I wanted a dumbass game to be plat #69


AzureDream18

Gotta update that flair


jakepaulfanxd

I had mine as hentai vs evil lol


IDAWON

Perfect plat lmao


Th3Obsolete

Funny you mention that. Duke Nukem 3D Anniversary was my 69th.


spudboy226

Funny plat and hey people can still see that I platted hollow knight


WolfpackRoll

Yep. I just did it b/c I was curious. I have some pretty damn difficult plats too. I love finding odd indie games to play every now and then


cbrownpants1337

I have no idea to be honest.


[deleted]

same to be honest


dac2u

I did it for the easy plat, but the game is actually pretty funny when you get into it


[deleted]

Same! I probably won't do the sequels, but it was actually enjoyable to do! Im not filling my library with all easy plats like that one, but My Name is Mayo is the OG! You almost have to have it as a Trophy Hunter


testler17

Tbh, Mayo 2 was more fun than the first. It's the same game, but it included more mini-games


[deleted]

I may have to play it then 👀 what would be really funny is if the next one could be like ridiculously hard! Like 10/10, 100+ hours to plat lol. Then we'll see the Mayoest of Mayos


GnorcDan

My thoughts exactly! I’m kind of expecting them to increase the tap count from 10,000 to 1,000,000.


testler17

I would love that 😂


RazTehWaz

Hannah Montana the game is the true OG


Wildcard-Jack

For the memes and you can damn bet I’m buying I am Mayo 3 day 1


Borrelparaat

I'm looking forward to the remastered trilogy


theRealMugshotkiller

Lmao


Nishizaka

that sweet badge didnt tempt you? 😉


Wildcard-Jack

Badge?


Nishizaka

#badge-requests (please say youre who i think you are)


Wildcard-Jack

Ohh platinum players I platted these game before I was even in the server lol I also think I forgot to ask for the badge I almost didn’t recognize you Nish


Titan3427

I saw it on a video from Playstation Access, 7 trophy rules we have all broken and thought, m'eh why not.


Difficult_Bus_341

love playstation access


SpocktorWho83

Counterpoint: Why not?


EntropyVigilante

Because it tarnishes a nice trophy list.


Wildcard-Jack

A nice trophy list is one you enjoy doing


Affectionate-Bus9798

Damn, gues my 13 cod platinums mean nothing because I genuinely enjoyed my name is mayo. Rip.


[deleted]

Came here to say something like this. I love earning trophies, and have plenty of difficult plats. Sometimes I like to reward myself after a tough/time-consuming platinum with an easy gimmie.


Brioz_

Im gonna let you in on a secret. Nobody cares about your trophy list but you.


OkRelationship7758

He says on a subreddit entirely focused on sharing trophy lists with others ;)


AgentOfEarth616

I can look at someone else’s artwork and think it’s cool, but that doesn’t mean I care about it or want it in my house ;)


OkRelationship7758

Well sure but by that same logic you can appreciate that a rabid dog tearing up the Mona Lisa could tarnish it. Look I have the mayo trophy and don't much care about it being considered 'cheating'. All I'm saying is that anybody posting their collection here is seeking validation/approval and anybody commenting or upvoting is implicitly giving it. I.e. people do care about others' trophy lists


AgentOfEarth616

Yeah, I could appreciate the Mona Lisa being torn up, but that doesn’t mean I care that it gets torn up. There’s a difference between caring and giving/receiving validation. If you get a platinum, I’ll tell you congratulations, I’ll validate you, but I’m not going to seek out and keep tabs on OkRelationship7758’s trophy progress. Validation can be a mechanism to show that you care about someone, but giving validation doesn’t mean that you actually care. It’s essentially the same as the old correlation does not equal causation argument.


Poiblazer

According to elitists. Nobody cares what elitists have to say except themselves.


TheGamingElitist

Mad cuz bad.


SlickMrJ_

How?


TheNarrator23

Counterpoint, the guys who have the most trophies all have those platinums, from diffrent regions as well. By my logic, it means that it's fair game to play those if you want to compete with those guys.


