- Ever felt the urge to platinum a game? You are not the only one, but the question is why? Why get into going for 100% completion on games?
Well this video will give just a few reasons as to why you should consider it yourself. I hope you enjoy, and I hope this video inspires someone to start their journey to collecting those shiny plats!

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
Yup you bring up a really good point when it comes to avoiding games as well. I found making a alternative account helps me play games casually and not obsess over completion percentages.
Totally agree
If you want a challenge, try Platting hades. i hated that game so much I finished it 2 days ago @@Instinx_
or it has online trophies like Red Dead Redemption 2 and GTA V. I can't stress enough how online trophies should be set aside from the Platinum run, especially in case the game's servers shut down (most recent example, AC Unity)
@@danimmmmm AC Unity has online ones still obtainable. I did it like 2 months ago, matchmaking with other people
I'm honestly new to platinuming games myself. So far, I've only got two: Harry Potter lego years 1-4 and Harry Potter lego years 5-7. I saw some other people online trying out this new lego challenge- do every downloadable lego game on their system- and I thought I'll give it a go. So far working on platinum 3- Lego Superheroes 2. Loving every minute of it.
that's amazing to hear! As long as you enjoy it. Once it starts feeling like a chore then I would say take a break, or plat games only you really enjoy.
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
Exactly. Enjoy the rest of the game for what they are.
Great video as always bro, but you forgot to mention the struggle of cleaning your backlog lol
Such a good point. haha
Love the video!
Thanks you Ale!
My friends usually say that it's not worth it or that they don't get anything out of it and leaves me dumbfounded
haha yeah. I have a few friends like that as well. Its all subjective at the end of the day, as long as you are enjoying what you are doing.
Nice video bro 👌👍👍👍👍
Thank you! Appreciate it.
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.
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.
Great video bro 🎉 What software do you use to edit your videos?
Thanks bro. I use premier pro
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.
Could not have said it better myself!
Because of the trophy hunting creators ive discovered I've gotten into getting platinums myself
That's amazing bro. Hope you keep hunting plats for a long time!
W video lots of true points also
Thank you bro!
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.
Nice
For all the trophy hunters out there. If you are into retro gaming also. Try out retro achievements. Awesome way to play old games with community achievements added in. (Not a bot or sponsored. Thank you)
I think the community is the one of the best part of this hobby fr 💯
I agree 100%. I would honestly say its the best part. I have met so many cool people while doing this.
I'm ever so sorry...I had to stop watching this video and get back to Crash Bandicoot 4.......it's about time eh lol.
Nice video.
haha no problem. You got that!
I got about 14 games in my backlog all sitting around 20 - 40%. Currently on 73 Plats so before I hit that 100, the goal is to clean up most (hopefully all) of the backlogs
I rate you got that for sure! The tedious/boring games are going to be the real pain lol.
Based editing 🔥
Appreciate it bruv!
I send it to my friend W video
Thank you! Appreciate the share!
Because of the platinum trophy you experience soooo much more w game has to offer that a general player just would not even know existed
Like god of war ragnarok, you experience SOOO much more story and bosses i didn’t even know existed
Could not have said this better myself. Amazing game with amazing "side" content.
Nice video bro! Totally agree
Thanks man. Glad you agree.
Nice video mate!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
The man who inspired me to go for plats on steam💦
we love to see it!
i would never ever waste time for a checklist again. Not worth... it destroys how you buy, play and also it affects the gameplay in a bad way.
yeah for sure. playing what you want is most important. As long as you are having fun.
That’s why I set rules for myself.
1 - I will not check trophies before buying or during the first play through. Buy games that I know that I want to play.
2 - I do my first play through the way that I want to play the game. Trophies are clean up afterwards if I want to do them
3 - I only platinum games that I think that the platinum trophy will enhance my experience in the game. If it’s too grindy, I won’t do it. If it’s a descent challenge, I will go for the platinum, but if it feels impossible without cheesing it, then I don’t do it either.
This way I can still get the most out of games by platinuming the games that I love, and not souring the memories I have of games that I haven’t platinumed. If you can find the right balance, it’s totally worth it in the end.
@@fall-neckthetallneck2977 There are also many great games with bad platinum quests. Doing stuff that is not really worth. If you wouldn´t do that by yourself, it is really worthless stuff in many cases. Rare exeptions these days. The time you could have used to play your backlog or a different game in general (or doing other stuff in your life). I mean it is a list created around the game itself (and developer must do that, some doesn´t want that, but they have to). In some cases it is implemented to increase the player time. And it can create a sort of stress in your mind. That´s what i mean. It can (or most likely will) affect the gameplay experience in a bad way. Because at some point you try to find out what you have to to and you play like that. A second playthrough can be fun and challenging as well for the game itself. And here trophies can affect is also badly.
@@SavasKKS While I agree that there is a fair amount of games with fairly bad trophy lists, that’s why I don’t platinum them. I only platinum games that I love and if I think that doing the trophy list will be reasonably achieved without being too grindy or being frustrating.
I get that for some people, finding a balance that works isn’t easy. But so far I have very fond memories of the 37 platinums that I do have.
I have Burnout Paradise Remastered sitting in my small backlog for a few years now, and i am thinking about playing it and going for the platinum trophy. I heard its a 3/10 difficulty, but there are a few online trophies, which is off-putting
yeah totally understand. You could try and create a boosting post on PSP Profiles. I'm sure you could find people willing to help you.
Anyone with the Crash 4 Platinum has my respect.
I am doing bo3 right now and crash 4 is still my hardest plat. It was so fun though.
W Video!
Thank you broski
Yo bro, can I ask what naruto game is that?
Its Naruto Ultimate ninja storm 3 if im not mistaken.
@@Instinx_ thank you
At how many plats you considered experienced?
Don’t think there is a particular point at which I consider someone experienced. All plats are different so I don’t know how much experience plays a role.
When I got a PS5, I started to take trophy hunting more seriously. I have now 13 on my list, from pinball games, to Ratchet and Clank. Currently doing a mix between Stellar Blade and Lego City Undercover. I am though careful with what games I pick for a Platinum run.
Love seeing that! Keep it up. Just be careful limiting yourself or not trying games because the plat might be too grindy or tedious. You could miss out on amazing games like that. DMC 5 as an example.
Good work Buddy. I got the platinum for Days Gone. What am amazing game
Well done bro! That's one of the Sony exclusives that i haven't played yet.
Got my iam bread plat yesterday ( if you know what it is
Massive congrats! I do know it and I do know its really hard.
@@Instinx_ appreciate it and yea it's definitely hard for sure
Surgeon simulator time.

Need to get rid of multiplayer trophies as part of the platinum
Its one of the things i hate the most! Plats becoming unobtainable because of servers going offline.
I have already platinumed 41 games within only a year
That is a lot in a year! Keep it up.
Whats your psn so i can invite u..... never played online i think its time i start.
