killzone Shadow Fall, which is infamous for having a long platinum that takes even takes longer than say Resistance 2, but no where near as difficult as Killzone 2, even after Guerilla decided to all Trophy Progression on Online Botzones, which not only makes some of the hardest/longest abilities to get legitimately easier, but also boost your stats if you somehow believe a KD ratio even matters anyways (Holy run-on sentence, Batman!). Just need to finish the Stun Blast ability and I can finally say I have all Killzone Platinum trophies, until Killzone 5 comes and I still have DLC trophies to get anyways. Afterwards, I'm going to finish Star Wars: Battlefront 2015, and it's not as bad as the trophy rarity would state on PSNProfiles, actually, it's probably easier than Killzone: Shadow Fall.

On the extra note, I'll never allow Hannah Montana: The Movie: The Game to touch my library, I rather not be called a trophy whore for having the game tainting my profile.



Nope. Completion is completion. Just a death march finish from witcher 3..... As I finish the walking dead s1 for the second time on a second console. They compliment the harder platinums.



I figure as long as I'm playing a game I like, may as well try to 100% it. The only shame in a plat, in my eyes, is intentionally playing a game just for easy trophies. But hey, at least you're playing games and not just watching them on YouTube or arguing online about them.

To me, achievements and trophies are just there.

Sure I feel accomplished for some of he hard to get ones, but I'm not one to brag about them, I guess.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

I don't typically go after the super easy ones, but I do Plat games I like (inFAMOUS, DCUO).

I take pride in my Platinums for Demon's Souls and Bloodborne. Dark Souls II: SotFS was also a fun time, and I wouldn't mind doing it all over again for the normal DS2 platinum. I do need to work on Dark Souls 1... But I need a buddy to keep me going on it.

I feel my next platinum will likely be Dark Souls III, though. I also intend to platinum Ni-Oh when it comes out, and eventually I'll get around to getting my Platinums for the Kingdom Hearts Remixes.

I figured something out: all the shitty elitist threads like this, are made by kids who literally have nothing better to do, and suck off their parents' teets.

Honestly, Scratchy, you haven't contributed to this website in a positive fashion at all since you got here. Nothing you've said could possibly be anything someone of a normal temperament could back up, and you only hurt the side of the arguments you take with that attitude. 

 

I hope the moderators look more closely into your post history and agree with me on this. If they saw the way you act, your next strike could very well be your last. With that in mind, how about a little bit of respect? Both for those around you... And for yourself.

Just have to say your Souls/Blood/Nioh post is exactly what I intend as well xP
Though not exactly Dark Souls, just Bloodborne and Nioh ('cause Demon's is the Souls one I wanted, and got it).

Don't care much about trophies but if it makes me wanting to play even a bit more of such awesome stuff, yeah, I can go for them xD

Yeah, a trophy is a nice marker to say "I have to pay the game this far and this is my excuse for doing so".

 

Maybe one day we can get a PS4 release for LoD, and the Platinum could be "Hit a perfect Addition with Lloyd's Second Addition twice in a row" -___-;

 

(I fucking hate that addition... The one where he sounds around like six times? Hurricane? Typhoon? I dunno, I need to play it again)

A platinum is fine, my issue comes from the games I play, don't like but earn 1 trophy from. They sit there with the insulting 'Bronze' on my list and I can't get rid of it. I really don't care if I completed part of the tutorial in Grid 2, Grid 2 was crap.



Hmm, pie.