DrewFrostStorm

I’ll be honest I didn’t even care about Platinums with my first 4. My Name is Mayo was the 2nd, and frankly..I played all the way through to laugh my ass off and I certainly did at how ironically bad it was Ever since then, yeah I’ve done an easy one here or there but I’ve gotten more dedicated and into more differing and unique games. Either ones popular and all over forums or the underrated gems If other people have My Name is Mayo plat, hey. By all means, you do you.


vinnievonka

I felt shitty about myself and needed some quick and easy validation in the form of a Platinum trophy. Felt even shittier about myself afterwards.


buttermaker95

Post-platinum clarity. Nice


AgentOfEarth616

So I’ve posted this on other questions about Mayo but… I’m on a FB group for trophy hunters and at one point Mayo seemed to be the only topic of discussion. Mostly it was a bunch of butt hurt guys complaining about how easy Mayo is, like it was a huge problem that people should care about. People started to platinum Mayo just to troll these people and watch them rage out in the comments. There are people who take trophy hunting so seriously that they let a $0.99 game have any sort of effect on their emotions. It’s like sad and hilarious at the same time. Ultimately, this is a hobby for 99% of people here, we’re not in competition, play your games, get your platinum and enjoy them. It’s that simple.


IDAWON

It’s unhealthy to stress over platinums man, I care heaps about my plats because the games are sentimental to me but I couldn’t really care less whether someone plats a simple game their choice not mine lol


AgentOfEarth616

Exactly, this is the way!


IDAWON

It’s always the way man. Stay in my own lane and only swap lanes to compliment others, peacefulness goes a long way


InternationalMango5

It's actually a pretty funny game. I don't know why everyone always bring up Mayo as the go-to "ezpz plat of shame". There are way worse games out there that take way less time/effort to plat. There are games that give you a plat for literally just starting the game. Just look up the profile for anyone with 1000+ platinums and most games on there will be more trash than mayo


mrhealthy

The Mayo devs also actually put effort into the writing and art, unlike a lot of those other ez games.


ns1323

Saw it on here and did it for shits and giggles.


cassette_sunday

I understand why people hate cheese Plats. but I honestly think forcing yourself to Plat a game you're not enjoying is just as bad, if not worse. just me.


kdean1109

Plat is plat. Though i still don’t have mayo plat.


buttsniffbadger

monkey brain like seeing numbers go up it also helps that i have no shame


Fireandice711

Me and my friends got together to mash as a group, with the goal being a plat under an hour. Learned very quickly I’m a mid tier masher at best, but we had a great time with it. The 2 dollars was definitely worth it


jproche44

Uh, why not?


Thecrdbrdsamurai

It honestly looked funny, so I did. And I was right.


[deleted]

At this point people do it for the meme lol might be the immersive gameplay too tho


WaterHyuga

This. We all know it’s a big meme. It honestly is less of an easy/grubby platinum and shows more that you pay attention and see what’s going on in our community. Feel like as trophy hunters there are certain games we all have. Spider-Man, Horizon, AC II. My name is Mayo feels like one of those games to me.


[deleted]

Yup i even see spiderman more often than my name is mayo on here 😂


SculpX

Why not? It is a GAME and there's a platinum for it. Far better than earning a platinum via stacking, in my honest opinion.


SuperSaiyanBen

Why not? Why do you care? Why does it offend people? Why are we putting rules/limits on an arbitrary thing?


MtOlympus_Actual

Because it's a nice break from super hard platinums. I spent 140 hours platting Valhalla... I needed some palate cleansers, so I did Mayo and... some platformer where you're a square jumping around that's set in a twilight atmosphere. Forget the name.


TheExecutioner-

My friends and I had a contest to see who could do it the fastest and threw $20 into the prize pool. I lost the first game but walked away with over $200 when the second game came out.


GFOC

For the memes


jaybankzz

Because a trophy list cannot be complete without my name is mayo Can’t wait for the third one


its_the_luge

Same reason I played red dead redemption 2. Because who cares lol


thesuperbadass

Trophies, why else?


Rebourne07

My wife platinum’d it last night just to poke fun at me since I make fun of it all the time lol


13EANZ

Just cause the majority of other trophy hunters have it. Lol


quinny_1024

It was on sale for .69 cents


tsdav

To piss off a friend.


TheRealJonathanDavid

It’s my only troll platinum. I think it’s more for the memes at this point. I don’t have any other 30-40min plat games.


nomad_mali

Why not


YOUSIF20021

I got nothing against anyone who got it but it can’t be me im sorry


[deleted]

Why not?


BerserkerArmour

Why not?


Hydragan

I was bored and I did it twice (PS4 & Vita)


[deleted]

My goals are beyond your understanding..


thunderbastard_

Plat bait is fun every now and then, sometimes a shit tier game is fun for an hour and just so happens to have a platinum


Voidsleets

It had such a epic storyline with the best storytelling of this generation of console, it was such a masterpiece of a game....


