It's all about da points. I really have a problem.
I abandoned the quest for Platinum due to the whole "collect every item" thing.
I made it all the way to the end, five starred every mission (and the last boss), and did pretty much everything in the game with base level weapons/accessories. I didn't level anything, and, really, I didn't need to.
Until you face the Gui or LongGui, who have so much health/damage that beating them without upgraded gear is nearly impossible. It just struck me as such a cheap shot that it killed all interest in the game. I'm not going to tack another hundred hours of nothing but grind to this game. It's not worth it. The upgrade system in this game is abysmal. It's poorly designed, atrociously implemented, and almost completely unnecessary. Heck, the game itself punishes you for using the upgrade system.
I just really, really don't see why it is worth it, and coming from someone as obsessively completionist as me, that is saying a lot.
What filter? I am confused? :(Quote:

I had him down within 6 minutes using this tactic, also helpful is that once you have the achievement you can reload you.r save and still have you.r Elixers for the Vercingetorix fight.Quote:

OOC: I dislike the you.r filter, its annoying.

What are the requirements for a Platinum Trophy? I don't collect achievements or trophies in games on Playstation 3.
I think you just have to get all of the other trophies, and then it's like, hey you did it!
Got it in oneQuote:

However it'll only be another handful of hours (I'm doing it in a consistent but less efficient manner) and then I'll have everything ticked off. I've been watching anime while repeating the A Potent Sting mission (23 or 24 or something) :p
Good luck. Hope you get it soon. :cactuar::cactuar:Quote:
