Current Events > There is a demo for the new Theatrhythm final fantasy game out on ps4/switch.

(+) Yeah! (+)

It's pretty great.

i'm so bad at these type of games

The game is okay but honestly I can't play more than one rhythm game at a time and I regularly play Project Diva.

Game feels pretty normal on the "harder" difficulty. It's at least not like "OH MY GOD WHAT THE FUCK" like playing Taiko 8*-9* songs, but that game kinda needs it's own controller and a DS4 really kind of sucks.

Played through all the demo yesterday. I love it. Pre-ordering it tonight. I forgot how much fun I had playing the 3DS one.

I might just do the 70 dollar version. The 100 is really steep and some of the song packs I just don't really care about. I gotta do some number crunching and figure out the best value for me.

Beginner was too easy. Expert (I think that's the next level) is a little too easy as well, EXCEPT i pretty much always fail when I have to do the two sticks with them going towards each other (one facing down, the other up) but I have no problems with any other notes. The next level up was pretty tough.

Unlocked FF14 first and man, playing Nemesis was awesome.

oh shit I gotta get this demo, I loved the 3DS game.

It's got Mobius music!

I think there's something like 30 songs in the demo. It's a decent amount of content.

Neat will have to try. Probably won't buy it. Not huge into music games. But would be good for a nostalgia dose with the old songs

If I like this demo enough I'll probably get that $100 version. <_<

I set my PS5 up to download it, now I just gotta wait to get off work today haha.

The $100 version is just all the dlc right?

Looks like Season Pass 1, 2, and 3. And 27 'bonus' tracks I guess that comes with either deluxe version (I guess one version is just season pass 1, and another version is pass 1-3).

Look for the digital deluxe songs here for ones that aren't part of the DLC and part of the deluxe versions.

For Theathrythm it seems fine, it's just Taiko no Tatsujin that stops making sense you when you're doing all the harder songs on Hard and Expert. Like I jumped into Blinded by Light on Expert almost immediately with 0 effort and I assume Ultimate won't be too tough either.

FAKE EDIT: Okay, Blinded by Light on Ultimate is "hard", but it's 90% a skill diff. issue and it feels like I can practice to get better, and not that I need to get a $50 drum peripheral to play it the right way.

I enjoyed it. I will probably get the $100 version of this game because I'm a dumbass.

And how does it factor in to the overall kingdom hearts story? Kidding of course, but does anyone else find it odd you had to play a similar game for some overall story filler for KH?

Rhythm games somehow make me have worse rhythm.
Only one I was ever good at was Patapon

FFRK music!

Only super notable song I think is missing:

Its fun though I feel like I need to adjust that damn tracking bar during travel songs >__>

If you have both, get the PS4 version lol

I tried both, PS4 loaded so much faster l, looked a lot cleaner, etc. And this is a game you will likely restart songs a lot, so yeah lol

As a fan of the 3DS games and even that Kingdom Hearts one, this is pretty incredible.

Tag for later

I was worried how to controls would be coming from a touchscreen game (especially the Field Songs) but they did a great job with it... Really enjoyed the demo and can't wait to get the game now...

Did anyone manage to defeat the guard scorpion on let the battles begin?

Seems impossible even with lvl 30 characters and a perfect combo I can only just barely make it to the guard scorpion I don't get much time to attack it at all.

how the fuck do you pronounce theatrhythm >_>

They added buttons in Curtain Call. The Touch gameplay is fun and I still love it, but the button is frankly just superior.

I haven't been able to do it. I think there was one more challenge I couldn't get done.

I can't do the Odin one in FF13 either. I think some of these are just impossible with level 30 characters.
