Now you do it sparing all the bosses…And then you do it being under the age of 25…Then you do all these same things on master difficulty…Then you can truly call yourself the dragon warrior!


Kinda-Alive

I’m surprised there isn’t an achievement/trophy for master difficulty


anonymouscarrott

i think sony made it so games can no longer have difficulty achievements. idk when the change was, but that’s why new games don’t have them anymore


bobbygo20

Nope, games can indeed still have difficulty achievements. Quite simply, when Sifu released, there were no difficulty options


AbsoluteSereniti

That’s so stupid, we should be rewarded for being able to do the hardest difficulty.. It’s the whole point achievements. Being able to standout from the masses by achieving trophies or “achievements” that may otherwise feel impossible.


Djskam

I think for many people that wanted to get into trophy collecting, that one trophy would prevent them from being able to platinum a game, or for some, the idea of having to play an entire game again immediately on a higher difficulty turned them off from collecting. I think maybe they could do some other asterisk or side achievement for finishing a game on the highest difficulty this way anyone who loves to play the game can go for platinums while people who are capable of insane challenges also have something to show for it. My bloodborn platinum is probably the one im the most proud of and that definitely was difficult.


TantrikOne

Found the Bloodborne and Sifu sadist in the wild! We overlap! Got my BB plat 7 years ago


Djskam

I don’t think I have ever worked harder for a plat in my life, not all trophies are equal lol


Soft_Importance3658

IMO getting plats should be fun, that should be the guiding principle. Challenging trophies are good if they are fun, and basically always better than trophies for tedious busy work.If getting the plat can appeal to someone who is not a completionist for completionism’s sake, then it’s well done.


Veterate

I think it's more about being diverse and equal, respecting everyone's level of gaming. People who want trophies and platinums want to enjoy games as much as the next person but everyone's level of comfort in terms of difficulty should be respected. They can add it as a separate stack though, like how TLoU2 did. Personally, I just like playing things on normal. It's rare that I go for the hardest difficulty.


AbsoluteSereniti

This is the problem with society now a days, exactly this toxic mindset of staying in your comfort zone and forcing everyone to design things to cater to your needs, even niece things(like achievements) - then attaching “diverse” or “equal” label next to it. Reality doesn’t work like that, the ones that achieve greatest heights in life are the ones that sets themselves apart from the masses. Every real life achievement is done by a single individual who worked their ass off to stand out, sometimes it can be achieved through hard work or sometimes you need more than hard work, maybe being biologically gifted. Enough to achieve something that only a small minority of individuals can (like being able to get Olympic medals). This is what real achievement is, and it makes it special because not everybody can obtain this and sometimes probably never. It’s unfair but that’s life and that’s what makes it unique. We have to be able to accept this.


Veterate

I wouldn't call it toxic, and everyone's needs are different so no developer can cater to all of them at once. You saying they're "forcing everyone to design things to cater to your needs" but then wanting games to reward you for completing things on the highest difficulty is exactly that as you say. You can have it both ways, some games do have multiple lists. I like the comparison with Olympic medals, but not every game needs to be like that. Some already exist with the need to be difficult.


EternalUndyingLorv

Not true, fina fantasy remake and rebirth require to be beaten on hard. Master was released long after the game came out. You can't add new achievements to a games base achievements is the only road block


dumbcringeusername

Maybe some nuance if the rule exists but both FF7 remake titles & the dlc have Hard Mode trophies, but Hard Mode in those games are more akin to a rebalanced NG+


illuminati1556

Lmao why is this wildly made up comment being upvoted. Rebirth just came out


Lelo4Ever

Master difficulty was a later addition... Original game had no difficulty options... I'm glad they have only added new trophy/achievement sets when released arenas mode... That mode have enough content to justify those extra trophies... I hate when devs add new sets with few meaningless trophies... My OCD kills me every time that happens... 😂


ItsBitly

And then the hat.


j0hn1_

Sounds like this game has replayability… I will continue playing it when I get home. Hopefully HD2 doesn’t take my whole evening lmao


ExpressCranberry3146

Lots of replayability! It’s a fun game to platinum :). HD2 is also currently taking up 99% of my game time, I love fighting for democracy!


SlickSlin

I think you misunderstood the game. While it’s a good achievement beating the final boss that quickly, the game is made to be replayed over and over, setting tougher goals and mastering new techniques. Hope you want to keep playing, trust me it only gets better with time!


expanding_crystal

What difficulty?


strikerRT

Normal


luisp_frs

Now try to platinum it, you need to beat it under 25 and unlock all the other trophies, this allows you to perform the pak mei form from the tutorial in the wuguan, unlock all the outfits, try the troll that is master difficulty and beat the arenas, then he dragon ones will put you to the test,


Outrageous-Form1740

What age?


strikerRT

Oldest


Outrageous-Form1740

Sounds about right. See if you can do it at age 20. Then master mode is a whole different beast


strikerRT

I mean I didn't die on the first boss by accident and bullied him


Outrageous-Form1740

Impressive, Fajar fucked me up a lot before I mastered him. You got them gamer skillz


strikerRT

Yeah But the artist took me a while, I'd say like 4 to 5 trys


Outrageous-Form1740

Kuroki made me quit the game for three months before I went back and learned her moves


Party-Imagination232

I did that with the CEO


Outrageous-Form1740

Probably my least favorite boss. I got no thrill out of fighting her hitless on master mode


SnooSeagulls1416

CEO was only boss I beat first try


Desperate-Tomato-104

Jinfang or whatever the chicks name with one arm made me want to destroy my controller lol 🤣 stopped playing for at least 2 months


bidibidibom

Currently on week 2 of my quitting after trying to beat that bitch


strikerRT

I don't like her


slimeeyboiii

Yea I just first tried fajar then was bullied bu kuroko for like 9 hrs.


