| Louie_86 said: I dont think most people care about this as much as you do. I like trophy/achievement support because often times it will tell me about content in the game that I havent experienced, but I dont compare the amount of trophies I have with other people or wether it was too easy or too hard to plat a game. That seems unimportant. Its normal that some games are gonna be easier to plat than others. High profile games rarely are very easy to plat. |
Nah, I think a lot of people have got on board in the last few years, Platinum rates are ever increasing albeit, many games have more easy platinums, like you mentioned but that same thing is what got us all hooked, I think when people get their first plat it isn't their last and they plat games that they love gping forward. I only do that myself, so no, ot's not that I care like I'm one .01%er. Nah, there are many millions of us out there. Now it's not just easy and short games either (although Adtrobot foes have some amount of chalange in it as I hear) but to see Ff Rebirth Platinum at over 2% is wild considering it takes actual skill to do it and it could take over 200 hours depending on your skill level and wheter you planned for it or not, I'm not one to go that far, very rarely but I like plating games that I've finished but haven't lost interest yet and the platinum extends the life of the game. Like I extended MGS5 from an eighty hour game into a 250 hour game cause of the platinum andnI ringtone loose interest in the game cause it's so good and it gave me so much more goals and content to engage with the game.
I think there are millions of us now and more coming in all the yime as people display their plats on social media and see their friends plating games, the ones in-between no trophy hunting and trophy whoring, we just wanna see that ultimate sign off on a game we love and end up plating like a hafe dozen games a year and I think PS wrap up confirmed this wcause all the numbers are so similar to mine. If there 1.5 million people in Elden Ring going for the platinum and looking up guides then the number of semi casual Trophy Hunters has to be much more than that since not everyone likes the same games. I'm gonna give a wild guess and say 10% of PS4 and PS5 gamers are casual Teophy Hunters in the way mentioned and I'm probably under cutting that. Astrobot is at 20 percent like, that 400k people that went that far, many games 30% is the general average of who simply finish video games but now, platinum numbers are closing in to meet that average.
Idk, I wish Sony would give some kind of stat release as to how many players do trophies and plats per year and what now compared to the install base. That'd be cool.
