Opinion on trophies/achievements?
Imo, I think they're atrocious and distract the player from the game in favour of collecting some bullcrap stamps without any real value.

They don't distract at all. Imo all their worth is in replay ability, who gives a shit on the first playthrough.

>game has multiplayer achievements
>multiplayer is empty

That's not entirely true - some games require you to perform dumb actions that you wouldn't otherwise (i.e. Peace Walker)

this guy gets it. first playthrough should always be done with trophies disabled even.

Okay, but what is the purpose of trophies in that case?

whats Sup Forums's latest plat?

Uncharted 4. It's also the platinum that made me quit trophy hunting in general

Publishers like trophies because it's an easy way to track progress in games, especially when most of the trophies are the boring ones you get from just playing the game normally

>ace combat requires 50 hours of online play for a trophy
FUCK
