Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin gameplay
Here's a Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin gameplay video so you can see what's what in visual form!
Weapons in the game include greatswords, daggers, spears and more. Abilities and jobs can be acquired in the game via the 'Job Tree'. Magic is, of course, part of the action here, and things like armour can be given an added boost from collecting items you find around the world.
As for combat, remembering attack patterns will be key with bosses, but each of them will have their own style you will need to quickly adapt to. It's a souls-like game that isn't quite as difficult as others.
The game also features co-op with up to three people, so choose your team wisely if you plan on starting this adventure with friends.
