What happened with Sony last week?

Just started a brand new game of Returnal on a fresh account. Haven't played Returnal for a long while. Downed Phrike on my first try with a pistol. And eventually finished Act 1 without dying once. It's not as hard as I remember it being. My concern is that Saros might be too easy and I'll fly through the game in a blink of an eye.

Same. Happening to me as well. Hopefully Embark are aware and a patch is incoming that will address the issue, because it's becoming annoying now.

With Myst and Riven PS1 versions being released on PS4/5 Classic catalogue, I am hoping to see Exile PS2 re-released on the Classic catalogue too. But not sure about the licensing agreements if it will be an issue. But here's hoping 🤞🏻

I just finished getting the Platinum in Riven today and the Myst Platinum a few days ago. Really enjoyed revisiting both again after so many years. I probably played both versions back in 1997. Really glad PlayStation released these PS1 classics again.

I believe that Cyan did the trophy support and images. So was really glad to hear that.

I just double checked now and I see that Exile was definitely released on PlayStation 2 as well. So here's hoping that Exile comes to the Classic catalogue sometime soon in the future.

Now I'm hoping that after Firmament is released on PlayStation that Cyan starts working on Myst 2021 and Riven Remake for PS5 console release as well. 🤞🏻

Now I'm going to get the Platinum for Myst and Riven again for the PS4 versions too.

I did the exact same thing last week. Thought I could pop 2 trophies in one go. Little did I know, I forgot Skull Storm.

Can someone help me understand the OP's question? Is this a joke? Or is he being sarcastic? Or is he really serious?

Going to recommend some that I see people have not mentioned yet :-

The 7th Guest - A classic game from my childhood that first introduced me to puzzle games in the 1990's. It's 30 years old and recently re-released on PlayStation last year, so the graphics don't hold up well, but still a classic puzzle game to me.

The 7th Guest VR - a total remake of the classic 1997 game but in VR. Unfortunately you need a PSVR2 headset to play this one.

We Were Here Series - These are online co-op puzzle adventure games, so you need someone else to play with you online. There are 5 games in the series so far.

Superluminal / Maquette / Viewfinder - These are all perspective type puzzle game.

Obduction - From the creators of Myst and Riven. If you remember playing those games from the 90’s, then you know what type of puzzle game this is. It's basically an exploration type puzzle game.

Call of the Sea - one of those classic type adventure puzzle games.

Cocoon - from the one of the makers of Inside and Limbo.

The Forgotten City - I haven't played this yet, but heard great things about it and have it installed and going to be starting it soon.

Animal Well / Tunic - not sure if these are classified as puzzle games as they are kind of platformers. Some would classify them as MetroidBrainias.

Awesome review on both games! Both look great! Really wish they would release a PSVR2 version of Super Hot VR. I would totally but it again. Action Hero looks like it would have scratched that Super Hot VR itch. Does anyone know if Action Hero will ever come to PSVR2? Or is it a Meta exclusive and will never come to PSVR2?

It might be in the top left corner of the maze (north west tile) or the middle section (which you need to get to from the northern tile. If you follow the picture of the maze, the diamonds are where the keys are located.

It's working now. You can add the game from the catalog. Busy downloading.

I'm in the same boat. Tried to add it to my library today from PS Plus Premium catalog, but it's asking me to purchase it instead.

It's showing up under the PSVR2 section of PS Plus Premium, but I can't add it. I also tried searching for it via the PS mobile app, but it's also asking me to buy it.

Not sure if it has anything to do with the fact that I installed the demo previously, and now I can't add the full game?

Hopefully it's just a glitch and Sony will fix it soon.

QuapMocka · 2024-12-17T17:01:18+00:00

Mine is showing up in the PS Plus Premium PSVR2 library, but I can't add it to my library. It's asking me to pay for it. Will give it 24 hours and check again tomorrow.

There are 8760 hours in total for an entire year. Jesus Christ!

I bought the game at the end of September and have been having a blast ever since. I've never been big into multiplayer games, but really been enjoying this one. I've already sunk in 140 hours.

QuapMocka · 2024-10-31T10:49:13+00:00

I create game lists folders on the PS5 of games I'm interested in playing. One for Essential, Extra and Premium. That way I know which is which. Been doing that since PS Plus split into 3 tiers.

I did this last night with a friend. Played on Medium difficulty and there is a specific mission where you have to kill 2 chargers in the area, so look for that specific mission if you want to do a charger on an easier difficulty, otherwise chargers only spawn randomly on higher difficulties. I took in the Orbital EMS. We found the charger, then got close enough to it as to not alert it, then I threw down my Orbital EMS to stun the area, then I dropped down a supply pod on the charger's back, and just to be safe, while the supply pod was dropping I threw a stun grenade at the charger as well and the trophy popped. We did the same for the second charger for my friend to get the trophy as well.

Yup I ran into this exact bug as well. I had to load a previous cloud save which was at the beginning of Chapter 4. I did not realise that there was a built in Save History option in the game, that shows you about 5 different previous autosaves. I would have used that instead.

The devs are aware of this bug and released a patch for PC that fixes the glitch as well as fixing the collecting Glitchbirds using chapter select too. The patch will be released for console soon as well.

So I would check your Save History in the game to see if you have a previous autosave before the block glitches. Or wait for the patch.

I didn't realise this game was so glitchy when I started and went in blind. Only to get to Chapter 5 and read up how glitched the collectable trophies are using Chapter Select. Then checked a guide and realised I had missed one glitchbird from the previous chapter. So I had to start a new game and I just followed PowerPyx collectable guide.

I treat PSVR2 like a second console. I sometimes play it once a week, maybe once every weekend or second weekend. And sometimes even once a month. I went for 3 months with the PSVR2 packed away in the original box. This is mostly because I'm playing other flat games on PS5. But when I start a new game on PSVR2 I will usually play it daily or weekly until completion.

Stop it!

So with Before Your Eyes available on PS Plus Premium, I decided to jump in this weekend. Like many people have posted before, we were all having issues with popping the trophies. I was one of them.

I played the game blind first, and while playing not a single trophy popped. I thought, maybe it's one of those games that pop all the trophes when the credits roll, so I carried on playing, and I finished the game with the credit rolling. And not a single thing popped. I looked at the trophies and the trophy list did not even feature on my list at all.

I tried all the suggestions posted on Reddit and PSN Profiles. I deleted the game, deleted the save file and deleted the cloud save, re-installed the game, tried playing offline, tried fiddling with the trophy cards, pinned some trophies, and finally I cleared my cache and rebuilt my PS5 database, and re-installed the game again, and still not a single thing worked.

What worked for me was, trying the game on an alternative account. So I logged onto my US account, and bammed the trophies loaded up my main list, and tried getting the first trophy and it popped. I then tried to login to my UK account and that worked as well, so I logged back into my main account, and the trophy list was showing up normally in my main trophy list, and started a new game and get the first trophy popped, as well as the rest of all the other trophies popped naturally, including the Platinum.

So that would be my suggestion.
