This video takes a closer look at a game with a trophy list that is widely considered to be the hardest of all time.
It's also the first video I've made on this channel. Naturally, I'm still trying to figure things out, so any feedback is very welcome. See you guys in the next video.
I uploaded a new video on trophy hunting! czcams.com/video/D06-0-mTiaw/video.html
This video is cool as hell.
Please consider doing a video of accessible platinum trophies that even a preschooler can unlock them!
I may need some help in that regard considering I can't even Platinum certain Outright Games titles...

God Bless You All. Amen. God Send.
It's called not playing this stupid
S H I T game. It's not fun. It's boring. There are 1000s of better games out there than this trash of a game.
This is hardest in terms of difficulty but not terms of time consumption like the star ocean which is just ridiculous
Honestly having the trophy difficult be 10/10 undersells just how ball busting this is.
This platinum makes other 10/10s look like a joke in comparison
maybe, like meltzer in wrestling, there should be an 11/10
super meat boy is no joke bruuh
Jokes aside, it’s abso”lute”ly the hardest.
if there was ever a more appropriate rating, it would be 11 (maybe even) 12 out of 10
When Crypt of the Necrodancer was first released, the devs didn't think All Zones Coda was even *possible*.
I just had this video pop up on my CZcams recommended. I thought it was very informative and very well put together! I got the platinum trophy back in June, I was the most recent person to get it (I'm the guy who did the entire game with a PS4 controller) and ever since i've been trying to encourage others to not be intimidated by the difficulty and to give it a try, because it's an incredible game and it really deserves more attention. Thanks for shedding light on what actually makes it so difficult. You earned a sub from me :)
Glad to hear you liked the video! And yeah I recognized your name from the PSNProfiles forums haha, congrats on getting this platinum
I just picked up crypt from the steam summer sale and am loving it despite not playing many rythm games. I'll remember this comment and not give up when it gets difficult, which It is in equal measures a lot of fun!
you should make a strategy guide
And then there's me who still hasn't beat zone 3 cadence because of those damn goblins
@@xArchivist "using a ps4 controller is unfeasable" lmao
I thought nothing could top the Iron God achievement from The End is Nigh, where you have to beat the game (around 300 screens) without dying. But the way you described the Coda character, even to someone with no previous knowledge of the game, is just… wow
I've done both things on Steam and at some point you can't really compare them since TEIN is pure execution-based while Coda requires constant new assessments even if a run only takes ~10 minutes. Ironically they both took me around the same amount of hours of attempts/practice but I'll give you that the Coda grind was far more enjoyable. Iron God turned me into a worse person :(
Max i could do in terns of difficulty was the plat of bleed 1 & 2, probably nothing compared to these two games(i really don't want to know for myself tbh for now as bleed already left me insane enough) but still extremely hard for me and very satisfying
Purple goblin girl moment
And yet some people speedrun Coda Low%
@@johnhawkins5314 yeah, and those are people who devoted thousands of hours to the game. Words cannot describe how nearly impossible Coda is to master compared to every other character in the game. Necrodancer is already fucking bullshit hard in its own right and Coda makes the game even more so
Watching Coda move around genuinely made my heart rate increase
This game actually almost gave me a heart attack cause of the heart beat sync. Was exhausted from a long hot day at work and trying to keep up the beat I could feel my heart beating erratically and I needed to stop for the day. Fun time.
oh my god...
@@peterwang5660 Don't worry, was like when the game first came out so years ago.
The robot fight in Cuphead actually had a similar effect on me
I was in the middle of a genuine panic attack when I beat it and couldn't stop shaking
Needless to say I took a few weeks hiatus before returning to complete the game
Just had the same thing happen to me….. I probably shouldn’t be playing this game since my family has a history of heart disease.
glad you're okay but it's very funny on paper that the rhythm game made your heart beat erratically
as a person who has played this game for a while, I can agree with everything said on this video. Though, despite hilariously unforgiving and having an absolutely ludicrous difficulty, this is also one of the most creative and fun games I have ever played. Please give it a shot if you ever so slightly consider it, and the Amplified DLC adds a good bunch of interesting things too
Dude this game doesn't look so hard
@@EnglezoArkas It looks easy but in practice it's incredibly difficult. You have to micromanage so many things at once. The beat, keeping the beat, the enemies, and how the enemies work. You can't just do enemies one at a time, often they come in groups. It requires so many things you have to keep track of.
@@isolatedegg3234 i haven't even played the game and just looking at that 2x beat speed, enemies, items, the level itself, character movement, using items, looking forward to know where to navigate cause it's fucking random, i mean just doing all char %run once and dying like at character 3/4 would burn my soul out man and genuinely make me tired, like work tired, this seems like a lot of energy and focus to actually be able to do it.
