How do you feel about Final Fantasy XIII's long trophy list? Do you think it's too long, short, hard, easy? Give me your opinion! FF XIII is available for both the XBOX 360 and PS3 however, I'm going to just discuss it here in the PlayStation part of the site simply because I have this game on the PS3
.
In case you don't know or haven't seen FF XIII's trophy list here's a link to them:
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]The trophy list looks simple, but in reality it can easily take 100+ hours to get them all. The easy ones are the ones that you acquire by simply playing through the game, like when you start each chapter a trophy appears.
Many people have stated that the game doesn't really start until you've beaten the game. This statement really is true. You'll be spending most of your time after the game working on completing missions and continuing/finishing your character's role levels. Not to mention the countless hours you'll be spending farming ingots for some extra cash
. However despite all this farming there's also benefits to playing out the rest of the story after the game (excluding trophies). There's areas in the game that are only accessible after beating the game, areas that, are stunningly beautiful and are worth visiting.
Overall it's a fun and long game, that has a nice little trophy set. The Platinum DOES take a long time to get, but that's just an extra benefit. You'll feel like you accomplished something when earning the FF XIII platinum.
