Nightmare trophy in 20 minutes

[Multitasking]

Ok, first off, beat the game on easy or normal, or hard.

start new game+
after first save, exit
start chapter 1, final area, Finish it
autosave in town, exit
start chapter 2, final area, finish it.
autosave in town, exit.
rinse, repeat for rest of chapters.
jump past the final boss to the end, trophies pop on credits.

Bang, done. I just did it, anyone seconding to prove it works would be appreciated.

As for testing I did this first, I had started on nightmare, and played through to the start of chapter 3, I then skipped to the final boss. beat him, no trophies at credits.

Restarted a NG+ on nightmare, autsaved in town, exited, went to final area of chapter 1, beat it. After doing it on every chapter and beating final boss, trophies popped in the credits.

No DLC installed or DLC items.

if this really works you might want to send a message to the guide writers so they can test it and if it works they might add it to the guide. because wow, getting that difficulty trophy in 20 mins is something worth testing. Even I'll buy the game if it works.

Wow brilliant find !
If it's true thank you so much for posting. I'll try this for sure when I'll play the game.

If this actually works, then count me out. This takes the fun and challenge out of the game.

I know this works. Well sort of. I did that way with the Hysteria trophy and that popped at the end of the sixth chapter and knew this would work the same way. I had no way to prove it, since I beat the game already on nightmare when I first started.

Just to be safe, I will get the game back and try it again on my Alt profile. I will still post it in the guide, after talking to Kheapathic.

I know you hear this all the time, but this is a trophy site and half the time people don't play the game for the fun factor, but the platinum. I do understand and I still played the game 2 full times just to get the full affect of playing the game.

Also this drops the time to platinum by like 15 to 20 hours from the normal 20-45, by doing 2 platythoughs. That is if the person uses a guide while going for doing his first playthrough.

Count you out of what exactly? Even if it works, you can still do it the "legit" way. I'm still doing a nightmare playthrough right now.

Oh wow, what a huge oversight by the developers.... I need to replay the game for the collectibles anyways so.

[BreadSkin]

I just tried it out of curiosity, and well, it works lol. SO there, that's my confirmation.

I need to replay each chapter for the collectibles anyways, so here's to a some what third playthrough .

[EDIT] - Ah whoops, double post.

[videogames]

registered just to tell you that this works!
I started new game+ , let it save, then skipped to the last level and received
"The Beginning of the End", then continued doing the same to every chapter, but instead of fighting the boss on nightmare i simply went to chapter 6 level select and chose "the end" which takes you to Alice walking out of the underground and seeing wonderland inside of London. "The Imaginative Endure"
"The Persistent Flourish" and "Madness Prevails" all popped during the credits.

so again you don't have to actually fight the final boss which cuts down on time!
i wonder how long this will go unpatched.

I am trying this out right now. I'm on chapter 5, will re post if it works. It did unlock the chapter 1 on nightmare difficulty trophy, so there is no doubt in my mind that it does work.

This could easily drop down the playtime to platinum this game 15 hours. If you carefully get everything in the first playthrough. Good find.

Edit: It does in fact work, I can confirm.
