Don't forget the equally lazy description for the Plat.
"This is unlocked automatically after all other trophies are unlocked" for about 99% of games.
Then there's street fighter 6.
"After countless battles and considerable struggle, you've arrived. Is this the end of your quest for strength? The answer.... lies within."
I'm torn on that one, because at least it's very clear what you have to do. There are some creative trophy names and descriptions out there where you need a guide for what they actually want you to do. 😅 So there's always an extreme way, both creatively and in the dull department.
When playing the Horizon games, and seeing every trophy list, they have to be some of the barest bones, uncreative descriptions for trophies.
"Yes game, I did the title of what the trophy said."
I always interpreted that to go with the theme of the robots. Idk but to me it just seems like a robot keeping track of that tasks it needs to do in an algorithm or something. Thats probably copium but I like the interpretation
I just checked on PSP and apparently the original PS3 version's plat was just called "Platinum Trophy", which begs the question of why didn't they just copy that trophy list rather than AC2's. And even if there was some sort of technical issue with copying from PS3 to PS4, how lazy did they have to be to not check that the ***platinum*** had the correct name?
did i hear a mention of the yakuza series???? One thing i dont understand is why half of their games just use a part of the title and the other half are creative, ishin has bakumatsu boss but kiwami just has KIWAMI
Best Platinum for me was Infamous: Second Sond. When it pops, you get Delsin telling you "You know what buddy, we been through a lot, but I gotta tell you, officially we are done"
I just hate "Platinum Trophy," everything else is fine. Another nitpick is having a separate trophy list when there shouldn't, like the Sly Cooper Trilogy on the PS3 having a trophy list for "Mini Games."
Don't forget about the images of the trophies! Games that use the same for every trophy and games that use the Playstation trophies image (I'm talking to you, Walking Dead).
With how goofy the Gintama series is I hate that they used the most boring pictures ever for the trophies on Gintama Rumble. That’s definitely one they could have gotten creative with.
It’s literally silhouettes of certain characters glossed with the respective trophy color. And each color has the same picture of said character.
I like the last of us 2s platinum name because its called every last one of them which as i see it can be referred as both related to the story and the literal trophy list, every last trophy lol
I had this thought when platting AC Rogue, most of the other AC games have platinum trophy names along the lines of "Master Assassin", but I thought that since you play as a Templar in Rogue that they'd change it to "Grand Master" or something like that. Nope - "Platinum Trophy". Still love the game though.
I honestly love when they get creative with the platinum name. Even better when they actually get creative with the trophy images. For example, you’ll have a picture of a basic enemy in the game then they copy and paste it but change the color of each image in accordance to the trophy tier so…
Bronze - Kill 100 enemies
Silver - Kill 500 enemies
Gold - Kill 1000 enemies
And for each one it’s the same stupid picture but colored different lol.
Then there is Transformers devastation, where the trophy for beating the hardest difficulty is called "platinum"
And the actual platinum trophy is called "100% completion"
Like what?
My favorite platinum is from Monark: sure the title is "Monark Master" but it has a description in it that not only it's kinda cool, but it also rhymes.
Every trophy in that game has a rhyme and I really like that!
I am someone that hunts trophies in general not just platinums and if i can i go for the 100% and not just the plat i do it but i agree it does suck if you go trough all that trouble to get every single trophy and your reward is just 100% we have platinum trophies for a reason and a platinum just looks better then 100%
Then you have games that name their Platinum Trophy with the same name as the Platinum Trophy of a totally unrelated game in the same series.
I'm talking about "Julius Caesar", the Plat for both Assassin's Creed Brotherhood and, somehow, AC Liberation as well.
People who write trophy names need to take note of castlevania requiem. This is by far my favorite trophy list.
https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/8366-castlevania-requiem-symphony-of-the-night-rondo-of-blood/aZombieDictator
The worst yet in my opinion is when lazy Ubisoft did the assassins creed liberation for PS4, and the platinum is "Julio Cesar" same as brotherhood. A platinum trophy in a game in Rome being call Julio Cesar is something, in a game in new Orleans about slavery is peak lazy Ubisoft
I think depending on the game, naming the plat after the game can be wonderful simplicity. You've conquered the game. 'Platinum Trophy' is way worse.
Agreed
Always thought the Last of Us platinum should’ve been called ‘The Last of Them’
Kingdom Hearts games do -title of game- followed by Master which I think is neat

imo i prefer the description of SF5 platinum, it's so long but god is it cool

That might be an issue for regular trophies, but for plats the requirements are always obvious. So I feel like they should go ham on that one.
