Cloud Monday - White Knight Chronicles 2: White Knight Chronicles 1 Remastered Part 3

This is the third and final video of my look at the White Knight Chronicles 1 Remaster that you can play in White Knight Chronicles 2. Like before, i'm streaming the game via the PlayStation Plus Premium streaming tier. The videos in this series aren't designed to show the game being played from start to finish. Instead, my aim is to show how playable the game is via the streaming service. 

In this video i spend over an hour unable to progress from one side of a map to another. As i mention in the video, if i was playing this in my own time i may've given up on the right side and tried the left side. But as i was recording this and it was already a long video, i decided to end it. At the very least, we all now know what awaits us on the left side.

As for the streaming experience, we did get a grey streak across the screen. I don't know for sure but it felt like a missing frame, and it was only there for a second at most. we did get artifacting at various points and only a couple of times did it get noticeable and possibly get in the way of gameplay. And there were instances where it felt like the streaming resolution went down a notch or two. Again, nothing really that got in the way of gamplay. Tho, the game itself kinda got in the way now and then with screen tearing, slowdown, and a boss character i couldn't get past but also wasn't sure if i should be fighting or not.

This is the second video of my look at the White Knight Chronicles 1 Remaster that you can play in White Knight Chronicles 2. Like before, i'm streaming the game via the PlayStation Plus Premium streaming tier. The videos in this series aren't designed to show the game being played from start to finish. Instead, my aim is to show how playable the game is via the streaming service. 

This game played great via cloud streaming. However, there is a situation where it becomes unplayable due to the PS3. the game used to have a big online component, but that's no longer online. But the PS3 gets stuck looking for a firmware update. head to the end of the video to see this in action.

Cloud Monday - White Knight Chronicles 2: White Knight Chronicles 1 Remastered

I'm back playing White Knight Chronicles. But this time it's not the same game. I found White Knight Chronicles 2 on the PlayStation Plus Store, that's the start of the video, and decided to try out the remastered version of White Knight Chronicles that comes with it.

Watch the video and join me in commenting about the changes between the two versions of the game we've played and also see the few connection issues i had whilst playing this PlayStation Plus Premium Cloud Streaming game.

Once again, and i imagine this'll be the case going forward, it wasn't straight forward getting the game to load. Simply put, i was unable to launch the game because of an unexpected error. I then restored licenses. This actually attempted to load the game but timed out. i then restarted my PS4 and then the game worked. This video starts from that point. 

But that wasn't the only issue i had. White Knight Chronicles is a game that had a robust online component, I didn't think it was still online but as it was so heavily marketed on the game page i tried it out. The game gets stuck. The PS3 tries to check for an update, but is unable to find one. However, there's no way out of this menu. it's over top of the game's own checks. the game knows it's offline and would let you progress. it's the PS3 that's stopping. and so it stopped me and i called an end to Part 2.

Overall, streaming the game went fine. over two videos, i only came across 1 thing that could've been because of streaming, and that was a simple grey blob that appeared for a frame or two. the game's slow pace and bright colors mean that it plays well. If you were to ask me if i thought the game was good, i'd honestly say i'm probably still a little too early in to score it. but i think it's worth a go if you have the time free. It took 2 videos to get to the opening cut scene and past day 1.

Cloud Monday - White Knight Chronicles

Today i was finally able to start the Cloud Gaming series. I had hoped to have started this a week or two ago but i had been having trouble with PlayStation Plus Premium.

Before i recorded this video, I had tried once before, but i couldn't get the game to stream. I had previously emailed Sony Help and they gave me a couple of suggestions. some stuff regarding cache and routers that didn't help. what did help was going into account settings on my PS4 and restoring licenses. for this gaming session, it seemed to clear things up somewhat.

But, as you'll see in the video, i was having other trouble with the service and so the first 15 minutes or so is me showing the trouble i had.

I want it to be clear, the point of this series is to show the games, but to also show and talk about the gaming experience of playing a game from the cloud.
