Just booted it up on switch, went with that for the portability I guess.
Is there a soft focus filter on? It looks very soft, annoyingly so?
Docked too.That's one weird thing about the handheld version. Looks like someone smeared a vaseline filter all over it.
I'm in docked mode. It looks like someone took a photo and applied a soft focus filter very liberally to it. I should have just went with my One X or PS4 Pro...I fucked upThat's one weird thing about the handheld version. Looks like someone smeared a vaseline filter all over it.

That sucks man.. Sometimes it pays to preorder.. I preordered the day before from best buy.Passaic NJ store closes at 8pm and the one in Clifton (which closes at 9pm) does not have it either.
This softness has a unnecessary glow to it.I am probably among the minority here, but I like the "softness" of its graphics since the 360 days.
To be fair it might not be sub 30fps like I mentioned. I don't count frames, but it just feels really jittery and sub 30. But again, it could be because I was jumping in and out of fights where the framerate is much higher.Digital foundry needs to do a comparison for this game. I had the PS4 version in hand, watched a video that showed a 40-60fps frame rate on Switch. Said fuck it, I'd rather have this portable. Then I read this page and see sub-30fps being thrown around on switch.
Especially since I'm just here for the new content I beat the game 5 times and got halfway through the ps3 version being able to fast forward through the first half sounds great to me.It isn't like it's unheard of. The recent re-releases of the various Final Fantasy titles all let you enable different cheats for making enemy encounters much easier, disabling random encounters, speeding up the game, etc. Having the option to make a game easier for those who want it is nice.
Yea I've completed the games multiple times with a Brady games guide. Mid the broniac each TimeYeah, that will alleviate some of that.
All Titles is still super easily missed though. That covers things like having all weapons (some weapons are literally sold in a town once, you leave and can't get them again), stuff like that. Vesperia is a minefield of missables.
The ones listed in the Extra Items page of the item menu as ____ Bonus Title XX are the DLC ones and the ones listed as Customize Pack: ____ are early unlocks for the ones you can get by completing side quests, I believe.So these free outfits I got, they are not the outfits/titles I could have got in game right? These are totally seperate?
Yeah I think that's why I got it on the switch as wellI bought the Switch version of the game this morning even knowing that it would probably have some issues. Honestly, I just wanted to support Tales games on the Switch and this feels like my way of telling Bamco to continue to do this. That being said I also did buy it on the PS4 just now because I wanted it in full 60 FPS and all.
A simple Reshade setting works wonder too.The game looks soft even if you ditch post process AA and go for straight up 4XMSAA on PC.
It's just the way the engine is.
Yeah, some parts of the game just didn't age well, including combat and cutscenes direction/animation.
Are you on PC? Use Reshade and simply turn on Clarity effect only if you still want to retain the original artstyle/color scheme.
OFF
ON
Or if you want something stronger, use Curve
Can anyone hear audio coming from the center, rear right or rear left channel? im kinda shocked that a definitive edition lacks a feature that was present in the original 2008(?) release.
Did you connect through wired but still using DS4? I'm using a PS4 controller through DS4 and I just wonder which is the problem. The controller or DS4?
It's not 30 FPS consistently. It drops below that constantly. It's extremely apparent as soon as you get control right when you start the game, and especially when you enter battles with the contrast between the two. I'm not sure how you're not noticing it because it's right there. It's not enjoyable to play.
However, handheld does not have any of these issues.
I'm only like an hour into the Switch version so far (haven't gotten to the world map yet), but it seems fine to me so far. Battles have all been 60FPS so far, and while the framerate definitely fluctuates a lot in the field, it isn't bad enough that it makes it feel bad to play, it least not for me.Is the Switch version really this broken? I have a Pro, but kinda wanted it on the Switch.. i know battles are meant to be 60fps and travel 30fps on Switch, but is it running that poorly against those targets?
It's much more noticeable in handheld though but it's apparent in docked too, yes. I guess I was more distracted with how badly the game was running and the frame stuttering to pay attention.

Hard mode is so stupid. Yuri is too slow to not take hits when attacking and the enemy HP is way too high. Eventually you die before they do.
I'll switch it back from normal once I get more party members.
Alright, this might only help a couple people, but I managed to figure out how to chain-load reshade (for the curves effect in my case) and special-k for better framepacing. If anyone is interested...
Install Reshade first. Install it (D3D10+) with only Curves (or clarity, unless you really wanna go wild with effects). Rename dxgi.ini to ReShade.ini and dxgi.dll to ReShade64.dll. Move all the reshade related files to and the reshade-shaders folder to:
My Documents\My Mods\SpecialK\PlugIns\ThirdParty\ReShade
Then extract the contents of SK_TVFix.7z to the ToV directory. Boot the game and open up special k menu with ctrl-shift-backspace. Activate the microstutter fix, you should set a frame limit, and go to the plugins accordion to activate the reshade plugin files you just moved. Set reshade to "early". Reboot the game. You should be able to now open both the Reshade settings with Home (in some older cases it might be Shift+F2?) and also the Special K window with the Ctrl-Shift-Backspace.
