I got into platinum (or 1000ging) a game because sometimes when I finished a game I wanted to play it more but had no real direction or goal to achieve, getting the extra achievements extended the games life for me. Sometimes its bad in a game that basically just tries to bullshit away 40 hours of your life for a flashy piece of gear or some brutal collection marathons. Those I almost always avoid but "Kill 10 enemies with headshots with X weapon" or the Lego Achievements where they tell you to do X thing as X character are nice little game time extensions and not a full time job level commitment. Playing with X class is also a good way to get me to play a game in a way I simply wouldn't have before too, platinums can enhance games or ruin them now for me.

I understand that trophies are something that keeps YOU intrigued. I get it. But for most of your generation of gamers trophies ARE the replay value as you would call it. for gamers like me the game itself IS the replay value. And that is why you play and understand games different. Trophies, once you got them all,will not motivate you to collect ever again. You get the trophies once and it is done. You lean back and consider the "job" done. Like a household chore. Done. And so the game is done as well. I started when games did not have such nonsense. On the NES the only thing you unlocked with some games was just another loop with faster and tougher enemies to test your skills even more. But when you hit the reset button once it started at point blank. But we couldn't care less since the games themselves were the reward for our existence and endurance. We played video games. YOU hunt trophies. That changes everything. And that is why gaming seems to die, according to your generation. Because at one point you become fed up with trophies and you become honest with yourselves. That you did not come here for the games. They were just games. You came for the trophies. And this video is, even if it is not much on its own, a part of the evidence.

I got 11 Platinums. I will say this, only plat games you know you can. If you can’t then don’t pressure yourself as you’ll only stress and the game won’t be fun anymore
@Instinx_8 күн бұрын
Exactly. Enjoy the rest of the game for what they are.
@LeonardoDaVinci_145212 күн бұрын
As someone with 178 Platinums and can honestly say this is probably my favorite hobby I’ve had. Sure, some games are just unfair and sometimes they just ask for way too much. But, at the end of the day it’s all worth it once it’s done.

After 134 platinums... I'm burnt out. I'm tired of having to check off box after box on a checklist. I just want to play. No pressure. No checklists. Just... play. Granblue Fantasy Relink is what did me in. I've done grinds in plenty of RPGs, like grinding for the ultra rare Byrnhildr Relic and Ambicion weapons in Tactics Ogre... but GBF made me fight a boss over and over and over and over and over and over and over and OVER again to grind out 19 different weapons... all of which dropped randomly. It was madness. Exhausting, exhausting madness. For years I felt trophies expanded games, offering gameplay opportunities you would normally never experience if you didn't pursue them. I was a trophy advocate. Now... I don't think I can stomach them.
@Instinx_19 күн бұрын
134 is a lot of plats so i totally get you especially considering you have a bunch of grindy RPGs on your list as well. Burn out really is such a problem. What I will say is I think you took the healthy approach and detached yourself. At the end of the day enjoying what you do is most important, and if gaming is the hobby you most enjoy then making sure you love gaming is waaaaay more important than seeing that plat number go up.

Going for platinums is one of the best ways to experience games as you’re likely to experience everything the game has to offer while also giving you a good challenge. The only negative is that I sometimes notice myself not wanting to play games at all because the platinum is either unobtainable or too difficult which might mean that I miss out on some really good games
