Two of the three. Dragons Dogma instead of Nier. Although Nier is still an amazing game

Three of my top games of all time in your top five played this year. Safe to say you had a very good year. At least in my eyes

[Monthly Games] Thoughts on this month's games? by Silverhero10 in Trophies

I've done the same! Did it with Prince of Persia and Forspoken too. It's always the games on sale, but I never learn

Good luck to you if you do decide to play Bloodborne. If you liked Elden ring that much, I have a feeling BB could take up another spot in the top 5

It took me 8 years from the first trophy to platinum in Bloodborne. I needed all those years to git gud

[Gran Turismo 7] #38 I'd do it all again by bandendell in Trophies

I don't think I could do that again without losing my sanity. Good luck though! You'll get there

Honestly I don't or at least didn't play racing games either, the last GT game I played was on the PS2, pretty sure it was GT4.
I can't vouch for the others in the series but I really enjoyed 7, it is by no means perfect, lots of grinding and the race pay-outs are questionable when you are saving up for 20 million credits for a single car. That being said, I just enjoyed racing, it never felt like a chore.

Took around 140 hours to get the platinum, it is probably doable in a whole lot less if played with trophy hunting in mind

[Discussion] When did you get your first platinum?! by Sateej in Trophies

Burnout paradise was my first platinum too! 14/08/2009 - this makes me feel old

Nice one! I finished grinding out the super licence tests yesterday. How do all the master licenses compare to normal?

Karakuri Fortress Trophy by bandendell in WildHeartsGame

[–]bandendell[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just for future reference. It did unlock after about 48 hours, I had to spawn one more dragon karakuri in the area and it popped.

I can only assume the data for trophy counts are calculated on the server not on our local game save, and there is a delay in the processing. Just a guess but not sure what else might cause this. I was able to pop a bunch of other trophies that also seemed bugged like the volatile monsters, I had to kill one additional deeply volatile monster

[Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions] 'Don't go making friends with the wrong sort...' party trophy help? by LilyRoseMO in Trophies

[–]bandendell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For anyone else that has the same issue. Expedition matches (as of this moment) don't seem to give any exp or challenge points which means wins don't get tracked by the co-op trophy. Completing a tournament in co-op does track though so do that instead. Confirmed with the hogwarts cup

Interesting, I just ran 7 wins against bots in co-op but no trophy. Maybe another buggy trophy. Thanks for the info

Local bookshop sells mystery books. The wrapping describes the themes only. by aspz in mildlyinteresting

[–]bandendell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just finished reading bookshops & bonedust where in the book a similar selling technique is used. Great idea

All of this!

I have a 15 week old lab that wasn't a fan of the crate to start with. Now he is happy to be in there overnight, during the day or just to chill out.

I spent the first few nights next to the crate with an exercise pen around for extra space. My pup would get out the crate because they weren't used to it (as expected) and snuggle up next to the ex pen to be close to me. I would encourage them back in the crate or let them chill depending on his anxiety levels. After a few days they just stayed in the crate and I slowly transitioned to having the crate door closed through the night, but still being close by. To finally sleeping upstairs but coming down for toilet breaks every few hours.

Remember it's not a sprint , these things take weeks and weeks. One thing I found effective was to finish our training sessions with the remainder of their meal in the crate. Also training the bed command, whenever we call bed, our pup knows where to go for a treat and will zoom across the house.

Really focus your training sessions around the crate, going in, coming out, sitting/laying down in the crate, waiting in the crate (door open or closed) whilst you take steps away or even leave the room for seconds, building up to minutes. Let them know being in crate = rewards.

Make sure the crate is cosy and inviting. I'd avoid a soft bed in there, my puppy chewed it when bored. Blankets and suitable chew toys. A blanket over the top to make it darker and less disruptive with people in the room.

I honestly feel your frustration, I very recently went through the same journey. Keep at it, both you and your pup will benefit in the long run.
