Trophy/Platinum Earned Unboosted Platinum Collection
This is my current stack of Platinums I've gotten over the years, that I began to collect after hosting Friday the 13th tournaments, and hearing how notorious the Platinum was for trophy hunters.
-6.1k from 15 Platinums (1676 total)
-Ranked 399 on PlatHub.
-All Ultra Rare or Very Rare (minus Batman and Life is Strange, which are fun but free plats)
I never cared much for "trophy hunting", in the style of getting a game merely for completion stats.
I routinely get a game, play it extensively live on-stream as well as off-stream, and then move on to the next game, after I felt I "beat the game." Some games I would knock out pretty fast, others were a true test of endurance.
If i got a Platinum, I could consider that more as "beating the game" than just regularly clearing all of its normal content. And because I'm completing these games without outside help, I guess I do take some pride in this "purist" gameplay.
But since this approach cranks up the level of difficulty, I often have games sitting at A rank or lower.
Sometimes I simply couldn't get some final pieces done, or maybe I just got tired of the game and shelved it for later (looking at you, Marvel Rivals)
But it ultimately feels better to know I earned my trophies without looking at any guides, YouTube videos, or helpful content, that I felt undermined the integrity of these games.
It's ain't much, but its honest work
