I was platinuming every FF game, then I arrive at FF9 and I said, "well this is where the streak ends"
Set up a remote play on a laptop and set up a routine to autopress the button, I won't bother doing this but my brother did for his shiny plat!
Yeah me too, jump rope can be done like that too, only hard part is leaving the game open for a day and not touching the PlayStation
@@jbrooker1989Normally I’m against using third party tools for this, but the jump rope trophy honestly deserves to be cheated.
Omg, yes. That jump rope minigame was horrible. @@muffetmissulena6540
@@Drakevid I could never get to 100 even in that minigame. I just didn't bother with trophies for that game.
Chocobo racing in ff x gave me a mental breakdown and now I will never be the same.
Weird they were easy to get. Took an hour to get the race done. Lightning dodging was a bit harder.
As soon as I saw you had to dodge lightning in FF10, I didn't even bother with platinum. I can't even dodge 3 in a row. Who has the patience/focus to do 200??? Props to whoever those folks are
And then there's the 1000 jump rope minigame in ff9 😆 🤣 😂
The lightning dodging one is actually not as bad as it sounds (i got it on the 2nd try). I found the chocobo racing and that butterfly minigame to be the ones that really made this platinum hard
There's a place that you can cheese it a little by "forcing" the lightning to strike so its easy to predict.
I'd rather platinum X twice over than IX once, I'd say IX is insane
I can do it easily on the ps2 but the remasters are different, can barely get 10
FF7 Rebirth needs a new tier: SE Hates Us
Just beat bonds of friendship last night, so freaking hard
@@BHPOfficialTo be a hero is no joke either.
@@SteveT-v6nAfter playing BoF enough and understanding the mechanics of bosses I was able to beat To Be a Hero first try. It wasn’t really all that bad as you have the prior knowledge of how most bosses worked from BoF.
@pphead4312 Fair enough. After 10s of attempts on Bonds, I got too comfortable using zack with cloud. Yes, most of it only used cloud, but when I needed to use sephy....I could not use him for the life of me. That was my shortfall. But, yes... it was much easier and quicker than Bonds of gayshit.
I got the platinum in 188 hours. I care for my nan full time so had bags of time on my hands. Platinumed 2 months after release. Cactuar crush with Aerith is horrible, Choco glide 3 is torture and the final battle arena is tough as nuts. But its possible! Good luck
I was never into final fantasy growing up as a kid, but I recently got the plat for 16, which then prompted me to try the 7 remake and I've had an absolute blast. Will definitely be getting more plats from the series!
I can't get the platinum for 16. That Garuda combo that you have to do mid air won't trigger no matter if I do it correctly or not. I also visited every place on the map and that didn't trigger for some reason either. After that, I was like screw it.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 10-2, 12, 13, 15, Crisis Core, WoFF, Theatrhythm and 7 Remake for me have been platted.
9 can suck a fuck.
I can now add Type 0 to this
Ooh I love the format of this one! I’d absolutely love to see the guides for each game - trophies are so addictive.
I'm still waiting on that 13 trilogy re-release. Mark my words, if they do that I'll plat all 3 of them!
Still got my PS4 with NT set up. You know I like that game and have like 300 hrs in it. So I wouldn't mind helping you with the trophies, even if I'm not planning on getting them myself.
I wanna platinum FFXIII but the treasure hunting trophy sounds miserable. I have the platinum for Lightning Returns and loved that one. But XIII might be one I skip
Treasure Hunter is not that bad in comparison of other trophies. I don't about the PR version but FF4 3D has the most stupid trophies in existence.
With guides and routes that made the grinding much less tedious as it was before, Treasure Hunter is easier and less time consuming than it was before.
I platted all 3 and I think LR was the most enjoyable.
@@groudonvert7286if you think 4ds is bad play after years and try to 100% that. Basically just think of farming pink tails without sirens then do it several times over xD
@@snuggie1849 I never played After Years, so I'll take your word ahah
Loved the video. Was never a trophy hunter but love watching people trophy hunt. Its always so interesting.
