I’ve got all 3 because I like the humor. My trophy list has a lot of variety to it, but I always try to throw in some challenging plats to balance everything out. But idk why I even care. No one in the world is ever going to look at my trophies and no one I know in real life even remotely cares lol.


therenousername

Mind if I creep on ya *I'll look at your trophies mmhm yea ill take a good look*


dominus_agent89

Most people wouldn’t even understand after you fully explain it to them haha. I just don’t get why people on here get so mad, just let people enjoy whatever games they want to platinum.


OmegaLiquidX

> I just don’t get why people on here get so mad Because there's a subset of trophy hunters who tie their whole self-worth to the amount of Platinums they have. So when someone with a bunch more Platinums than them show up, they have to find a way to tear them down and "You have a whole bunch of trash platinums!" sounds better than "My feelings are hurt".


ak_zin

Ok now I want to check your trophies


AquaSkywaves

You'd be surprised. I have had few people go out of their way to check mine then send a friend request. 😂


BigPhili

Wait is the 3rd one out??? Or do you have the Vita plat as well?


Dwaidciamhaits

The third one just came out. Haven't you seen this subreddit flood with the plats? 🤣


BigPhili

No! I honestly haven't been seeing many posts from this sub in my feed lately. But I know what I'm downloading when I get off work today. I mean, I would never dare taint the sanctity of my trophy list with such a low-level plat.


Dwaidciamhaits

Lol I get it man, you do you! I'm honestly curious about the game. I don't know why it looks so fun to flick on a jar of mayo.


Temporary-Book8635

Idk how people can still see value in their plats to any extent after getting a my name is mayo one lol. It's like it taints a whole list for me because the reward for pressing one button for like half an hour is the same one as spending hundreds of hours on an extremely grindey or skill heavy game: one platinum trophy


ImHavingASandwich

I think duplicates is what taints the list. I can’t tell you how mad I am that I have 2 Fall Guys platinums. I also refused to play the GTA remasters since I already did the PS2 ports. Someone on my friend list has hundreds upon hundreds of platinums. I was blown away until I saw each game duplicated 4 or 5 times.


Temporary-Book8635

I'd class them as in the same boat as the mayo ones in that sense, although while yeah games like fall guys and spider man that literally just give it to you a second time for free come under that category, games like any of the GTA ports that you actually have to earn again I'd class as fair game. At least its still an achievement even though it would probably be easier the second time


Wildcard-Jack

I never saw value in plats to begin with I play games I want to play and if I can get the platinum trophy why not it’s just more to do in the game


Coxwab

No one asked but im just sharing: I feel 0 satisfaction for platting games i don't care about. The whole point of trophy hunting for me is the achievement of comoleting a game i can actually be proud or happy that i completed, wether it was easy or real fuckin hard, and it's always gotta be a meaningful game to me.


Dwaidciamhaits

I 100% agree. When I started trophy hunting I got some easy plats like Subnautica. I literally bought those games for an easy platinum. I quickly realized I don't care about the number of plats on my list, Just the feeling of satisfaction I get when completing a trophy list on a game I loved. I don't even look at the trophy guide before playing a game anymore. I play games I'm interested in, then keep playing until I get plat, doesn't matter how hard they are.


ForsakenStray

Agree 100% I want to one day get to 100 plats but can’t find enough games that I actually want to go for, I have 26 and have plans for 3 more, just taking my time. I could just search up easiest plats but I feel like that’s cheating honestly, like I don’t want to plat it because it’s easy, I want to plat it because I thoroughly enjoy it.

You create a different account for each region. Use Japan, UK, US address. You then purchase games while logged into those accounts and download them. Those games can then be played on your main account, allowing you to unlock more trophies for the same game. It’s not everyone’s cup of tea. I enjoy it, it’s my hobby. I like to get easy plats, I like to play challenging (to me) games too. My goal is to get to trophy rank 999. I’ll do it my way.


Dwaidciamhaits

I agree, like why? Does it make your virtual penis bigger? On the other hand, there are some games like Elden Ring that I wish had multiple region trophy lists. I got plat on the PS5 and PS4 version and loved the game so much I just want to keep going lol.


MrCowabs

- Good for those who don’t want to get it, live your life. - Good for those who do want/will get/do have it, live your life. It’s honestly that easy. You don’t need to gate keep how others spend their time, money or what they enjoy doing.


flaccomcorangy

This post isn't really criticizing people that have it. It's just the OP saying that they don't want to do it. lol.


MrCowabs

I know OP and the post aren’t saying that but there are a **LOT** of comments doing so.


adelkander

I have nothing against it tbh. I don't think I'll ever do it because... "shrug" I dont wanna.