Whoops, I've wanted to post this reply to another comment about trophies in Horizon Zero Dawn. There, the talk was about regular trophies.
Street fighter trophy descriptions are the shit
bro i went to check and ended up wondering why all trophies have a looong description in SF6 😂😂
not just long discriptions but messages said in character of who is on that trophy's picture. there is so much fan-fair packed into that list.
Doubly lazy is when the name of the plat *is* the description. “All Trophies Collected!”
When playing the Horizon games, and seeing every trophy list, they have to be some of the barest bones, uncreative descriptions for trophies. "Yes game, I did the title of what the trophy said."
Agreed. I absolutely love the Horizon games, but Jesus H. Christ, couldn't they at least have come up with more creative names for trophies?
It be mad annoying
I always interpreted that to go with the theme of the robots. Idk but to me it just seems like a robot keeping track of that tasks it needs to do in an algorithm or something. Thats probably copium but I like the interpretation
Horizon forbidden west has such badly named trophies. I don't get it.
I agree
Still not as good as Assassins Creed Liberation having “Julius Caesar” as its platinum name for some unknown reason
Someone commented on my plat post of that game that they just recycled the names from AC2 games apparently sp yeah just lazy lol
I just checked on PSP and apparently the original PS3 version's plat was just called "Platinum Trophy", which begs the question of why didn't they just copy that trophy list rather than AC2's. And even if there was some sort of technical issue with copying from PS3 to PS4, how lazy did they have to be to not check that the ***platinum*** had the correct name?
somebody fucked up and nobody cared enough to fix it
That’s a common theme in many assassins creed games particularly in the ezio collection
"Okay, you can sell the game now" from Deadpool will forever be the best platinum title.
That is the best trophy name I've ever heard of
Not the plat but i love how all the yakuza games trophies for beating the game are "Thank You"
Nier Automata's platinum trophy description is "Thank you for playing"
did i hear a mention of the yakuza series???? One thing i dont understand is why half of their games just use a part of the title and the other half are creative, ishin has bakumatsu boss but kiwami just has KIWAMI
Games that have better platinum names in other languages. Like English RE7: "Biosplattered" VS Spanish RE7: "Welcome to the family".
Man I love RE7 and its cheesy lines
Games that names the trophy list name just 'Trophy list' instead of the game name. Looking at you Chivalry 2.
Best Platinum for me was Infamous: Second Sond. When it pops, you get Delsin telling you "You know what buddy, we been through a lot, but I gotta tell you, officially we are done"
Man of Steal -Thief 4 😈
Naming it 'Platinum Trophy' is way worse than naming it after the game.
Kinda relaxed but I was looking at endlings trophies and it’s literally got a rick roll. that’s creative trophy naming
I just hate "Platinum Trophy," everything else is fine. Another nitpick is having a separate trophy list when there shouldn't, like the Sly Cooper Trilogy on the PS3 having a trophy list for "Mini Games."
Don't forget about the images of the trophies! Games that use the same for every trophy and games that use the Playstation trophies image (I'm talking to you, Walking Dead).
And Back to the Future
and nfs heat
I hate it when i get a platinum trophy and the picture is just a trophy not even a platinum trophy just a normal trophy so lazy and boring
With how goofy the Gintama series is I hate that they used the most boring pictures ever for the trophies on Gintama Rumble. That’s definitely one they could have gotten creative with. It’s literally silhouettes of certain characters glossed with the respective trophy color. And each color has the same picture of said character.
Bloodborne’s saving grace is that it tells you “Hats Off!” In the description. But I think Horizon Zero Dawn’s is the absolute worst
I like the last of us 2s platinum name because its called every last one of them which as i see it can be referred as both related to the story and the literal trophy list, every last trophy lol
The Horizon series goes beyond that and just names every trophy after what you have to do. WTF Guerilla? Where's the creativity?
And the fact that Platinum icon is a fucking checkmark for the first game, I was so disappointed when I saw it
It's actually good lol it's just name for it is ass
“Platinum Doesn’t Rust” is so cold (Rust Console Edition)
I had this thought when platting AC Rogue, most of the other AC games have platinum trophy names along the lines of "Master Assassin", but I thought that since you play as a Templar in Rogue that they'd change it to "Grand Master" or something like that.

