Square Enix need to be called out for NOT adding trophies to any of the expansions to FFXIV. Thought they had to add them by law if its paid content?

What's really crappy is that they made it impossible to get 100% of trophies in FFXV because you can't get the comrades trophies now. I was aiming for 100% in all FF games so this really, really bugs me.
I'm glad the mods saw right through his transparent attempt at tag fishing and didn't indulge him.
As soon as I saw the title I knew how this thread was going to devolve. Great way to start the week 😂

All i know is I never went out of my way before achievements/trophies came in to get everything. The fact that they are there make me enjoy games more and get more out of them. Like the achievement list for DQXI was great and I got 170 nice hours out of it because of it.
This FFXIV game would have been better with them, but at least they give you rewards for them and they actually tell you what you have to do to unlock them, unlike old games where you just stumbled onto something by accident but then it got lost on your save file due to the cartridge format and switching gens etc.
Fair point. Games headed by Masahiro Sakurai such as Kirby Air Ride, Kid Icarus Uprising, and the Smash Bros. series usually have challenge boards which are literally in-game achievements with rewards attached.
I don't think it's tag fishing, tbh. This is just par for the course for their threads/posts
Resetera needs to be called out for not adding a tag to mogster7777. Thought they had to add it by law if dumb content.
Oh ok, lol. I've had many times where I was reading a post like "huh?" then saw it was a Mogster777 post and it's like "oh yeah ok".
Nah, Bronson ran on that platform but then went back on it when he got elected. Can never trust that guy.
Did you really enjoy your time with DQ11? I would be able to 100% the game 2,5x with your time and it was a god damn waste of my time in my first playthrough to do the platinum stuff. Trophys are a waste of time and useless filler. Most of the achivements dont even need you to evolve your skill or do some crazy shit. RPGs are the worst in that regard with all those useless Max level achivements. I rather like to finish my next game. It's not like I feel better doing them - the few times i do that I always start to hate the experience so I stop or do it quickly like with DQ

Yeah I enjoyed every moment and the trophies helped me 100% it and see the majority of the game. Same with MGSSV trying to get full rank on each mission was fun and made you think on how to approach each mission especially later ones. Same with Ni No Kuni 2. Building your base to max was time consuming but also really fun and there was a nice trophy at the end of it for the effort.
Anyway I haven't had a chance to play FFXIV over the weekend as I was playing Darksiders 3 which I will finish tonight. Speaking of DS3 it's a fun game with nice trophy list. However I I won't be getting all of them I never force myself to get everything if it's too time consuming and that time doesn't equal to more or good enough fun. I don't really fancy the idea of going through a 7.5/10 game again to get the rest. I'm happy with just one playthrough and have enjoyed it mostly regardless of trophies. I always have a limit with trophies. I'm not one of those who forces themselves to get everything even on a shitty or average game to the point where it feels like work and I could be playing something much better.
The game has to be really good and not have ridiculous requirements in its trophies if I'm gonna get them all. So it's not like I can't enjoy games if I don't get every single one. I don't really platinum games much tbh. But I like to get as many as I can along the way if a game is fun or good enough like DS3.
I've also never understood why some RPGs force you to go through their 50-100 hour game again if you wanted the last couple of trophies. NISA games are pretty guilty of this. Like no matter how good a game is I never normally replay it unless it's a short second playthrough and super fun. Life's short.

Just to advise. The trophy support is in full swing with this game now. With content packs having their own trophy list with each major update. Looks like they followed through and listened to feedback after all!