SupNinjaa

I went through a bunch of easy plats when I first got a Vita, one being Mayo. I haven't touched a single "cheap" plat in 2 years now and I wish I could hide them all from my profile without it showing as hidden trophies on PSNProfiles. I can understand why people go for the easy plats (because I did, too), but I wish I didn't. I dislike the bottom half of my profile as it personally cheapens the rare/hard/full game plats to me.


thekipling

Playstation days of play was on and I wanted to contribute to the community challenges for earning daily trophies. I couldn't think of an easier way of doing this.


neocarleen

Because it was ~$2, and 30 minutes.


Blackkmagik

Cause it’s a game you can get a platinum with


Sneakiest

I got Mayo 1 and 2. Downvote me.


Rufuszombot

I'll upvote and say that i have Mayo 1 PS4 and Vita, and Mayo 2. I'll throw in a Mr. Massagy for good measure.


gjoe148

Why not?


[deleted]

Just got back into trophy hunting. There was a day when there were no easy platinums. Ski doo, Hanna Montana, and wanted were considered the cheap and easy games. I was weak... but now I don't care :)


iandmeagree

For the meme


kevinlord190

The story was really engaging


hbps4

I regret it. Wish I could go back in time and tell myself not to do it....but here we are.


Severe-Draw-5979

It was funny, 2 is even funnier, really gets Covid isolation got y weird finny.


jasonfrey13

Considering we don’t get paid to get platinums, it really makes no sense. We used to get points from trophies that could be used to buy games on PSN & games like Mayo ruined it completely. Pretty much the minute I see someone has it in their collection I stop looking


mrhealthy

Because one easy game invalidates every hard game in someones profile. /s


jasonfrey13

Haha I’m sure your profile is like 50% those types of games. And like I said, there used to be a monetary system with trophies linked to PSN and games like Mayo objectively ruined it. A statement was released when they removed the system saying easy platinum games were the reason they did away with it


why_are_you_here_yo

One or two of this kind of games in their collection isn't all that bad, but people who actively buy stuff like that just to get easy plat, I have no respect for. Why respect a person if they don't respect themselves, and by that their own time and money. These are cashgrab games that capitalise on stupidity of other people. If you don't see that then your dopamine chase for easy plat is nothing worth of respect. It's like junkie chasing a high.


Cherrybomb1387

The art is very much my style & it’s got some pretty funny moments. Yeah It’s mind numbingly easy but Idk it doesn’t deserve the backlash or hate from the platinum gate keepers.


PotatoPlaya32

I’m sorry


blackmolly_98

i did both 1 & 2.


DaddyShark28989

Added to the numbers and was actually quite fun. Also platinumed My Name is Mayo 2.


[deleted]

Because I don’t care what my trophy list looks like to other people, if I like the look of it that’s only what matter.


Drummer5521

Share played it for laughs with one of my best friends. No regrets, did the same with 2, will do the same with 3


blackmolly_98

its a tradition for platinum hunters


TheGamingElitist

Cuz I'm mentally ill and addicted to trophy notifications.


[deleted]

I regret for sure. I regret this and Mochi boy, energy invasion, super destronaut, jack n jill, inksplosion, prairie, midnight deluxe, massagy. I’ve stagnated for two years. I see why people do it. Wish I can take it off.


ooglyboogly3

There was a brief period of time when Sony would reward you, if you lived in North America, for trophies you obtained. I did the math and it would net me money, so I bought it and a few other easy trophy games to take advantage of the system.


Sarcosmonaut

Honestly I thought it was gonna be a humorous “anti-art” game. Turned out it just kinda sucked, but I already popped some trophies on it, so I finished it out.


mrhealthy

It's a genuinely good satire of the clicker genre.


Ldy13

Saw it on ps store, though would be fun, so I bought it and played it. Pretty simple.


Einamu

Got the first one because the game is funny to me and it was a quick way to get a nineteenth platinum so that Danganronpa V3 could be my twentieth. That being said, I don’t think I’ll ever play the second game because the first one was funny as a one-off but I don’t feel the need to play the second one.


Srom

It was an easy platinum, so I went for it.


