Five reasons you should become a trophy hunter

Trophy hunting is a thrilling hobby for many. I don’t know about you, but the thrill that comes with seeing your trophy collection grow is unexplainable. In particular, whenever I add another platinum to my winnings, I feel pumped for days.

Five reasons you should become a trophy hunter

Playing a game and being able to say that you’ve completed it is even more exciting. Still not sure if trophy hunting is for you? Here are some five reasons that might convince you to join the large and warm community of trophy hunters worldwide.

Bragging rights

Imagine having a conversation with someone and casually mentioning that you have the platinum trophy? Some will not get it, but those who understand and enjoy trophy hunting will definitely put some respect to your name.

It’s a big deal that you faced all the challenges the game threw at you and emerged victorious. It takes a lot of determination to spend tens of hours playing a game like Horizon Zero Dawn and winning the platinum trophy or other hard-to-reach Horizon Zero Dawn achievements.

Trophy hunting can also be a great conversation starter among gamers. Finding out what trophies one has collected, what games one is playing and sharing experiences is a great way to get to know a person. Great friendships and relationships can be formed. So the next time you are trying to make conversation with someone, ask them what their favorite game is and what trophy they are currently trying to collect.

More satisfaction from gaming

Gaming is exciting but trophy hunting takes the thrill to another level. It’s fun to play a game just to complete it but searching every corner for collectables, going through several levels of difficulty, completing all side quests and experiencing multiplayer modes takes the thrill to another level. It’s no fun playing a game just once. Visualize playing a game until you completely exhaust it? The thrill that comes with it is maddening.

Personally I feel more motivated to play a game if I know I will play it in different levels of difficulty and collect trophies while at it. Trophy hunting makes all this possible.

 Community

Gaming communities can be full of so much toxicity including bullying, but trophy hunters’ communities are different. Communities such as r/Trophies subreddit, PSN profiles and fallout 4 review are some of the friendliest and most helpful groups you will find anywhere on the web.

These communities focus on helping each other and those who pull off incredible feats are congratulated. Tips on how to play different games are shared inside these groups so you never feel alone or lost!

Joy and fulfillment

The simple (or not so simple) act of moving seamlessly from one action to the next is incredibly satisfying. Trophy hunting is specially designed to make the participant achieve flow. By moving through the trophy list, you can easily enjoy a sense of achievement.

This is what makes trophy hunting super enjoyable and fulfilling as a hobby. So, if you are looking for something that will help you achieve flow in your life and as a result bring you much-needed fulfillment, trophy hunting might be that hobby.

Appreciate games more

For some people, trophy hunting is a way to focus and appreciate the games they play. Instead of getting platinum’s and achieving top rankings, you can decide to focus on a single game and play it exhaustively.

If you enjoyed the Resident Evil Franchise for example, you can decide to focus on getting every trophy in this particular game. This is an excellent way of showing your love and appreciation for a particular game or franchise. I have seen trophy hunters who decide to play only Final Fantasy Franchise until they win every trophy in it!

Does trophy hunting finally sound interesting to you?

Trophy hunting is simply the icing on the cake, the cake being gaming in general. Trophy hunters come in all shapes and forms. Some want the freedom to pick the games they play, some find fulfillment in completing every game as soon as it is released, and some are interested only in particular franchises.

One thing is for sure, whether you get excitement from picking a single franchise and sticking to it or you boast in completing every game your account has touched, trophy hunting will certainly leave you feeling more fulfilled and like a winner.

If you decide to pick up trophy hunting as a hobby, which we hope you do, we wish you the best of luck. It’s time to go all out and show the world what determination and resilience can do.
