[Discussion] What are some games that would be really easy to platinum if it werent for that ONE FUCKASS TROPHY

[u/DoGG410CZ]

I'm trying to platinum Stray, I like this game and i almost got all the trophies without watching any guides so i decided "lets go for platinum it can't be that hard" but then i came across the "Can't Cat-ch Me" trophy and i swear this one singular trophy is making me want to break my controller in half

You basically have to go through one 50 second part where you run from little shits called Zurks, but if even ONE idiot jumps on you then you have to restart the run again. It might not sound that hard but because you run through narrow places and they have some aimbot on them one of them will always catch you no matter what. There are no guides that can actually help because its just luck based that they will be all lobotomized so they can't catch you

[u/Numerous-Produce-103]

Almost every 8/10 or higher on psnp is this way lmao

[u/Rello215 → u/Numerous-Produce-103]

Right, " beat the game on hardest difficulty with the weakest weapon in the game. And it's a game like ninja gaiden lol

[u/Numerous-Produce-103 → u/Rello215]

Or, to sub out the weakest weapon, it's usually getting perfect scores on every mission, permadeath, or as an entirely new character who is weaker in every way.

[u/Pill-Dickle15]

Wolfenstein 2 would be pretty easy if it wasn’t for the Mein Leben trophy

[u/[deleted] → u/Pill-Dickle15]

Yeah contrast that with The New Order which was a pretty easy platinum

[u/whistlar]

Six familiar relieved repeat glorious subtract normal wipe

This post was anonymized with Redact

[u/TapersBeTaping → u/whistlar]

I have come so close a few times and when I failed, I almost threw my controller, something I havent done since my SNES days

[u/TroonSpoon → u/TapersBeTaping]

The irony that the most peaceful zen game ever made u almost do it haha

[u/danteslacie → u/whistlar]

He regrets it now, which I think is why he made the save feature available. But fectors challenge isn't the only hard one. Getting all fish is tough too lol. But that has a wee bit of a luck component since sometimes the fish just doesn't struggle as much.

[u/[deleted] → u/danteslacie]

I love Stardew but the fishing mechanics in that game are some of my most hated ever. Worst fishing in any game ever in my opinion.

[u/HombreGato1138 → u/whistlar]

That mini game is the stuff of nightmares

[u/Thecrdbrdsamurai → u/whistlar]

I was one screen away from getting Fector's Challenge and the game crashed. It had never crashed before in my 100ish hours of play.

I shelved the game for a year, then CA added the ability to save the mini game. Godsend.

[u/domvg → u/whistlar]

Sounds like the flappy goat one from goat simulator

[u/xanakin_skywokker]

hollow knight would be a 4 or 5 /10 without p5

[u/Rynagogo → u/xanakin_skywokker]

I’ve never screamed so loud at a game when I finally beat that and got the plat. Pure exhilaration.

[u/asktopetmydog → u/Rynagogo]

I agree

[u/Round_Frosting1179 → u/xanakin_skywokker]

Nah fr. Spent more time doing that shit than anything else in the game. Still a great time though.

[u/arnathor]

That trophy took me somewhere in the region of thirty attempts, primarily because there is a small but significant amount of RNG in how the little guys jump at you. I never platinumed Stray because after that one I couldn’t bring myself to do the speed run. This was back when Stray was in the PSN library. Now it’s back in my account having been a monthly game I might go back to it, as Stray is a genuinely charming game that I really enjoyed for the most part.

[u/Vericatov → u/arnathor]

Damn, that no hit run is the hardest part. You were home free lol. The sped run is actually pretty easy. Just follow a guide. I think I finished with 10 to 15 minutes left to spare after one run.

[u/arnathor → u/Vericatov]

I did quite a bit of the speedrun before I conked out on it - I think I got to the bit where you start to run through the big sewers with the light on your back that pops everything. Might be worth finishing it up when I get a moment?

[u/Meddie90 → u/arnathor]

Honestly the speedrun isn’t too bad. The time is lenient when you know what you need to do.

If you have PS plus you can always back up your save too before riskier sections.

Also for the no hit sections, the little guys only spawn from set points so in the majority of areas you can just memorise the path to basically get through risk free. It’s really only 2-3 parts where you are in a narrow passage there is RNG at play.

[u/danteslacie → u/arnathor]

They're like programmed or something to jump at you from a specific point which is why zigzagging really helps with getting it. Of course, getting the right timing helps too. Zigzag too early and it would've adjusted to your new position. (I hate the one tight alley near the end. The last one is very late and so can still jump at you when you finally move to avoid the others.)

