He will never learn of the fulfillment of trophies.


Why would he need to when Achievements started it all?

Points are boring. But a trophy, now that is something.

Points don't distinguish between achievements. He could have mad 100k 10 point achievements or 1k 1000 point achievements. Who knows.

But look at a PSN profile and you can instantly see how the gold and platinum trophy ratio is.


It doesn't matter the type of achievements he got if it adds up to 1 million points. There are no 1000 point achievements, retail games are 1000 points. I'm sure he has a shitload of completed games (Platinums).

It's a symbolic thing. Getting a trophy ironically feels more like an achievement than just getting points. The platinum trophy you get will always be there and shine as a big achievement on your profile. But points just feel so abstract and cold and unless you dig deep into the achievement lists to see where those points actually come from.

Not to belittle his achievements but to me it would kinda feel empty.

 

But wait, every retail game has the same amount of points?

Honestly when you click on someone's profile or on your self you get the total number of games that you have completed..  The platinum trophy is fine if the game have one, Outlast don't have one so you are stuck with some gold trophies..