@@EnglezoArkasnewcomers normally take a good ammount of tries to beat a single zone, good luck. Each enemy has his own movement patterns so think like chess, but you dont know the moves each piece does, and they all act at the same time
As a person who has gotten the lowest of the low achievement (mastering everything took 2 years)
I can say that I will probably be still playing this game just so that I don't forget the torture I went through
Holy shit bro thats crazyyy.
Hi, YT just happened to recommend me this video today. I'd like to share a small piece of personal lore:
Back in 2017 and 2018 I was studying abroad in the Netherlands and it was the time I managed to complete my Lowest of the Low run on Steam, after >3 months of persistence. By that same time Floriss (whose footage appears in this video and someone I was in touch with) was also grinding the run and managed to pull it off in a matter of days of difference. While chatting and sharing the hype he mentioned that he was Dutch, so I suggested to meet up and have a celebration beer. Which was something that happened the week after and I still keep it as a very special moment of my time abroad. Not many people will share a moment this specific with you and fully understand you. He was an extremely nice person and still one of the best toasts in my life :)
It's a pretty big coincidence that two people completed LotL only days apart, while also living so close near each other, and it's cool that you guys turned it into a memorable moment. Thanks for sharing
Hey Alex! That was such a lovely comment.
I'm very glad that we had the opportunity to meet and celebrate in person, as I too found it to be a very special moment. It was nice being able to share the joy and struggle of NecroDancer, as well as talk other things related. Like you said yourself, I don't think there's many ocassions where you can find someone that will share a moment this specific with you and whom can fully understand you. It was a very unique experience. Some amazing conversations over great food and drinks. Not to mention you're a very humble and great person, so all together I enjoyed my time A LOT.
Even though I haven't seen or spoken to you in quite a while (since we're both busy adults now), this post brought back great memories. And I just wanted to say that whatever you're pursuing in your life, knowing that I wish you all the best and with the right mindset and determination you can achieve anything. But you already know that ;)
Just reading these 2 comments is an interesting experience.
This is so wholesome.
After reading this no one will ever convince me that life is just a pure coincidence, NEVER
I have about 2500 hours in this game. Love it to bits. I never got the platinum (or all achievements on steam on PC, which has the same achievements as PS trophies) because of the last two trophies and I didn't have the patience to grind for it... I still love playing the game and competing for leaderboards in speed and score categories.
Recently a serious attempt at All Steam Achievements speedrun was done by a player called Tufwfo. At the time of getting it, he also had about 2500 hours in the game. He got all the achievements in 12 hours, this was including the Amplified DLC which adds a few more achievements and an extra zone (There is also the 13-characters All Characters Run, as opposed to the pre-DLC 9-characters. However, no 13-char low% thankfully. The 9-char is hard enough). Spent the last 2 hours hunting for the three green bats using a character that can see all enemies on the map and resetting over and over (with regular gameplay, you find about 1 green bat roughly every 100 hours).
Overall it's a really cool run to watch.
A few players have pushed this even further. There are a handful of players who also completed Coda low%. This game's skill ceiling seems to be endless and frequently I see insane feats achieved by some players. The speedrun and score leaderboards constantly getting improved, even after all these years. And constant new and crazy ways and challenges being shown to be possible
What players of the are you watching? I've been thinking of getting back into the game and was curious what the community is like.
Oh! And a few weeks ago a big new patch came out. The whole game was rewritten from scratch, some annoying bugs and crashes fixed. TONS of quality of life improvements!
@@EvenFlow391 I'd look into CONDOR (crypt of the necrodancer online racing) reruns, tons of good players to look into and just a good time in general cuz these races are fascinating
I’ve simply beaten the Golden Lute with Aria in a single zone mode and I consider that to be my greatest gaming achievement of all time.
Same bro, to us peasants Aria alone is an evererst unto itself.
I see this channel going big places. Already 2 videos that nobody touches on, very detailed and well edited. Good luck, glad I’m here EARLY.
I couldn’t agree more!
czcams.com/video/xRbi6v2ljjU/video.html
@MYTAINT ISSTANK he uploaded a new one, and it’s actually great!
You were wrong.
Coming from someone who has Impossible Boy (the hardest Meat Boy iron man) Necrodancer is in a league of its own. Nothing even comes close. If SMB is a 10/10 in terms of difficulty than Necrodancer is a 20/10. Amazing breakdown video dude.