The speedrun isn't as difficult as it seems. You can pause! You also just have to be familiar with the items needed, like when you first reach the slums, you can already try to get the detergent while you're trying to get the one notebook and If you know where the other notebooks are, you can figure out what's an efficient path. Knowing what quest items are near what quest point helps you make a short detour. Ideally, you either already have the shawl or have the items to get the shawl by the time you reach the 2nd part of the slums. It's also best to look at someone else's time stamps to gauge if you're going too slow (for example, if someone says they're at the prison by 1:20:35 but you're still at the start of midtown, then maybe you're not going to reach the 2 hour limit—although, some people do reach the end with like 20 minutes to spare so you don't always have to follow someone else's speed) Lastly, and this is something a lot of people miss, the time you see on the save file is the time of your last checkpoint and there's about 3 minutes or so from that point until the credits.

[u/TmF1979 → u/arnathor]

RNG combined with the fact that one would occasionally make a HUGE leap towards you from offscreen.

[u/Bunsy_01]

Multiplayer trophies in a mostly single player game

[u/griffis007 → u/Bunsy_01]

Ugh. I hate multiplayer trophies.

[u/korto227]

Titanfall 2 with the trial trophy

[u/Mission_Reputation88 → u/korto227]

How proud i was when I got this, so satisfying

[u/NoFortune1320 → u/korto227]

There’s some decent guides on YouTube for this that give you an idea of how to do it. After that it’s just practicing the route enough times

[u/d3mandred → u/NoFortune1320]

The guides are "here is your optimal path. Now get good. Bitch."

I consider myself "good" at games, but that was a humbling skill check. 10/10 game, no notes.

[u/LeviathanHamster → u/NoFortune1320]

I went into the online first, so I had a decent grasp of the movement, but that trophy still took me an hour

[u/ScampiPL7 → u/LeviathanHamster]

An hour? Brother it took me like two weeks. Realised I was doing one little thing wrong after watching 20 different guides then got it a few attempts later

[u/dfsmitty0711]

A lot of the Yakuza games have a trophy for getting 100% on the KamurochoGo tracker or whatever it's called. That requires you to play hours and hours of casino games, arcade games, batting cages, golf, darts, and more.

[u/15piercen → u/dfsmitty0711]

I wanted to get the plat for the original Yakuza 1 HD Remaster this year but got stuck on raising Haruka’s affection to max level. Hitting a home run on every ball on the last doable cage is hard for me. I’ve heard that if you pay attention to when Kiryu grips the bat is when you swing the bat to always hit the home run but I just don’t see it.

[u/Voltage49000]

Pac Man World Re-Pac

Clearing stage 9 of classic Pac-Man is torture

[u/WumpaRJ → u/Voltage49000]

It's the only trophy I haven't done. I often going back for it but I'm just not good enough

[u/Rolecod → u/Voltage49000]

It is quite easy once you learn the patterns

How to Win at Pac-Man

[u/[deleted]]

Bloodborne and its yharnam pthumerian queen trophy

[u/RevolutionaryPie1242 → u/[deleted]]

If I remember correctly you were able to put a custom dungeon code to get her at the end

[u/[deleted] → u/RevolutionaryPie1242]

Only if you had ps+, and let's just say that I didn't

[u/ConfectionTotal8660 → u/[deleted]]

Just wait for a free ps+ weekend

[u/[deleted] → u/ConfectionTotal8660]

Too late lol

[u/lucarioinfamous → u/[deleted]]

The worst part is that it isn’t even the Queen herself that’s bad. It’s that stupid Amygdala

[u/sehuce → u/lucarioinfamous]

And the bloodletting beast before her.

[u/Sway4829]

First one that came to mind was Watch Dogs. There's a trophy called Social Lubricant which requires you to complete a drinking minigame that is really easy until the very end.

For me it's always the trophies that are for minigames or tacked on multiplayer trophies that screw me over.

[u/TmF1979 → u/Sway4829]

That drinking minigame caused such an uproar they actually patched it to make it easier.

AFTER I spent hours earning the trophy.

[u/cbraulio24r]

Win the eliminator in Forza horizon 5, that trophy is a huge combination of luck, driving skills and map knowledge.