Since the 13 trilogy is my favorite i was so adamant about getting all 3 platinums on both PS3 and Steam :D now im working on NT cause i just got 15s base platinum.
Type 0 is actually super easy and can speedrun it in 8 hours if you skip cutscenes, And as someone who also did Dissida NT it's not too bad but it is a huge grind but i was thinking of doing the free version at as well so if you want a grind partner i wouldn't mind
genuinely think chocobo dungeon is the hardest platinum, having to not only beat a 500 floor dungeon but beat it multiple times because you need a drop from the final boss that is an rng drop is what made me give up on it for awhile at least.
You could well be right....
For getting the Joker’s Death achievement on FFVI you can actually use the pause buffering technique to get triple 7’s.
It is very difficult and nowhere near as easy as the SNES version, but I completed FFVI a couple of weeks ago and used this method.
Un-pausing with A or Cross, and re-pausing with start lets you move frame perfectly once you get used to it. Each slot has a different set of symbols and moves at different speeds. I can’t remember the exact places to unpause but I basically went through each slot, wrote down all the symbols and experimented with the best time to stop at. Once I had a plan I just used pause buffering to get to the right part of the slot, then un-paused and stopped the slots.
It took me about an hour or so from start to finish, including writing everything down. Definitely a bit of a pain but it was a lot better than just waiting for the RNG to give me a good result.
Great video btw!
I currently have plats for 7R, 7CCR, X, X-2, XII:TZA, XIII, XIII-2, LR, XV, XVI, Type-0, TFBL, and working on the one for SoP:FFO. Might someday go back to I-IX.
WoFF is one I quit on because the mini-games are SOOOOOOO bad, on top of the extreme tedium.
X, XIII and XVI were ones where the platinum grind negatively affected my enjoyment of the game because of the tedium. X-2 Final Mission maybe a little as well.
7R, XIII-2 and XII:TZA I'd say improved my enjoyment of them. 7R Hard Mode and XII:TZA Trials were challenging yet fun. XIII-2's endings are all interesting and worth seeing.
dodging 200 lightning bolts isn't too difficult once if you know where the sweet spot on the map to trigger a guaranteed lightning strike is.
The Chocobo racing minigame however is downright just designed wrong. Had me up till 3:00AM with those jank ass hitboxes, RNG, and camera angle transitions that mess up your directional inputs. Whoever designed that needs to be banished to tend to the fields on the moons of Jupiter.
Nice video! I would like a guide/experience telling of platinum all the main FF games :D
Wait. Sephiroth on hard mode in FF7 Remake is simple and easy? Im being gaslighted over here.
Little correction to the Treasure Hunter from XIII.
You don't have to have all of the items in your inventory at once, when you are sure you have upgraded an item to its final form and don't need it you can sell it. As long as you have held every single unique weapon and accessory in your inventory at some point on your playthrough it's enough. (There are some really handy checklists out there for tracking this). Also the trophy only requires weapons and accessories, other items are not needed.
And it's only missable if you go selling your one time items before upgrading them (if my memory serves me), as long as you upgrade everything before selling them it shouldn't be missable.
Thats great to hear, thank you for the clarification!
To add a bit, you can sell everything in the game without problem, every weapons can be purchased in shops, most equipments can be bought in shops or are unique items found in unmissable chests or mission rewards.
You can sell everything BUT the Elemental Charms. If you sold the Elemental rings, dismantling the Elemental Charms will give you the basic Rings (only equipments you have to upgrade that can't be bought in any shop).
For the other trophies, not getting 5 stars immediately can be extremely tedious to do again, because the early missions have tight objectiv battle time (it's based on yhow advanced you are in Crystarium and Equipments upgrade), making them much harder to 5 stars in post-game.
