Tetsuya Nomura has said that Stranger of Paradise is “a story of an angry man” and “even though this is a Final Fantasy game, it doesn’t feel like one”. He’s quite correct, we can play all the other Final Fantasy games, the demo for Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin is corrupt and does not work. Perhaps this is some sort of cunning trick to get us in the “angry man” mindset of the protagonist.

“We’re aware of issues being experienced while trying to download and play #StrangerOfParadise #FinalFantasy Origin Trial Version,” tweeted the official Twitter account for the game. “We’re working to resolve this issue and will tweet an update as soon as we can, we appreciate your patience.”

Oops.

“While it is Final Fantasy, it feels different—but there’s no doubt that the blood of Final Fantasy runs through its veins,” said Tetsuya Nomura, Creative Producer for Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin. “We’ve undertaken the challenge of finding this difficult middle ground for this mature and stylish title. We need a little time until we’re able to complete it, and while the battle system is a bloody one, it does link to the story, so I hope you’ll use this opportunity to give it a try.”

“I’m truly happy to be involved with a new FINAL FANTASY, and a title connected to its origin at that,” said Fumihiko Yasuda, Head of Team Ninja. “Using the feedback that the players provide after playing the trial version, all of us at Team NINJA will work to make this a title that meets the expectations of not only action game fans, but also FINAL FANTASY series fans around the world!”

The trailer for the game has launched this years E3 catchphrase, joining the ranks of Giant Enemy Crab and Riiidddge Racccer is the word chaos which is used by the main character many, many times in the trailer.
