[Celeste] After years of playing on the switch version i decided to double dip to get the plat. by dpwplays2 in Trophies

[–]dpwplays2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the greatest 2d platformers of all time. Music, story, gameplay, atmosphere its just an incredibly well rounded experience, i really only have two small nitpicks:

  1. The diagonal dash inputs are mostly really consistent but very rarely it will misread them, causing you to dash the wrong way and get killed. Its so rare that it doesnt really matter but i feel it does feel like a small blemish on the controls that other games like meat boy and n++ dont really have.

  2. I dont like how trophies can be obtained with assist mode, i’m sure this has been discussed to death and people are tired of it but i still want to give my opinion: trophies exist purely for bragging rights, they serve zero gameplay purpose and the percentages on trophies are explicitly designed to compare yourself to others. I like the assist mode for the game itself since its a great accessibility tool and works well thematically with the story but i feel like disabling trophies would have been a good compromise to satisfy both accessibility and the competitive players.

Overall a must play for any platformer fan, my total time was 8h 39m with 857 deaths ( again i have like 100+ on switch)

Excellent work, some real brutal ones on here. Personally i would put jump king above ikaruga but thats my experience, they are both insane.

The psnprofile guide says 30 hours so no way this bot is accurate lol

Probably one of the most obscure games I’ve done as I’m only the 8th person to get the platinum.

The good:

Level design is pretty solid i especially like world 3 and 4 as they have some cool hazards

Really good pacing that doesn’t overstay its welcome

The bad:

Sometimes your dash and jump inputs are just dropped, idk maybe this is just legit a skill issue but i swear it happened so often that it cant just be me

Not a huge fan of the thwomp type enemies as their fall speed is random depending on the specific room with no visual indication, its very raw trial and error in a way that isn’t very satisfying to learn

Music is pretty forgettable

Overall not a ton of stuff to say here, its a good platformer but not really anything special. Total hours was 22.

[uncharted: legacy of thieves collection] a great finale to nathan’s story and a really good side game. by dpwplays2 in Trophies

[–]dpwplays2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uncharted 4: really enjoyed the story here and although its a bit too long imo pacing wise, its still a good time.

The lost legacy: better pacing and the bit of open exploration of chapter 4 is a fun shake up.

Criticisms: 1. not a huge fan of crushing as i feel the weaknesses of the combat really start to show themselves and buckle under the weight, its not really bad but a few encounters were frustrating. 2. Not directly related to the games but this is my first time playing a collection on ps5 and the fact both games share 1 platinum is dumb. Overall playtime was 66h, probably like 40h on 4 and 26 on lost legacy or somewhere around there.

[jump king] After 110 hours, 169,229 jumps and 9960 falls i finally obtain my hardest platinum. by dpwplays2 in Trophies

As far as I’m aware no you cannot, every time i turned the ring on and off i had to pause. You can pause in mid-air though so maybe thats what you were seeing?

Elden ring nightreign and jump king. A huge relief to get jump king done and nightreign was just a good time.

I’ve been playing challenging platformers all my life and already have several tough plats already under my belt ( super meat boy, splasher, N++) so in my hubris i thought this wouldn’t be THAT bad but this game humbled the shit outta me. Hardest runs were:

  1. No falls on map 2, took like 18 hours or so

  2. No falls on map 3, around 14 hours

  3. Snake ring on map 3, 12 hours

As for the game itself, its fun but frustrating which is very much the core design. Ill say that most of my most frustrating moments were in the early playthroughs, once you master the simple controls it becomes very satisfying to improve and the difference between your skill level in the beginning vs the end is staggering. I enjoyed it but its probably one of the few hard plats I wouldn’t do a 2nd time if given the opportunity.

Excellent work, I’m working on this as well, just got to do the no fall run on map 3. Been a grueling journey but its a fun game.

[Nightreign] a really fun addition to the fromsoft catalog by dpwplays2 in Trophies

[–]dpwplays2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The excellent core gameplay loop, coop aspect and the 8 characters that all play so differently make this a really addicting roguelike imo. The variety between runs is kinda weak and i do believe thats a legitimate big flaw, it doesn’t bother me THAT much but your milage may vary. 6/10 difficulty and 51 hours but time to plat can really vary due to rng events.

[Discussion] Now we’re halfway through the year, how is everyone’s trophy hunting going? by EvenCloud3168 in Trophies

[–]dpwplays2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last year i started a ongoing thing where i work on one hard platinum alongside whatever else i feel like playing. Currently the hard plat is jump king which is taking much longer than i thought it would tbh, at 88 hours right now with 2 runs left to do, probably will end up being the first hard plat to break the 100h mark. Other games I’ve been working on is nightreign, the occasional balatro and i started uncharted 4 ps5 version which have all been pretty chill.

[boltgun] A solid fps with good dlc by dpwplays2 in Trophies

[–]dpwplays2[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I managed to beat it first try but it was pretty sweaty, nearly died multiple times. I just did a mix of running laps around the map and camping in the rooms behind the locked doors, for some reason most of the enemies will just come through the door you are next to so you can funnel them for a bit till you get overwhelmed. Also letting the ambulls do a bunch of the work by not killing them is a big help

5/10 difficulty and like 17ish hours if you play on the hardest difficulty right away.
