Actually you are mentioning DW8 XL save. I'm simply saving that in order to use DW8 save (platinum or otherwise) you need to still have the disc or the PSN version to update DW8 in order to even use that save. Irregardless of trophies, unless you have the disc or PSN version of Dynasty Warriors 8 you can't use that save. I only have PS4 version of Dynasty Warriors 8 Xtreme Legends Complete and I can't use my platinum save as I need to be able to update DW8 in order to use that save. If you don't have Dynasty Warriors 8 then you're out of luck and have to start over.
Having a Dynasty Warriors 8 Xtreme Legends on PS3 is a different game, so whether you can use that save or not via the cloud I don't know as I only have the PS4 version.