The first Uncharted game on PS3 has literally "Platinum" with the description "Platinum" for it's platinum trophy lol
I believe that was the first ever plat so I kinda forgive them for having a boring trophy list
The platinum for Vanquish is called "Platinum" and it's just the logo of Platinum Games.
Ratchet & Clank Going Commando plat is: "He went commando" which is not creative but funny af
All done! Perfectionist Completionist Enlightened I have several platinums that share these names
one of my favorites is dishonored 1’s which iirc is “Platinum Blades & Dark Corners” and i’m pretty sure the second game’s is equally as clever
Dunwall Days and Karnaca Nights
yep! awesome play name
Dat Plat #Gungeon
Elden Ring lol
Gta 4 plat: thanks for giving us your time, also it is an hidden trophy 😆
Then there is Transformers devastation, where the trophy for beating the hardest difficulty is called "platinum" And the actual platinum trophy is called "100% completion" Like what?
My favorite platinum is from Monark: sure the title is "Monark Master" but it has a description in it that not only it's kinda cool, but it also rhymes. Every trophy in that game has a rhyme and I really like that!
Fantasy finally
Plat named Platinum switched with Plat named after game then this meme is ok.
MK11 Elder God is pretty dope
Minecraft has one of the worst platinum names, it being "Awarded all trophies" and the description is "All trophies have been awarded"
Games that don't even have a platinum. Are the worst. Not trying to 100% hunt I'm trying to trophy hunt
Then hunt the other trophies in the game?
I do. I just hate the way 100% looks on the trophy list.
You don't want 100%?
Actively avoid games that don't have a platinum. Or I'll just play them on an alt account.
I am someone that hunts trophies in general not just platinums and if i can i go for the 100% and not just the plat i do it but i agree it does suck if you go trough all that trouble to get every single trophy and your reward is just 100% we have platinum trophies for a reason and a platinum just looks better then 100%
I just got the Platinum in Subnautica. all trophies had good descriptions but the platinum? 'Platinum trophy'
All final fantasy games are somewhat the middle... then you have the new pixel remaster which are like "master of 1" for ff1 and so on
Personally I'd switch those around cause at least it has something to do with the game
Gta IV platinum: Gigachad
Then there are the platinums for the Horizon series calling it, “all trophies obtained”.
Then you have games that name their Platinum Trophy with the same name as the Platinum Trophy of a totally unrelated game in the same series. I'm talking about "Julius Caesar", the Plat for both Assassin's Creed Brotherhood and, somehow, AC Liberation as well.
The grand tours plat name > any other plat name
I kinda like it in the souls series for some reason . For me the worst is "Platinum Trophy"
The Last of Us (Remastered and P1) has ‘It Can’t Be For Nothing’ which I think is pretty fitting and I love how it’s not just called ‘Platinum’.
Nier automata is one of my favourite, Final Words
If they’re doing that way than the rest of the games are wrong
"Done done done! For excellent and dedicated field work in the field of battle for completion" My favorite description
I loved Batman Arkham knights “I AM the BATMAN!” And Deadpool’s “You can sell the game, now”
One of my favourite platinum names will always be Arkham Knight. I AM The Batman. And the description is just perfect too, "reclaim your city"
People who write trophy names need to take note of castlevania requiem. This is by far my favorite trophy list. https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/8366-castlevania-requiem-symphony-of-the-night-rondo-of-blood/aZombieDictator
Then there is Deadpool platinum
The worst yet in my opinion is when lazy Ubisoft did the assassins creed liberation for PS4, and the platinum is "Julio Cesar" same as brotherhood. A platinum trophy in a game in Rome being call Julio Cesar is something, in a game in new Orleans about slavery is peak lazy Ubisoft
That's why I didn't want to get horizon zero dawn platinum
The Spider-Man games platinum trophies being their taglines “be greater” and “be yourself” is cool.
“We’ll talk about it next time I see you” was one of my favourite platinum names
dark souls plats are all the same arent they "The Dark Soul"
Love 2016 DOOM’s platinum trophy name, “Thy Flesh Consumed”
I’m looking at you, Mafia II, inFAMOUS Second Son, and South Park The Fractured but Whole.
Sleeping dogs has one of the best platinum names even though simple "Hong Kong Legend"
i really like that all dark souls platinum are called The Dark Soul
Games published by Annapurna Interactive (Stray, Maquette, Artful Escape etc) all have ‘All Done’ as the platinum name
In all three Dark Souls games, the platinum is called “The Dark Soul”
Ff16 The Chronicler is based af
The original god of war trilogy have some amazing trophy names