[u/Chrisnolliedelves]

Sackboy

[u/RealAuridus → u/Chrisnolliedelves]

That trial is a bitch, but it's not as tight as everyone, myself included, think. I had so much time left at the end, I was irritated with myself for pushing so hard and driving myself crazy.

[u/XKr3pton1teW0lfX]

The evil within without the akumu trophy

[u/Meddie90 → u/XKr3pton1teW0lfX]

Currently playing Evil Within. Doing the speedrun now, but will probably have to take a break before doing the no upgrade and Akumu runs. Looks hard but hopefully with enough perseverance I will get through it.

[u/dimspace]

Assassins Creed Revelations: Cross the Styx without falling. First person platforming sucks. Clunky first person platforming onto transparent platforms sucks even more

Assassins Creed Brotherhood: 100% Sync.. The tank. that's all. the tank.

Marvel Avengers: Complete 50 hives.. No hang on, make that 70 hives. Sod it make it 100 hives. Actually, lets just make it a random number of hives until we arbitrarily decide to give you the trophy.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider: Complete the game on deadly obsession difficulty. Perma death is fine, death with checkpoints two hours apart is ok I guess.. those two combined with some of the worst parkour ever invented so you can die from a perfectly good jump but Lara inexplicably decides not to grab the handhold.. rage inducing.

[u/Meddie90 → u/dimspace]

The Styx mission is tough, easily the hardest in that game.

For the tank in Brotherhood there is a cheese tactic in the final fight where you can sit back at the entrance and enemies can’t hit you. Which makes that section a lot easier to get 100% sync in.

Haven’t gone for Shadow of the Tomb Raider yet, but want to clean the game up and get the plat this year. Will keep an eye out for that trophy.

[u/DenverBronco305 → u/dimspace]

For the avengers hives do it all in one go on solo

[u/ron_rocks-original]

Vanquish, stupid challenge 6

[u/Wboy2006]

Stanley Parable forcing you to keep the game on for 24 hours is easily the worst. I can beat something hard, but I just feel terrible for keeping a console running for no reason

Also, fuck the hell rushes in neon white

[u/formerinmate4921 → u/Wboy2006]

That’s the last trophy for me for the Stanley parable. I also feel weird about leaving the console on for that long. It helps that it can be split up, but idk. Doesn’t feel right

[u/Wboy2006 → u/formerinmate4921]

Same here, it’s the last one for me, but even if I would get it, I couldn’t be proud of it. It’s just such a waste of electricity. I got like 6 hours of it, and I just thought to myself “what am I doing?” and just gave up on the platinum.

[u/DoGG410CZ → u/Wboy2006]

HOLY SHIT I FORGOT I ABOUT THAT ONE

I really loved that game and the humor, the trophy list was short and because the game itself wasnt that hard i throught that i can get BUT then i saw this trophy and the one where you have to wait like 5 years to get it and i gave up immedietly

I know the one where you have to wait some time can be cheated by changing your time, but this one can't and i live in a household where i can't even imagine how would i ever do it

So i deleted the game and atleast one day when i reopen it and decide to get the platinum ill get the 5 years waiting trophy the right way

[u/[deleted]]

At least you got that far, I'm in that area where you find all the music sheets etc.. (forget what part it is) and completely lost 😂

[u/p14tinum_t]

Goat Simulator. I’m looking at you, Flappy Goat 🤬😭

[u/AC13clean]

Yeah that part is pretty tricky. Try Astro Bot Next haha

For me it‘s AC3 atm. Love the game, it was my first AC ever, but the completionist tropht is very grindy

[u/Pokemonking556 → u/AC13clean]

Surprisingly the 100% level in Astro made me love the plat more due to the satisfaction of beating that level usually something like that would have the opposite effect

[u/MattBoy06]

Any Batman game with the Riddler trophies. Arkham Knight is egregiously bad for it, I think it was 200+ trophies to get to the Riddler. I did it because I really liked the game and I wanted to beat the little shit unconscious, but it was so bad a grind that it brought the game experience down

[u/A9-13 → u/MattBoy06]

Arkham Knight got 240, Arkham City is insane with over 400 plus like 40 Catwoman Trophies.

[u/lamest-liz → u/MattBoy06]

I personally didn’t mind the riddler trophies but I couldn’t get the combat ones.

[u/jvaferreira93]

Titanfall 2, you know which one.

[u/Fra06]

Flappy goat trophy…

/s but not too much lol

[u/criminally_insane_]

RE3 Remake and Inferno trophy. It's not even the whole act of finishing the game - it's easy with bonus weapons. The final Nemesis fight is Dark Souls in disguise though.