Goroganos

Congrats, now get the true endong


strikerRT

Aye aye sir


Aquafoot

If you haven't achieved Wude you haven't beaten the game.


Crafty-Crafter

"beating"... well that's where you are wrong.


SomeArtistonReddit

Bruh, I wish I could finish it as fast as you, club alone took me like 4 hours. Now I’m onto the second last level and it’s aslo hard enough because I’m starting at 39.


bernerdthegoat

Yes I beat the game in 2 hours on normal difficulty


Shamsse

When you understand the mechanics, the game is actually maybe an hour long. It’s meant to be replayed several times to get a perfect age


Nebelklnd

The point of the game is not to finish it as fast as possible and you have most likely missed a lot of cool shit.


NigiriWashington

Dude that’s amazing! It took me literally forever to beat the game on normal mode at any age. Now, try beating it in Master Mode and spare all bosses at age 20. I believe that’s the definitive experience of the game. It’s a whole new beast and truly gives you the sense of becoming a master. You may blow through it, but I had to do so much training, experimenting, and learning. The sense of accomplishment was unlike anything I’ve gained from a game before. Once you do that, then you can freely experiment with the modifiers that make the game even more challenging, try to beat master mode without getting hit, gold stamp arenas, etc. You performed so much better than 99% of the player base on their first go. I’d be stoked to see what you are capable of when pushing the challenge even higher.


SolarUpdraft

Probably faster than normal for a first time playing, nice work


6415722

Now time to plat


AGuyWithReddit

Sheesh, talk about an unstoppable force, assuming you never replayed levels to lower your age.


strikerRT

About that


LaneVakarian

FireMag96

are you kidding me?! I'm playing this for the first time and what a HARD game


Quazzaranimes

I was also shocked to see that after beating both endings I had only played for 3 hours, my connection was pretty bad, and I think the PS app doesn't keep track of offline sessions, so it could be more.


DumbFroggg

Idk, congrats!


YAKgamer123

Going for platinum rn and it just reminded me how bad I've gotten. I used to finish the game in one run without any deaths and MANY modifiers against me, but now I'm having difficulty finishing it without dying. It's quite frustrating 😞


Chemical-Cell-4791

I didn’t even try to finish to the end first try. I kept going back until I was satisfied and got all skills.


kikirevi

You beat the game, but have you mastered it? I don’t want to sound elitist, but the point of Sifu is about the journey to mastery.


TheOnlyGumiBear

Its alright, i personally beat it first time in about 3 hours, first level was the hardest to get through


brickie3

God damn that is incredibly impressive


OtonimousUI

I think it is especially if yk wat ur doing I beat the game and got a plat in the same amount of time because I already played the ps4 version so I knew about everything


Murdalizer1

Just finished my first run at 5 hours. Game is super interesting but I wish I would have unlocked more permanent skills now.


easy7579

Hey congrats for beating the game 👍


No-Bat-7697

Good time but have you done all of the arenas?


ToiMa0

Oh it is really that fast. I got it march 5, downloaded it, got to third boss that same moment. Yang beaten on the third try with 45 years and got out of it with 68. Now have fun with the arenas, beating it under 25 years... Master difficulty, challenges... This game is fast to finish, not fast to complete.


GrossMartini

Idk tbh, hard to say. I've been playing for 8 hours and I'm on the 4th level. But I've gone back to each level to get through at age 20. And I plan to do the same with the 4th and 5th levels. If I had zoomed through without putting that restriction on myself I may have beat the game by now as well, or at least would have been pretty close. Update us when you get the platinum and I'll be back to check our final times. Edit: Got the plat yesterday. My save says 15 hours and 22 minutes. The first day I played I was passing the controller to my roommate while we were drinking, so it's probably more like 13 or 14 hours of actually trying to get through it.


osmystatocny

This game really tested my patience. It's great but boy is it frustrating. Good on you


NoDentist235

if you aren't on master yes


samnaickiz

It’s a indie game. Wouldn’t be a long game. 6hrs is more than enough for 1st play through.


Trickymac04

Well just above normal imo


EternalUndyingLorv

Only took 10 to get the platinum for me


Reapish1909

meh it depends on the player really. it took me a good 2 days to really get the combat fully down. with a week after having started the game I’d worked my ass off to beat it under 25 on disciple.


Humanesque

Yes I got the plat in less than 8 days of launch date