The Turtle success is not about Adamantoise, who are indeed weak to death, but about Long Gui, one of 13's Superbosses. This turtle is immune to Death.
And if I can recommend a guide for Plat 13, I recommend to follow the plat% speedrun guide. One of the reason being the speedrunners route the run so you Basically finish all tedious trophies at the same time (Treasure Hunter and the Crystarium).
For getting the Joker’s Death achievement on FFVI you can actually use the pause buffering technique to get triple 7’s.
It is very difficult and nowhere near as easy as the SNES version, but I completed FFVI a couple of weeks ago and used this method.

nice vid, agree with your list! I am personally rly proud of my regular ffxiv ps4 & 5 platin ^^ just took me 3000h ...
Anyone that used remote play for FFIX cheated the jump rope trophy.
Any thoughts on Rebirth so far?
Been slowly working through the plat over the past month and im about half way through, so far id say its rather easy and pretty fun
Great video! I'll probably try for the Pixel Remakes first, thanks for the heads up!
“no one forgets”
adhd would like a word
i was so pissed i missed the Trine Enemy skill in FF7 blocking materia overlord
Generally, I really like it when RPG games have no missible items or decisions. That’s why I really like the chapter system from Remake/Rebirth.
Playing a 30-40 hour RPG only to find you’ve missed something and if you want to get a platinum you need to spend another 20 hours just to get it is a total pain.
Not too long ago I played Trails in the Sky FC on Steam and wanted to get all the achievements without looking anything up. I ended up missing one item I needed and since the game doesn’t let you go back and revisit old towns I had to replay almost the full game again in order to get it.
In general I don’t really like guides as I like to explore the game myself, but after that I tend to use a missables guide just so I make sure I don’t miss out on something important.
thank you for making this video 🙏
i'm trying to do my own plat journey of the final fantasy games
As someone who is trying to complete both of the FF14 trophy lists I completely agree with your rating of "ULTIMA" for both lists. It is a great game and I'd recommend it to anyone who loves MMOs and FF. Especially since they extended the free trial to Stormblood.
While it is easy to get most of the PS4 trophies it takes some time to get through the story of ARR (if you're not skipping cutscenes) and has two trophies that make it such a huge grind:
- "An Adventurer's Life" for completing 1000 levequests. The trophy takes almost 6 months due to the limited amount of allowances you need to start the quests.
- "Destiny's" for completing 1000 FATEs. Fates aren't difficult but doing 1000 of them is just really time consuming and in my opinion really boring. It's the last trophy I need on PS4 and I'm currently only at 464.
The PS5 platinum trophy is much more time consuming. It requires the completion of the main story up to the end of the post Shadowbringer quests which alone takes a few hundred hours. For some reason they decided to raise the requirement to 3000 FATEs and added trophies for crafting 5000 (I'm currently at 300) and gathering 8000 collectables (currently at 603). It doesn't make the platinum hard or fun just mind numbingly tedious.
I have earned 127 out of 159 trophies and wouldn't recommend going for the 100% of the PS5 list to anyone who values their time and sanity 😆. Some trophies are really grindy (344 triple triad cards, island sanctuary, catch 1460 unique fish, leveling all characters in the trust system to 90 etc.), some are luck based (reaching the end of both treasure map dungeons) and some are really difficult (savage raids, criterion dungeons, clearing all 3 deep dungeons solo etc).
Ultimate raids are luckily not a part of the trophy list yet but trophies based on ultimate don't seem unlikely anymore since they added trophies for comleting the deep dungeons solo.
Sorry for the long comment. I'm just really passionate about FF14 and trophy hunting 😅
Never apologise for a long comment, I'm glad you enjoyed the video enough to speak up so much on the subject!
I'm super close to the PS5 one, I've got all the collectibles, it's just the FATEs left to go now, and I haven't loaded it up on PS4 in quite a while, so I'll have to see if they'll retroactively pop for me, as I know I've done the leves (thank you Coffee Biscuits back in ShB!), but that was what stopped me with PS5!
