† The Joker Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Just wanted to see what people think of online trophies and achievements in games. Personally, I have mixed feelings about them. I'm happy to unlock them, but I hate it when they have really long requirements. I spent more time trying to get the online trophies on Resident Evil 5 than I did on getting the Platinum on Final Fantasy Xiii! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manifesto Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 I'm not really interested in them for some reason, I never try to unlock any trophies :L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koby Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 I enjoy getting them but I don't go out of my way to achieve them and it's kind of sad when you beat a game and realize you only got like 5 trophies in a 30 trophy game since the rest involve spending lots of time doing stupid stuff on the side.

† The Joker Posted January 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 exactly my point! I hate trophies that have really stupid requirements. I prefer offline because you can take your time to get them, rather than spending the best part of a day trying to get one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hōtarō Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 I don't mind them. If I beat the game and want to go get the achievements that I didn't get, I'll go back and get them for something to do. Not getting them is like buying a happy meal and only eating the fries. To me, anyway.The only thing I hate is when people try and brag that they got something that was hard. Take the WoW community for example. People brag about getting the Heroic Lich King 25 kill. That's the only thing I don't like. Mentioning it off-hand is completely different, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake2142 Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 i love all achievements/trophies xD... ok that might be a lie, i do hate going for some that are just stupid and annoying. i understand them making them have long requirements because there trying to get you to play there game longer. an exp i have is for Naruto Ninja Storm 2, im going for the all titles achievement on xbox & i have to play as each character 30times for one title each. now ok i can deal with that, plus i can just put in a seconded player & have him be the same guy and only have to fight 15 times. another title is wining 50ranked matchs, now ok i can still deal with that but i hate that one the most because i suck (kinda) at playing ranked almost every one lags. there's more but ill leave it at that lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zanbuki Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 I don't mind them much. It's nice to just be playing and see "Trophy Unlocked!" up in the corner, but I don't go out of my way to find them. Annoys me both when people brag about them, and when people say "oh noes achievements are killing gamings noes!!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragnawind Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 I don't really mind them. Whenever I feel bored or something after beating a game with trophies, I go and try to get them. Some games, like RE5, have some difficult trophies, but the game, to me, is worth playing multiple times, just to get the trophies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake2142 Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 oh yea guys on another note, getting trophies for something that is just rly hard to do like RE5's Lead Aspirin trophy/achievement where u have to shoot a cretin guy in the head while he is jumping at you, just feels good after u finally mange to line him up and nail him with a shot. for hard stuff like that it just feels nice to get it you know? also i had to do that twice since i played RE5 on both xbox and ps3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shunsuke Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 If their possible like the ones for COD 3 reach this level online and such I don't mind them but if their like Lost Planet 2's online crap I hate them. Im not going to play a game for 200+ hours online just to try and get everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't know it was a trophy until it popped up xD.But yeah, I know what you mean, hard trophies are rewarding, as long as they don't have really stupid requirements. Personally, the greatest 'Hard' trophy I've unlocked has got to be the 'Perfect Crime' trophy on Heavy Rain. So many requirements, and each had to be so damn precise!

† The Joker Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 I did the perfect crime run after my first run-through, and was fortunate all the other trophies with the exception of "unlock all endings". I have to admit, using a guide did help... just wish it could've made Kamikazi easier - that deserved to be a silver trophy at least!
