I can only rarely put in the effort to get all the trophies in a game- because of that, I respect the people who do it often very greatly.

i've never tried to actually get an achievement. i have been recently with some of the paradox ones because they are cool goals but that's it.

I like it when achievements give you in game perks/rewards

Some of the Starpoint Gemini 2 achievements give stat bonuses and they carry over to new games. Kind of handy if the save gets corrupted.

AC 2 just ruined collectibles for me, for like three months. Black Flag made that part of the game a lot better, as it did with every other part of the Assassin's Creed experience.

mega satan is a weird fight. he's trivialized entirely by trinity shield but it seems like he mainly exists to combat damage racing

he was pretty easy. the more I play boi the more I can't understand people who get massive losing streaks. rebirth in particular its easy to just go off the rails and steamroll before you even get to catacombs.

advice i have not seen on the internet: pincer blades can skip the slicing parts of the monsoon fight but it is dangerous. he may go into purple mode while really close and do his tornado dodge attack thing.

the best way to start sundowner's fight, or any fight in a platinum game i think, is to charge his scissors until he's about to ram you and let go at just the right time and you get enough invincibility to completely ignore his damage and it does huge damage to him

in the Sam dlc, senator has this one attack where he homes into you and it turns into a grab. how the gently caress do you even avoid that move

There's a cool glitch to guarantee an S-Rank No-Hit against Monsoon but if you use it you are a bad person.