Crypt trophy earners couldn't even do smb
@@corpmobb4134 Uhh… no. More than half of the people that have the CotN plat also have the SMB plat. CotN tends to attract people from outside the rhythm game community due to it’s notoriety amongst trophy hunters.
Damn the smb platinum was horrible, it did make me appreciate the game more though, the complexity of some levels was really interesting and I found out so much about the game like that the frames per second play a part in the speed of the game, god I will never do Crypt, NEVER
@@clivejoposh6138 Actually since making that comment I’ve started playing it and the game is honestly amazing and so much fun. I really highly recommend it if you have an interest in rhythm games. If you’re the type of trophy hunter that doesn’t want to mar their account then play it on PC or Switch, which is what I play it on. Someday if I feel confident enough I’ll start it up on PS4 but probably only if I can pull off an all characters run. Best I’ve managed so far is making it to the golden lute with Aria on a low % run. I still stand by my previous comment though. The game is balls to the wall hard.
Excellent video, there was a thread on r/trophies a couple weeks ago asking what the all time hardest platinum was, Diablo 2 Resurrected, Fortnite, ESO, Super Meat Boy, DMC5, and Wolfenstein 2 came up pretty often. But Crypt was the one brought up the most, and for good reason. It’s a plat I would never dream of going for and I know basically every other trophy hunter would agree.
The fact some people even have this trophy..makes me question if any of them cheated. I wouldn’t even blame them lol.
I found this to be a very informative and well put together video for what is undoubtedly the hardest platinum on PSN. I’m looking forward to seeing what videos you come out with in the future.
Thanks for the kind words man :) Hope you like the next video.
Wanneer komt die uit dan?
I just watched the cod video it brought up some great memories. Stay on this man, I want to see your channel grow!
:)
I speedran Melody for a bit, got just under 8 mins. She's such a fun character, I would just melt away and my fingers moved themselves... I'll get obsessed with the game again one day, I'm kind of busy having other hobbies which don't take 100s of hours...
(Great video!!!)
This video popped up in my recommend, glad it did since I was thinking about going for the platinum but now I know that I have to prepare myself mentally before I attempt it 😂. Great video!
Thanks man! Best of luck to you if you ever go for it hahah
I wouldn't mind seeing more videos like this going over some of the harder platinums still currently obtainable.
Good work! Would never have realized this was a first video.
After about 1700 hous of playing crypt, I beat an all zones run with coda, and I have a switch, so I couldn't use a keyboard/mouse
Damn dude
you have carpal tunnel. no question
and i am a 🥔
good vid! playing this game even casually looks an anxiety inducing nightmare
As someone who obtained the Platinum recently, I can say with ease that this video does a great job getting the point across. It's a huge challenge that demands a lot from the player. It may all seem overwhelming at first, but the satisfaction you get while playing and mastering the complex mechanics is worth it. I've had so much fun with the game and I don't regret starting it whatsoever.
Coming back to this video now almost feels nostalgic and makes me feel even better about my achievement. I encourage everyone who watched this well put video to give the game a go.
I don't know anything about the game but I absolutely loved this video! Looking forward to what you post next
:) hope you like the next video
This is the game I play on commutes to work. The ride is just long enough to do a run and the music is really awesome! And honestly there are enough challenges in this game for a lifetime :D
After almost a year I beat Aria low% but idk how I will do the other characters. Trying Monk low% right now and the farthest I was is Zone 3. And I don't even know how to get started with Bolt, with how fast the game is with her it just makes me thumb hurt. Tried with joy cons, a ps4 knockoff controller, and on keyboard, it's too fast for me on either lol
man, this looks like such a great game! i first heard about this beast of a plat from psnprofiles, & i thought "hey, i love a torturous challenge! all the more rewarding!"
i dunno if i should challenge my vision with all of this flashing 😵💫 i'm so enchanted already, though! the concept alone is scintillating... i've always wanted an RPG with rhythm game combat mechanics.
this is a wonderful video! thanks so much for making it ^_^
You can turn off the flashing floor lights in settings.
Even if very difficult, this game is really good! Thanks for talking about it!
This is insanity. Imagine being the first to get the platinum. Great video.
Truly a masochistic and insane challenge. Your ears and brain really need to be put to the test for this platinum trophy.
This really made me feel better about my chances of actually getting the Hollow Knight platinum trophy.
Edit: GOT IT!
The madman did it
I'm currently hunting this game on Steam, I am 105 hours in and popped my Achievement no. 18. At the moment I'm working on Aria, the challenge is unfathomable for most people haha but I'm a stubborn fella and I'll probably work on this for years! Thanks for the video :)
As of December 2023, only 21 people have it
Very well done video! Very much appreciated since you saved me from playing this game on my vita lol now I know to play cadence of hyrule on the switch instead!
