RJ's Platinum Collection #21: The Quarry

Achieved on 3/6/2023 at 9:15 PM

Going by the fact that some of my previous Platinum's included Until Dawn, The Dark Pictures games, Detroit: Become Human, etcetera, I think it's no secret I love games where I can make choices that affect the plot. And Supermassive is really good at making horror games of that exact nature. So when The Quarry came out, I was super excited to play it and the Platinum for it!

Also, Brenda Song is in it. Enough said.

You get put in the shoes of nine teenagers - Ryan, Kaitlyn, Dylan, Emma, Abi, Jacob, Nick, Laura, and Max - as they spend one last night at the summer camp they've been working at in the woods. However, things go sideways real fast when the teens realize they're being stalked and hunted by a family of werewolves. So it's up to the player to help them all survive the night and make it out of the Quarry alive, with the assistance of a ghostly medium named Eliza in-between chapters.

I started by going into the game and doing a blind first playthrough. I figured that I had done such a good job with a blind playthrough in House of Ashes, I could probably do it again right? Well, unfortunately, that was not the case. By the time I finished the Epilogue of my first playthrough, I had only managed to keep three of the characters alive (Abi, Nick, and Max). Well, you win some, you lose some. At least I got 20 trophies still.

1/41: What's This? - Collected your first clue.

2/41: Forewarned Is Forearmed - Got a Tarot reading.

3/41: Prologue - Complete the Prologue.

4/41: The Truth Is Out There - Collected your first piece of evidence.

5/41: Chapter 1 - Complete Chapter 1.

6/41: It's All Coming Together - Found a matching clue.

7/41: Chapter 2 - Complete Chapter 2.

8/41: Chapter 3 - Complete Chapter 3.

9/41: Chapter 4 - Complete Chapter 4.

10/41: Chapter 5 - Complete Chapter 5.

11/41: Chapter 6 - Complete Chapter 6.

12/41: Chapter 7 - Complete Chapter 7.

13/41: Chapter 8 - Complete Chapter 8.

14/41: Reactionist - Activated 15 interrupts.

15/41: You're Breathetaking! - Passed five Don't Breath events.

16/41: Phlebotomy - Accepted the bite of a werewolf.

17/41: Mutually Assured - Laura and Travis killed each other.

18/41: Chapter 9 - Complete Chapter 9.

19/41: Chapter 10 - Complete Chapter 10.

20/41: Epilogue - Witnessed the Epilogue.

Onto my second playthrough! This time I used my knowledge of how I failed in the first playthrough, plus a few helpful guides, to make sure that all nine teens stayed alive. I also wanted to get all Tarot cards, all clues, and all evidence on this playthrough, but it turns out that is impossible because of a single path decision in Chapter 2. If you go one way, you find a Tarot card. If you go the other way, you find a Clue. However, you can't get BOTH on one playthrough. That is deeply irritating. I decided to do the Tarot cards, and eventually succeeded in my endeavor for an Everyone Survives playthrough.

21/41: Nick Of Time - Successfully took the fastest route to Nick.

22/41: Above The Law - Travis and Laura agreed to work together.

23/41: Decked Out - Found all Tarot cards.

24/41: The White Wolf - Killed Silas.

25/41: Family Matters - Killed all of the Hacketts.

26/41: Rough Night - Kept everyone alive.

I thought I had gotten all the evidence as well, but it turns out I missed one. However, I then discovered that it doesn't count if you just go to chapter select and pick up what you missed. I ended up having to do a third playthrough just to get the trophy for finding all ten pieces of evidence. Again, deeply irritating.

27/41: Conspiracy Theorist - Collected all evidence.

I then used chapter select to quickly replay Chapter 9 so that Ryan dies in the Hackett house, but Laura is able to kill Travis and escape so that she and Max reunite on the island. It was a cute little scene.

28/41: Should've Gone To The Motel - Reunited Laura and Max.

I then decided to just get a very easy trophy out of the way and start a movie mode playthrough. You don't need to actually finish it - just starting movie mode at all gets you the trophy.

29/41: Creature Feature - Started a movie mode playthrough.

I then started another new playthrough, this time going for making sure all nine characters died. I also went for the trophy for refusing Eliza's help in-between each chapter, since why bother learning the future if I already know everyone is gonna be dead?

30/41: Just A Flesh Wound - Saved a friend from infection.

31/41: Lovers' Quarrel - Nick killed Abi.

32/41: Hard Pass - Refused Eliza's help at every opportunity.

33/41: Hackett's Quarry Massacre - Killed everyone.

I then replayed Chapters 9 and 10 twice to get the trophies for having Kaitlyn be the sole survivor and for having Ryan be the sole survivor.

34/41: The Final Girl - Kaitlyn survived the night alone.

35/41: Last Man Standing - Ryan survived the night alone.

Now it was time for my fifth playthrough, this time going for the trophy for getting all nine characters turned into werewolves. You could do this on an Everybody Lives playthrough, but I just didn't think to do it at the time. Max, Laura, and Nick all get infected no matter what, but the other six require you to make specific choices in order to get them bitten. I also made sure to get all of the clues, and I also got the trophy for never missing in combat encounters as well.

