Why did the devs make the platinum so fucking retarded to get?

>need to obtain and upgrade every single weapon in the game
>need to obtain mats for said weapons
>mats are sold in shop that has 3 different locations where the inventory is different depending on the location
>lol btw there's a 50% chance it wont be upgrade mats and some chips that are useless to you now
>no guarantee shop will spawn in the location you need
>finally manage to make it spawn there
>obtain mats
>go to upgrade weapons
>haha you don't have enough money
>go grind some fucking money
>upgrade again
>final stage requires more mats
>grind them again, trying to get the shop in the right place over and over
>done
>lol only joking now you need to grind xp til you get to at least level 80 to even have a chance at fighting the secret boss haha

Fuck this, I'm not even bothering. I don't have a problem with grinding but when they elongate the grind to 10x longer than it needs to be they've fucked up.

Quit going for trophies

you can literally buy every trophy in the game retard

N:A might be the easiest game on PS4 to platinum
>>
The game has an in game trophy store. Taro knows cheevo fags are scum and treats them as such.
>>
>>375892161
>platinum

Literally all you needed to say. They wouldn't know good game design if they tripped over it, they just recycle DMC3's everything and pray everyone finds the new coat of paint worth the asking price.
>>
>>375892161
they literally told you achievements are pointless by letting you buy all of them
>>
>>375892248
>>375892250
>>375892272

No you cant. You can buy every trophy except the ending one, which requires you to do everything I listed.
>>
>>375892161
upgrading weapons is fucking easy, you can buy all the materials from Emil and two other shops after your third playthrough

upgrading all 3 pods is the real hell
>>
>>375892346
nah, pods are easy, just grind the gold bunny
>>
>>375892346
Yeah, if Emil would actually fucking spawn in the location I need him too.

I burned through most of that in one sitting.

>>375892161
I didn't plat this either. I wanted to, and if I had, it would have been only my second plat on PS4 after Bloodborne, but I didn't have the patience. And I wasn't going to lower myself to buying the fucking trophies. I got like 85% of them fair and square and decided that was good enough for me.

So yeah under closer investigation you can just buy every trophy in the game

So now I'm faced with the decision of buying everything and having a platinum I literally cheated to get stuck on my profile, or grinding the everloving fuck out of the game until I go braindead

Truly autistic game design, I think its time to move on

>>375893280

Play the game because you like it. If it is a grind, either buy them or move on. No one cares about your PSN level or platinums.

When did neo-/v/ become the majority? If you dont go for trophies you didnt finish the game. And if you dont finish your games, then why the fuck should anyone care for your casual bitch tier opinions?

neo-/v/ is the one who cares about cheevos moron. The old /v/ laughed at shit like gamer score and trophies because most of us played games in an era that didn't have them nor needed them. Fuck off retard.

>>375894405
They're both meme games, don't play either if you have a semblance of taste.

It does because >>375894307 There's no damage controlling this.

I like to finish all my games and I only buy games I enjoy. I have and will never be stupid enough to artificially increase my PSN level by playing Hannah Montana tier shit.

Alright I'll spoonfeed you only because I'm tired of drooling retards. Go to chapter 4-1 go to amusement park shop buy 99 gold ore buy 99 books. skip to a2. go up to emil and make 1mil in less than 4 minutes. Wow look at that all you had to do was use your brain and realize that hmmm as the game goes on :thinking: the prices uhhuh uhhuh right okay they go UP?!?!?!! wow blew my mind I actually can't comprehend this. it was difficult using my eyes for that one
>>
>>375894405
You really should, as there's a lot of references in Automata that would go over your head if you haven't played the first one. Also for Nier you really only should play it again once, I personally don't find going for ending C and D worth it.

Autism is caring about platinum and trophies that no one but normies care about. A simple I played the game is enough. Or did old games from SNES, PS1, PS2 era have trophies and gamer profile as well? Literally no one cares about trophies except morons like you.

Nice try autist, its patched.

I just platinumed Fate Extella today and Horizon Zero dawn the other day.

I do it so I can look at the smooth list of 100% games on my PS4 menu.

