STAR OCEAN THE DIVINE FORCE is, in my opinion, a very good game. Therefore, I don't fully understand why so many reviews are negative. I don't think the game itself is as bad as the reviews describe it. Primarily, it's an action game focused on story and exploration, and partially on combat, as combat is a key element of exploration. The combat system, story, and characters are decent in my opinion. Of course, I'm fully aware that it's not a newer title; I'd classify it as an older one, but that doesn't necessarily disqualify it from being a good game. The combat system also allows for upgrading existing skills and acquiring new ones, thus providing the player with new possibilities. The game itself also allows you to choose your character, as you usually play in a team with more than one character, so you can choose which one you want to play. Honestly, after finishing the game, I couldn't find any elements to complain about. Overall, I enjoyed the game and there were no major performance issues. Therefore, I believe the game is greatly underrated and criticized excessively, as it's not that bad. I understand it may not be completely perfect, but that doesn't mean a player can't have fun with it. The time I spent with it was truly enjoyable.

Story (7/10) It's good. Some references to older games are there. You can choose between two main charaacters and by doing so, there are minor differences. The group splits up a few times where you experience the story with the main character you choose at the beginning. I do not like this gimmick. Graphics (6/10) Battle animations look flashy. Environment (outside of citys) look a bit bland and looks out of focus (in the sense of not sharp). It feels like there are only a few character animations which are used over and over again. Not bad per se, but noticable. Gameplay (5/10) Fun action-driven battle. Crafting etc. islocked behind a certain character, which I somehow missed. Hence, I didn't have access to that feature until late game. Crafting etc. is too RNG-dependent. Mini-game is fun. Exploring is meh. Sound (7/10) Music is better than I expected to be honest. Sound Effects remind me of earlier installments. Performance/Configuration/Settings (5/10) First start up took ~20 minutes, because shaders need to be pre-compiled first. After that subsequent start ups doesn't need to to do it again. However, if graphics card drivers are updated, then you need to it again. Couple of crashes. The last one was bitter, because I nearly beat a post-game boss when the game crashed. I got salty and I de-installed the game afterwards. Verdict Mixed rating with a lean to a positive one.

The latest star ocean adventure...this game back to basic with 2 protagonist but the story concept still same,people from advanced planet stranded on medieval planet. so first the Good: - Combat is fast and real time - Duma really make the combat more fun - Duma make exploration fun - many playable character with different weapon play style The Bad : - number one is Poor PERFORMANCE especially on area like Cottorinth Region and Nihlbet Ancient coil..i hope tri-ace care more about their game..don't just release a game and move on..u guys need to fix,optimize and make patch to make the game better -Text in this game too small and no setting to change text size. -Blurry images with ,i need to change resolution to 1440p to make it looks better -in game character looks worse than character art. - Menu interface slow and confusing especially inventory everything else is average early 2000 jrpg style i hope Tri-Ace took more time for next star ocean to optimize the game..i hope next star ocean game focus more in space not just recyle story people from advanced planet stranded to medieval planet

Mixed reviews, maybe. I'd say "Fair enough". It's not the best one of the franchise, but it's far from the worst one too. I just finished it and had a blast! Post-game dungeons remaining and I'll be tackling them! I've got no issue coming back for more, the battle system is fun and quick! :) It may be unpolished, voice acting can be a tad weird, but not gonna lie, it's the first protagonist (Raymond) that doesn't get annoying or overdo the "nice guy" thing. His character growth is interesting and the story, while not groundbreaking by any means, is true to a Star Ocean style and is worth experiencing. If you ask me? Worth it! If anything, wait for a good price before getting it, but after 65 hours, I'm still in and enjoying it.
