1:12 I feel the need to point out that the video isn't showing the actual running speed. FSR, even on the DS, doesn't look or run that bad and everyone should play it because heck yeah Flower, Sun and Rain!
There's even a later chapter where the characters start mocking Sumio for having to run further and further across Lospass. Finally, he (SPOILERS) steals a bike. I loved that it was Twin Peaks + Groundhog Day, except the point of Groundhog Day was that Phil becomes a better person by the end and in FSR Sumio just gets more and more bitter about the assholes he has to deal with. Fantastic game.
big problem with good weird games is: the general public doesn't buy it, because it's not the formulaic genre of racing, or fighting, or whatever. Then a guy like Suda51 starts to make open worlds and fanservice games, because like everyone else, he needs to put food on the table.
The bomb never exactly change places, the game really hates you by blocking your path and makes you wonder, why I have to go through other people ordeal over and over again.
1:36 That is blatantly untrue, this game is literally a sequel to The Silver Case, which was remade and thus made publicly accessible 6 months prior to the release of this video. I'm not one for gatekeeping but you'd have to literally not even read the plot summary of half of his games to say that. Even being aware of Moonlight Syndrome or The Silver Case negates that statement, let alone if you played them.
Well, the new Suda 51 remade old Suda 51's The Silver Case, which FSR is a spiritual spin-off of. While Austin explain most of the games on this section well, I think he didn't do it as well here. Granted the game is hard to talk about, but Austin could've touched upon things like his history with Suda games (and FSR), or give a background of kind of games old Suda makes. His argument about "punk rock" makes no sense.
Its actually a sequel to Silver Case (Mondo being a clone of Kodai and Peter being Tetsugoro Kusabi) and a prequel to Killer7 (Edo McCallister having been killed off by Emir Parkreimer)
0:04 Did someone say DeadlyPremonition. F,S,R is super bizarre, but strangely satisfing... Until the last day, then you get Mind f**ed... Probably one of Suda51's best works. So weird, but interesting.
I really hope FSR will be remastered like Silver Case was. The DS version's graphics are so puke it's insufferable, and this is coming from someone who is not a graphics freak.
Why? The ds version is literally the same game, but on the ds you can use the touch screen to input numbers and can access the case at any time, which let's the player save, make annotations and read the guide at any moment. It is the best AND only version playable in english.
@@Rihcterwilker Is not the same pal, i have tested both, the mood, art direction and style are completely lost on the basic DS graphics also the music is in a much higher quality. Unluckily if you don't speak japanese you are out of luck.
@@GenesHand Of course, the original has filters and non-compressed music, but going from a ps2 to a ds, making it to be almost a 1:1 port, it's serviceable enough to be considered a good port.

That is indeed a fact, I have no doubt. Flower, Sun, and Rain is honestly a really charming game.
FSR is my favorite video game of all time
Starting my first playthrough as I lay in bed at 1 am.
did you like it@@PLATESWEEPER

By the time of The 25th Ward Sumio is totally out of it and bitter as hell (well, more than he already was considering his backstory)
"Exploring this island, looking for this bomb isn't...fun" INSTANTLY interested in playing this game, holy shit.
Suda's pre-No More Heroes stuff is absolutely fascinating! I cannot wait to eventually sink my teeth into The Silver Case and this!

@@WildPotatoIndustries o hai
This video is a perfect intro to this game. Leaves you completely unspoiled while making the game seen compelling as hell, nice job!
“i can’t help but wonder what the old suda would do with the new suda’s budget”
No More Heroes III, that’s what.
Lol

I love this series.
with suda's love for joy division, new order, the cure and the smiths, i think "video game post punk" is more fitting :p
This seems kind of amazing?
Saw the graphics and ordered immediately
you don't find the bomb till the very end of the game.
must be a while since austin last played
Does anybody know the background music used for this video?
Great video👍 A short but still good introduction into the game.

Btw the DS version sucks ass compared to the original PS2 one.

I disagree because punk rock sucks