I don't do it for third party ranking boards because there is always interal drama and your account will get flagged if you beat a tranny's best time in something and that's a hate crime and then you find out they're also banging one of the Low-T mods who spend 12 houra a day there moderating the board for free there

I dont know any normalfag who cares about trophies. You otoh, and all the casuals who think not finishing your games to completion is somehow commendable can and should go back to redddit.

>>375894791
Lets be clear. Old /v/ doesn't care about trophies either. Because we grew up in an era without them. Only new faggots like you care about the game sucking your dick for getting cheevos. If I could turn off achievements I would.

>>375894712

It's nothing to do with the actual trophies themselves. You dont finish your games. You are casuals who dont truly appreciate your games. At the end of the day I have the satisfaction and joy of buying games I truly enjoy and finishing them to completion.

I treat trophies as stamps in a passport, it's a reminder of where you have been and what you have done.

Actually I would regularly 100% games like Ocarania of Time and Majora's Mask by collecting everything, getting the best endings in Sonic by getting all the Chaos Emeralds.

I even beat Sonic Spinball.
>>
>>375895203
>doing inane shit
Yeah inane shit like getting all the playthroughs for multiple endings or grinding for all the playable items. Wow, thank you mister enlightened casual for opening my eyes on how inane it is to actually finish your games haha.
>>
>>375895272
Cheevo fags are a special kind of autism especially since majority of them were born in the 2000s onwards. Probably underage as well. I have never met a person that played games prior to achievements being a thing caring about achievements.
>>
>>375895093
Have you even gotten Ending E yet? I don't know how getting some worthless cheevo that can be flat out bought makes you appreciate the game more than me crying bitch tears at the end.

>>
>>375895336
Good what stamp did you receive on your passport back then? None? Yeah you did it because you liked the game. Like I did with FF7 and FFX. I didn't need an achievement to suck my dick.
>>
>>375895339
>getting all the playthroughs for multiple endings
getting all the endings is the most inane shit in the game since they all pretty much amount to "go the wrong way at a critical moment" 21 times
>>
>>375895423
Same. Ive always had pleasant gaming experiences with psnp people.

Also keep triggering these anti cheevo fags here it's hilarious.

>>
>>375895339
>getting all the playthroughs for multiple endings
That's part of getting the final ending, though? Inane shit is getting # of x items for some virtual "achievement." You should probably add "strawman like a retard" to your imaginary cheevo list, too.

Cant buy and sell because you get 10% of what you used to. Cant even access golden bunny because level 59 and no good way to earn xp.
>>
>>375896196
ASound shapes is amazing I just lay back and hear 360+ trophies ding over and over for 15 minutes
>>
>>375896080
Like what did they do then?
Because 99% of the upgrade materials you needed could be bought from Emil's shop (and money is pathetically easy to get), and exp is also pathetically easy to get just by grinding the bunny statue for 15 minutes.

So outside of a few materials that have mediocre drop rates there really isn't much.

I dont give a shit about the trophies themselves, I care about FINISHING THE GAMES I LIKE. And the only way to confirm that is through a checklist which the developers include to show that you finished the content of the game.

Not with little bitch casuals who barely even touched the game for a few hours.

>>375896627
Tedium is a part of gaming mate.
>>
>>375896673
I honestly agree with you. Chievos are the best thing to have happened to gaming because now you can really know who's dedicated and who stopped playing and went to watch some youtube lp or pt of it.
>>
>>375896754
A game being tedious is a game with bad game design. A game keeping you busy isn't the same as a game being tedious.
>>
>>375892161
????
The game even has "do 80% of stuff" achievements instead of "do 100% of stuff", nearly every crafting material can be bought from a shop, achievements can be bought from a shop directly and only one part of one of them is missable. If those things were 100% instead of 80% and you couldn't buy stuff from vendors, then it would be proper retarded.

You could also preplan your actions so you don't have to go through what you did when getting the mats. Plus the Golden Bunny was the ezist exp grind of my life. This really is just a case of "git fucking gud".
>>
>>375896754
if you accept tedium as part of gaming you have objectively shit taste in games
>>
>>375896673
but Nier's achievements don't even requiring 100%

a lot of games don't
>>
>>375896809
>>375896884

It depends on what is tedious and why. Grinding will always be tedious, and it will always be a part of games, an accepted part of games. Some games do it better than others, some do it worse.

