Is The Order the easiest first party platinum ever?

Don't worry too much about spoilers, there really aren't any there. Only one trophy is hidden and presumably, that's for completing the game.

I'm looking at this list and I think to myself "fuck, that looks easy." I mean a gold trophy for killing 3 enemies at once with a grenade? What a bargain. I can see this quickly becoming the most commonly achieved platinum of any first (or second if you want) party game Sony have released.

Those I'll probably need a guide for, but you're right, that looks like one easy Plat.

inFAMOUS:SS was really easy.

I have every Trophy you can get for that in one playthrough, but I'm really not looking forward to having to replay all of the story missions again on Expert with Good Karma. Seems tedious as fuck.

Which is incredibly easy.
Unskippable cutscenes and poor overall mission design are more difficult barriers for me to overcome than a mere lack of skill.

Most recent player got all but the audio logs and inspection trophies in a 5 hour stretch so yes its a easy platinum. Walking dead is probably the easiest though.

Ironically, seems like the hardest trophies are the ones that require exploration/ask you to go off the path

and time consuming compared to this.

You've Platinumed The Order and know how long the game with all collectibles is? Serious question, if the game is super short I'll rent it.

Second Son is a pretty easy 20 hours for two playthroughs and all other stuff.

Wait you're claiming trophies as easy to get without ever having played the game?
These trophies don't necessarily look like they require a lot of skill, most of them seem like natural things that would be achieved just by playing the game on launch day. Like killing ten lycans.

Idk how long it is but I think it's safe to say it's probably 8-10 hours.

It really isn't that a dramatic call to say a platinum is easy after looking at that list. Collectibles trophies are a thing, sure, but the majority of the game is super easy to complete by the looks of it.

That 20 hours doesn't count the time wasted as I accidentally fall asleep during the unbelievably boring cutscenes.

The Order doesn't seem like a game worth playing twice, either, so thankfully it looks like you can get these all in one go.

Yeah, might be a rental.

It all looks very straightforward, maybe just need a guide for the inspect stuff. No difficulty stuff or anything.

This seems even easier than Second Son from the looking at the list. I wonder if some of them will be arbitrarily difficult to accomplish (like not having access to a weapon except in a very specific part). If it has a chapter select then that would really help the road to platinum (assuming its easy to miss something).

No, come on now.

Resistance: Burning Skies will forever be the easiest first-party Platinum.

Beat the game + play a round of multi. Bang, you win.

That is why I play as Good the first time and Evil for the Hard play.

Game was so damn easy that I played on expert from the start.

Would have been smart, if I looked at the Trophy list before I started my first play. :p

I'm not worried about the difficulty, though. Even on Expert, I've heard it's only about as difficult as the previous Infamous games. It just won't be fun.
