Hogwarts Legacy Platinum Trophy Forces You to Start Over Four Times

If completing all of the side quests weren't already enough, the Hogwarts Legacy platinum trophy requires multiple playthroughs.

I'm guessing to complete all houses? I mean, platinum trophies should be about challenge and playing the game to experience everything the game has to offer after all lol. Unfortunately most games basically just hand out trophies for much lower efforts now.

Lol the whining of gamers today. Not every game should be easy/convenient to platinum.

"If completing all of the side quests weren't already enough"

Is this person complaining about having to complete all side quests to platinum lol?

On PlayStation, you can see trophy stats for ever game and that will tell which trophies are working as a reward for players and which are not. If a 0.1% of players have the platinum, the trophy isn’t working. Or out another way, when over 99.9% of players don’t bother with trophies, the game might as well not have any.

"must do partial playthrough for each house (trophy unlocks ~2 hours into the game)" *4
Why not just upload/download the save file after each house -_-

Forces me? By magic?

Anyone who's planning on getting this game, avoid the internet while you play.
People mad at JKR are going around spoiling the game for others.

You know where you are right? Lol

As far as I've seen N4G users have been pretty decent lately.

Dumb title.

It’s like saying, “Diablo 2 forces you to beat the Diablo Clone 22,000 times”.

No, no it doesn’t.
If you want the trophy then go for it but nobody is forcing anything. I guess people are too used to Sony first party games’ Platinum Trophies being more of a participation trinket rather than an achievement as of late.

[Crows90]

Gotta say thats very true. Cant believe you can platinum tlou2 without beating it on hardest difficulty

[Dawknight316]

Honestly they should make you beat it four times.

It doesn’t force you to do anything.

Also, it’s a 2 hour run if you cloud save when you pick your House. You literally pick a house and then skip dialogue and do only things to get to the specific quest that unlocks the trophy. It doesn’t require you to play through the whole game at all. It’s like Quest 18 and it’s for getting the Chamber Map as a specific House.

Games journalism is a f*cking joke and I think this article is making a big deal out of nothing. Look up the PowerPyx guide if you want clarification. I already did these 4 trophies and now I can just do a single “real” playthrough to get rest.

Each house has unique characters and few unique quests leading up to the quest to give you the trophy, so it makes sense to give it as a House specific trophy.

Just make a cloud save as you get to the ceremony and overwrite your local save to get the trophy with a different House.

I'm more impressed they made different things for each house tbh. Most devs would go the lazy route

[UltimateRacer]

That’s actually fine by me, even though I’ve not got an interest in the other houses like Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff I’m still curious to play through as those houses anyway.

Is Hogwarts Legacy the first full Unreal Engine 5 game ever?

[LucidIllusion]

Good luck with that
