The percentages are derived from each individual trophy list a game has, which is mostly a regional thing. They can be divided up in all kinds of ways though. EDF 4.1 for example has 2 trophy lists, one for Japan, and another for the rest of the world. Which is a pretty big region. :) They both have different plat completion percentages. So it's "by trophy list". Most games have 2 or 3 lists. A few even have 4, like Armored Core V for the PS3, but that's pretty rare. I thiiiink there are an equally small amount of games with a single, worldwide list. Monster Hunter World looks like it does, but I can't confirm it 100% |
One important follow-up question: Do you suppose or guess this or is this factual information that you have?
Assuming you are right, this means that it is roughly tantamount to being per-continent/region as I can't imagine any given game having two lists in a same region with the exception of world wide lists and other types of arbitrarily divided lists.
So for most games and living in Europe I can assume any given rarity pans out to the entire EU which is better than my suspicions of the rarity being for my country only which is a small country and thus the rarity ratio, had the list only been for my country alone, not being that remarkable.