But grinding isn't gameplay, when you're playing a game through naturally, that's when tedium matters, not when you're grinding for achievements/trophies. Because those are just bones thrown in for people who love grinding for useless crap.
>>
>>375896853
Maybe he never played a JRPG before.
>>
>>375896931
Not talking about nier specifically. Although I did get the plat I still went out of my way to grind that wasnt necessary
>>
>>375896673
How did you even enjoy this game? Achievements were the least important part of the whole experience. I honestly wanted to go back and 100% it, but I was so caught up by Ending E that I deleted my save anyways.

>>375897094
Grinding for pointless cheevos is fucking shit.
Grinding cause you want to beat all the game has to offer as a challenge is great. Like the hidden Emil boss in Nier. Autistic reloading and farming of mat spots for cheevos is fucking retarded, pointless and tedious with no payoff.
>>
>>375897176
Grinding in game usually means you're doing so with the purpose of getting something in return. Nothing wrong with that at all. Just look at mon hun as an example.
>>
>>375897094
Semantics.

Gameplay is the core loop, the actual intended play of the game, literally the definition. When you're grinding, you're not playing, you're grinding. And achievements aren't, and never have been gameplay.

Getting the game to suck your dick isn't a purpose. Grinding is done with a goal in mind. Grinding isn't the goal. If you grind for that cheevo, you are a fucking moron and probably underage ban.
>>
>>375897321
Id say you didnt finish it because that's still a challenge left incomplete. Why not play it again so you can complete the challenge?
>>
>>375897531
Cause it is pointless. It is not fun. You literally have to game the system and cheat to get that particular cheevo. It isn't challenging. It isn't fun. And people don't need to do unchallenging unfun shit to have the game pat them on the back and say well done.

It really isnt that hard to do theres a spot to grind mats you also grind money in said spot and theres a spot to grind exp very easily

What spot do I grind mats and xp? I swear to god if theyve fucking patched that shit aswell

literally just fast travel around City Ruins until he's in the right spot then run to him
>>
>>375897909
I've been doing that for an hour. WHen he finally gets to the right spot he isnt even selling the right stuff.
>>
>>375897785
The xp spot is outside the amusement park theres a specific way to do it so google that
Mats go to a chapter as a2 and go to the copied city and put on a all item drop ups
>>
>>375898006
are you sure he's in the right spot?
>>
>>375897897
The only lore you get is from finding the weapons and getting their stories, which is required for the Emil boss fight anyways. The rest is pointless bullshit
>>
>>375898201
Yeah. Whenever hes outside the desert area hes just selling FUCKING chips

Protip, stop playing for achievements. Nobody gives a shit, just move on.

Plat wise, how long am I looking at for Nier?
>>
>>375898352
Every single guide I'm looking at tells me he has 2 inventories for each location. I'm trying to get him to sell the mats at the desert area, but every time he does he has his chips instead. Also I havent even managed to get him to spawn at the resistance camp once.
>>
>>375894115
Nice projection lol. The platinum is easy to get
>>
>>375898465
the guides you're reading, apparently, are wrong. He only sells chips in front of the desert area, he sells mid-level mats out in the first area you come to by the bridge to the abandoned factory, and high-level mats and his two weapons outside the Resistance camp
>>
>>375898538
I've had him sell mid level mats outside the desert area before though.

how do you buy the trophies in this game?

>>375900387
Of course not, else we wouldn't have an entire thread bitching about upgrading weapons in a game where it isn't an issue. The plat is extremely easy even without the trophy shop. Grinding shit in the first game is an exercise in torture.
>>
>>375900387
Ya know that reminds me. Everyone I've ever talked to that played this game and got ending E bitched about how mind blowingly hard it was, and I always thought in the back of my mind, "You don't know what a truly impossible boss is until you've played Drakengard 1 and 3."

