and Platty #105 for me with Bugsnax (PS5). Took me a while to click with this game but glad I stuck with it and even gladder to get it done and gone.

@Voltan @jdv95 @Sorteddan @Keith_Zissou Well done all, that’s a good bunch of platinums.

@Keith_Zissou Nice to see you enjoyed ME as much as I did. I also chose not to go down the insanity route as I didn’t want it to ruin my experience of the game. Do you think you’ll go straight into 2 or have a break? I was going to start 2 yesterday but ended up putting my Death Stranding disc back in just to take a look at the directors cut and it’s got its claws into me again so I might as well get the last few trophies I need for the plat on that.

@Sorteddan congrats mate, I know exactly what you mean about Bugsnax it was surprisingly decent (and quite funny)… but I couldn’t wait for it to be over, so I could move on to something else.

@Keith_Zissou congrats to you also, surprised by how quickly you got Mass Effect squared away, good work!

@RogerRoger Seven hundred??? I was planning on getting The Amazing Spider-Man on Vita just cause I thought it would be an alright game to play and hopefully platinum but no way I’m going after that many collectibles!

Just wrapped up the last few trophies I needed for the Death Stranding DC platinum. When I first started it up again I felt a bit lost even though I’d put in over a hundred hours on the PS4 version. It didn’t take too long to get up to speed again and reminded me why I spent so long in this world before as it’s just stunning to look at, and has some really chilled gameplay.

@RogerRoger Wow, you've been playing a lot of Spider-Man lately! Congrats to the Platinum trophies! I've actually been interested in checking out the first Amazing Spider-Man on PS3 since it's apparently a fairly solid Spidey game all things considered. Definitely won't go for the Platinum if you have to collect 700 things, but I think it'd be a fun superhero game to play in between all the other titles I've been playing.


Platinum #40: Invizimals: The Lost Kingdom (PS3)

Wasn't planning on going for this game's Platinum as it's a very mediocre game but I realised halfway through that I've been pretty much collecting everything anyway that I might as well go the extra mile and nab the Platinum. It's my first time experiencing this now forgotten PlayStation IP as the mainline games on PSP and Vita didn't appeal to me due to the AR gameplay. The Lost Kingdom on the other hand is a 3D platformer/beat 'em up game and while it was mediocre, I'm at least glad I got to experience this franchise.

@velio84 A big well done for that one. I know how much trouble those last ciphers caused you so you certainly had to work for it. I heartily agree that it would have been much better if they’d not been random. Hopefully with their next game they will be a bit kinder to us 😀

@RogerRoger Forgot to also congratulate you for your latest platinums. That’s an almost overwhelming number of collectibles. Gotta love trophies that require some real grinding 😉

@render @velio84 two great plats guys. I managed to get the Death Stranding one myself back on PS4, so I know the work that goes into that one. As for Returnal, I’ve heard all about how tough the plat can be. I’ll be playing it this year so I’ll be putting @velio84 on speed-dial for all my queries 😁

@Keith_Zissou It's well worth chasing it, such a great game. I've got a few of the DLC missions that I didn't need to do to finish off all the trophies and they also added some extra deliveries which I've been chipping away at so I might do them as well. As it's been a while since I last played all my ziplines that I carefully constructed have eroded and are mostly unusable so I've been back to doing things the hard way. Trudging through the snow in the high mountains and trying not to fall over when may cargo is double the height of Sam is still quite fun.

@colonelkilgore Cheers 👍 and yeah I think @velio84 has now become the foremost expert on Returnal ciphers or the lack there of 😆

@Keith_Zissou Nice one 😀. I have Legend of Legends for all 500 of the original deliveries but those time sensitive ones did take me some work to do. The ziplines helped with quite a few of them but there were still a couple that I ended up using a vehicle for as they were just too big to be able to take in one go just carrying it. I tried one of the new time sensitive ones the other day and only got a B because it was from one side of the mountains to the other. There's the new road that has been added on the DC so I'm going to keep adding mats to that to see if that will help once that delivery comes up again.

Keep On Keeping On 👍

@Keith_Zissou @render Sticking the difficulty up from the start obviously helps (but it's a bit late for you both!) and ziplines are often the way to go.

Focusing on the deliveries with the heaviest loads is the best way of bumping up the score for the categories you're struggling with rather than doing loads of little ones. I seem to remember some timed ones that you had to take massive loads across the map in a track which really boosted the score. Similarly, huge loads bump up your facility ranking much quicker too.

Obvious in hindsight but it saves lots of time rather than doing small deliveries over and over.

First Platinum of 2022.... Ghost of Tsushima (base game) - played on 'hard difficulty', but still felt quite gentle compared to previous conquests ha!

Platinum #3 - GoT

Now on to Iki Island, where the intention is to ramp up difficulty from Hard - - -> 'Lethal' (I may regret this

@CJD87 Nice!

Let us know how you get along with the Iki Island expansion. It seems divisive as to how good it is.

@CJD87 congrats buddy, I get what you mean… sometimes ‘gentle’ can be nice though right… ‘sometimes’ 😉

Platinum #75 - Deus Ex: Mankind Divided - phew! If anyone else is even considering going for this, a word of advice… the trophy guides out there that have this down as a 3/10 for Platinum difficulty are way off. For the game ‘maybe’… for the Breach Mode, add a few extra!
