Just finished what I guess I would consider Act I and boy am I digging this game. A couple fun mechanics to end that little bit.

So I guess the patch was the one that hit a couple days ago, and all of their posts about waiting until today were bs? Lol. Oh well. Guess I'll start.

But people were saying Lam was still bugged i thought?
Huh?
Well either way i was able to recruit them but i made sure i did the right specific order.
Also where the fuck is my in game backer rewards code since i got physical??
Did any of them for sure start a new game on 1.003? If it's still bugged then there should definitely be another patch soon.
They made a point to say that the patch may not fix the problem for pre-existing save files. I don't know if anyone who's encountered it has said whether they started before or after 1.03 came out.
1.03 wasn't even the first progression fix, that fixed some dungeon bug. It was 1.02.
I dunno i thought a few here def started after 1.02
I started on 1.00 and i was able to recruit thankfully by just doing the correct order but i am fine starting over if i needed to, but guess i don't
And of course it gets somehow more confusing, sheesh. Should I restart my game on this current patch? Who knows?
Don't know if this will work for you but here is a link to a screenshot I took about 8 hours in:
Huh? That patch hit a couple of days ago? But they literally had a tweet that said this
View: https://twitter.com/eiyuden/status/1781110307102073177
"72-hour backer Early Access for backers will start on Sat Apr 20. We are currently working on additional patches in time for this backer's early access. Please be aware that if you play the game without this patch then bugs may remain in your save data that may affect your ability to complete the game. We ask that you kindly wait for this patch to be distributed before playing."
And that's a tweet from the 19th....
Wait didn't they say on the Discord that a patch was hitting today?! I don't understand. I could of been playing the past 2 days?
Yeah, there have been a couple posts from them in various places saying to wait until the patch coming today. But I guess that was really just 1.003 from a couple days ago? Or something.
From Eiyuden JP twitter, the only version that is not up to date yet is Switch Asia/Jp version.

Couldn't that also just be the digital deluxe preorder early unlock? Since they did that on a separate tier from the backer unlock?
As someone who has the Switch version it's telling me 1.02 is the latest but people keep mentioning 1.03. Is that only for other platforms or what
That's what i am saying, either someone didn't get the memo and still put that out or they were lying then. More likely someone didn't get the memo.
Or this new post is wrong, i don't fuckin know anymore.
I just want my golden haired cat or whatever lol
Don't know if this will work for you but here is a link to a screenshot I took about 8 hours in:
A picture with the UI like in a battle would have been a little bit better and easier, (EASY to see on the battle order pictures like here)
But if I'm not completely wrong......
Holy shit. This is actually running in 4K here, while it is 1080p on PS5.
This is your full picture:
What is going on??? 😱
Where is Digital Foundry when you need them to give awareness of weird port fails like this? Why is the Xbox version 4K but PS5 1080p? 😂😭😔
How can I make them fixing this??
I'm talking about the dozens of action types. It doesn't explain anything. "Attack (HP Damage)" means what exactly?? It this enemy hps? Highest hps? Lowest? What about action speed? What does that mean? Am I using an attack that is the fastest? Does "magical skill attack" mean an attack spell??
According to this, the patch they're talking about has been released for all platforms at this point except Asian Switch versions.
That would explain why my Switch version is 1.02 while everyone is talking about 1.03. Presumably 1.03 IS the patch they were talking about.
But things are so messy, can't say 100% for sure
Edit: Discord also seems to confirm this

I still think something is up with ur pics cause at 1080p my battle ui does not look that fuzzy or blurry with portraits at all either way. Are you using the built in ps5 screen shots?A picture with the UI like in a battle would have been a little bit better and easier, (EASY to see on the battle order pictures like here)

Got it from the Discord.
That still doesn't make sense based on the ps4 patch notes for each patch. Lol this has been a mess. Thank god the game is fun
Yes I am, at 1080p on your 1080p TV it obviously will look 100% sharp. There is nothing "up with my pictures". What I post are 4K Screenshots, but when the source is only 1080p and the rest gets blown up to 4K it obviously is that blurry, I don't know what the confusing part is here for you.
I post 4K pictures and of course it's not sharp cause the game output is 1080p.
But that will obviously be razor sharp on your 1080p TV.
If I have the PS5 version running and photograph a scene as close that you can see the literal pixels of the TV, this is what you see on PS5:
This is the PC version in native 4K on a 4K TV.
The Xbox Screenshot also runs in 4K.
Do not leave the mine until you find the dash boots btw. They increase run speed which is significant QoL.
Yes, agreed. The other thing for me was the character design doesn't seem as considered and rich as the old games where they drew in a lot of cultural inspirations in their design and really developed the world building through that. A fair number of The characters here seem like generic anime types. Not that the classics didnt have that as well but I don't know just seems less thought out here.
Not me, that's for sure:
It doesn't even work, though. I set everyone to "Attack only" and they still used SP-using skills, which I don't want when I use auto-battle because the animations are longer 😩 It's super annoying.
Yep, being constantly being interrupted is one of my complaints too

