That counter measures one was the last one I needed too, small bit of a pain but didn't take too long thankfully. Re: the DLC trophies, that's the same for all games, the plat only applies to the base game trophies. It also leads to that annoying Platinum trophy but saying something like 88% complete. Grrr.

The only time I feel nagged by having less than 100% completion is if it's for a game I really like (and therefore own the DLC for). I can't get annoyed by not completing a task I technically don't have or don't love enough to get the rest. At least the platinum trophy shows you have at least all the trophies for the base game. The same can't be said for X Box where the achievement system feels designed to guilt completionists into purchasing DLCs. You can have 1000 GS which is the equivalent of a platinum trophy but it doesn't actually mean you got all the base game trophies, it could mean you got the DLC trophies with some base game ones still missing but when all is sad and done it adds up to 1000 GS. In other words, it's pretty much all or nothing.

I have the Ultimate edition for Control so I'll probably clean up the DLC trophies.

Might play for a bit today and see if I can mop things up using a guide.

So does the count go over 1000 GS? Or you get nothing for achievements after that? Apart from satisfaction and pride, of course

The base game is 1000 GS the DLC is 390 GS so 1390 GS in total.

And done. Now showing 100%. Dunno how anyone figured out the solution to those cat statues.

Even went and did all the jobs for Ahti afterwards.

I have a question regarding auto popping for Control. I got the ultimate edition for PS5 free with PS+ and remember there being a bit of an outcry when it was announced the PS5 version would not be a free upgrade for PS4 owners.
As I have the Ultimate edition for free will I still be able to use my PS4 save file to auto pop trophies?

Potential-Monke

I believe PS4 saves of Control and incompatible with the PS5 so don't think you'll be able to auto pop the trophies. I wish the PS Store would differentiate between games I've purchased and games I've purchase but were also PS+! It says I can download the PS5 Ultimate Edition so i'm guessing I purchased it.

The Phantom Pain

That really sucks!!!
At least I know the game quite well so the road to platinum on the PS5 version should be quick but wow, what a bummer. I'll probs play it again down the line. Too many other games on em backlog to get through to be playing a game I only mildly liked from scratch.

You can turn on God mode on ps5 and breeze through it to get all trophies. I did this, did it the hard way on PS4 first time around though!

I picked up the Ultimate Edition in the Steam sale. It's one of the most enjoyable games I've played in a long time, I'm immersed in it. I don't know how I missed it last year, it's a game I hadn't heard much about. Delighted, I'd highly recommend it.

Potential-Monke

I hope the people who own the Second Sight and Psy-Ops games are paying attention to this!

CastorTroy

Are they similar?

I think a reason I liked this game so much is its similarity to the Infamous games which I really liked.

Potential-Monke

Very similar to what I remember of them, gameplay wise anyway. Guns & psy powers! Granted, they had more powers, but same gameplay idea. Both excellent games in their own right, not sure how they'd stand up today.