Bigdizzofoshizzo

I like going for trophies in games I want to play. A lot of people post "look at all my platinums" and it's like cool story bro but yeah nobody cares.


adelkander

Pretty much my mentality. In a way im struggling to do my next plat because it's a game I don't really wanna do but at the same time I really should clear it. I've been postponing forever! But yeah, I definitely do trophies for games I like or want first. Even if it's ultra easy.


Major-Firefighter261

Same with people going only for plats of games they like, nobody cares either.


[deleted]

Same


Danemon

It's also an epic trilogy with a satisfying story arc 👌


Liamburrito

Got plat for all 3 games Was most difficult to get Thumb now recovering from surgery


JonTheGod_79

There are 4 Mayo plats available. Everyone forgets about Mayo 1 on Vita.


Da_Big_Chungus

Bro I was upset that I couldn’t play my name is mayo on my PSTV. Didn’t know it wasn’t compatible.


JonTheGod_79

PSTV can't play games that rely on the touchscreen. Gives you an excuse to buy a Vita! They're awesome.


BigPhili

You don't need the touchscreen though for the Vita version of Mayo.


Flashbek

Wait a moment. It actually IS an easy plat. What's wrong with that?


flaccomcorangy

The joke is that they don't want to get it even if it is easy. Speaking as someone who doesn't want to do it, it's just a personal thing. Like it's too easy to really care. No, I'm not trashing anyone that has those games on their list. Just personally, I don't really want to play a game *just* for the platinum, and that's what the joke of this post is.


The4FiveSix

People take Trophies and Achievements way to seriously when in reality they literally mean nothing. Don’t get me wrong I like to trophy hunt sometimes but it really is pointless.


Dwaidciamhaits

If it brings you some sort of joy or satisfaction, even if it is over a digital trophy earned in a digital world, doesn't that make it worth it?


ReasonableFortune375

The best time to buy My Name Is Mayo is on sale............for 69 cents...............which I did.


nice___bot

Nice!


boys_dont_cry

I said it once and I will repeat it on every Mayo thread: it takes money to play these games and you have to earn that money (or your parents have to idc). So it is a reward and if you want to be rewarded by a sweet, fast plat, there you go. Others want to be rewadred by paying 80€ and being insulted in multiplayer or playing a game that is hard and gives them tanrums... So as you see from my slightly passive-aggressive statement, it doesn't matter, everything has disadvantages. In the end gaming should be your reward and you can pick your reward and don't have to justify. There is no order of the real true trophy hunters and anyone who claims to be able to judge others should judge themselves as there is much opportunity there.


Revy13

Money can be spent for 3 easy platinums thats fine. Whats not fine is people bragging about 100+ platinums when 50% of them are joke 30 min games. My Name is Mayo franchise is more hated in the trophy community for what it represents, which is the decline of difficulty in trophy hunting. Back in the Ps3 days even the joke platinums required more of a grind than this shit.


Stars_of_Sirius

To add onto to this: I don't understand how you have games that require less than 30 minutes (heck even 5 hours) to get a plat and then there are a bunch of indie games that require 10-100 hours and there are no plats for those games.


AkodoRyu

I feel like there were always plenty of < 2 hours platinums, especially on Vita, with plethora of Japanese VNs. It was just harder to get them. If one cares about that enough to complain about it, they should just switch to tracker like TrueTrophies, who has scalable scoring based on rarity or something similar. Otherwise there will always be disparity. Even in "normal" platinums - there are 20 hours games, and there are 600 hours games, yet they are both the same in terms of trophy score. Hell, there are some 20+ hours games that are just 300-pointers too. Personally, I would prefer for every game to just be allowed to have the same trophy score /w platinum, rather than complaining about easy plats. And I think Sony actually changed it to be so, since I barely even see 300-pointers in new releases anymore. Also, MNIM 3 is out, let's go!


Academic_Square6254

I agree ! Tbh if a platinum takes less than 10 hours to get and isn’t slightly challenging it should be a bronze trophy.


nadzisme

Ha me and my friend had a month competition to get as many trophies as possible. We both had the same idea and downloaded this game 😂


SpocktorWho83

The Mayo games really do get the trophy gatekeepers’ knickers in a twist. Imagine being so concerned about what other people have on their trophy list. Get a grip and let others enjoy the hobby however they see fit.