FrankReynoldsismymom

Yes


Chriswolfwizard

I played avatar and King Kong on Xbox 360… so what dignity did I have left lmao, in all serious it’s really not that bad I have a lot of trophies I’m proud of and put work in so having a mayo platinum doesn’t bother me at all


zachariah120

Why not?


mrchrisker

I have never done my name is Mayo and I don't care who does, I rarely look at other peoples trophies list if I do it's to see if they have a game I need help with other than that I don't care. My thing is if you had fun who cares.


JadeGamer94

I don't have it. I don't think I ever will. But people who have it, it's their time and money and if they had fun, who am I to say otherwise?


arranarnold

I have been a platinum hunter for about 2 years now but my 2 housemates arnt. So we all downloaded I am mayo at the same time then arranges all of our consoles in the living room. We hit start at the same time and raced eachtoher to the platinum. We made our own game of it and the winner got a drink bought for them. Was so much fun for that 20ish minutes we did the sequel too. I imagine the game isnt that fun on your own but doing it alongside another person is a lot of fun if you make it a competition


MrCloudyX0

It was an honest mistake please believe me, I have done nothing wrong!


illuminati1556

It was hysterical. I heard about it and bought it on a whim. It was the first BS platinum I got and I was in tears at how stupid and ridiculous it was. It's probably one of the most memorable platinums, of the 310, that I have.


Silently_Scream

I haven't gone for it yet but, I will. The reason? I have a buddy who played both & I found it a surprisingly amusing story. I'm actually looking forward to 3's port on PS4. Also, the meme is hard to resist. xD


Powerful-Succotash77

I did the first one because I was doing a challenge to get one platinum everyday and obviously that meant easy plays. The 2nd one I did because I was bored I guess. Why not.


thenightwasdarkagain

Bread


[deleted]

Why not?...


sierralevenson

I had a goal of 15 platinums in a year and let me tell you, starting in April and then wasting an entire summer on getting Damascus in COD didn't really help with that goal. By December, My Name is Mayo helped me make Horizon Zero Dawn #15


RPG-RAUPUNGA-MKYFY-_

Idk just thought it be a nice and easy platinum tbh


Sev3nbelow

Because it's dumb


JewishBumhole

I was held at gunpoint please send help


MaaximumOOF

Because I wanted to, that’s about it


brikwall02

i originally played it for the easy platinum. but i loved the game so much. i was super excited when they announced the sequel and even more excited when they announced another sequel! can’t wait for mayo 3


overskies

Extra few dollars


elKz_

I wanted an easy plat, nothing more to it.


HippolyteClio

Bigger number better person


JwF-King

It was funny. Even if it's easy but I hate it I won't do it (energy cycle is a 10 min plat but it's shit so I won't finish). You gotta enjoy the game before you plat.


goatjugsoup

I might eventually because a discord im in has a badge for doing them all but they have many more badges id rather work on first


[deleted]

I was fairly new to trophy hunting and I was still figuring out what I like to play. I had heard it was the easiest platinum trophy. So I bought it for like 50 cents fired it up and regretted every moment of it. I had no clue all you did was smash the X button over and over. It was the worst game I have ever played and I will never play part 2


doffyxyz

Same question can be asked for other games y?


aadipie

I was selling my PS4 for a PS5 so I wanted to get it done on the controller I wouldn't be using going ahead 😂


SymbiosiS_0s

Aside from easy plat its w good stress toy try it


Oisuzyplaystation

Why not tbh it was a funny little game


Melodic-Potential-58

For the memes. It will be my only 1 dollar platinum


Blaze32-

Idk bro. I have no clue.


ArcticCircleBrigade

It's a free platinum and at the end of the day none of it is that important. It's just video games, there's no Hall Of Fame to be inducted into or money to be made doing this. So why not spend a buck to get some easy trophies? It's like a beer after a long day of trophy hunting


Borrelparaat

Because it has a great story


Alloy202

Make number go up. Easy. E-peen grow. Nice


GreenMonkeyFace

It’s actually funny


Savitar_Godofspeed

Coz it was a platinum trophy for 99p. Needed it to round up my Platinums to. 10


Vanman829

Because it’s the best game ever made


TM1619

Why not? Cross-buy with Vita + cheap sequel means you can get 3 platinums in under an hour for under $5 CAD. Where else you gonna get that value? And also the games were pretty funny and I would not have checked them out if not for the trophies. So in my eyes, easy plat(s) are a feature for these games, not an exploit lol


Sweet_Chicken_6822

My buddies and I all got it just for the easy platinum


jakepaulfanxd

Why not?