I've resigned myself to never even unlocking Coda, let alone winning with them
Same, Coda is seriously one of the most ridiculous challenges I've ever come across. It's crazy how even if you do end up beating it, you probably still have to grind for 100s of hours for the platinum
Saw your iReapZz video first but man you're videos both are fantastic. Keep up the good work and you'll blow tf up.
Well done on this mammoth task
Saw this video for the first time around November of 2022. The way you presented the Crypt and its ridiculous difficulty has inspired me to give it a try myself. I couldn't believe my ears when you were describing coda.
I've been hooked ever since. The fast-paced gameplay and simple yet difficult to master enemy designs, it really kept me coming back, even if I just died to the final boss. It's the sort of game where a situation rarely feels out of your control and where every death is an opportunity to reflect. What could've you done better?
I absolutely love the beat mechanic as well. A rhythm rogue-like is a unique combination I've never seen before and it's very well executed here. It even led me to try some other similar games like BPM: Bullets Per Minute and Metal Hellsinger, with which I've been having a blast.
Needless to say, after around 300 hours of playtime, i managed to get my first coda clear in, and I'm well on my way to beat lowest of the low.
Thank you, sincerely, for introducing me to my all time favorite game.
It's cool to hear you found your favourite game from my video. Good luck on lowest of the low as well, let me know if you end up beating it!
You earned yourself a new sub! Congrats. Great video!
:)
Def make more videos about trophy hunting this was amazing
This is my favorite video fr fr
Man what a great video, definitely going to suss out your other content
:)
Saw my brother grinding a Coda run. I have no clue if he's one of those 10 people having the achievement.
Edit: no.
Probably not
@@8strate8 yeah I don't think so either, but I'm gonna ask him anyway
@@ultralowspekken any update?
Do he ever get it ?
Not. :C
This just popped up in my reccomended. Good timing, too, since a new DLC for the game just came out :D
I got stressed just by watching this
I found this really interesting, ive seen it on the store but had no idea how serious the game is.
I've been hunting for 4 years and I still have no idea how anyone can do this
I knew that the necrodancer platinum was really hard but this is just insane
Brilliant video!
I've got many 0.1 - 1% trophies but there ain't no way in hell I'm going near this! Great video mate.
This is your first vid?! New sub here this stuff is amazing 😁
This channel has a lot of potential
So crazy, what an evil mix of things to think about.. the double speed part gave me a bit of anxiety XD
Good job man 👍
I have 495 platinum.
Dmc1,2,3,4,5,
Crash bandicoot 1,2,3,4, cart
Re2,3,4,5,6
Max Payne 3.
Dead space 1,2,3
Mirrors edge,1,2
and many many others.)
hope in the future sony will let us arrange our games in order + delete games even if we have trophies on them
Keep up the amazing content! 198th sub
Great video 👏🏻
Nice video man
HOW IN THE WORLD DO YOU ONLY HAVE 3K SUBS...this video was excellent!
:)
Cool vid!!! What are you gonna focus on more,popular games and their achievements or impossible achievements from a bit of unknown games?
Both. Next video will focus on the latter though (impossible achievements from indie games)
@@xArchivist oh cool!!! Are you a achievement hunter yourself?
@@royalejappie9222 Yeah! I have a video on my channel about earning every far cry trophy/achievement
@@xArchivist Nice! I’ll take my time to watch your vids. I hope your channel will grow fast and you’ll soon get your CZcams achievements ;)
Nice video :) keep it up !
Just thinking about trying to get that platinum trophy is making my head hurt
This distracted me from my depression so I must subscribe.
Man, i have Necrodancer on PC, and to this day, i still haven’t completed this game ONCE. I’m no stranger to roguelikes, but the only one i have ever been able to beat reliably is Binding of Isaac. It is quite interesting seeing such a hard trophy tied to a game like this, but i’m not surprised.
I would highly recommend anyone to play Necrodancer at some point, especially if you have custom music on your PC. It’s hard, but it is certainly an experience like no other!
When I was younger I'd loved to sink my time into these kind of ultrahard games.
Now I just don't have the time, but I still complete as much as I can.
Sounds like a challenge am willing to take
When your favorite game has the most difficult platinum to earn
Hey I was wondering when your next upload on trophies will be, your editing is on point
I have 2 other videos planned before I return to trophy hunting, is there anything you wanted to see in particular?