I beat Drakengard 1's ending at least so I like to wear that as an autistic badge of honor.
>>
>>375901696
>Everyone I've ever talked to that played this game and got ending E bitched about how mind blowingly hard it was

It's supposed to be really hard until you get the help after which it becomes really easy.
Drakengard 1 and 3 don't have helps and you just get the difficult part and have to just and you just need to git gud (though the final notes on the 3 boss are just bullshit and are just there to fuck you over at the last possible moment)

This, I never bother with trophies and the only one I'm missing is fishing. This has to be one of the easiest plats. You can get all of them by just playing the game and doing all of the quests. I didn't even grind for the fucking pods.

I figured I'd plat it since you can just buy the annoying ones, but when I saw how easy it was to actually accomplish I didn't spend a single cent.
>>
>>375903056
I made it to the tank and gave up. What do you even get from beating it?
>>
>>375892161
lmao upgrading the weapons and getting the money/material is the easiest thing in the game.

After you defeat the opera boss go to the machine store in the amusement park buy all the thick dictionarys for like 2,5k

Go to chapter select load up when you're at one of the boxes. Run back and sell the thick dictionaries for 5k each.

Rinse and repeat

For weapon material you literally just have to stopp emil when hes on the road outside resistance camp. To get him to spawn theres simply run to the mall where you first meet emil and run near the end of the bridge check the map, if hes not near the resistance camp run back into the mall and rinse and repeat.
>>
>>375905713
my bad you actually buy em for 6k and sell for 11k
>>
>>375903056
I beat the tank on Very Hard, but after that I had to lower the difficulty to Hard because I was getting one shot left and right.
Got to Eve but I made the mistake of taunting him just to go faster and he punched me in the noggin for all my health just as he was dying.
I highly recommend taunting the previous bosses, but Eve has a simple and fast punch that can wreck you.

If it's can somebody tell where to find all translated stories?

The only problem is the rare harverst point drops for the pods. Just not enough in the game and the only way to do it is farm the spot in the castle for hours.

>>375894405
Yes, if you can, you should.
And no, when you beat the first ending, you will restart at the middle of the game and you will have the same level so it's really fast to go to next one.
>>
Is it just me or can´t you hack the golden bunny anymore? I tried like 4 times at different parts of the story, but i can´t seem to do it anymore.
Also: Any advice on not to suck in the arenas? A+ levels are kicking my ass.

i always had to clear all the bots around the bunny before it would let me. but i got tired of that and attacked it using a pod program fully charged, but can't remember which. hammer? can't remember

>need to obtain
Trivial without a guide assuming you have 3+ living brain cells.
>and upgrade every single weapon in the game
Again, trivial and mostly grind free assuming you don't skip side quests since those reward you with needed mats.
>remaining retardation
You probably already failed the first requirement so I won't bother with the rest.
>>375893280
>grinding the everloving fuck out of the game until I go braindead
Judging by your post you already are.

Pods were too tedious for me. Had to buy the pod cheevo with 3/3, 3/3, 2/3 but I had a lot of fun unlocking the other cheevos.

Acheivments/Trophies are carrot-before-the-horse memes made to fool kids into extending playtime on shitty games.

If a game is actually good you'll come back to it regardless of achievements, get your fucking shit together.

You are retarded to the nth degree, and not just because you couldn't figure out that you can just buy the trophies, not even because you are a massive autist who plays for trophies instead of playing for the game itself.

I had enough money and materials to upgrade all the weapons just from completing all the sidequests. Either you've played the game in some utterly retarded way, or you're too retarded to figure out that you have a huge stack of items that sell for 10k each.

Either way, I repeat, you are RETARDED.
>>
>>375892161
If the platinum is so important to you, fucking buy it.
If you don't want to fulfill the requirements for platinum then don't.
What's the big deal?

Its just like the first game. Standard for Nier and Drakengard.

I think there should be an option to turn it off completely. So that a game with 0% doesn't get added to your account even when you play a game.
Just like when PS3 didn't have trophies. There's an option to hide it, but people can still go to your trophies list and see all the zero percentages.

Some games like MGS4 received trophy patches later on. Its insane that you have to complete the game and get all the code names. I'm lucky to have played it before the patch.

I know MS isn't the first to implement it, but it goes to show that everything they touch turns to shit. Cheevos used to be just a steam thing before MS copied it and sent it to the masses. PS3 shouldn't have copied this nonsense. Maybe I'd be playing more online games today if they didn't.
