I didn’t think I’d be doing another update this quickly but the latest event happened to have two of the Pokemon I was missing so that worked out really well. I finally caught my first Diancie and as a result got Mega Diancie. I also rounded up the last Zangoose I needed and my first Mega Alakazam so now I got the Gold Mega Evolution badge! One more step to ranking up all of the badges, but I’ve still got a whiles to go on that.
I finally got my next gold badge! Purifying 500 Pokemon definitely took a while and cost a ton of stardust (Over 1 million) but it was definitely worth it to get closer to all Platinums. I need to purify another 500 so that’s going to take an extremely long time but I’ll have finished doing that at some point. In the meantime I maxed out several more Pokemon. Just one more for Sinnoh (Spiritomb) and then you can expect another Pokemon Go update coming up. Gotta keep catching them all!
I now have the Platinum trophy for this game! Definitely a quick turnaround but I guess that’s it for this game now. Once you have the platinum there isn’t much reason to go back to it.
I finally completed The Final Horizons! Truly a masterful DLC that reminds me just how amazing the Sonic games are. In particular Sonic Frontiers will always go down as one of the all time greatest games ever made. The music, the hype, the intensity, it has it all! I have played very few games with this level of stakes.
Now the DLC is getting infamous for how difficult it is. To be sure this is one of the hardest titles of all time now. Granted you can put the game on easy which makes all of the platforming easy although the bosses will still be difficult. I stuck to it on normal though and it took many hours but I was able to pull it off. You really have to master those perfect parries though and also have to hope that the RNG goes in your favor.
Particularly with the Wyvern fight since that one really goes crazy. Ironically the actual final boss is much easier and only took me two tries to take down. All of the extra cinematics are excellent and it was a lot of fun to play as Knuckles and the crew. The fact that they are now permanent characters that you can play as in any world is great. It gives the game a whole lot of extra replay value and I didn’t even play the new 2D levels.
It feels immensely satisfying to finally complete this one to the point where I would say it is the highlight of 2023 for me. Nothing’s going to realistically be able to top this. Of course it’s all good if you end up completing this on easy instead because it can be hard to set aside 10-20 hours to try and complete this one. I will acknowledge that the lack of check points and how long it is per attempt can be a bit much at times. While the game is super difficult in a fair way, I’d prefer shorter bursts than having to watch the cinematics every time and do the extra level parts.
All in all I doubt we will ever see a DLC quite this good again. I also hope they really speed up the path to Sonic Frontiers 2 right away! Sonic is still the greatest video game series of all time and trust me, this game will not let you forget it!
I’ve finally got the final Hoenn Pokemon! Probably will be a few years or so until I complete the next region but definitely ready to see how that goes. The adventure’s always continuing after all!
I finally completed the whole post game in Knighthood! Ultra Karnage has been defeated. In the end that means I conquered the whole story content in 6 months since I only started in February. Not to toot my own horn but in general most players don’t even come close to that in over a year and to date it is a point that has stumped many players in the game. I’ve been smashing all kinds of free to play records on this one! (Pay to win folks have beaten him quicker but that’s different) Feels good!
I’ve finally made it to Level 60! The highest level in the whole game so that’s pretty hype. It’s definitely been a long journey and this has been a fun game to the side of Pokemon Go. Like that game this one has enough content to keep you busy for a while even after you’ve beaten the story. There is a post game story after the story I’m still working through though, even after being max level it’s a bit too difficult to take all of those out yet though so I need better gear.
I now have the Platinum trophy! Woohooooo lesss goooo. Always feels good to get another platinum. That last trophy of growing the plants was certainly a grind but in the end the challenge was conquered!
I finally got the Platinum trophy! Woohoo, this one took a while. It’s also a milestone as my 50th platinum. So definitely fun and while this means I probably won’t be playing this one again for a long while, I got the full journey here.
I now have the platinum trophy! Definitely didn’t take too long since beating the game did most of the work there but always fun to add another one to the collection. Might be a little longer until the next one but I’ve already got a game that I’m eyeing as the next target.