Wake up babe, new Josephyr just dropped!
Awww, too sweet x
I really hope Rebirth made the ultima tier, that one was punishing.
Rebirth is definitely Ultima tier. That shit is brutally difficult
i just knew right away x and x-2 were going to be ultima tier, i know from first and second hand experience
i platinum'd FFX, and my god the freaking grind you have to sibject yourself to, MAKE SURE you pick expert sphere grid for easier time, cuz if memory serves expert only have around 750 nodes you have to fill in, whereas standard has over 800, and you have to do it for all 7 chars (thank god for tonberry)
I think I'd originally planned to get every FF Plat before 7 Remake came out, but ended up not bothering as WOFF and XIV would have been a part of that. Certainly a bunch more out now as well!
Agreed on X & X-2, I think the only reason I was even able to manage those was because I didn't have a full time job at the time lol.
I don't think I agree on Type-0 though, it's been years since I played it but I recall it being quite easy and very quick. One thing to note on that is that the Plat doesn't actually require you to complete anywhere near as much content as the game actually has. I looked up some of the other content and yeah, if you did need to fully complete everything in that game it'd be a nightmare.
I haven't actually played an FF in a while, but man if they do finally drop XIII remasters I'd be jumping on that before anything else. I enjoyed every moment of getting all 3 of those plattys.
X was also my favorite.... It was also my first platinum on PSN ever. I don't think its as hard as it really is "time consuming" but i know that game front to back. Awesome video!
Is it still possible to do dissidia nt?
I know this isn't in scope - if you want beyond ultima level - try and get every achievement in FFXIV
Ohhhhhh yus
I did the 10,000 kills in FF9 at Gizamaluke's Grotto since there is a higher chance of getting 4 enemies in 1 fight. I did this with the high speed and max damage manually. It took me roughly 12-13 hours of straight grinding. Only platinums I’m missing from the main series is 12, 13, 13-2, Lightning Returns and 14. I don’t really plan on doing the spin offs or I think 14 either.
You are not expected to do the Ultimates in FFXIV, that will probably be trophies for a future expansion. :)
Im currently trying to platinum 10. Ive done 6, 7, 8, 7Remake and Rebirth so far.
Great video! I would love to see you do platinum guides on these games 😊
Thats a lot to ask, i doubt he would want to go over all om them again, you probably have to make those videos while going for the plat at that time, or just after you finish it
If people felt it was helpful, I replay these games all the time, and would happily put the research into it :)
@@Joesephyr I would probably be burned out after these very hard plats xD, but more power to you if you would do it, and you are a mega fan of the series ofcourse
@@Joesephyryes please make a guide most of them if possible
I thought it'd be a good idea to try for all the mainline FF plats since I had a few already. I quit 9 due to the trophy where you need to win a "guess the cup" minigame a bunch of times in a row. As far as I know I can't cheat that one like the jump rope trophy.
I may try again, since I am getting close to finishing 14s plat and only have easy ones left (aside from 9) when that's finally done.
Type-0 was such a fun and easy to do Platinum. It only took me 1 and a half playthroughs to platinum. Please check it out for those who haven't played it. It's so fun.
the ps5 trophies for 14 are actually insane there's so much stuff on there that most people wont even get close to during normal gameplay
its absurd just how time consuming it is and how out of your way you have to go for it, i have almost 6000 hours on 14 and i wouldnt have the platinum if i played it on ps5
What is the guitar theme that plays through this? Is this Vincent’s theme. Ugh. Now I have to google it. But HOW?
I was on a bit of a platnum journey and got 7, 8, 9, and 10. Agree with your rankings on those. 9 was a nightmare and I put 150 hours on my playthrough of 10. Started X-2, but I think I had burnt myself out by then. Maybe I'll go back and finish it one day.
