@RogerRoger Thankfully if I get a plat I'm not too fussed if extra content ends up knocking down the percentage so I never feel tempted to buy dlc unless I really want it. Although I freely admit it can be a small extra factor and probably gave me a little extra incentive like when the Terminator dlc went in a sale and I decided to bite. I think you will probably be safe with the Horizon dlc, I feel Sony has really nailed a nice balance to their first-party trophy lists being reasonably achievable.

That's probably the healthiest way of looking at it, just allowing any discrepancy to help you make any decisions that you're on-the-fence about. I'm envious of your ability to keep that in check (and hope that this conversation doesn't make you look more closely at your incomplete plats)!

And you're right about Sony's first-party offerings, too. I'm hopeful that Burning Shores reignites my enthusiasm for the game (pun semi-intended) so that I can stick out the platinum.

It's funny because Spider-Man Remastered shows as a 'B' on PSNprofiles despite me having the plat and all the dlc but because I haven't done the two NG+ trophies and lots of people clearly have it's ranked lower. Whereas I have things like that tennis game which was on PS+ where I only have several trophies but because there must be lots who tried it with next to none it's an 'A'. It goes to show it's kind of silly to put too much emphasis or importance on these things but think it ties in to my slightly competitive nature.

Sounds a lot like how I've started to notice the rarity percentage on certain trophy lists, and think that it'd be cool to be one of the 0.1% or 0.2% who've earned a particularly elusive platinum!