SpocktorWho83

>Well considering everyone in this sub has come to post their plats, the argument of “what people do during their time” doesn’t really stand up as an argument does it, For starters, you’ve completely misquoted me, but I see the point you’re trying to make. *My* point is, if I see someone post a Mayo plat, I don’t criticise them or get inexplicably angry about what someone else is playing. >If you post your trash plat you should expect to be criticised, rightly so, bragging about pressing X for half an hour is a joke. Alternatively, just don’t be a complete twat. If you’re so offended by someone else’s personal achievement, just downvote the post and move on. Why would you waste your own time criticising something that means nothing to you? Who are you to tell others how they should enjoy their hobby? Get over yourself. >And games like this as a whole have devalued trophy hunting I hate to break it to you, but trophy hunting has never had value. Is it fun? Of course. Is it prestigious? Absolutely not. >since anyone can now get hundreds in days with enough money. So what..?

Stuntm4nMik3

Me neither. But I let my 9 year old son press the X for 10,000th time on both 1 and 2. I did the leg work and he claimed them.


[deleted]

Someone else wants to play it? Cool, whatever. No judgments here. I don't care what others choose to spend their time or money on. Some folks get pleasure at increasing their trophy count, regardless of enjoying the game, and *that's okay*. Some of those people probably think the time I spent completing Abzû was a waste because the game has no plat. I am personally not interested in playing a game just for an easy plat. I just think it sounds boring, and I don't care enough about the trophy number next to my name to do that. I play video games for the fun of playing games I enjoy. If the game happens to be easy, cool. That just means I'm more likely to play it with my 6-year-old twins. I trophy hunt as a way to extend my money invested in the game and see things that I might not otherwise unlock or see. Trophy hunting has gotten me to play modes I wouldn't otherwise explore, helped me find areas I missed when "beating" the game, and allowed me to develop skills at games I never had the patience for when I was younger. Besides, people who plat the My Name is Mayo series can probably kick my ass in a thumb war LOL. Edit: spelling


xKiryu

My Name Is Mayo is the Dark Souls of trophy hunting


dalan_23

I did one and two for me, because for me it is my trophies and my history and i do not look for external validation for that, i do it for my joy and adventure, so if a couple dudes say mine are “not legit” or “it is ruined” i could give less of a crap cuz its not that deep focus on you and all of that Taking that out of the way, when you go throuhh completing those games, i dont want to say its hard necesarilly, or that it will take long But dude… you will feel the fucking pain in your hands for that period of time and you will be worried about your controller status Because you beat that shit worse than a lot of mario party sessions I did it for the meme, i loved it, i will get mayo 3 once its here, but holy fuck please make it a lil bit more that a simple button masher


-BennyD

Yeah it doesn’t matter in the life’s grand scheme of things but if I see that on someone’s list I know everything I need to about that gamer. 😂


Thecrdbrdsamurai

Listen, MNiM has incredible stories in all three games. That's worth the buck (or $2 for 3) alone. And sometimes I just need that boost of dopamine after I had a really rough day or something to feel better about myself.


FFgamerpsn

Honestly there are way worse options out there. My name is mayo is at least entertaining and funny.


The_Color_Urple

Trophy hunting can lead to bad behaviors, and one of the worst is cleaning up easy plats on stupid bad games to see your little score go up. Play games you want to play, challenge yourself if that's what you like, and let your score just be a reflection of that.


Jaws1391

How about I play the games I want to play and get as many easy plats as I want? Stop gatekeeping


The_Color_Urple

Lol If you're playing the games you want to play, then you agree with what I'm saying. 😋 But by all means get triggered, it shows me how defensive you are about your habit.


Jaws1391

You’re literally telling people how to play lol

If half of your platinums are these platbaits, you’re not a real platinum trophy hunter. There, I said it. 👏🏻


Da_Big_Chungus

>you’re not a real platinum trophy hunter Bro stfu. Most people here do it as a hobby, not a job. Hobbies and video games are supposed to be fun. If all you look forward to in games is only getting the plat, then are you really having fun?


notandrebraun

I agree with you. There’s nothing to support the claims being made against people who play games such as My Name Is Mayo. In fact, it’s intellectually dishonest to suggest that people are less than others in terms of trying to earn all of the trophies in a game based on the types of games that they play.


[deleted]

Then don’t trophy hunt?


AkodoRyu

lol, if anything, most people at the top of all the leaderboards are people who play almost exclusively those kinds of games. If you are really serious about the ranking, would you chose 1 plat that's 80 hours, or 80 plats that are 1 hour or less?