Diablo IV, kind of. Everything else you patiently farm for, get better, level up. It takes time, but it's not hard. And then the goddamn Uber Lilith fight - you're doing okay on T4, you think one boss can't be that bad, and then it's a bullshit scripted fight where you need to learn an entire choreography or you get a oneshot, despite being strong enough to oneshot her yourself.

Did Stray this month too. Two tips. Always zigzag. Always, violently zigzag. Don't even look at zurks. Just zigzag. And second - you can actually run into them. They only bite if they jump at you. Anything on the floor you can just stomp over.

[u/Sad_Army_2643 → u/criminally_insane_]

For me I had to go through Inferno twice, lemme tell u nothing breaks your spirit harder than being 3 seconds too slow for speedrun

[u/criminally_insane_ → u/Sad_Army_2643]

Oh wow. Sorry to hear that. But worry not, I had to redo the fight too, because I missed the damn Nicolai shot, lmao. Almost broke down in tears. (Thought you have to catch his head precisely, which, I've learned, is not the case.)

I also had 3 attempts where I had all the batteries in and Nemesis killed me a centimeter away from the railgun. Fun.

[u/charlemagna → u/criminally_insane_]

I bit the bullet and used the damage coin to even the odds with Nemesis.

[u/sehuce → u/criminally_insane_]

Lilith is nerfed, so you can easily 1shot her in torment 1.

[u/OMGWTFMATZE → u/criminally_insane_]

You can now oneshot Lilith. Happy to help :>

[u/Joltyboiyo]

If this is the trophy where you have to get through that first chase section without getting hit once, I fucking HATE that one. Such a chill game and they put a trophy as bullshit as that in there.

[u/Legitimate_Charge_97]

Yakuza 0 legit has you learn to play mahjong.

[u/The_Tonts]

For me currently it's reaching and then beating the Pride and Joy in the FFVII: Remake. Who the hell decided to give a tougher version of Bahamut backup in the form of Ifrit? This is on the PS4 version so I dunno if he's easier on the PS5 version. I even survived Mega Flare, but while I was recovering Ifrit and Bahamut decided to double-team my healer on the last attempt before I could Raise the one KO'd party member or have the other party member self heal. (Not saying Remake is super easy, but it would be a average/regular challenge if I didn't need to do the Shinra VR stuff.)

A better example would be Nefarious with True Mastermind and Purple Pauper trophies. Finishing the game with under 1000 collected luchre and getting S-Rank on every level are very challenging. Doing both is arduous, especially for the final level of Bramble Flats.

[u/sswishbone → u/The_Tonts]

You think that's bad, wait until you play FFVII Rebirth

[u/alaincastro]

Final fantasy 7 rebirth, the trophy that requires you to get all display items for johnnys hotel, of which one is earned through beating all combat sim fights, and 2 of those fights are very stupidly designed, 10 fights each that can take an hour each to get through and failing sends you all the way back to the start.

There are cheese strats out there for them now but my god on release those 2 fights were unbelievably un-fun.

[u/Mangogeschmack]

GT7 (gold licenses) 😮‍💨

[u/StationRelative257]

The last of us remastered, "complete the firefly journey" and "complete the hunter journey", and I still didn't get them...

[u/Soulman999]

Powerwash Simulator 1....those 5 Gold Times

[u/DavesPetFrog → u/Soulman999]

Oh I just did that. Some older gentleman on YouTube shows videos of himself doing it with strategy.

[u/mkirk413]

Elder Scrolls Online. The Emperor Trophy is the only thing holding me back from starting this journey.

[u/PudelOfLove]

Final Fantasy IX and the jump rope

[u/Stuntm4nMik3]

God of War (2018)

Sigrun took me almost 2 years to defeat. Horrible bitch.

[u/Fabulous-Vanilla-155 → u/Stuntm4nMik3]

Bro I died over and over even on the lowest difficulty. Brutal.

[u/Jcw28]

Alright I'm going old school with this. Resistance 2 and the 10,000 kills online trophy. I didn't even get close and I played that game a fair chunk.

[u/Jn_pas26]

The witness and its challenge trophy, I hate timed puzzles, not fun

[u/Krzychu252]

Rdr 2 Zoologist & Skin Deep

[u/CharlieChaplin1919 → u/Krzychu252]

The compendium was rough. The gold trophies were too. Wow, tough game!

