How Difficult do you Think Trophy Hunting Will Be in 1.5?

There are two ways trophies are usually handled with remasters. Either they reward them for pretty much everything, leading to you getting pretty much all the trophies just by playing normally (The first Sly game literally gives you two trophies for beating the final boss)
The other is where the developers presume expertise on the player's part, so there are very few trophies for main gameplay bits, and instead they are rewarded for technical or difficult things.
Personally, I could see KH1 being very hard, and CoM being somewhat frustrating (because 'get all cards' is almost definitely a trophy, and getting Ultima Weapon is pure luck)
I think we can all agree that Days is going to be pathetically easy, however.
Unless they throw a curve ball. Like watch the movie 20 times. Or say Days is the best game in the series with a straight face.

 

There's still distinct difference between difficulty beyond just player skill and knowledge. If the hardest trophy to earn is Beat the Final Boss, and the Journal is more or less ignored (which it might be, because there's no completion tracking like in future games) then it will be easier than if, say, they ask for stuff like 'Beat Sephiroth in under a minute and a half'

 

...

 

I pretty much agree with you, but I think the Kh1FM trophies being difficult and the Re: Com trophies being tedious will bring balance to the Days trophies being easy. And even if they made you watch the scenes a lot, the button pushing to start the movie wouldn't be nearly as much as you do when you play the other games.

 

It could go either way.. I think they are experimenting with the game, and are not acustumed to making trophies... I think most of the trophies will be story related, maybe some easter eggs that will link us to the future (like mentioning Roxas on a Chain or KH 1 trophy.. or calling "another boy with a key" , etc.. when you turn into a heartless or when you go to twilight town).
The side games of KH are really boring I hate the gummy ships.. if a lot of trophies go to this I probably wont get platinum on KH.. and that would be a bomer....

I can see 2 trophies being unlocked by deafting sephiroth.. one like "The screat battle" or "One winged angel" and another for getting all Keyblades (as you get a Keyblade from wining, and probably will be the last one, or maybe Ultima)... don't know if they gonna give us "time related trophies" because it is something that should be on the original game (the aspect of counting time) if it weren't they would have a lot of problem to add it only for one trophy.

The WORST part of this is that I DO BEALIVE that there will be trophies for EVERY difficulty, but for some reason ALL remakes I ever play demand you to playthrough all difficulties, I would be awesome if we could just play once in the highest difficulty and unlock all trophies, or maybe 2 playthroughs at best.

As much I love Chain of memories getting 100% of the cards will be challenging.. I guess i never did it, whithout the trophies there isn't as much motivation to do it.

Days will be piece of cake.

Obvious trophies for KH1FM would be to defeat Xemnas/Sephiroth/Ice Titan/Kurt Zisa, beat the game on Proud, complete all Gummi Ship missions, completing the tournaments, synthesize everything, Trinities, Dalmations, etc. But as far as difficulty goes, I have a feeling that there are going to be trophies for the Mushroom Heartless: collect all seven spell arts from the White Mushrooms, pick up a Mystery Mold from a Black Truffle (or perhaps defeating one within a certain time), juggle a Rare Truffle 100 times without it hitting the ground, and (as below61 was doing) hit a Pink Agaricus 100 times in a single round of Stop.

Now while White Mushroom and Black Truffle ones wouldn't be so bad, perfectly juggling a Rare Truffle is a pain in the ass. I can't say much on the Pink Agaricus because I've never played FM.

 

Do you really think that they'll have a trophy for every single challenge in KH1 though?
They don't USUALLY do that in games.

 

Even though they don't do it in most games... if you look into KH trophies from the DS games you will see that they are VERY hard and time consuming to achieve... and almost everything counts towards achive new trophies.

 

If anything the trophies for RECOM would be:

Defeat certain bosses
Get a key to reward card
Enter all key to reward rooms
Complete Sora's story
Complete Riku's story
Complete the game on any difficulty
Complete game in proud mode
Get every organization Xiii enemy card (including Ansem ) in Sora's story mode
Get every battle card
Get every enemy card
Your entire deck is premium cards
Obtain Gold card
Obtain Platinum card
Reach level 99 For Sora
Reach level 99 For Riku
Win a fight without getting a card nullified
get all slights

 

That's really a completely different beast.
And the trophies in BBS were FAR from hard.

 

I'd say getting all the trophies will be pretty difficult since there's so much extra stuff that can be done in kh1. On a sort of related note though, I wonder if critical mode will be added to the game now. It would pretty awesome if that happens :)

I think that trophies will be rewarded based on accomplishments in the journal, and only one or two other things, like the Premium Cap in KHFM for instance. The Premium Cap is not required to complete the journal, but the Pink Agaricus challenge is definitely something we can expect to see a trophy for.

The reason I say that they will be based on the journal is that the journal basically covers all of the extras, and once you're completed it there is nothing more to do.


I for one am dreading having to complete the Re:CoM journal for a second time for a trophy. I've had Re:CoM since around the time it came out and have yet to complete the journal. I've been putting it off for so long because of just how a tedious of a task it is.


The Pink Agaricus challenge gets progressively easier the more you do it, so having to do that a second time won't be as painful, but it will still be a challenge.



All in all, I am not that interested in the trophies, because I complete the journal for every save file just because I feel the need to, so I will probably have most of, if not all, the trophies through that alone, and if that's the case I would say we won't see the need to hunt for that many trophies.

 

Gotta say, I feel like that might be how they handle trophies... but I'm really hoping it's not ._.
I've never been one for completely the journals. KH2's was downright massive, to the point where I've spend countless hours just making slow dents into all the stuff you need to do in that game.
Meanwhile, I've always been terrible at the mushroom minigames in KH1, so I'm not looking forward to that...
and Re:Com is just tedious, yeah.

 

I'm not saying that the trophies will be awarded for completing a section in the journal or something, but just for doing something like finding all puppies or getting all of the reports, which just so happen to also be a part of the journal.

Really? It never really occurred to me that the KH2 journal is big. Then again I've done it so many times everything just feels routine now.

 

It didn't?
From all those skateboarding missions, to getting certain scores on retrying minigames, it's easily the meatiest KH game
Oh, and I just realized that I was including Gummi missions, though they don't count towards the journal...
