Forums - Gaming Discussion - Trophies are a pointless waste of ones time and money and used to sell crappy games.

 

I hunt trophies...

For the plats. 20 12.50%
 
For the PSN level. 16 10.00%
 
To extend the life of a game I love. 75 46.88%
 
To make dull games more interesting. 6 3.75%
 
I have terrible OCD. 17 10.63%
 
All of the above. 26 16.25%
 
Total:160

Last time I tried to tell that trophies shouldn't exist, I got banned for a week.
So I won't say anything this time.
Have a nice day.

I'm not denying that, but that wasn't even the point of my original comment. I think they're a waste of time and if you actively seek to 100% a bunch of games you probably have too much time on your hands. 

I think you are being missunderstood here. You 100% games you love but don't trophy whore...right?

Well I don't even really go for 100% on games I love either. I only have like 5 or so games I've 100% (a couple of them being super easy games you can complete in a couple hours) but I haven't actively gone for achievements in a good while. My GS is just on the higher side because I've been playing on Xbox for a long time now so my GS is bound to be high if I played a decent amount of games over that past 8+ years.

Well you said you rarely try to and it's pointless. So...  did your outlook and opinion change? 

You admitting you had too much time on your hands?

Omg I can't believe I'm even talking about this Just come back to Skype so I don't have to publicly pwn u

Um no, the games you listed as examples take like 2 hours to do. I'm not actively going for achievements and haven't really gone for them since 2014 when I was trying to over take slade

Yet you recently put out a TA goal post in overtaking my gamerscore like two weeks ago........ 

I'm sorry, I had to. Still heart you Booble

P.S. Come back to Skype gay/drama chat featuring Reece.

Nothing wrong with giving people a few more reasons to fully complete your $60 videogame.

Plus, gaming communities are build around trophies and achievements. That is no bad thing. New friends can be found and trophy/achievement hunters find great new games thanks to the addiction

Great addition to the industry.



                            

I played Avatar, CSI, Fight Night, and many others for achievements only.

I'm the biggest offender xD

You're right, I'm supposed to be an ambassador. I'm sorry Noble

*Reads your reply to Noble about posting a goal 2 weeks ago*

I rarely try to 100% a game, seems pointless and too time consuming most of the time. Honestly you probably have too much time on your hands if getting every trophy/achievement is a thing for you.

Again, I think you guys missed the point of my comment.