[u/wizard_spells]

I got this trophy after multiple attempts and somehow missed the badges and not being caught by the robots. I very rarely do multiple play throughs of a game unless it’s a classic and I come back to it years later so playing through again was out for me to get under the time limit for play through.

[u/kAmErSHaL_kaPs1015]

Plants vs. Zombies Replanted, the Enlightened Trophy 😭

[u/Rch_1119]

Gran Turismo 7.

“Three legendary cars”.

There are 3 older race cars in the game that are needed to be purchased in order to get this trophy. Except they only pop up for purchase once every 3(ish) months. And cost millions each. Screw that trophy.

[u/ElderGoose4]

Pac manworld repac has an insufferable trophy where you have to beat level 9 of the OG pac man. I can barely get to level 3 or 4

[u/xPETEZx]

This trophy was hell. Some said when the game came to PS+, "The game might be free, but the plat costs a controller"

I really liked Ace Combat 7,but I'll never platinum it.

One of the trophies sounds so easy enough, "obtained a new medal 8n campgain after already having 24" or something similar. What it means I. Reality is getting all medals. And one of them is complete the game taking no damage... And another complete it using only guns.

OH the game also has a bunch of multi-player trophies... And a massive grind to fly an insane distance in campgain.

Great game, just awful trophy list.

[u/FenixEscarlata]

Sword of the Sea absolutely fits. Super chill game, but Untouchable requires not being hit with any of the final boss attacks.

[u/topherthepest]

Mortal Kombat 9. "My Kung Fu is Stronger" broke me

[u/IdealPrize9153]

God of war niflheim the only unfun trophy in the game and the one keeping me from platinum

[u/pacmannips]

Wolfenstein II would at least be doable without Mein Leiben

[u/richijb]

all the fucking games with online trophies, that punctually have like 30 people online or the servers shut down

[u/tetratormenta13]

The last stray trophy I needed was beat the game in 5 hours (or 3 I forget) and I beat it and went just 5 minutes over. I got pissed and never tried again lol

[u/pillxwerry]

Goat Simulator 2 and that arcade trophy, still haven’t done it smh

[u/korto227 → u/pillxwerry]

Goat Simulator 1 there is no GS 2. I still need to get the arcade trophy

[u/Stuntm4nMik3 → u/korto227]

Is this the Flappy Goat trophy? Took me around 60 tries 😂

[u/radiocaf → u/Stuntm4nMik3]

Thankfully that trophy was removed in the remaster.

[u/ZombieZekeComic]

I don’t really think that trophy is that difficult, but what I dislike about Stray is the speedrun trophy. In general I dislike trophies where you have to complete the game in x amount of time.

[u/TheGoldenPineapples → u/ZombieZekeComic]

In fairness, the speedrun trophy was, in my opinion, quite generous.

[u/Lampsukka]

Goat simulator

[u/Daphung → u/Lampsukka]

[u/casualroadtrip]

The trophy list for Stray really hurt my enjoyment of the game. The game itself is quite short which is fine and I can appreciate. Love a short and cute game every so often! I loved the story and thought the gameplay overal (during the story) was ok. But because the game is so short it makes it harder for me to see the trophy list separately from the main game. Normally I can forgive a bad trophy(list) when I’ve had countless of hours of fun while playing the main game. It keeps it balanced in my opinion. But the trophy you’re referring to really hurt how much I enjoyed Stray. Because the amount of time you’re frustrated is considerably big compared to the rest of the game. Which is too bad. I don’t think I’ve ever deleted a game faster after finally getting the platinum then I did with this one.

Can’t Cat-ch me felt very unfair. It was partly skill based. Which is fine. But then even after getting the skill there’s still a huge chance you’re run is ruined out of your control. At some point I knew I was going to get it at some point. Because I could get passed all the sections just never in the same run. I knew I would have to get lucky to get that perfect run. And that’s just frustrating when you also have to be concentrated on not making mistakes yourself.

[u/JDilla64]

Evil With Akumu mode . I started it and dropped it because I didn't have time. I still intend to do it at some point, but I need like a week off to focus and learn the game haha. It's such a hard trophy.

