The average level cap in most games does not exceed triple digits, and is usually 100. A level cap of 9,999 is not a number you would expect to see, which makes it absurdly high. You don't need to play the game in order to come to that conclusion, and the picture is adequate.
After asking the opinion of a few non-gaming mods, we've decided that the picture gets its job done. Thread will not be opened.

The trope is about level caps that are far higher than what is needed to finish a game, especially if the cap takes much longer to reach than it does to complete the game.
However, the current image does not match the description, it's just a character profile with the character's level at 9999. Unless one has played the game, there is no way to tell whether that particular level can be achieved in standard play, or requires more grinding than is needed to clear the game and therefore fits under the trope.
