Vampyr - 100% Trophies Playthrough in 4.5 Hours
10A 100% playthrough of Vampyr, a western RPG where you control a British surgeon turned vampire and try to solve the mystery of an epidemic in London.
The trophies involve collecting every important collectible and weapon in the game, and doing a playthrough where you don't kill any important NPCs. However, most NPCs hold exclusive weapons, which requires them to be killed to acquire.
The game autosaves too, so you'll need the ability to backup your saves if you want to 100% in one playthrough. Backup your save before the final boss and get the No NPC Kills playthrough done first, then reload the backup save and start killing (embracing) NPCs for the weapons.
The No NPC Kills playthrough can't be acquired on the easiest difficulty, so you'll need to play on at least Normal or higher for a one playthrough plat. This makes enemies a lot tankier and take much longer to kill than on the easiest difficulty. It can get rather hectic dealing with several enemies at once considering how slow attacks typically come out.
Fortunately, there's an invincibility bug that can be exploited to make the playthrough much easier. Simply pause and quit to main menu the moment you die, and you'll hopefully be invincible to everything except 'cutscene attacks', which still need to be avoided at all costs. Doing this glitch will lock out most of your abilities like locking on and regaining blood, but it's a fair trade off to avoid having to dodge 90% of attacks.
This video goes through the entire game in one playthrough, making backup saves where appropriate, and getting collectibles when it's most convenient to do so.
