What game have you recently beaten?

[FlavaFlave]

Is it an easily doable platinum then? I imagined it would be either long, tedious, boring, or something?

It is, it's just very time consuming. Some of the loot you need for the final item crafting quest is so tedious it's annoying. I'm talking not only super rare drop items that you need like 5 of, but also rare as hell enemies that are hard to come by. The other daunting one is collecting 300 (maybe 250) types of monsters, but that's actually fun since it involves morphing monsters and seeing what they can all do.

Well, you're looking at 85+ hours. I'm 80 hours in and still having fun though.

I stopped playing around the 70+ hour mark, with the intentions of picking it back up again soon. I got basically all the trophies minus the two mentioned above, and I think there's a few involving the casino (i just never spent any time there).

And yeah, it's totally old school JRPG - I miss those games.

Sounds interesting. I was kind of tempted to pick it up because GAME were selling it off for £22.99 new.

Not sure if it's my kind of game. And I haven't played an RPG for like 8 years?

Playing it was like going back in time.

So I get the feeling that Xenoblade Chronicles is going to take some doing for full completion.

Good price.

Based on what you usually play it's probably not your thing though.

The question you need to ask yourself is, what was the last RPG you played and did you really like it? If it's any FF game pre-X, or even older stuff like Chrono Cross, Xenogears or Wild Arms (and you liked these games), then you need to pick it up. It's a straight up, no bullshit JRPG.

You can pick up those casino trophies in about 10 minutes if you play clever. I cant remember the name of the game to play though.

Call of Juarez: Gunslinger.

Really enjoyed it.

[Pickles]

Is it Platoon?

Yes, yes it was

[Gypsy]

Albert Odyssey. Fun game, really short. You'd very likely be disappointed if you pay the going rate for a CIB copy and aren't wanting to collect Saturn on some level.

[Zaladane]

XCOM


Ironman mode on Classic.

Now for impossible..

[Tassadar]

Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War, I almost always pay attention to the campaign in games but I skipped it in this one. I haven't tried a new RTS in a while so it was a fun but my god did the game handle in a very clunky way.

[deadlegion]

Played through DI: Riptide once (imported my Purna DI character), didn't enjoy it as much as the first game.

[Gare]

Well I finally finished Kara no Shoujo 2.

Ugghhhhh. T__T

Game was great and all, but that ending. God.

[Gypsy]

Japan + endings =

[Gare]

Oh I forgot, I also beat RE6. I thoroughly enjoyed it! Like, all of it. Yes, even the broness of the Chris campaign. Shed a manly tear for Piers, too.

(Well, not really, but you get my point.)

Japan + endings =

Well, the company that made this game likes to pull shit like this. Fucking trolls.

It was a good ending, but it also left a gaping hole where my heart used to be.

[Raype]

Well I finally finished Kara no Shoujo 2.

Does it pull the same shit as KnS1?

Because if so, I'm probably going to wait a bit longer before touching that one.

There's a limit to how much sadness and blueballing I can take in a year. And I've already exhausted most of my supply.
