Difficulty: 6/10
My time: around 110 hours
Platinum N°: 135
Finally I was able to platinum Ys VIII and I must say that it was a bit of a suffering experience, and the reason for that is a trophy that asks to finish the game in nightmare difficulty.
Other than that the platinum consists of getting 100% of: items, weapons, accessories and cooking recipes. Discover all the map, open all the chests in the game, finish all the raids and hunts, max all the skills (12 per character), complete the bestiary, among other things.
Beyond the length of going for the platinum, the game is very good, all the mechanics complement each other very well, the characters are lovable although some are very cliché and according to some media is the best Ys out there.
If you like jrpg I recommend it 100%, the Ys games like most Final Fantasy, are unitary stories so you don't need to have played the previous ones to enjoy it.
