PS2 Launch Event [10/1 to 1/1]

Again, I might just be unknowledgeable about the time and dedications required for the highest level reward for the challenges, but doing the math I was just curious.

...BUUUUT.... I did stray entirely from the point of the original question. 15 PS2 masters in 3 months? Hmm...
...Reluctantly, I'd say that makes sense. Achievements, by design, are usually meant to add more challenge to any particular game, and a LOT of folks around here are lion-fighting gladiators when taking on these tasks.
These particular events are designed for the master of the masters. It's all 10th-degree black-belt stuff...But I'm probably overselling it. =p

I'm a bit newer and I apologize if this if a bit off base, but is 15 masteries in 3 months a bit steep, or on par with the typical challenges?
15 can definitely be a lot depending on the size of game you typically play--but, fortunately you can still earn a badge with even 5 masteries! There are a number of games that would take 10 or less hours if someone really wants to game the event, but I'd recommend to play what you're interested in. Keep in mind that we're going to also be seeing more PS2 games with sets as the next few months unfold, so there may be more shorter games that catch your eye later if you want to squeeze in a few masteries for the next event badge tier.

Bounty Board
Games on the Bounty Board will be worth more than a normal mastery! These games were chosen based on various factors such as Retro Ratio, total masteries, and expected length. Bounties will remain on the board for the entire event and masteries earned before the announcements will still count for the increased value. We plan to add more games each weekend through the course of November. So, stay tuned!
