Hey guys,

Not really new to LYN, but stretching myself to check out other parts of it.


Short intro, used to be a strong trophy hunter but due to uni and then work (and also finances) slowly died down. So just wanted to relight the fire by checking out what others are doing in the trophy hunting world, especially in Malaysia.

I try to challenge myself by setting limitations like no easy platinums (Telltale games/story) unless it's a game I want to play, only focus on one region of games and if possible no boosting/glitches (no setting the clock ahead to get Calendar Man trophy in Arkham City but waiting one whole year and play on the dates required).

Nice to meet everyone, and hope to relight that fire to hunt.

My PSN ID is NixiN-7hieN, but I don't have anything recent to play with because of the PS4 Pro shortage. So I'm going back to finish off my pile of shame on the PS3 and Vita.

My proudest I guess is the platinum trophies for Olliolli 2 and Velocity 2x. The reason why is because the trophies for those two games were mainly skill based and did not involve any RnG. Also I'm an old-school arcade gamer so pure gameplay style suits me more.

Pretty happy to finally get these two off my list of games to platinum. Just stayed at home during New Year's break and finished them off.

Platinum Trophy No. 120 - Zero Time Dilemma [PS Vita]


Pretty easy platinum trophy, just need to pay attention to the story. Played it on a PSTV which was a bit annoying cause you need to use the virtual fingers to press or move stuff. But the story was fun and interesting. Not a long platinum.

Platinum Trophy No. 121 - Kingdom Hearts Final Mix [PS3]


Another somewhat easy platinum, got a bit boring on the 3rd time through because the difficulty trophies don't stack. The playthrough on the hardest difficulty gave me quite a challenge because I didn't want to grind for higher levels or weapons and I made a mistake of triggering the harder enemies for all worlds early so it made going through the colosseum without higher level magic or skills harder. Leaf Veil and Strike Raid are important and makes this mode much easier because both give temporary invulnerability.

Next target Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix in like... half a year because of work.

CNY break game... on the Vita so could play whenever I had time during traveling.

Platinum Trophy No. 122 - Adventures of Mana [PS Vita]


A remake of the Final Fantasy Adventure / Seiken Densetsu: Final Fantasy Gaiden game on the Gameboy. The main story and gameplay is simple, main challenge is navigating the map from the vague directions given by the NPCs and changing weapons quickly through the clunky made for smartphone menu. The trophies are not difficult to get, but half of them require either grinding or making a list of items and equipment as they are missable. Weird bug that the timer keeps going even when the Vita is put to sleep, but other than that it's a classic RPG that is still fun to play.

Can also be played on the PSTV, Dragon Quest Builders and World of Final Fantasy are not compatible on the PSTV but this game is.

This game is a remake of Final Fantasy Adventure on the original Gameboy.

It took me about... 30 hours? The game still counts the time even when you put it into sleep mode. The game is actually quite short like, 15 - 20 hours if you know what to do. It took me about 10 hours longer because I missed a few of the missable items because you need to grind for them and they are only available at certain locations. Once you reached the "point of no return", you should have everything except the last weapon and maybe one or two armor pieces that you need to grind. There's a trophy for maxing out your levels, don't make the same mistake I made which is to balance out the classes. Just choose warrior and mage for +2 ATK and MND. Level grinding occurs just two screens before the final boss. So no need to worry too much until the end once you get the final weapon.

Platinum Trophy No. 123 - Persona 4 Dancing All Night [PS Vita]


Est. time of completion: 13-15 hours (can be shorter if you fast read the story mode)

Easy platinum trophy, short but enjoyable story mode and you can just play through Free Mode on easy difficulty with the exception of a few songs that must be done on hard. There's an item setting that allow you to shorten the grind for money which cuts down the grind from hours to just less than half an hour. You could still do it the long way but since it's a clever loophole to how the game calculates it's rewards. I think it's fine to take advantage of it if you're just going for the trophies.

However, I need to emphasize, it's easy... yes. But I felt the input lag and the game recognizing my inputs were not accurate most of the time. Even with all the patches and darkening the screen to make it easier to see the inputs. Never felt truly confident that I could get the "King Crazy" rating unless I memorized the song really well and played on the easier difficulties. That's my only challenge.

I wish I had a PS4 and time to play an JRPG.

Lol, if only more games allowed that. Especially games that have dead multiplayer or requires you to beat the game like 3 times because the difficulty trophies don't stack.