So only the PS5 Version is fucked up graphically?
Seems like it yes. I mean I have no idea what the Switch runs this in and if the handheld part is native 720p or the TV part is Switches max of 1080p, but when it comes to the other consoles and PC, yes. PC is PC, Xbox Series X runs in 4K 60, PS5 currently 1080p 60.
If you set it to build up sp to 5 then they will attack only. I could have sworn the attack only worked maybe I was just a little tired when I was experimenting last night.
Framerate aside, Switch looks tack-sharp to me handheld, so I think it's 720p (and I'm assuming 1080p docked).
Edit: Yeah, looks like 1080p to me. Also, I think certain battle order portraits are lower resolution than others, depending on which characters you're using (Mellore looks a little blurrier than Nowa, for instance).
Let's hope they fix this and actually acknowledge this as an issue somehow from someone or somewhere.
I already sent a bug report about this to them, but I highly doubt I can bring any awareness to them if half the community is like "well, I don't see it" "I don't care" or like someone in their official Discord said to me "It's not an issue, 1080p is today's standard and not 4K so 1080p is fine and it's a pixel game anyway and not a big AAA game so it doesn't matter".
🤦♂️😮💨
There is not much more that I can do. 🤷♂️
That's awesome to hear!
What you say would be true about a 720p image on a 1080p screen, or about a 1440p image on a 4k screen, among others.
However, 4k screens are perfect 2x multipliers of 1080p screens both horizontally (2160 = 2 x 1080 and 3840 = 2 x 1920), so if something is sharp in 1080, it will be just as sharp in 4k.
Therefore what you said doesn't make sense in the context of 1080p to 4k.
It makes completely sense because the game doesn't do integer or near neighbor scaling. It's just a simple 1080p output of the whole thing including menus, it's more a bilinear scaling here.
Anyone remember the Metal Gear Solid Collection release a few months ago and how MGS 1 upscaled like blurry shit because it was bilinear scaling instead of near neighbor? It's basically like this. Kinda.
Can someone help me out here explaining? I'm shit in this and I know I get all the words wrong, but just because 4K is the perfect multiplier of 1080p doesn't mean that every 1080p material is always perfectly sharp on a 4K. I don't know what you expect, if I would throw on a PS5 game that has a 60fps "Performance Mode" in 1080p 60, it would also be exactly as blurry as my screenshots.
Yes the game has pixel elements like pixel artworks, but if the whole game is just...... what would be a good, but probably still wrong word here.... "Analogly"? blown up to 4K in a wrong and unintended way, then it doesn't matter that there are pixel elements in them, everything gets just upscaled blurry like an analogue signal. Or so.
That's my explanation. It is what it is, 1080p output.
I have no energy on commenting further on this. Just no.
Agree to disagree or so.

Here are a few more.
Some TV's are better about upscaling 1080p to 4K content than others, it's not a black and white thing.
Here are a few more.
Imagine still charging PS Players the same price for this subpar Version
Ah good to know it at least exists! I'm truly nowhere in the game still (not even to where the backer beta ended), so my character choices have been very limited. I'll just keep trudging along and hope I see it happen!
Aside from that and some other iffy things/bugs, I'm loving this game. Definitely no offense to the localization team (because some of stuff like this would be out of their hands), but a lot of the writing feels like Suikoden 2 in the best and oddest ways. At times, it's so flat, but then it just ramps up to completely unnecessarily over the top and I love it. Just... it's kinda cozy, yeah? Like I'm just hopping back into a PS1 game from ages ago. Combat has been fine on Hard so far and I enjoy the auto battle grinding on regular enemies. Music has been mostly great, as well, but not a huge fan of having town/village themes shared between multiple places. At least the normal encounter music is great, as is the post battle music. That song is *basically* a Suikoden song and I can't be convinced otherwise.
I don't disagree that this game is definitely hyper focused on getting Suikoden fans to buy it, but unless the game takes a huge nosedive at some point, I think fans of PS1 era RPGs would find it endearing, too. The devs really need to prioritize fixing these bugs, though. Switch frame rate, tying encounter spawns to refresh rate, the issue recruiting whatever character people have said, and console resolution seem pretty major. Also, I've read about stats not working right currently? That's a big deal. But if they can tackle those quickly, this is a solid or better first entry to the (maybe) series - ignoring Rising :X
Here are a few more.
Amazing, thanks for the even better confirmation, that's a nice high res resolution right here. Thank you.
Man, I'm jealous now.

Thanks for shedding light on this. I know this won't matter to everybody, but it matters enough to me to just never buy the game unless this is addressed. The game already has enough audiovisual jank to give me pause as it is, but there's no way I'm touching it as long as the PS5 version is like this.
I was looking forward to this for years, but now I feel like I won't even bother. Oh well.
Not a factor in this case. The PS5 is upscaling the output to 4K before it hits the TV. That's the default behavior, anyway.
You probably say this because of the latest pictures made by my phone right? That's just for easily and quick and dirty spotting of the resolution with the new Xbox screenshots since I can't make a 1:1 comparison in that case.
Comparisons like this tho.
Are made with the PS5 and PC internally shot screenshots and have nothing to do with any TV.

Finally decided to jump in. Waited long enough and they claim the games are patched for the recruitment bug....so whatever.
Made it past the forest and into the first dungeon. Enjoying everything so far. This is a Suikoden-ass-Suikoden game lol

Legit sent this word for word in a text to a friend yesterday lol
Anyone else in Australia having the same problem? I backed the Switch physical version and so I've got a digital key in the Yetee store, BUT when I try to redeem it on the eShop, I get error code 2813-0055 ("the item corresponding to the code you entered is not currently available"). It's well and truly April 21 here in Australia, so it should be part of that 72-hour early access, right?
I successfully redeemed my game on Thursday when I entered the code on my account on Nintendo's website, maybe that'll work?
I'm not from Australia, but I do seem to recall hearing people were having some issues with the code and the eShop that I didn't have.
Hmm, I'm in an interesting dilemma then, I can play it through Gamepass, but only Switch/PS5 have physical copies and are compromised in comparison...
I got to the (spoiler about 10 hours in)

This game was made for me. The rest are you are just lucky you get to play it too.
