[@hovari545]

Personally thats the only time I watch platinum videos. I like to see how other people experienced the platinum journey. See someone struggle with a part I struggled with few hours ago gives me joy for some odd reason.

[@AdamMcDermott]

I'm honoured you'd watch my video of a game you have no intention of playing. Cheers.

[@CPTcsalt]

such a rewarding platinum trophy for me. This game was the sole reason I got back into console gaming and bought a PS4 in 2017. Loved the video as always Adam!

[@AdamMcDermott]

Cool to hear how this was the game that got you back into console gaming. Cheers!

[@qwertynemesis9801]

I've watched probably all your videos and from time to time I see you get drawn into the story more than the trophies. This is certainly not a problem what so ever its nice to see this happen. I enjoyed this game so much and the trophies for me were an after thought... still got the platinum and enjoy the ass off it. Let's see what suckerpunch can do in the future. Thankyou Adam for taking a long amount of time making these videos and I'm looking forward to your next video, keep on keeping on!

[@AdamMcDermott]

Bingo. The story is what interested me the most so that is what the video focuses on. Just like you, the trophies became an afterthought. Cheers. Thank you for saying such kind words.

[@AJ-vy1rl]

This is honestly one of my favourite games of all time. The visuals are stunning and the story is equally as amazing. I found myself playing this long into the early hours of the morning every time I hopped on.

[@AdamMcDermott]

Really cool when a game resonates with you so much. Happy to hear you loved the game.

[@PetSymmetry]

After a 15 hour car ride I get out and see this in my YT sub box. Beautiful. Thanks as always Adam!

I would absolutely love to see you do a platinum play through of the Borderlands series. It’s incredibly fun, great story line, and tons of fun adventures and things to do. I think you would love the gameplay and would be a great addition to the channel

Thank you for the recommendation.

Been watching for some time now, and still can't believe you have only a little over 25k subs.

Please guys get this man to a million subs , he makes way better videos then anyone I know... please don’t stop my man !

[@NoCluYT]

Bought it a week ago and it's been nothing short of amazing. The PS5 version is especially great. Feeling the different textures on the ground when riding the horse, the impact of two blades slashing, etc. This game might end my long streak of only playing multiplayer games

[@dicloniusgames]

This is one of the two games so nice on both PS4 and PS5 that I platinumed it twice. Reminds me I need to find time to get back to the Iki Island expansion.

[@pontusvesterlund8887]

I've had a bad day today but when I saw you posted a video my day was for the better. I really like your videos because they feel really personal and "real" in some way, it's a little hard to explain. But I want to thank you for taking the time to make so many fantastic and fun videos, you have helped me the days I have had it a little harder and made me feel better :) I found your channel when I searched for Dead Space 2 Hardcore mode and I thought it sounded interesting when the titel said Platinum Journey so I clicked on it and have been stuck since then and it must have been at least 5-6 years ago and I have probably watched that video at least 10 times :) But again thank you for fantastic videos and that you always make me feel good and laugh keep up the good work Adam! Love from Sweden!

[@AdamMcDermott]

I'm honoured I can help make a bad day better. Thank you for sticking around so long. You are more than welcome, buddy. Love from Ireland.

[@pontusvesterlund8887]

@@AdamMcDermott Are you ever going to play Control? And if so, if you are going to do that, I would recommend you get the Ultimate Edition because then all the DLC comes with and a free upgrade to PS5 It's a relatively simple Platinum on that game, but most important of all is that the game is fun to play and I hope and believe you would like it too :) And it's one of my favorite games :)

[@AdamMcDermott]

Thanks. Best of luck with Spider-Man. I will indeed get a PS5 at some point. Hope you are keeping well too.

[@TheRenZoG]

Oh man this game is so beautiful that it was the first time I became obsessed with photo mode in a game! Countless times I had to stop whatever quest I was heading to just to admire the scenery. Easily best game of 2020

[@AdamMcDermott]

I also had to stop for a few pictures in photo mode. One of the most beautiful worlds I've ever gotten the pleasure to explore.

@@AdamMcDermott yeah I understand. I enjoyed how you focused on the story. It’s such a great game and deserved its own journey regardless of the trophies.

Please play Control! It’s one of my favourite unsettling odd games and I think your platinum journey with it could be great. Good video as always 👍

[@alerog745]

Good video! Truly is one of the most beautiful games I've ever played

[@AdamMcDermott]

Thank you. Yeah, beautiful game.

[@GuyFarruski]

Such a great Journey!! Just makes me want to jump back in and play it!! It feels weird listening to the English voices since I'm playing with the Japanese voices. The fight with Masako completely hit me by surprise, it was a nice unexpected twist. Obtaining the Ghost stance was probably one of the most badass scenes I have ever seen!! Unfortunately I Couldn't watch past this point because that's where I am up to at the moment and I don't want any spoilers, but I will definitely come back to watch the rest of the video when I'm done with the story!! Great content as always Adam!!

[@AdamMcDermott]

You are not alone playing in Japanese. I stuck with English because of the lip sync being off in Japanese. Unlocking Ghost Stance is so cool. Yeah, definitely finish the game for yourself. I thought the ending was excellent. Cheers!

[@yaronlavi16]

This editing was awsome, good video Im surprised you didnt show sensei Ishikawa's tales, though. That was my favorite questline

[@AdamMcDermott]

Thank you very much. Happy with how the episode turned out. Ishikawa's tale didn't interest me as much as Lady Masako so I did a deep dive into her story instead.