@@xArchivist I mean if it involves anything I don't mind, your content is really entertaining
I would be interested if you could make a series about the DLC trophies in uncharted 2 and 3 because they´re also a hell of a pain and i think it would be a good tribute to them after the servers got shut down^^ I think many people would like that topic :D
Can't wait for the character "Segno" who dies whenever you look at the screen.
Great video man :D
ty :)
Taking this as a personal challenge
and here I always thought I was trash for finding this game ridiculously hard
i was like oh you are going for it?
We have unlocked 4D chest.
Also, this game reminds me of The Enchanted Cave games, but at least the enemies in that game are usually stationary and there’s no beat to constantly follow.
As a huge fan of the binding of isaac and spelunky, I see this as a challenge of blood and gore, my favorite ones.
i have 30+ plats. i tend to go for pretty difficult ones. bc i also tend to play rather difficult games. but i never go for absolutely mind bending ones. alot of rouge likes have very difficult trophies. like no hit. or no hit + timed. its insane.
Watching this sort of thing honestly makes me glad I don't have the sort of personality that compels me to really care about achievements. I just could never do stuff like this. I don't have the fine motor control or nervous system to handle it. Trying might kill me.
every time I think it’s done there’s ANOTHER trophy
I haven’t even beat aria lol
I’m glad you mentioned the bats cause they rare
I just got this recommended as soon as i got crypt of the necrodancer
Is the last music in this video from Donkey Kong Country 2? That's awesome taste.
Yeah! It's aquatic ambience
Oh, so it's from the first one. Whole trilogy has a remarkable soundtrack. Immediately knew it's from one of those great games.
after watching this video i decided to platinum this game after bought i play 20 hours in just 3 days and still playing i also watch too many guides tips and playtrogh. i hope i can platinum between 600-1000 hours if i ever complete this challenge ill come back here and say i did it.
great video
The game i came back to over 40 times and never was bored. Yet it is so simple and quite easy (at first with cadence). Then you realise there are more characters. And then the real fun beginns. You try to beat the game with other characters like eli, melody and the others. But once you reach aria you will need to git gut. And I don't wanna start about coda. Still trying to get out of the tombs to heavy metal beats. Also Danny B. has shot the bird with the soundtrack of this game. And obviously all other versions of the soundtrack are made in heaven, too. Which is only topped by the fact that you can use your own soundtrack, too.
Best game ever. So hyped for the new dlc.
You sir..just made me watch a 15 min vid without skipping...
awesome video! I don't wanna touch that game haha 😬
Oh boy, this challenge sure does sound tough! It would totally suck if a DLC was released for it that added _another zone_ and _four more characters_ and removed previous options like the phasing ring. That would really be terrible, wouldn't it 😭😭
I wouldn't have thought this game would have an achievement like that
Doom for PlayStation had an update where several things got much harder, specifically Pinkeys being insanely buffed. The run is considered almost impossible on Nightmare and only like 3 people have gotten the platinum since the update. Vourdex was the most recent and he has some videos on his channel showing the insanity of Nightmare difficulty after the update.
Which doom game?
@@xArchivist original 1993 one for $4.99. It might also have come with doom eternal.
@@xArchivist czcams.com/video/T5QnAKmsw2M/video.html this shows the difference
Omg it's the dancer one... I am not a one who easily set astray from his goal... But the moment I laid my hands on this game, despair sunk to my heart. Didn't want to bother with it cuz I know I will love it and I will try to perfect it...
Even though it's nearly impossible...
Crypt was able to make games like Super Meat Boy, CupHead and Hollow Knight look like the My Name is Mayo trilogy If you ask me that's a trophy in of itself
If anything I think you're underselling how hard Bolt/Coda's double speed is. Since the actual songs are unchanged you basically have relearn the timing of the entire game to play that character, or else you'll be accidentally skipping turns left and right. I beat Aria's final boss in single-zone mode but I refused to even do the second zone as Bolt.
All my rarest trophies come from this game. Doing the speedrun one with Cadance is probably my biggest gaming feat. One day I'll do a full Aria run
You should maybe also discuss the achievements added in the DLC as they make 100% completion even more impossible.
Nice video :D
Holy Molly, I get PTSD when i saw Monk. Took me literally 2 months to win.
This game appeared free on the store randomly in 2021, i quickly got it.
While I never thought to attempt each and every character in this game anyway, it did make me sad that I was never able to clear Aria to conclude the base game's little story... never even bought the Amplified DLC after that
Hey wow, I’ve been trying for a couple months for this one 😁
Yo I played that game and I've never heard anybody talk about it. I absolutely love that game
Crypt of the necrodancer is one of the most underrated games I have played.
