Digital Devil Saga is an odd duck, it uses field rendering and I mean the oldest incarnation of it in 2007 and on top of that it runs at spotty 30 frames ... oh well at least it looks pretty, i guess.

The games that used this particular engine have always had bad reputation for having too much motion blur, now the thing is most of that motion blur is produced by the TV's and not by the game (this game has very little to none of it for the most part SMT Nocturne on the other hand really does have an abundance of blur in it during exploration).

It's not for no reason either, this game has kind of an inconsistent framerate especially during spells so it skips a field of few literally every time anything happens.

Here I didn't bother to cut out the repeated frames/moments where the fieldorder goes awry cause I'd be here all day. instead I applied the same filter as in the previous video except I rendered it at 60 frames instead and this actually seems like the better idea now that I look at it. all of the full frames are still there just surrounded with motion blur frames, however to human eye it's barely noticeable.

This method I can actually recommend it's fairly painless to use and gives good results.

And yes I am doing terribly, I haven't played it in a while and was half asleep.
