![]() ![]() There’s no sugar coating it – Stranger of Paradise’s story is the greatest most concentrated example of “so bad it’s good” that I think I’ve ever experienced in a video game. They set off on their merry way to restore four crystals in a bid to finally defeat Chaos, the evil being and final boss of the original Final Fantasy game. He meets up with four other similarly forgetful people. You play as Jack, a man thrown into the world from another reality who barely remembers anything of his past. Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin is essentially a retelling of the original Final Fantasy game, though told through an alternative “what-if” kind of scenario. But now, having played from beginning to end, while still a bit rough around the edges, Stranger of Paradise is a fantastic Final Fantasy spin-off and perhaps even one of the best. So much was against this game, and I was ready to be too. So many people I’d speak to have even forgotten this game exists beyond that first trailer. The demo wouldn’t work for several days following its upload. The first trailer was so misguided as a first impression that I’d argue it’s become a meme in and of itself. It’s remarkable that Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin is actually fantastic. ![]()
