News Don't Expect to Unlock Dissidia Final Fantasy NT's Platinum Trophy
Ouch
Every now and then, developers like to show their disdain for system-wide achievement systems by concocting impossible Trophy sets. The studio behind Dissidia Final Fantasy NT is one such team, as its trinkets look downright disgustingly difficult. You’ll need to, for example, win a whopping 30 ranked matches without taking a single point of...
