Introduction
Welcome to Brütal Legend, a game where rock and metal are the foundations to humanity. You play as Eddie Riggs, a roadie for a rock/metal band who is crushed to death when the stage set falls on him. However his blood gets into his belt buckle and he gets transported back in time to Brütal Land. A prehistoric era where everything is a bit more rock and roll than it was back home. Here he sees humanity has been oppressed by the Demons of the Tainted Coil. Eddie has come to help lead humanity into a new age of Rock and Metal.
Brütal Legend has a very interesting play style, it is part open world, part action RPG and part RTS all at the same time. It isn’t an overly hard game even on Brutal, just need to make more use with your solos than on Normal and Easy. The main problem with the game comes with the latest patch (v1.02) and the 78% glitch. If you go over 78% game completion on this patch, then there is a very high chance that your save file will corrupt and you will be unable to load it anymore and have to start a new game from scratch. If you have an older save handy from before you hit 78%, then you can carry on but will have to finish the remainder of the game in one go. See Road Map to prevent corrupted data by Conceptfly for a very good guide to how to do the game with the glitch in mind. If you don't have Hammer of Infinite Fate DLC and don't plan on doing it, you can also play the game unpatched and that should remove the 78% glitch for you, just don't accidentally install the update until you have Metal God

Note: Guide has been written assuming patch 1.02 has been installed.
If you want to downgrade to the 1.01 patch, to avoid the 78% glitch then see here: LINK to downgrade. NOTE: The Hammer of Infinite Fate DLC and the Online trophies require the 1.02 patch to be installed, before they can be accessed. If you update to patch 1.02 after going past 78% completion, then your file still has a chance of corrupting.

Step 2: Pre-Post Game Miscellaneous trophies
Now you are going to want to do as many of the miscellaneous trophies as you can, before going over 78% game completion.
