Lore of the Things trophy Question?

It's a shame it's not tracked per level. It's why I do my best to scour each level and even re-trace my steps once I've opened up the goal before exiting each level. Sure I have terrible par times but whatever.

 

Although what was weird is I didn't get "Light Reading" til a few levels after getting "The First Ballad." Is this intentional? Did I miss reading texts in a level? I figured both trophies would pop at the same time.

I got Light Reading sometime during level 23 or 24; I can't remember for sure, except that I'm positive it was before I started level 25.

Pretty sure the 25% trophy popped up on level 27 for me, so I must've missed a couple. My guess is that texts are only saved once you hit a checkpoint, so if you read one and then restart a checkpoint shortly afterwards, it won't be counted. I didn't really make sure I did this until I was 15 or so levels in, so that'd account for the ones I missed.

Not sure how this game counts the text files but I already had the 75% trophy and decided to reset the story/levels and made sure to hit a checkpoint after each one, I've just popped the 100% trophy on level 59 :confused: Just need the patch to come to EU for the Q fix and I'm done with this buggy mess of a game!

It won't pop for me either.

 

Got 75% shortly after going through levels 1-25 again so I'm pretty sure all those levels are done.

 

Once I finished the game still no trophy. I'm gonna try from level 26 onwards and hopefully it'll pop up.

 

I'd say this trophy is glitched but people have gotten the plat so it can't be. I must be doing something wrong. I read each text more than once before and after hitting a checkpoint if possible. If I die, I try go go back and read it again as a precaution.

 

This is really annoying. I've only got this trophy and Agent 48 (can be easily obtained though) left for the platinum.

I am yet to play myself but a couple of friends playing this have suggested a full playthrough & try to be a thorough as possible before progressing each level.

 

Again they havent obtained the trophy yet as they were awaiting the patch to resolve the issue with the 'Q' trophy but are this trophy away from the plat, however as dcollins22 is one of my friends in question I can confidently say he & mullivanat who have done the guide & a great job with it (credit to both) will obtain this & update it on how best to do it.

 

Hope this helps. ;)

I've gone through all the levels at least twice, several of them three or more times... and this thing just won't pop. Anyone know of any easily missable text files? For those that have the trophy, what level did it pop for you?

 

Went through the levels again and the trophy popped on a random level after I checked a text file that I absolutely know for certain that I've gotten before. So yeah... no idea why the game hadn't registered it previously and what exactly made it work this time.

Did you play through prior to the new update?

 

Although I dont think the update addresses this particular trophy, but it may have messed up the counter if you played & updated the patch anyway, which may explain why the trophy popped randomly??

Good thought but this isn't it. I didn't start the game till the most recent patch was released as I was waiting for the Q trophy to be fixed first. So it seems like even on the most recent patch, the Lore trophy is questionable. It's obviously obtainable but I would say it's completely unreliable.

 

The particular text file which popped the trophy for me, I am absolutely certain I got it multiple times. In addition, the level it is on is very short and easy and I distinctly remember beating the level without ever getting caught, or even being seen. So it's definitely not the case that I got the text file and then got caught before getting to a checkpoint. Unless I'm having substantial memory loss, I can say pretty confidently that passing a checkpoint is not an absolute guarantee that the game will count a text file as read.

Just completed the "story" for the third time, still didn't get the 100% text trophy. I really like the game but this is so frustrating :mad:

 

Are you deleting your save and completely starting over each time? If you are, I would advise against it. From what I've experienced, the games doesn't glitch and make the Lore trophy impossible to obtain. Instead, it seems that the game is failing to register some text files the first few times you read them. So you have a better chance of all text files being triggered as read if you're doing the levels multiple times on the same save.

 

If you are doing it all on the same save, then I think you're in the same boat I was in. I went through all 100 levels around three times and I was just about to give up when it all of a sudden popped on a text file I know I had read before. Keep at it and hopefully it'll pop soon. Good luck.

Aftter the first time I completed the story I kept my save and did it for the second time. After that I reset story progression and did it again. Now the trophy popped on a text I know I collected numerous times before :confused: Oh well, I'm glad I'm done with this now :whistle:

Well its a strange one it has to be said. A mate of mine is in the same boat, he's at 91% but like most doesnt know which ones he hasnt got! Its a shame there is no counter to 'register' the texts especially as there are 100 levels. Even if they are short its still a blag to replay them all with no guarantee u'll get the trophy.

 

What makes it worse is the trophy for some has popped when the same text has been picked up multiple times.

 

I am going to make a note of each one on each level I think to try & aid me through it & hope when I get round to playing it that it works.

Ok everyone, I just got realllly lucky. Though I'd try out a few levels in a last ditch effort this time working back to front. Turns out I had to re-register a text on level 92: A Ghost Enters.

 

I know the missing texts appear random, reading through the thread... But you never know this may help you - knowing which texts can glitch might be useful...

 

Good luck everyone.

FINALLY POPPED FOR ME!

 

After about my third or fourth time running through the story (did a normal run the first but it corrupted towards the end, second was a legit story run, third was meant to be clean-up but got the corrupt error AGAIN, fourth time was a charm) it popped on "A Friend in Need" which is the 42nd level. Pretty sure I've read all the texts in that level numerous times. :confused:

 

My guess is this is partially glitched and it's just random at this point. So my advice would be to reset your story and just keep playing through until it pops. Honestly I think it's just random.

 

Finally got this plat and can uninstall this.

I am currently at level 55 & have read the txts on each level (twice) & am making notes where & when the txts are on each level so I can then post on here all txts/locations etc. unless someone does it before me.

 

The 1st 25% read of txts trophy popped on Chp23 for me where there are 3 txts in that level & it popped upon reading the 2nd txt in that level. The txt count was 37.

 

Now if the number of 1/4 of the txts is 37 then hopefully the next trophy would pop after reading the 74th txt.

 

This happened for me on Chp46 on the 1st txt which was the 74th & the 50% of read txts trophy popped.

 

I am yet to get the remaining 2 trophies but hopefully they will pop after reading txt 111 & 148 respectively.

 

Not 100% confirmed but I would say so far to my findings & playthrough that there are estimated to be 148 txts.

 

I will update soon on how it goes with the others.