I'm at 14 FF platinums at the moment. Many more I'd like to get. Slowly chipping away on XIV (PS5), and up to 3 on the pixel remasters. Cheers for the tip of speeding up time makes the IX speedrun easier. Haven't got to that yet but it's less intimidating knowing that's an option.
In 15 I never camped out and always went to a place for more exp. Which meant at the end I had to just go out kill some mobs then make camp to increase the camping skill. Don't be like me, the extra xp really isn't worth the extra time. Lol
Josephyr: "Final Fantasy IX is my favorite Final Fantasy."
Me: Subscribe
But really I do like your tier list. I like to hunt trophies too but that Jump rope minigame...
Biggest question.....did u get the jump rope trophy legit or did u use remote play trick?
Don't tempt me, because I know I will try this, and I know 9 and 10 will be where I learn how stubborn I am or where my breaking point is
I 100% agree with the ffx chocobo racing, I've never had a hard time with it, just tedious.
Miscounting lightning strikes however....
I followed a damn guide for X-2s story trophy and still had to start a new game cause I somehow got 99%.
OG FF7 ; the movers only award AP, up to 7200 in triple growth weapons.
The magic pots award up to 8k, more with exp plus.
I’ve never earned a Platinum Trophy, I think the closest I got was in Tekken 5 or 6, the only thing I was missing was beating some sort of optional giant robot thing on a hard difficulty. I’ve only recently started caring about the achievements, or at least checking for them. They’re so baked into the landscape of gaming that even “gamified” stuff has achievements like computers and certain work environments.
I finally started the FF14 trial by the way, I’m already 70 with my black mage after like 3 weeks. It’s more addicting than morphine and speed.
2:00, ooh I do remember agonizing over missing some chests in the FF Origins version for 2. Some are in fact missable. X-2 has gotta be HARD, I remember my sister and I spending hours upon hours on just the various side quests alone WITHOUT trophies.
My first plat trophy was tales of arise. Once I did that I felt the need to get more play trophies it was weird lol
FF9 is also my favorite FF entry (aside from FFT), but during the era when trophies didn't even exist, as a completionist myself I couldn't be bothered with obtaining Excalibur II & that atrocious jumping rope mingame.
An FFT enjoyer is a friend of mine! Just need that remaster to happen so we can plat that, right?!
Currently being snnoyed by crisis core reunion. Nothing hsrd about it but 300 missions is absolutely annoying
Thank you for this video
Please make the guide that would be amazing
FF9 should have a tier of its own called “Fuck you Squaresoft”
FF VII R wasn't hard but... the dresses... F*CK that was SO ANNOYING TO DO
dude shouts out fellow dissidia NT enjoyer. i’d love to help you plat that if that’s still a goal
Rebirth’s plat does ask a lot of you, but the difficulty/time requirement is overhyped. I see alotta people saying it takes like 200 hours. Maybe, if you don’t have thumbs. I got the plat a couple weeks ago and my final time was 124 hours (which is still a lot don’t get me wrong). I’m not a super gamer or anything either. I got lost, stuck on certain parts in hard mode, I died on the challenges quite a bit, etc. It’s difficult, but it’s not THAT difficult. I definitely have done much harder plats.
I actually think Type-0 should be moderate to easy since the time constraints become a non-issue on subsequent play-thrus.
Are you me? I completely agree with your list, and I would even put FF13’s trophy higher up because I had to grind turtles for traps for dozens of hours. Totally agreed that Crisis Core and WoFF are weaker entries. I am also working on Dissidia, but unfortunately on Steam :( Good luck!
Good luck to you too! Nice to meet a fellow hunter!
Currently working on this goal myself in order of original release, so I’ve only just finish IV cause I’m platinum’ing other games too like assassin’s creed. Personally I plan to do all trophies like XIV’s stuff.
It's a fun journey, and a long one too! Good luck!