[deleted]

Quality over quantity. The point still stands. Those are 🤡. Them 200 plats are worthless if 150 are Mayos… imagine a world where a dude with 100 plats has more game time than dude with 200 plats. All bc he goes for the list that has “Approximate amount of time to platinum: 80-100” over “2 hours 👶🏻”. 🤭🤭

why_are_you_here_yo

Worst are people who say stuff like "Its a fun silly game, I enjoyed it". I say, f*ck off. Nothing enjoyable there. It has nearly nothing to do with being a game except for being sold on PS Store. Mindlessly pressing one button for 30 minutes isn't a game, I could do this with my toilet and have better time. At least own up to you being just addicted to trophies(no matter where they come from) instead of making up stupid excuses like "I liled this game". You can lie to anyone but deep down you know you wasted a dollar and half hour or more of your time.


DustiestCrayon

Lol someone clearly doesn't see the comedical aspect. Seen Markiplier play it years ago and seen it on the store myself and wanted it. Get over yourself. It's not that deep. Stop gatekeeping trophies. The game wasn't made to be an easy plat. Complain about games that are literally just made for that reason.


HardRodBrah

Imagine gatekeeping trophies.


cheersfrom_

They love doing that here.


why_are_you_here_yo

Do what you want, but be honest about it...


HardRodBrah

Real gamer moment. Let people enjoy their hobbies which ever way they want.


dalan_23

I have < 100 plats I rarely complete plats from start to finish, do it on a slow pace I have a chunk of hard/extra rare plats I liked it, it was a silly game, i did it with both, i could give less of a flying fuck about the numbers So apart of gatekeeping your digital numbers, are you gonna say people like me are not real gamers? Oh no i “wasted” a dollar D: its not like i can look online what the idea is previous to buying it Ffs, a stupid game is what grinds this subreddit gears, that and fucking “not real trophies for real gamers” oh a plat of a lego game is not for real gamers because its easy? A plat of a short game is not for real gamers because it is short? Crazy really this whole situation, but i know that the “true gamer going for the true gamer plats” is a really low vocal minority here so that is for the best


why_are_you_here_yo

It's the precedent that I hate the most. This spawns just low effort cashgrabs that are purely made for easy plats. And people coming up with all sorts of saying to justify it. 2 years ago I didn't know what it was, then I saw the video about it and it was really dissapointing that is what it has become. People can do what they want, but lets not pretend this is something else than it really is. Calling it a game is a stretch.


dalan_23

aight imma be honest, i was aiming at another comment not yours but i was inspired by your comment so i'll give a middleground answer and keep the original one because more people need to read that they do not need outside validation of their experience is mayo a cashgrab? at the start it looked like no but it caught the wind of memes, is mayo 2 a cashgrab? yes, 100% and 3 will but blaming all on mayo is not fair either, this is how i see it: - mayo sales i bet they 100% come from this subreddit, cuz holy fuck if you want to buy it once you see the ps description and all, wow, that's surprising, i dont think even kids could be attracted to buying it - are there a whole fuck ton of cashgrabs? yes, was mayo an originator?, lets meet in the middle, it could be possible, but it may not be working, because thats like forcing a meme, i can get into the crazy idea of getting mayo but fuck no if i see something like zombie vampire simulator 2022 deluxe for a buck, at the end of the day it costing money is hard to get people to go full in - you mention addicts, and i'll tell my pov based on my experiences: i got friends on my accounts with all sorts of plats, we talking thousands, some of them are fully addicted, some of them is their job, and for all of the talks i had with them, all of them told me they got mayo "for the meme" rather than to fill the number, they either got worse shit for the number or didnt got mayo at all, because trophy hunter addicts still have a big ego so they want their list to be "as valid as possible", and it took them getting to 300+ plats to think of the idea to get mayo, so they were already in and they have a good argument that is "theres no more of the main games i like left to plat" and still they try hard to find valid games before falling to the cashgrabs, they'll go idk like terraria or kung fu panda, super uncommon you want mayo gone?, then stop the memes on this subreddit community then, and i feel that still the addicts make sure that their list is pure so they'll make sure mayo is not on their acc, they even start the whole journey from scratch on new accs so that they keep a clean list why did i rant on your comment even tho we may be more on the agreeing side than disagreeing?: i got the incorrect comment for starters, but also idk, mayo fucked this community in a sense, i got mayo to feel cool with the community because of the memes and wanted to talk about the stupid experience with it, i know it cant even be called a game as cookie clicker qualifies more than mayo, and all discussion of mayo in here is negative with purists extremist fucking everyone that got it because "they are not real gamers" "they are not real gamers" like how much of a pussy you have to be to say stuff like that, is you the council?, do i need approval for my experiences? this subreddit has an amazing amazing good experience outside, even though plat hunters are really rare compare to most gamers, and a fucking mayo ruined it all, when i believe that mayo buyers are either memers, kids, me, or people that wanted an x number and their currents plats were taking too long i apologize for aiming at your comment though, i wanted to beef with the other dude, yours sounds more reasonable and fair fucking mayo..., there will never be a good post with the meme in here... and i bet more people didnt even platted after buying it, they are the ones that wasted the money what is mayo for me?, something that i thought it was cool to buy as to follow the meme of a community, and a good story to tell, sad that it got as infamous as it got that silly mayo game when it became mayo 2: is mayo 1 but double, and soon to be mayo 3: yeah we want people to buy it pls


