I feel I have to clarify before the main post, but I do like earning Platinum trophies. These thoughts are applicable to games as a whole. I like to get the Platinum trophy for a game because I know that is monitored for future developments and I like to know that the developers can see how much I've enjoyed their game.
I'm playing Yakuza Kiwami 2 at the moment and even with the guide I am getting my ass kicked on Legendary Mode. I've done as much as I can but I have rheumatoid arthritis and sometimes my hands swell so much that my reflexes know what I need to do but physically I cant keep up. It's what made me stop playing guitar as much as my whole arms ache from finger tips to above my shoulders in no time and if they swell up I just can't move as quickly as I need too.
This is something I have major kudos for Days Gone, they didn't ask you to complete everything on the absolute hardest difficulty, nor did they expect you to complete everything to 100% standard but as long as you could say you persisted with the game and experienced most everything it had to offer competently without necessitating a 100% completion for each avenue, you could get the Platinum. Same for Ghost of Tsushima.
I gave up with games like Killzone that have silly online trophies that are hard to get for players like me. Nier Automata was fantastic because they gave you an opportunity to unlock trophies you really struggled with without cheating.
I'm just looking at the Mah Jong, gambling, batting and golfing games like smdh. I'm going to struggle completing the game on this difficulty, never mind doing the mini games that I struggle with. Guides only help so much but as I've found with Mah Jong, there are no comprehensive guides that really help you learn. The game offers limited tutoring.
At the end of the day, I'll have been playing this game since well before Christmas and I'll be looking at the trophy list on the dashboard like two trophies... I just need two trophies...
