- 21:00 – Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin TGS 2021 Special Broadcast – A review of the survey from the June-released trial version, plus live gameplay and more with special guests. Featuring MC Masao Koori, Kasumi Ashizawa (game talent and voice actor), Sayaka Kano (game idol), Tetsuya Nomura (Square Enix creative producer) (heavenly voice), Daisuke Inoue (Square Enix director), Hiroya Usuda (Koei Tecmo director), and Michinobu Kumabe (Koei Tecmo director).
God, even the title is clunky. I keep wanting to say "Stranger in Paradise" not Stranger of Paradise which barely makes any grammatical sense.
The game is an Isekai. The four Warriors of Light are all people from the real world that are pulled into the FF universe.
Series S runs at like 10fps on Resolution and 40 fps while looking like a pixel on Quality mode.
Not sure how the Series X version runs, anybody played it on Series S?

It boggles my mind that they were like: "Okay let's bring the unblockable/parry attacks from Nioh 2 but let's not have the whole Yokai Counter system that balances it out"
You have a boss that rushes forward and spins around and no matter where you get hit you get grabbed. In Nioh 2 that would be the time to use the Yokai Counter, your only option here is to just run away and hope you get lucky.

Thanks!
what in gods name is happening on series x
I have it in favor performance mode and it runs like absolute hot ass once the rain starts.
I played the first demo on ps5 and everything seems to be running worse here, demo is too big for me to bother downloading and trying there again…but uh, it is absolutely unplayable. I got into a fight where it was single digits the entire time.

Not tried resolution mode but performance mode runs like between 40 and 60fps. 30fps Cinematics could drop around 15fps ( looks like bug ) and the resolution looks something between 720p and 1080p .... Game looks very blurry.
I dont know whats happens with this title ( PS5 version has better optimization but still technically not we can expect from Team Ninja )
The game looks techinally a PS360 game : it should runs at 1080p60fps locked on Series S and something like 1440/1800p 60fps locked on Series X , PS5 .
Team Ninja needs to wake up seriously.
Okay I dropped the difficulty to beat the second boss.
I'm sorry but that fight is not balanced on Hard Difficulty at all. Like the gulf between Action and Hard is staggering and not in a good way.
I feel like Hard Mode should be like... you know. Nioh 1/2 level of difficulty and the normal enemies generally don't feel that bad but the 2nd boss was such a gigantic difficulty spike it's astonishing.

I am not sure how this game looks this bad. It looks significantly worse either NioH games, and I don't know why that is.
They can polish it before launch of course but judging by the state of the game between the two demos and how little it's improved I'm not that confident.
It's not exactly that.
Between disc printing, QA, and certification, a release IN 6 months means they have far less time than that.
They delay it or this is DoA it's that simple.
The demo is likely an older build already so it's hard to say what the current state even is, but it's really surprising something so rough is a public demo.
Grievances with all that aside I do think the core loop seems interesting, but this is like the worst aspects of Nioh loot spam ramped up to 100. There is waaaaaaaay too much menuing, new equipment after every single fight, etc. to be juggling. Then the class system with different equipment per set and decking out the teammates is added on top...it's just far too much and I don't really expect that aspect to change much.

They can go gold a month before launch like most games these days and then work feverishly on a day one patch. They have 6 months.
Not that I believe this will be the case or that the game will run perfectly by then, but most people who aren't on Era also don't care much about resolution or frame rate issues, so... we'll see.
Just finished the second demo.
I'm glad that I played this, because now I'm 100% skipping it. Might get it a year or two after its release for a cheap price, but only if it has good word of mouth and they manage to fix the godawful performance.

Would literally be a better game with minimal story and create a character
Like seriously the cast and script is so mindbendingly dumb its amazing that it was created by actual adult humans
Children could have come up with something more engaging and imaginative. It isn't even campy in a good way though it did get a few chuckles from me and my friends
Now that I got that out of the way. I actually really enjoyed the combat and character building. There are some legit cool ideas sprinkled in here. It is kind of a mess and I feel like you unlock the trees super fast. I am not sure on the lasting power of this game into a co-op endgame scenario
Still it plays reasonably well and I definitely had fun with it. The Garland fight is actually pretty sweet though it is pretty cheap in some ways. Still its a fight you and your buddies can strategize around if you use all the tools they give you in the demo and they give you A LOT.
Overall the game gives me Dungeons and Dragons: Dark Alliance vibes. Short term comfort food gaming with a lot of bugs and no clear vision for its future.

To be fair, "Final Fantasy" is actually a perfect name for an isekai, especially if the characters have died in the real world
As much as I dislike the idea that FFI features isekai'd characters, the fact is this isn't the first product with the "Final Fantasy" name to feature isekai'd characters.
I like what FFX did, with Tidus actually going from the "fantasy" world to the "real" world lol
I had a similar issue in this level on PS5. The game basically crawled at the beginning parts of the level.
I wish there was a term to describe this kind of story where these modern people show up in a fantasy world. Like that one Mark Twain story where that guy shows up in King Arthur's world.
I just launched the demo... is it the same as the first demo? Or is there another mission after? Cba doing the same stuff I did in the first demo
There's a second mission, but you have to beat the area from the first demo to access it (unless I missed a choice to skip it somewhere).
That's the first thing I thought after watching the trailer. You could tell that they were like "Don't mention Chaos. Don't mention Chaos" lol
Played a bit and I am stuck at the first boss. They apparently changed the boss name from the first demo because I researched strats for the boss.
Reading up on the term Isekai, I hope they don't add embarrassing anime tropes and keep serious style that doesn't take itself seriously. So far everything looks good.

wtf is going on, why is the 2nd mission sunleth waterscape
nomura what are you smoking

NGL if we end up exploring different areas from different FF games that would be pretty awesome
It sounds like various destinations are shaded with dressing of other final fantasies, which is interesting. The Nioh games have had 20+ missions but FF1 was only about 12 dungeons, so all of the world segments are likely themed with other games and callbacks.
So got around to play it this morning and finished the first mission. Minus performance issues, which I hope get ironed out, this game is really fun.
I'm not the only one experiencing abysmal performance, am I?
Game keeps stuttering randomly, it's bad, especially in the 2nd mission
