Do you care? Do you aim for platinums? Is it part of the experience for you? Or do you not give a fuck
I just completed the plat for Forza Horizon 5 and I feel good. Itās not an essential part of gaming for me but if Iām enjoying a game and still playing after Iāve finished the story, I do tend to try for it so thereās something new to aim for.
Iāve also got plats in Balatro, Rocket League, Spiderman, Fall Guys, a few Far Crys, FFVIIā¦ 18 in total. Balatro is the only one that I feel some actual achievement for, cos fuck me it was hard.
nah I donāt care about that, though I do have a spreadsheet that I fill in when I finish a game, itās nice, I enjoy completing games but I prefer to do it on my terms, sometimes do nearly everything sometimes just mainline

Depends if thereās a fun achievement to do tbh. I aināt doing the whole get em all thing tho.
Some games like paradox games have the achievements tied in to fun challenges. Like, I got one called āBrexitā for causing the breakup of the UK as communist Iceland in Hearts of Iron IV. That was good.

Iām missing three from Stardew Valley, two of which Iām never going to complete because they involve getting a really high score on a mini game that I do not enjoy playing at all

I have played PlayStation fairly consistently for my entire life and the fact I donāt have a single platinum is a significant point of shame in my life.
I got quite into chasing it for THPS1+2 during the pandemic but donāt think I got that close in the end.
I think I got the Xbox equivalent for Halo 3 though.

No interest. Too many games to play although thatās a total cheek given the hundreds of hours Iāve lost to elden ring.
I cared back in my Xbox 360 days when I had a limit of games, free time and youth on my side. If I finished a game but couldnāt afford another one yet then I tried to clear the achievements.
These days Gamepass gives me a choice of too many games that the achievements feel a bit more meaningless

Couldnāt care less.
Just āfinishedā Sea of Stars, credits rolled, lovely. Except the ātrue endingā is gated behind a bunch of extra steps, including collecting a bunch of tedious shit across the game. If you do all of it, you get a final twist in the story, a different boss fight and a different Final Cut scene.
I just watched it on YouTube. Bullshit!

Really liked getting to 100% stuff back in my main uni gaming days - Assassins Creed, Red Dead, Braid etc
Not done it since though
I generally donāt worry about trophies unless I really love the game and so will be spending as much time as possible playing it. Iāve platinumed a few of the SoulsBorne games but that because I tend to do multiple runs through those game so I find itās nice to add some additional aims to those playthroughs.