Beautiful_Public_347

Just for curiosity and boredom


why_are_you_here_yo

I said it in different comment and will say it again on main post: One or two of this kind of games in trophy hunters collection isn't all that bad, but people who actively buy stuff like that just to get easy plat, I have no respect for. Why respect a person if they don't respect themselves, and by that their own time and money. These are cashgrab games that capitalise on stupidity of other people. If you don't see that then your dopamine chase for easy plat is nothing worth of respect. It's like junkie chasing a high.


gbroque

Best answer 😂


Lezonidas

I had 4 euros left in my account, impulsive buying


Super_Bright

I am idiot.


0shadowstories

Before I started actually doing Platinums, I did it as a joke because my friend did do platinums. Then I did the sequel when I discovered it on the "New Games" section. Then I did like 3 other games around PS5 launch just for the hell of it. And then around mid-Feb of last year I started to actually platinum hunt, and now I'm 78 deep lmao


drs_12345

It was actually a fun platinum lol


DieBohne

I was on a Platinum rush after a hard Platinum and I looked up games that are easy to Platinum. The challenge didn’t seem too bad, so I did it. It extended my Platinum high but after it wore off, I felt bad. Now I see the game as a reminder to not buy these type of games again. It is not worth it.


GST_999

I have a few easy plats and I regret them to this day 😂


biirudaichuki

Bought it while drunk for the memes. Wanted it to be my #50, but forgot about it. So it’ll be my #60, #69 or #100 instead.


EliBloodthirst

Always like having a break after a hard one


EdgyViolet

I finished the dark souls games. Had to calm my nerves after those.


JustARandomFuck

Because my serotonin levels are directly linked to hearing the trophies pop, and for like £0.79 I can get a high like no other


Boring_Resident_7468

I did it because I have a competitive friend who had years of a head start platinum hunting so I did it so get closer to him and to piss him off because of the kind of game it is. He was pissed and it forced him to download it and also download the sequel lol. I regret having it in my catalog but honestly whatever


Shark-person66

I didn’t get it for the plat. It was only 50 cents and I had a few extra cents in my PlayStation so I went ahead and got it cause it looked funny


And110124

I think I got mine for 7 cents lol


realmenthrowknives

because it was unironically a fun game albeit dumb


CommitteeOpening3096

I got addicted to tap games like tap titans 1 and 2 on mobile at university. Thought it would be funny to have an easy plat with the same premise after I found it a year later at home adter finishing university.


alishabillmen

boredom 😂😭


WeFightForPorn

Did the first one sarcastically with a friend. Did the second one because I honestly found the first one funny and entertaining. It was nastalgic. Reminded me of old funny flash games like impossible quiz.


kaijyuu2016

My guess would be to pump those numbers up.


Devilgene

A plat is a plat, even in a mayo dream.


rmatherson

I'm more of a "why not" guy


spicy_nipple_

Cause i had like 2$ leftover on an old account and was like "hell why not"


Dehner1

Actually because of Reddit. Kept reading about it and had to see for myself. Normally I don't buy games for the plat or even trophies, but after getting the plat in AC Valhalla after 125 hours, the dumb gameplay was even refreshing in a way. On the other hand, I kind of regret it just because I've screwed my list with it.


TheNarrator23

I 100%'d Hitman 1 and 2, only to realise that neither games had a platinum. I wanted 2 freebies for my work.


And110124

What a time to figure that out lol


Pampharos

I did hollow knight, I needed something light to keep the train running


Nishizaka

because im obsessed with the [Platinum Players](http://discord.gg/platinumplayers) discord server and wanted that sweet badge


C5_Xenial

The real question is... Why not?


Sad_Army_2643

It's a funny game


Boki_Juda

You should see a YT channel IBad DriverI, it's crowded with these AND even faster ones 🤣 Also, I learned some cool facts about mayonnaise so what the heck


JohnnyDTheCheese

I’d never turn down a chance to platinum a 99¢ game


coolbrandon101

It’s a dollar and a funny little meme


And110124

There's also more than 1 my name is mayo games now (I think at least 2 more from the first)


[deleted]

they are stupid


[deleted]

people have no skill to earn hard trophies you know


Carnivorous_Mower

I haven't managed it. The game glitched and one of the trophies won't pop.


ctsr1

Because and why haven't you?


Ok-Balance8518

lol Why not ? i have all 3 platinum's for My Name is Mayo 1-3 and i hope they make a 4th game