I platinum FFIX not too long ago... I used remote play and wrote a script for inputs to get both 10,000 kills and do the jump rope.
Also im doing the 10000 enemies on 9 manually. I scripted the jumprope so i felt i needed to lol
The dodge 200 lightning strikes in FF X is by far the hardest thing in the whole game. And in FF IX you have to jump the rope 1000 times.. everything else is manageable, but these 2.. damn
So... I have FFX, FFXII, FFXV, FFXVI, Type-0, and WoFF done. Very close to FFVIIR, and FFXIV but I just need to find the time and motivation to sit down and do it. FFX-2.... I don't know how I missed something on chapter 3. I used a guide, read back over it, but no. Kept me from getting one of the break limit gear items and killed the motivation to continue. Maybe one day. I'm surprised to see you rank FFX so high; I find it more of a time commitment than a difficulty skill check.
FF7 made me quit my platinum hunt because I failed the date with Barrett and didn't want to restart. Glad I stopped early because of FF9 jump rope and everything FF10
I did the 1,000 jumps on Jump Rope as a kid (as my mate LIED to me and claimed you would get a rare weapon, I didn’t forgive him for several weeks because of that). Anyway….i did that once and only once. When it came to the PS4 FF9, I was having none of it and used that remote play thing to just cheese it (as a majority of people did). There was no way I was going through that hell again lol….
I don’t know what they were thinking with 9’s trophy list. 10,000 enemies, every ATE (though I ended up seeing some scenes I’d never seen before so I liked that), all chests and the card game…I can manage all that. But the Jump Rope can die in a fire.
FFX’s I don’t find nearly as bad, though some parts of it are just tedious (and I made it worse for myself as I wanted 255 luck and 99,999 HP with everyone).
I still wish the Pixel Remasters had the GBA extra dungeons and content. I know a lot of people aren’t that fond of them, but I actually liked the extra parts of 5 and 6.
Edit: And absolutely agree with Crisis Core being boring to platinum.
I'm currently going through the mainline final fantasy games and get all the platinum trophies. Currently on FF X, getting the sphere grid maxed out right now.
I’m at 15 Platinums out of my 21 goal total. I count all the core numbered games and their sequels with Crisis Core being my biggest stretch to make the list. I’m on FF14 right which I deemed impossible but I’m currently cheesing it. Good luck to anyone on this journey.
Ive got 1-8, 16, theatrhythm, stranger of paradise, and crisis core reunion. So like all of the easy ones...
Nothing wrong with that, Platinums are still hard work even at the easier end! Should be very proud! X
i would trophy boost with you for Dissidia NT
FFXIII was my very first platinum ever
Glad to see my prediction was right. (I predicted FF9 would be in the hardest tier). Absolutely brutal game to platinum.
The difference between the PS4 and PS5 FFXIV platinums is crazy.
I've got the PS4 platinum and found it a nice challenge, but the grinds required to get the PS5 plat is so much more. The trophies for 3000 fates and 8000 gathering collectibles are probably the biggest walls for me. Slowly getting there with fates as I always need them for something else, but gathering collectibles is a mamoth task; I don't think I'm even near close to those.
I did ff X as my first ff game and first 100%. It was a grind but it was a good time. Thank god Yojimbo was there to OS some battles lol
9: jump rope
10: Chocobo Race
Screw. Those. Trophies.
Wow as someone who went back and got the FFX platinum a few years back I definitely didn’t feel like it was that difficult - just grindy. FFX-2 however 💀💀
I got the Platinum for FFXIV on PS3 while it existed. I can definitely say that is much easier than the PS4 and PS5 versions. Difficulty was up to the first Coil of Bahamut. The stress was just hoping your frame rate didn't drop to single digits during the fights.
