Best Settings
Recommended Settings
| Option | Recommended Setting |
|---|---|
| Gameplay | Action Focused [Best] Story Focused [For Beginners] |
| Game Performance | Frame Rate [Best] Graphic [Art Quality Focused] |
| Camera Settings | Camera Sensitivity (Vertical & Horizontal): 3〜6 It is better to match the Vertical and Horizontal Camera Sensitivity but if you are bothered by the shaking of the vertical shaking of the camera, decreasing the vertical sensitivity is also an option. |
Start From Action Focused Gameplay
Action Focused is recommended because you can freely fight as you want and enjoy more action. It is recommended to start from Action Focused then if you feel that it is difficult, move to Story Focused.
Difficulty (Gameplay Mode) GuideFocusing On Frame Rate Makes The Movement Smoother
Prioritizing Frame Rate lessens the motion blur (blur from moving perspectives) making the battle have quicker and smoother movements helping you with the controls as well.
Early Game GuideIncrease The Camera Sensitiveness
The default setting for Camera Sensitivity is 2 for both Vertical and Horizontal. By moving it a bit faster, the movement of perspective will be smoother. If you move it to a number around 20, the movement will be too fast to keep up so keeping it from 6 to 12 is recommended.
Turn Off Motion Blur To Prevent Motion Sickness
Ver1.03 Update implemented a new setting to adjust motion blur strength. If you easily get motion sickness from screen shake, turn motion blur strength to 0 to turn it off.
