Let's Rant: Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin: broader bugs and stuff - no overhaul feedback
Captions available. Time stamps a bit below and some explanations between a few of them.
Don't mind the thumbnail, I just didn't feel like making one.
0:00 Intro and Master Point bug in the background
0:25 Master Point Reset Bug
0:47 Holy Disappears on Successful Soul Shield (not Interception)
0:56 Critical Hit Tool Tip Error for Dagger Combo Abilities and Axe's Reanimating Sickle
Text limit. They don't do more than a normal critical hit, even on the break damage. Test on PC with CE, set agility 0. Goblin guard's break 700. Or with mission trials at V, break is 7258.
1:20 PC, Snow Disappears Based On Camera Angle
1:28 Rift, Enemies Don't Always Die when Defeated
1:40 Evoker 120% Bug with Cyclic Warrior 600% Gaining Max MP
2:03 Double Mantra, Monk 400% and Muscle Belt Stack
2:18 PC, Preset Battle Settings Sluggishness
A comparison of scrolling down while holding down in the Battle Settings during Preset vs. Battle Settings outside of Presets.
2:29 maybe a bug, 1000 Needles and 10000 Needles Do Not Trigger Blue Mage 400%
2:45 Weapon Appearance Not Working with NPC Skins
2:57 Rift, Ancients' Tower Bosses That Ambush the Player
I tried playing for an hour to get footage, but didn't encounter Darkness Manifest, DLC3 final boss, or Death Machine as the first boss in an Ancients' Tower rift.
3:10 Curse Resistance Does Nothing
All other status ailment resistances at 100% make the player immune to the respective status effect. Status Ailment Resistance 100% provides immunity to Curse. But Curse Resistance 100%~700% does nothing.
3:21 Greatsword Retribution Doesn't Deal More Damage on Counter
3:30 Xbox Series X and S, Increased Frequency of Save Error Code 20 and 30 compared to PC
The difference here is that PC can often restart the game and the error code goes away, but on Xbox - if you get hit with the bug, it occurs frequently enough without any long-term solution for it and you don't know when your play sessions are going to not save.
3:48 Xbox, Leaderboards Stuck At 100
I say minor bug in that, SQEX doesn't enforce leaderboard legitimately. Cheaters remain on PSN (e.g., 99999 NEP), EGS (10000 SuYi) and Steam (those currently higher than 1600). Suspect the same woulda happened to Xbox.
4:11 PC, inconsistent, XInput Gamepad and Keyboard can go Out of Control in Full Screen
The footage of the gamepad flipping out of me happened when I was doing something else instead of trying to catch the error intentionally.
4:57 DLC3, Cyclic Armor Reward Disappears If Inventory is Full
Dramatization. Didn't want to replay the game back to DLC3 just to replicate the specific issue. It's an on pick-up only issue. (You can't start a mission with inventory at 600, but you can end a mission way over the limit.)
5:20 Rare, Save Progression Not Updating with First Mission Completion (any platform)
5:54 English, Demonic Fusion and Prismatic Magic Name Swap
6:12 All Languages, Abyss and Dark Cuirass listed as a leg armor instead of Cuisses
I'm pronouncing cuirass wrong probably.
6:31 Greatsword Onslaught vs. Onslaught Command
Some confusion when player got Improved Effect: Onslaught and MP Cost: Onslaught thinking it would affect the greatsword and looking for item effects for other combo abilities.
6:37 English, x2 Arcane Axes and Cutting Battleaxe
The Berserker has access to two types of Arcane Axe. One restoring HP like Cutting Battleaxe and the other refilling break gauge. I didn't think either of the Arcane Axes should be named Arcane for a physical Berserker job where neither ability is based on magic damage or restoring MP.
6:42 Evoker Evocation vs. Evocation affinity
Some confusion when player got Improved Effect: Evocation and MP Cost: Evocation thinking it may affect all Evocation versions of jobs and was looking for Ultima-related effects.
6:45 Overpower Not Ending Bringer with Sylph Primary Blessing Dodge

BACKGROUND:
This is a video response of sorts since my concerns about the game get buried in the longer videos or my streams. And for anyone not following me as closely, it looks like I have no issues with the game or that I'm compensated by the companies. This is false.
And as I said in the video, I have lot I'd want to change. Things like UI descriptions to get more info without going to Tips or external spreadsheet. Increased background opacity for low contrast text. Next story mission remaining highlighted. Master points getting saved when saving a preset. Skip repeat boss soul burst animations. Evoker's Evocation scaling with endgame. Etc.
Don't think for a minute SE or TN will give me any freebies. I digress. Thank you for reading.