I have platinumded FF 1-5 (working on 6 currently) 7, FFR, 9, 10, 13, 13-2, 13: LR, 15,16, and Worlds, Just need to fully lvl a character to 9 star in Final Bar Line and beat Minerva in FF7 Crisi Core. Plan to go through the ff games I am missing but with so many ff games out and releasing like rabbits, feels like a task I will be on til the day I die. I agree with your list for the most part but for ff9 I would personally put it at hard due to I used remote play and a script made by fans to get jump rope king.
"So, Kopla Kopp, why are you suing Joesephyr?"
"Because he insulted our intelligence with his tier list, kupo! His easiest trophy tier insults our skill, kupo! We are not stupid goblins, we are proud and brave Moogles never afraid to tackle any challenge, kupo!"
"Then that would mean that your friend stealing the booze from a merchant while you were questioning the future Warrior of Light does not constitute cowardice and weakness?"
"I scolded Kappa Ku for that, kupo! I swear, he's the black sheep of our clan!!!!"
(Reminded me of the GEICO Caveman commercials when they say GEICO is so easy a Caveman could do it. XD)
I play FFXIV on computer primarily but if I loaded up on the PS5 would I instantly get all the trophies from having the stuff completed on PC? Or would I have to play through everything again on the PS5?
FFX was actually pretty easy to platinum. The worst bit about it was grinding the sphere grid but it wasnt difficult once you levelled up the monster arena. Time consuming, yes. Difficult, no.
Rebirth's platinum is pretty rough.
I personally wouldn’t put FFX in the S tier of difficulty. It’s more of a grind than actually difficult. If you take into account that you’re going to obtain the ultimate weapons and the monster arena anyways as a standard play through then the rest is just grinding out the sphere grid.
I was actually able to platinum FF X not to long ago and it was literally my second platinum for a ff game ever
I'm genuinely surprised Dissidia NT servers are still up.
The FF games I’ve ‘platinumed’ are:
7 remake
7 rebirth (defo ultima this. Me and Zack are no longer friends)
7 crisis core reunion
10
10-2
13
13-2
13-LR
15
Everything but the FF7 related games. I played on my Xbox and was gonna redo them now that I’ve switched to PS5, and as much as ff is my favourite franchise. I dunno if I have it in me. To grind 10 and 10-2 again
Algorithm! I came awfully close to the ff13 trophy, then I realised I missed an item and I wasn't prepared to start a new playthrough :(
There's no missable equipments and weapons in 13. Everything can be done with the area accessible in endgame (chapter 11-13).
I am interested in helping with Dissidia that's what I'm working on right now I have all the characters A++
Hey i started working my way through this last year. i have the majority, currently working through ffx2 and ff14 (ps4), i would be down to help with NT as that is one i have been working on as well inbetween other titles. i got ff13-2 an dlightning retuns back in the day but will need to dig up my ps3 for original 13. great list, really enjoyed watching it. Chocobo dungeon being taken of ps+ also killed my run, i was maybe 40% through it lol
The Tierlist is pretty solid! There are just 1 or 2 title I would move up or down, but this is just a point of view.
I would put FF IX it into the hard Tier, because except that horrible rope jumping minigame, nothing is really challenging into it.
And I would put World of Final Fantasy and Type-O into moderate Tier. WWoF the only thing that really sucked was that board game to play to get the mirage and Type-0 basicly doesn't ask you to go through everything in the game. I really don't like that game and I was pretty happy when I got that Platinum, but I'm sure if they asked more to do, I would defintily out it into hard tier too.
Note for FFX-2: The game has to be done in 2 playthrough, just because there are mandatory missables with which side you want to go (with or against Neo-Yevon)
I'm very interessted into going to platinum Dissidia NT. I have to play it again, because I only played it when it got released and I haven't even finished the story mode.
i have been working on the FFX platinum but it has mentally drained me. I have the lightning and chocobo trophies but the time and effort to do Blitzball and the whole grid for each character is gonna be the end for me I think..
I never played NT (although I do own it) but I loved the original on PSP. I'd be down to try and grind some trophies.