36/41: Bizarre Yet Bonafide - Listened to the podcast.

37/41: Blood Pact - Infected every character.

38/41: Meddling Kids! - Collected all clues.

39/41: Peanut Butter Butterpops! - Never missed in a combat encounter.

Now I just had one more trophy, and it was for Jacob telling Emma the truth about how he sabotaged the car to keep them at camp for one more night. But in order to do that, you need Emma to be infected and then cured, but Jacob can't get infected at all. That did require me to do a partial playthrough of the game, but once I got the scene and unlocked the trophy, the Platinum was mine!

40/41: Nobody's Fool - Jacob told Emma the truth.

41/41: What Doesn't Kill You... - Achieved all the trophies!

I thought The Quarry was a great addition to Supermassive's collection - not as good as Until Dawn, but good in it's own right. However, I once again had to do multiple entire playthroughs of the game to get the Platinum, which I'm not the biggest fan of.

Rating: 8/10

I love the intricacies of finding new interests from other interests and how deep that rabbit hole can go

[chocobizcuit]

Guys, if you ever want to play a truly unhinged version of The Quarry, get yourself a freshly formatted PS4 and play it from the disc with no updates.

It’s got unfinished shading! It’s got deleted scenes! And my new favorite glitch of all time: I let Dylan keep his hand so he turned at the Scrapyard. Then I got the biggest jump scare I’ve ever had in the game because HE RANDOMLY APPEARED AT THE LODGE.

Yo, something is not right with that boy. 😭

Emma also appeared with Abi in the surveillance room cut scene despite also being a werewolf trapped in the basement. But that was way less ominous.

This is also my third run using the same save file with chapter select, so I’m guessing something got crossed and there are remnants of prior saves coming through? I was going to let it update but now I feel like I must keep playing it as-is to see just how broken I can make this game.

Have you ever played any Supermassive games like until dawn, the quarry, the dark pictures?? I just finished the remake of until dawn and it was really great. I'm not sure if you'd enjoy games like that but I feel like those could be a fun stream at some point in time too :). Have a great day btw!

You straight up just wanna watch me shit myself right? 😂😂😂

Yes! I've played a few of those. Completed the Quarry twice, 1000G separate games on Xbox, I have a PS4 but I'd have to pay for PS+ and Until Dawn to play that

I've played The Devil In Me, The Quarry, Little Hope, and the Man of Medan 🥰

Never played House of Ashes before

[electricdecades]

guess who just finished speedrunning all the quarry PS4 trophies (did them all in around 23h of gameplay I think?) 😊

[b0om-butterfly3ffect]

Dont let this fandom die ! </3

Dylan and Ryan deserve everything, especially eachother.

[joonbuggiie]

Did a UD collab with a friend :D check out their part @sir-sumair !! ❤️

We are deep in the brain rot so enjoy the culmination of that 😭

hi I may have accidentally been spamming you and I am so sorry <3 in my defense I just played devil in me after a bit of a break when I 100%d the quarry and now I'm vibrating about the whole thing. I own a ps4 and until dawn and I'm like ough. i have to ask tho what's ur onion on tDiM? I think it was... good but a little boring? like obviously it's fun, but at the same time I was in the edge of my seat the whole time like, trying to guess the twist and I just ... the twist is that he gets up? I guess. I know it's seemingly a part 1 but. Hm. Hmmm. I was hoping for Terminator style, slowly replacing all of his human parts with machines, like when the dog bites his hand in the end we were gonna see metal fingers. Anyway I am RAMBLING anyway bye

heheh, well hi yourself!!! ;)c i prooomise you weren't spamming - i always love seeing new names and faces popping up in my activity!!! and aw man, i know exactly what you mean about tdim. when i went back to it recently, i was pleasantly surprised to find i liked the lonnit entertainment crew more than i did my first time around, butttttttttttttt yeah, that ending though.

see, my main problem is that i'm a forensic/criminal psychologist, so i just spent the game on high alert like "I CAN SOLVE THIS ONE, BOSS!" and that. wasn't the right way to go, ha!!! seriously though, my first playthrough i spent most of the game thinking there were two possibilities with du'met that could be really cool, and that was (1) there was more than one of him, hence the silence, the mask, and the being everywhere at once; or (2) since we're shown he has an obsession with making animatronics out of bodies, well, maybe the du'met chasing after us is some kind of fancy - like you're saying, terminator - animatronic!!! both i think would've been creepy for different reasons.

alas. he just gets up. 😔 for sure i thought the game was a blast, i have yet to meet a supermassive game i don't like, and i loooooooved a lot of the visuals they used, just...idk i guess i hoped for some sort of crazy du'met CLUB where serial killers from near and far could get their kicks at the murder castle aslkdjfalksdjf HAHAH

okay now i'm rambling. thanks for the ask!!! :D