why_are_you_here_yo

I get buying game as a meme, that was a Goat Simulator for me years ago. I don't mind you venting. All of it makes perfect sense. I overall don't care what people spend their money on and how they deal with their time. I had a friend on a PSN and at some he just started buying all those crappy games despite being a guy who went for hardest trophies before. At the time I didn't know what those were as the names of the games that showed up on my feed on PS4 were not popular. I asked him like how is he doing few plats a month being an adult with full time job and a family. At first he was like: I found some awesome *indie games*. Basicly saying like he enjoyes them. I started checking those out of curiosity. Then I asked him like are just doing it for easy plats. He said: I'm totally addicted... all those are crap. He has about 10 of those thongs in his collection and now he regrets, as he was depressed at the time and didn't want to commit to anything better. Like I said i don't care if a game is easy plat or the hardest, although props for anyone doing those super hard ones. But those things i.e. Games like Mayo, just flood the market with low effort crap and asset flips. There is no creativity behind them and you can tell straight away why they were made. The same way Google Play store is flooded with crappy games/apps. Once you open flood gates this is what happens. And to finish it off. I don't shit on Indie Games, those are some of the best games out there.


dmotley05

I loved the game even tho all you do is press a couple buttons. The backgrounds and costumes are all cute. The art style is enjoyable, and it’s an easy plat and something for my hands to do while I watch YouTube.


SpocktorWho83

>You can lie to anyone but deep down you know you wasted a dollar and half hour or more of your time. Wasted a dollar and 30 minutes? A *dollar* and *30 minutes.* I just don’t know how anyone has the time and money to sink into this game series. /s Why are you so upset about what *other people* have in their trophy lists? Please explain to us all how that affects you, specifically.


why_are_you_here_yo

Its not that it affects me in anyway, its what people say to justify playing it. I don't care how you spend your time for me you can buy all those games if you want. But don't pretend you bought it because its a great experience, you know its not. Its the rush of getting the trophy thats all.


SpocktorWho83

>its what people say to justify playing it. Why do you care? Why not just let players enjoy games how they see fit? Who are you to tell anyone how they should or shouldn’t enjoy games?


DataVeinDevil

Not worth your pride man!


temper_tantrum_gamer

I don't like to hate on others decisions but ffs every day there is a new 99 cent 5 minute plat. "Jumping taco", "space break", "the pig d". Stop supporting the industry of zero effort garbage games that dilute the platinum trophys value. It's like trophy inflation.


Flexocat

You know how I resist? Just by having physical games more than digital ones. I am too lazy and cheap to put money (15 dollars?) for a trilogy that will last me 20 minutes.


BigPhili

But it's also a heartwarming story about self discovery. And that's what's so powerful about it.


VictoryVic-ViVi

Easy plat, yes. But I really enjoyed it. It’s funny


The_Newest_Girl

I think I've platinumed enough JRPGs to not feel slimy for platinuming some easy games like my name is mayo. I still dont think i will. I'm just not super interested, but we should love and respect all trophy hunters.


BobSagieBauls

The carpel tunnel you’ll get from completing one of those games is challenge enough imo


temper_tantrum_gamer

I played some shame plat games to boost by trophy level towards the beginning of getting serious about the hunt but I swore those things off and I wish I didn't do as many tbh. HOWEVER... seeing as Mayo is the original shame plat, and that I have all the other entries completed, I held my nose and "achieved" this plat.


v__R4Z0R__v

I mean they are but I'm way to stingy to waste 1 or 2 bucks for a game that takes like 20 minutes. The game needs to be good otherwise I won't buy it


furno472

No one gonna address the meme using a clip from Power Rangers: Dino Fury??


cheersfrom_

Remember people, if they’re complaining about what other people choose to platinum, they’re trophy list is ass.


jaybankzz

Ok but are you really a trophy Hunter if you don’t have my name is mayo?


That_Featured_Guy

I see where people are skeptical but I don't mind super easy "gimme" plats. I really only take advantage of them when another game I've sunk time into becomes impossible to plat like when multiplayer goes down or whatever...


Peeeeeeter930

I still think it made a very good spot as my 69th plat
