Monday Gaming Diary: Remember that game I never Platinumed?

January 4, 2016 By Keri Honea Leave a Comment

D3x1_Bounty_rewards_UI_AD_023Do you remember that game I’ve worked on for over a year to Platinum? I was supposed to get it done this year, and yet I have not. Yeah I bet you don’t, because why would you? You don’t care. Chris doesn’t care. I care for some reason only God knows. I have one trophy left to obtain in Diablo III for PlayStation 3, which requires a collection of $5 million gold. While upgrading my PlayStation 4 hard drive to something more acceptable, it dawned on me that I should work on this while my PlayStation 4 downloads ALL THE THINGS.

I moved the PS4 back upstairs, moved the PS3 downstairs (my God the PS3 is a beast, isn’t it?) and commenced the playing of Diablo III. It’s sad how much I have this game memorized, and I can’t believe I’m still playing it, but dammit I’ve come this far, I’m going to get this Platinum Trophy!

No, I did not get the trophy. However, when I started on Saturday, I had 4 million gold. As of last night, I had 4.5 million. If I focus, and ignore everything else I need to do, I will get this done this week. Once that Trophy ding happens, I will drop the controller like a hot potato, do a dance, and then export my characters out of the game to bring into Reaper of Souls. It would be so nice to play an Act I’m not as familiar with.

The plan was to Platinum in that version of D3 as well, but now I’m not so sure. It requires a lot of rift running. Or is it questing? I don’t remember, only that I have to do 500 of rifts or quests. Maybe I have time to harvest 5 million gold. But 500 quests? Pshaw.

Oh who am I kidding, I know I’ll at least try. I’m pathetic like that when it comes to Platinum Trophies. I’m no Greg Miller or Colin Moriarity, but if I feel like I can get the Trophies, I’ll always try to make time for them.

In case you were dying to know, I won’t give the same treatment to Just Cause 3. I’m so terrible at the Challenges, that’s not an option. I just want to watch Medici burn…