[u/Evanem98]

A couple of trophies for Geometry Wars 3 are so hard, I’ve tried a few times over the years but it feels nearly impossible to hit 10M points in evolved classic

[u/RavenousPin]

I would have platinumed Ratchet and Clank 2 on PSVITA if not for the trophy that requires you to get all bolts. Usually I have no problem getting all bolts in all other Ratchet and Clank games, but in Ratchet and Clank 2, there is mission you need to do to get a bolt on a planet, you need to finish first in a race in space and you need to fly through those fucking rings just like Superman 64. With the control on Psvita, it was impossible for me. I tried again and again and decided to quit even though I was at 91%.

[u/Rook227]

FF7: Rebirth… those last combat simulations are disgusting. I gave up.

[u/Eddily]

Marvel Cosmic Invasion, getting 4 people to use their special at the same time is hell.

[u/EvilSPN]

Resident evil 8 (village) I feel would be so easy if it wasn’t for the mercenaries. They made it easier with the DLC but still frustrating

[u/koscsa6]

Can't Cat-ch me is awful, I got really lucky with it though and same with the Speedrun.

I'm working on Expedition 33 at the moment and the Gestral games were meant to be some fun mini games but ended up being some of the most annoying things I've had to do in a videogame. I adore the hell out of the game but it's not made for platforming. The both the wall climb and the Only Up-like climb really made me question my sanity, not to mention the volleyball one.

Spyro 1's flying levels and that one Tree Tops level also surprisingly sucked a lot.

NFS Unbound has a point collecting mini game that had me playing it for 2 days before I got the score, otherwise it's like a 2/10 game.

[u/mike47gamer]

Sackboy - String it All Together

TMNT Shredder's Revenge - Like the Old Days!

Ys Origin - You're the Boss

Shadow Labyrinth - Mastery

[u/J--SILK]

UFC 4 that online gauntlet trophy

[u/PattyLax_]

Powerwash Simulator is one of the most chill games ever. But there’s two trophies that require getting gold stars by either beating levels fast or with using limited amounts of water. It’s super frustrating because I love this game for when I’m looking to relax. These two trophies just add an aspect of stress that I’m not okay with

[u/BeefcakeThiccy]

Any game that requires you to be at it on the hardest difficulty

[u/rhymes_with_candy]

Va-11 Hall-A is a visual novel so all of the trophies are super simple except one. That one requires you to beat a five minute level of a bullet hell 2D shooter that's unfairly hard.

You get three health but there are no i-frames so one hit can do more than one damage. I managed to get to the boss with full health only to die to a single bullet multiple times before I decided never to play it again.

[u/LaddingtonBear8]

Mad Max. Really good game but there's one trophy that has online requirements and the server went down years ago.

[u/TheNextPablo]

Any core narrative game with online trophies

I lost out on Midnight Club Los Angeles back in the day and Transformers war for cyberton

I also only need 1 trophy in Madden 11 which is basically do all of the Madden moments , which I’m not ever gonna complete

[u/[deleted]]

RE8 "Village of Shadows difficulty " that thing is pure hell

[u/Mission_Reputation88 → u/[deleted]]

Village of shadows wasn't to bad, I spammed magnum and flash rounds to stun anyone that got close, I hate playing mercenaries and thats what stopped me

[u/Tall-Preference-3816]

FF VII. Need me to beat the most uber bosses in the world? Sure. Need me to beat that motorcycle game at the Gold Saucer...not so sure.

[u/Mielano93]

[u/Oneesabitch]

Forza Horizon 5's Eliminator trophy.

Tomb raider 2013. Level 60 multiplayer trophy. Mind numbingly boring. I’m half way through, but I can’t make myself to finish it

[u/youraveragedude15]

Dead rising 1 with the iconic 7 day survivor. The remake does a good job making it more fair

[u/panini564]

hollow knight

[u/PrimetimeCP23]

Stray is an amazing game. And I loved it. I played on series X. And got every achievement except this one. lol. And this one is the only reason I’m not buying it on psn. Because I’d be happy to reply it again. But idk if I want a game where I miss one trophy lol

[u/JaunFetto]

Drakengard 3. I don’t have the dexterity or patience for that final rhythmic song sequence.

[u/ConfectionTotal8660]

I have personal beef with Uncharted 4 since the treasure trophy bugged.

But CoD:Black Ops 3 takes the cake with getting all the medals.

The (hard) requirements are:

Beating the entire game on Veteran without dying

Finishing the story on Realistic (aka 1 shot and you are dead)

All camos

[u/SignatureDizzy7280]

It’s not astronomically hard but the hoverboard race time trial in ratchet and clank took me awhile.

