Platinum Trophy #14 (Platinum Trophy) - I remember games before trophies. This game would have been SO enjoyable had I not had to replay it three times. I know. I know. There are games out there that require like more than ten, but I am not that hardcore. What really grinds my gears is that I had to play on an easier difficulty for one lousy SILVER trophy. I had to lose fights purposely so a prompt would pop-up asking me if I wanted to revert to easy. Now, that prompt could have been programmed to work on normal, hard and extra hard mode, couldn't it have? NOPE. Another playthrough on normal just for this one lousy trophy was required. Sigh. Collecting the trophies really distracted me from what was happening in the actual game. With a daunting list of items I had not finished, I became burnt out and I had to put the game away for what seemed like half of a year. I finished it recently, but I didn't really know what was going on anymore because the story has four main characters and there was a lot of information to forget. Next, I rushed through the game again on normal without watching any cutscenes. Once again... lost. So on my extra hard game, I didn't worry about any sidequests or trophies. I just played. What a beautiful game. It reminds me of how things used to be before trophy hunting. This time around at least I have the satisfaction of knowing I did all three playthroughs myself. I kind of cringe thinking I am wasting my life on platinum trophies, but gaming is a part of who I am and every time a platinum trophy pops up after hours of hard work, all that anger and negativity kind of melts away. The more hours invested in a game, the more meaningful the platinum is. Three playthroughs. Total bull. Great game. Happy to have all the Yakuza platinum trophies now. Please bring Kenzan to the US of A with trophies, SEGA.
