For anyone who's still playing (hard to believe all of you would be over this already), Atlus is doing a Halloween event this weekend that gives free Black World Tendency to anyone who logs into the server. This can be a good or bad thing depending on what you're trying to do in each world, sure, but I may as well point it out.

I logged in and out a couple times to get to Pure Black, then went into 1-1 and pushed Black Phantom Miralda off a cliff. Got myself that nifty Brushwood set while I was there-- good thing too, since I'm told it disappears if you don't nab it. Tomorrow is Satsuki.

Yeah, I told my roommate about Atlus doing that, but he can't take advantage, since he's been playing on the Japanese copy of the game he brought from home.


I keep telling myself I'll get back to this game, but trying to get the platinum in Uncharted 2 has been on the forefront of my mind (since my roommate basically said he'd probably have to new game+ Demon's Souls three times before he can platinum it, and I don't have that kind of time).

Why do you have to platinum the game to play it? Play the fucking game to play the fucking game.

DON'T RUIN MY IMMERSION, DENI :argh:

PS: I don't give a fuck about platinum awards and stuff :-\

I think most people here don't care that much about achievements. Some people will go out of their way to complete them for games they like, maybe even just tolerate, but I've never heard of anyone avoiding games they don't feel they can get all the achievements for.

That's just silly and dumb.

I never said I was avoiding the game because I couldn't get all the trophies. I LIKE Demon's Souls. A lot actually. It's just I like Uncharted 2 a lot more, and I'd rather go out of my way to get the platinum in Uncharted 2 than play Demon's Souls at the moment.

I was just saying, or trying to say, that I don't plan on trying to platinum Demon's Souls, no matter how much I like it, after seeing all the hell my roommate is going through trying to get all the materials to make the weapons (or needing multiple playthroughs to get all the miracles and magic).

I don't get where you guys are getting the fact that I won't play the game because I can't platinum it. :/

You (inadvertently) stated you wouldn't go back to it because, as your friend pointed out, it would take several playthroughs to get a platinum trophy, and you don't have that kind of time. Especially if you were busy getting that pesky platinum in Uncharted 2. Maybe you didn't mean it, but the fixation on platinums insinuated it.

Though, if you wanna get technical, only one person directly addressed you while the others followed with generalized statements. Huzzah lack of specification!

Glad to see you haven't gone off the deep end with achievements, though.

Yeah, now I see that what I wrote didn't entirely convey what I meant to say.

I know miles and myself both had issues with the ink on the guide being shoddy, and now atlus realizes it too.

Demon's Souls

Get yourself a new one.