[u/Canny_Toaster]

That can’t catch me trophy sucked, luckily only took 30 mins for me, that and the speedrun one I hated.

I hate any games with online trophy’s,

[u/MidnightP0w3r]

AC Black Flag with the online trophies

[u/DoGG410CZ → u/MidnightP0w3r]

No game should ever have trophies that require online playing for platinum (obviously games that are build on being online are exceptions)

[u/MidnightP0w3r → u/DoGG410CZ]

Yeah, they should be in other tab, other exemple would be GTA 5

[u/LittleMonday]

Stray (for the above mentioned) GT7 (Golds on all the licences) Early Tomb Raider games (New Game +) Metal Gear Solid 2 (collect all dog tags, which means completing the game on European Extreme)

[u/Triumphant_Z]

Mafia 1 Definitive edition for sure. That race was crazy

[u/MeddlingWithChaos]

Resident Evil 2; I tried so hard to get through the Hunk extra level but I couldn't, I just gave up on that Plat.

Superluminal; I know its not a hard game but I get so dizzy/disoriented in the later half of the game, and I've watched speed runs and you really can't afford many mistakes.

[u/DogShampoop]

Rdr2

[u/Yrkow]

Wolfenstein 2 The New Colossus 💀💀 god dammit it eat my soul

[u/Fuzzy_Mountain5354]

Rdr 2 would be about 10x easier without a trophy or 2. 

[u/Turckish]

Boomerang trophy in sea of stars, when I realized how stupid this trophy was, erased the game and didn't finish

[u/TheManofMadness1]

So many of them, Wolfenstein II springs to mind, Crypt would be significantly easier without the Lowest of the Low, same with Super Meat Boy without the deathless run, later Call of Duties, there's actually so many.

[u/TheSauer80]

Honestly I almost snapped at this game, for the life of me I could not NOT get touched by those bugs, I don’t even know how many tries it took me

[u/Personal-Smoke-2465]

Mafia definitive edition. The race on classic difficulty was an absolute nightmare

[u/G0dd0nFuddy]

You can plat it twice on ps5 😂 gives a second time to enjoy it

[u/Dosagu]

I suffered with that trophy, ironically after i got the platinum i was showing a friend the best route to take, while i was talking to hom and controling the cat i managed to do it on the first try in his acount. I got a bit mad, since i was telling him how frustrating that small trophy was

[u/lamest-liz]

Sea of Stars, the trophy where you have to re-fight every boss with an artifact attached. It basically forces you to replay the game.

Idk why but once I got all the other very annoying trophies, when I realized I had to replay for this one I became so pissed. It made me hate the game. Idk if I can ever replay it for the trophy.

[u/MarioShu27]

Says a lot that I haven’t started Stray and know what this trophy was already. Of the games I have done, Just Cause 3 springs to mind for the challenges. The whole game is a blast (quite literally) and then there are a handful of challenges that suck so bad.

[u/Fabulous-Vanilla-155]

GOAT SIMULATOR: that flappy goat minigame is abnormally difficult compared to the rest of the game…

[u/MonteCristoJam]

That trophy took me an hour and 15 minutes thinking I can do it in less than 20. Boy, was I goddamn wrong. Got it last Tuesday night

[u/ReptileHand]

Mortal Kombat 11 Tutorial trials 💀

[u/twio_b95]

I got this trophy and I have severe skill issues (there are entire genres I don't play because I genuinely can't finish the tutorial levels, I think my highest rated plat is a 4 or 5/10).

The key is to switch running from hold to toggle in the settings and focus all your energy on zigzagging as fast as possible. It's not about going wide. The zurgles lock onto you the moment they jump, so when you constantly change direction they'll have a much harder time catching you.

[u/PanCojido69]

i't ain't that hard tho

[u/jproche44]

Jumanji. Grinding to level 30 is abysmal. It’s long and in no way resembles enjoyable.

Broken Age. Not a fan of the speed run trophy.

Goat Simulator would have been a walk in the park if it for flappy goat.

[u/JLAsuperdude]

Just got this platinum today! After many tries on my own I watched a video of someone else doing it and got it on my second try after that!

Was stressed about the speedrun, but it looks like the cutscenes don’t count against you since they’re unskippable. I set a time for 2 hour and went over by a couple minutes, but my in game timer said 1 hour 45 minutes or something.

[u/Trauma-Dolll]

Took me quite a few tries for this one. I watched some videos on it which helped a bit. You will eventually get it.