In my experience I found Type-0 to be fairly easy, easier than FF7-R
I’ve been working on all the mainline games and their direct sequels, I have some of the easier ones, so far 7, 8, 12, and 16. was working on 9 when I got sidetracked with star ocean, but man platinuming is a big undertaking lol. I figured I’ve been playing these games my whole life, might as well go the extra mile for each one for that pretty little ribbon to tie off each chapter kinda thing
Thats pretty much how I felt about them, be nice to have a thing that I can show people :D
The 12 platinum is quite challenging. Especially the trials. Have to add, I NEVER used the cheat weapon Seitengrat. I have heard it makes 100% much easier.
Not sure if someone commented already but the first soldier and Yuna garbs are still available in the pc version of lightning returns at least not sure on ps3 or Xbox
I think the sphere grid one mostly comes naturally with a few hour grind at the end in which you can fill up the other character's grids with anything using Clear Spheres to wipe out stat spheres you cbf grinding for. Magic Defence spheres are the easiest to grind for this purpose. It's completely pointless though in gameplay terms, and it's still a 100 hour plat which was mostly for me monster RNG. It did teach me to never leave the hardest trophies to last when hunting other games; oftentimes I would do that with other games and it just becomes a psychological barrier more than anything.
With the lightning one there is a spot that consistently spawns it and once you get the rhythm down it just becomes a mental thing. I think it's better to just not count them and wait until you fuck up. I think I had over 100 more than needed but I didn't really care.
X-2 is horrible if like me you're trying for the perfect run in a single playthrough. I got about 30 hours in before realising I screwed up one of the camera bits and then saved. It's not TOO bad if you just go through NG+ a bit but me being me that destroyed all motivation I had to continue. It's not surprising that you still only hit 99% while following a guide; I was following a couple purely due to how inconsistent they were.
In my opinion though I feel like if I can plat X then anyone can. I'd probably put it at the second highest tier and I feel like the only game that belongs up there is IX. There's just no boosting your way out of the skipping rope.
I've done 1-3 of the Pixel Remasters so far and even without the boosts they're pretty easy (I did turn movement speed up though).
XII is my favourite game in the series yet I've still put off finishing the platinum trophy for years due to the bloody Quickening one which if you know how that works you'll understand. It was a lazy list in general as they mostly just transplanted the Sky Pirate's Den into the list to the point where they initially removed it from the game entirely (they patched it back later after fan outcry). The last few floors of Trial Mode are pretty bad too.
I've done XIII-2 twice on PS3 and Xbox. If there was a spot between Easy and Moderate I'd put it there. It's FAR easier than XIII is but there's still some annoyances like the slots and clocks.
Lightning Returns can be done on the easiest difficulty which completely removes the main gameplay gimmick as a factor. I would imagine if they did remaster them they'd add the costumes in as standard. I'm pretty sure I got that game later and I still got those costumes.
XV is one of the easiest in the series as you basically can't die in the main game. It's just a bit of a timesink but so are the other games aside from the pixel ones. 100% though is another matter entirely and is now impossible due to them migrating the Comrades servers to the standalone. The DLC superbosses are also quite hard as you can't just load up on healing items to beat them. I'd say Pocket Edition is harder due to a couple of contextual trophies.
Type-0 is also fairly easy. Like Persona the time limit is only moved along with certain actions and there's nothing that really makes you go out of your way. It's almost disappointing that it doesn't make you see everything the game has to offer as there's a lot of NG+ stuff in the game.
The worst part of Crisis Core is leveling up the DMW which is just leaving the game running on an easy encounter. I'm a fan of the game and in terms of a remaster/remake it's one of the best/most faithful I've played but the missions can get tedious and a lot of them will just be done at the final save point.
World of Final Fantasy is pretty tedious, especially seeing as they locked the treasure chest tracker behind DLC and didn't add trophies to DLC when they did for the Xbox version.
