Star Ocean 5 Review in Progress - Better Than Star Ocean 4 or Star Ocean 3?
17Spoiler Alert - I don't think Star Ocean Integrity and Faithlessness is as bad as you've heard. My focus with today's video is to lay the foundation for Star Ocean 5's story and to begin to form a hypothesis about the overall quality of the game.
It's no mystery that the Star Ocean series houses some of my favorite RPG games.

Why You Should Watch My Star Ocean Integrity and Faithlessness Playthrough Videos?
What sets my work apart? Purpose and insight.
With every video or blog I create, my goal is to have a positive impact on the life of the viewer. I believe this drive helps us to build a stronger gaming community one soul at a time
Secondly, I've been writing game reviews for the better part of twelve years. I've had the pleasure to work with masters of the game like Dan "Shoe" Hsu. I've even created my own player-focused review system that I use to help players decide if a game is right for them. You will hear this system referenced many times through this playthrough.
I'm also curious to find out if Star Ocean 5 has the stuff to dethrone Star Ocean 2 as my favorite Star Ocean and favorite JRPG of all time.
Is Star Ocean 5 Better Than Star Ocean 3 or Star Ocean 4?
At this stage of play, it's really hard to answer whether or not Star Ocean 5 is better than Star Ocean 4. I think any game would have to work pretty hard to not be better than Star Ocean 3. And I don't say that because of the plot twist that angered every player known to man besides me. I say it because Star Ocean 3 had serious technical issues in combat and a crafting system that would make anyone pull their hair out (and I won't even bring up the camera and horribly confusing dungeons).
At this point, I'm at least willing to say that Star Ocean 5 is nowhere near as bad as I'd heard in reviews. Come to think of it, reviewers were hard on Star Ocean 4 as well. I loved that game and criticized the reviewing public for being unnecessarily harsh on a game that was better than most JPRGs of the previous two generations in my book
Is it Possible to Like Star Ocean 5 if you Hated Star Ocean 3
Absolutely. Star Ocean 5 fixes most if not all of the technical problems Star Ocean 3 had
Star Ocean 5 also brings back remnants of the leveling system from Star Ocean First Departure and Star Ocean Second Story (or Star Ocean Second Evolution if you prefer). And that is an extremely good thing.
The Star Ocean 5 Story Thus Far
We begin this episode in the Town of Sthal. Fidel, the game's many character meets up with his friend Miki to find that Sthal's enemies have sent recon scouts to gather intelligence on Sthal's defense posture in preparation for an attack
And attack the Eitalon's do. Fortunately, Fidel being trained by his father - a master swordsman - is able to help the town fight off the Eitalon troops causing them to retreat.
Fidel immediately decides that it's time to pay the capital city a visit to ask the king for reinforcements to defend his home.