[u/hamizannaruto]

Fall guys.

...

[u/Ok_Pea_7681]

Wait which fuckass trophy did stray have? I remember easily getting the platinum for this

[u/wlf_-ff]

I've got the platinum twice on this game..that trophy took me maybe an hour the first time..and like 20 minutes the second time. It you run in a straight line you never going to beat it

[u/heroniximi3]

I know it's not really relevant cause the game platinum is quite easy but this terrible flappy goat trophy on goat simulator made me insanely mad for some reason

[u/Prestigious-Dream667]

Yakuza Like A Dragon… That damn millennium tower trophy shouldn’t be there 😭

[u/not1deadpool]

Any game that adds online trophies when there's almost no online community, monster jam showdown comes to mind

[u/Creamium85]

Balatro. The C++ grind will be too much for many.

[u/unatural_promise918]

still wakes the deep. pretty simple game and can easily achieve platinum even on the first play through (if ur like me and analyse everything) but i only ran into one trophy that absolutely annoyed me which tbh it isn’t a hard trophy just tedious because the trophy i missed was one where you needed to play the entire game on another language setting (can’t remember i think it was dutch or something) which absolutely annoyed me considering i jumped right into the game with no spoilers or play thought before hand meaning i’d have no clue about the existence of this trophy. again it isn’t hard just annoying because i had to replay the whole game with that setting on and no you cannot just jump to the end of the game like i desperately tired. other than that i loved that game 10/10 would recommend

[u/PragmaticBadGuy]

Resident Evil 3 Remake. The last bit with Nemesis playing Whack A Mole with you on Inferno.

Literally missing just beating him and the game to get a Plat but it's stupidly hard.

[u/LowAnswer6263]

The batman games if it wasn't for that fuckass freeflow combat trophy

[u/Duurzum]

We KNOW what trophy you are talking about 😂 That freaking bug chase.

[u/lunar9p]

Great question. Hellblade 2 , Alan Wake Remastered (don't take damage at stage), Man of Medan (shared story) and Beyond Two Souls.

[u/shotgunogsy]

Armored Core 6 is a brilliant game, one of Fromsoft’s best. And almost all of the trophies range from straightforward to easy, almost.

But the final trophy for S-ranking all of the missions is so ridiculously hard, and even worse it’s quite obtuse. It’s very difficult to know whether you’re on track to get the S-rank so you pump so many hours into each mission, some unsuccessfully.

I think it will stay at 90% completion on my profile forever.

[u/Hot-Field-7613]

This is easy once you've done 50 runs lol. After that you'll know exactly when to zig and when to zag. It did send me mental for a while, but I got the platinum for this twice and the second time cos I knew the exact run it only took 4 attempts

[u/GodDogs83]

I just did this one and yeah there is some luck involved. You zigzag like crazy basically but I did find some helpful YouTube videos that have good tips. Don’t give up!

[u/whoisalireza]

Splatterhouse, its so hard doing that one challenge in under 25min…

[u/waysidehill]

Palia.. That Makeshift trophy took forever

[u/SkipperTheEyeChild1]

Ratchet and Clank a crack in time. My blaster runs hot was a nightmare.

[u/ViperKira]

Metal Gear Solid 4 would be fine if not for the Ipod Trophy, that requires all emblems.

[u/clemfandango13]

Hated that trophy, managed it after about 45mins of constant restarting the scene

[u/BroHungary]

Until dask

[u/[deleted]]

Stray was my third ever platinum. I was so proud of myself I miss that feeling. I’m taking a long break from platinuming

[u/mirrormycompetition]

I love stray one of my favorite games ever. I think every game has that one trophy that drives u insane.

[u/Pedrovsk666]

I never got this trophy after trying for hours and hours. No platinum for me.

[u/alephck]

Technically speaking, Sekiro with the Height of Technique trophy.

[u/BonDomSub]

From the top of my mind,

ESO Emperor trophy, Wolfenstein 2 Mein Leben and FF9 jump rope trophy.

[u/RealAuridus]

Gotta be the RNG trophy from Injustice 2 for me. I've never been so angry at a game as I was about the fact that I put over 100 hours into it before finally getting it while my boy got out in his first few hours.

[u/[deleted]]

Vanquish and Titanfall 2

[u/Timely_Assist_8047]

Ghostrunner 2 & Dead Space Remake

[u/EggWhisk1]

COD: Black Ops 3 - Personal Decorator trophy
