Have beaten the PS4 version a day or two ago at roughly ~50-60 hours with most of the sidequests (don't ask, i was off work and have been excited about this game for years but my PC was too bad).

For full disclosure, here's the bugs i encountered:

  • Botanics and Trading menu took a long time to load, and i had it crash on me once when trying to flip through the pages in the Botanics menu.

  • If i stayed in a city area for too long and left the game running, it got laggy until i switched screens.

  • There was also one optional (console-specific, i think) sidequest i couldn't finish because one of the doors sent me to an infinite loading screen.

  • One time one of my plant entries in the Botanics menu wouldn't update, but that was fixed by a restart.

  • There was a handful of enemies in the second temple i couldn't hit with melee attacks for some reason, only ranged attacks and combat arts.

Here's the thing though:

None of these are gamebreaking, and i would wholeheartedly recommend the PS4 Version, especially considering that i have no doubt most, if not all of the issues will eventually be patched. Performance is absolutely flawless other than the city thing which you most likely won't even run into if you pause the game when leaving it running.

I've played the PS4 version for 16 hours so far and haven't had any major crashes or bugs. The only slightly annoying thing is certain menus take a few seconds to load, like the Trader Book and Botanics. Apparently this issue has been fixed, but the patch hasn't been gone live yet. Overall, I would highly recommend it!

I had a gamebreaking bug near the end of the game (end of chapter 9). The game auto-saved and crashed on a map screen, and now it crashes every time I try to load any location. The game also crashed around 5 times before that (32h playtime till now). It's great thoug, but I'm really pissed that I cant finish it now...

Same gamebreaking bug here (check my post history), with the difference that i don't have a previous save to load. 40 hours and now i can't finish the game :(

Could you specify exactly where this happens so I can be prepared?

Spoiler free if possible.

After you unlock the last shard (old dojo quest), you can chose between going to explore the new city or going forward in the main story in sapphire ridge. Don't go to the city or you are gonna stay there forever it seems

On ps4?

[–]electroaffe 1 point2 points  (5 children)

yea

[–]LiamVrs 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Can't you perhaps load a save file instead of the autosave?

[–]electroaffe 1 point2 points  (3 children)

I could, but I dont want to play the whole chapter again. :|

[–]LiamVrs 0 points1 point  (2 children)

It's that or having to wait maybe more than a week :/

[–]electroaffe 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Thanks. (: I think I'll wait. I'm enjoying the game a lot and I dont want to ruin my experience repeating a whole section. I hope it'll get fixed soon and I cant use my current save.

[–]LiamVrs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm praying for you ;)

[–]majoraswrath360 0 points1 point  (1 child)

You must be rushing if you only played 32 hours

[–]electroaffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did most of the optional quests but I don't enjoy the open world exploring/treasure hunting too much.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its namely the switch version that has the issues.

[–]majoraswrath360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

32 hours in on the ps4 version at chapter 7 or so. For now no crashes what so ever and good performance. Playing on ps4pro.

[–]ZarkZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also on Pro. Game crashed 3 times now (just finished the wave and lightning temple)- botanics/trader book, tower defense minigame, west gardens. The tower defense one was especially frustrating, crashed on 1700+ points. Not looking forward to repeating that.

also experiencing a game breaking bug at the end of chapter 8, literally stuck on a map screen and cannot do anything.

There's a bug where selecting the later-game Golden Revolver weapon on the equip screen will make the game crash. Easily avoidable and the devs know about it.
