There's a way to snag the "The Protocol is About Life" trophy without needing to finish the game on the hardest difficulty.

One of these days I will get around to playing the PS Plus version I got as a monthly game in October.
There's something about this game that once you start playing it it's difficult to put it down. Very enjoyable and it gives you the sense of dread and loneliness which not many horror games achieve due to boring fetch quests and going over the same areas multiple times. We probably won't see a sequel though. I'm yet to play the dlc I bought on sale.
I played it and it surpassed my expectations a actually loved it and was kicking myself for not paying for it and supporting the team.
Maybe it's because I had a fully patched and polished version but I played the 10 hour campaign and walked away a fan
Just rip through it at the lowest difficulty. Turns a bad game into a mediocre game.
Soulslikes typically bank on action-RPG familiarity while offering a signature touch, which The Callisto Protocol attempted in survival-horror roots.
History will be kind to The Callisto Protocol, as an ambitious ultra-high-budget game that was flawed but ultimately fun.
I see it the other way around.
I have played so many games on PSNow/PS+ and GamePass that should be could, but I end up doing the same shit as on Netflix. A few minutes here, a few minutes there, and then play nothing.
When I actually buy a game, I invest in it more.
Then why waste your money paying for PS Plus and GamePass? Sounds like the smart thing to do is only pay for what you want to play.

The money I spend on GPU and PS+ Premium is so little, I rather have that Netflix experience from time to time than not.
Also my kids love it and plays a lot of different games.
Then every now and then, there are games I didn't had time to buy, but would play.
Right now I'm going through all the Star Ocean games, and every single one (except Second Story R) is on PS+ Premium, which makes them easily available.
When you purchace a PS+ subscription (even if it just "essentials") in addition to free games you can get discounts on some games and some of those discounts can be as much as 90%.
That's fair, I find it easier to enjoy a game when I don't pay for it because I know there is no loss to me. I will invest in a game if I buy it but if the game itself isn't great then I have a hard time actually caring to play it. I also criticize more when I buy a game rather than playing it for free. Feels more like a chore.
I disagree I barely give games I haven't paid for 5 minutes of my time it takes more for a free game to grab me when I've paid for a game I can push myself to love it at times and make sure I get my money's worth
I would definitely think it's the other way around. When you buy a game you invest time into playing. Where games on sub services you may play for a bit & then forget about it & so on.
The game wasn't as bad as the backlash would lead you to believe. It just wasn't great - it had great visuals, solid world building and sound design.
I feel it was let down by the story and the somewhat inconsistent melee combat. Also marketed as if it was the next Dead Space. At least DS had some scares - there were none in this game.
I played it, I enjoyed it, I immediately sold it whilst the trade price was still high. Glad its on PSPlus now so I can finish off the trophies.
Yea, game journalists went full r*tard with this game, but now that you didn’t pay for it, it’s a game you can appreciate.
Makes sense..,
I’ll have to play it eventually. I won’t buy games that less than 10-15 hours at generally. I’ll buy a physical copy really cheap someday
Honestly the price tanked hard and if went from £50 to £15-£20 within about a month. It'll definitely be bargain bin material soon.
I actually prefer shorter games myself since my backlog is atrocious BUT I just made the mistake of starting Hades this week. Like a 60hr platinum
Well Gamestop has had several sales where it was literally $5. So, I don't think you're gonna find it much cheaper.
Right there with you jznrpg. It's gotta be a long game for me to drop day one money
Lol - I was wondering if that was possible because most games don’t let you re-up your difficulty after you lower it.
But in CP you can swap as much as you want at any time in any direction.
What's the point in that ? You're just cheating yourself
I just beat the game and figured I’d see if this worked after beating the final boss. I believe it is officially patched because it did not trigger on my save before and after.
So what does the trophy do for you? Other than bragging clout with the 1 friend you might have, who else cares? especially for a mediocre game? that’s an accomplishment to be “proud” about? lol.
