The Jerma Effect

[@gremlinman9724]

i do the same thing. i don't know if it's a result of grayfruit or if i like grayfruit because of it, but holy shit, it's an addiction.

[@the_real_Kurt_Yarish]

Grayfruit might already know this, but the polygons warbling in the first three King's Field games is an effect shared by most original PlayStation games. It's due to the way the PlayStation computes the position for certain graphical features. It basically used a math function that was easier to compute but less precise under certain conditions compared to other consoles' 3D rendering.

[@AjaxGb]

Yes, the PlayStation had two major graphical limitations. Firstly, it used very limited precision when rendering triangles, snapping each vertex to a pixel on the screen. This made geometry jump around as fractions rounded one way or the other. Second, it did not have true perspective-correct texture mapping, only affine texture mapping, causing textures to slide around on top of the already shaky geometry. If you are interested in the difference between perspective and affine texture mapping: The texture file itself can be thought of as a square. When a triangle is angled away from the camera, you would expect the texture to shrink with distance. This can be thought of as morphing the square texture into a trapezoid, with one wide side and one small side. The PlayStation couldn't do that. At best, it could morph the texture into a parallelogram. Any given triangle could only render the texture at a single scale, with no shrinking across it. So if you had a rectangular wall made out of two big triangles (very common on other systems), and the player looked at it from an angle, there would be a visible seam in the middle where triangle A approximated the correct perspective one way and triangle B did it another, and things would look very wrong. The usual workaround was splitting the wall into a grid of little triangles instead of two big ones. That way, while each individual triangle could only render the texture at a single scale, taken together they would look more-or-less correct. That's why you get a kind of zig-zaggy look on surfaces in many PS1 games.

[@qwertyqeys]

I beat King's Field 1 and 2 with no walkthroughs since starting this video, gonna leave my thoughts here on KF 1 and 2 in this comment. King's Field 1 is like really impressive for a company's first game, it's kind of clunky and rudimentary, but it's got some real smart design chops at times, and the story while sparse in the beginning starts going a few interesting places that make up the bones for what ends up becoming a really solid story in later entries. Seeing the moonlight sword in its first incarnation was really a magical moment, and my only real criticism is that the game never explains that some swords have a magic attack if you press square at specific frames of your sword swing. King's Field 2 on the other hand is just impressive all-around, like there were moments that had me saying "this is amazing even by today's standards" where if you've got the patience to dig in and really interrogate each aspect of the game, you'll find a well of cool secrets, interesting lore, and weird plot twists that MAKE NO SENSE TO AMERICAN PLAYERS ON RELEASE BECAUSE THEY REFERENCE KING'S FIELD 1 WHICH NEVER RELEASED IN AMERICA. Also the localization is weird, the protag in KF1 is "John Alfred Forester" but in KF2 they refer to him as "King Alfred" and it gets even weirder in King's Field 3 because you play as his son but he's also referred to by his middle name??? Guy's named "Austin Lyle Forester" but they refer to him exclusively as "Lyle" is this like a royalty thing? And then also King's Field 3 has a prequel demo that released a few months after the game's release exclusively in japan which bridges the gap between KF2 and 3, only released at specific game conventions in a disc sleeve. This also has an english patch, but messes a few things up, like calling the king "John" and referring to the protag of KF2 as "Alfred" when his name was never Alfred, it was always "Aleph" or "Alexander" which made the transition from the demo into 3 extremely confusing, because there was suddenly this alfred guy in the throne? I had to look up John Forester's full name to figure out Alfred was referring to him. Anyway, I'll watch more after I beat KF3, wish me luck on my "Lyle" quest

[@austenaraiza2169]

Oh, great arbiter of old ps games. How went your extended media quest?

[@qwertyqeys]

@@austenaraiza2169 oh yeah I left another comment about this, I'll just copy paste that here. So I just beat king's field 3. I think 2 is still my favorite, but 3 is a REALLY strong entry to me, both from a gameplay standpoint and as a cap-off to the story the three games were building. The convenience features like the item that shows an automap and the ZELDA MACGUFFINS doubling as teleporters to fountains that regen MP and HP was a GODSEND and some of the magic you unlock in the late game feels phenomenal. KF3 really does feel like an achievement for from software in my eyes. For example, you found the hidden shield room in KF3, but unlike 1 and 2, the hidden shield room also has ANOTHER secret door which leads to an empty room with ANOTHER secret door, and this leads to a hallway with a locked chest and a ceiling trap that drops a new skeleton, and then would you believe there's yet another hidden door in this hallway? But they don't even rest there because they also put traps in the walls that stab you with spears (I only found that last door thanks to a late-game secret reveal item, the spears did kill me). Even the magic system is expanded, with magic learned by leveling each individual element and having one more spell per element than the previous game. Everything is a one up on the previous game, up to the point that there's now three legendary swords, one for each game. I will say though that while I was going to get mad at grayfruit's comment at the start of 3 that "these games so far have not been that good" I realized that while I enjoyed them, I also kept bouncing off king's field 1 back before I was put on adderall, something about it was fascinating enough to pull me in but couldn't keep my patience. Then again, this video was the entire reason I decided to load up king's field 1 and finish it in the first place. What I will say is that the biggest motivation for playing one of these games is knowing exactly how good the game gets in the final hours. It's harder to sell this for KF1, but 2 and 3 really hit the highs we expect of modern from software, with the gameplay options expanding, the environments becoming easier to navigate, HP and MP regen becoming a regular late game buff. I decided I'd stream king's field 4 though so I don't burn myself out on it like I did with the first 3 games for a bit, this is fine as I've got plenty other retro fromsoft games to play on my own time. I really do love these games without any asterisks or clauses, and I'm glad this video gave me the motivation to complete them. now that I'm confident my comment has gone below the read more limit, skill issue grayfruit skill issue neener neener you got skeleboned get skeleboned oh also, additional note. I played the first 3 games with retroachievements hooked up, and in each game they've made an achievement called "guardian of the shield vol.

I liked it when I got my mind boggled.

[@JAzzWoods-ik4vv]

Fruit man starts the second game with no expectations at all, but I think is the game he vibed most with

[@stewartcole8879]

[@Baby_boodle]

11:41 - John Darksoul made me do an actual spit-take, omfg xD

[@givadiva9289]

Holy shit this was edited by Gexuma?!? Love his stuff! Glad to see him getting some recognition

[@TheOmegaGamer]

I'm fairly certain that the King's Field 3 is voiced by Matthis Bossi the Isaac Narrator and this is scary

[@MarcBrightside]

The faceless, vaguely humanoid caricatures you come across in these games bring to mind LSD: Dream Emulator more than anything particularly 'Soulsy'.

33:42 YANMA PUSHED ME OFF! 35:21 _oooOOO I coulda been using that_

[@rainphee]

something really awful happened on my way back home so i'm super grateful that mr. grayfruit dropped a feature length video to distract me, i really needed it

[@christopherstroup8906]

Why did that sound like the disclaimer for the effects of pharmaceutical drugs on a commercial, in the beginning of the video

[@tuck3771]

Ross from Friends: this guy’s PlayStation can produce mind-boggling effects

[@e-jesus7401]

[@hydrasent563]

[@CanisInfernus]

My mind has been 100% certifiably boggled by this video

42 minutes and 33 seconds in, he finds the technique required to destroy 95% of all enemies in the kingsfield series.

[@fauxdude9756]

finally a game that captures the true essence of the skeleton

[@Hometownhero-re1go]

1:21 goblin ass laugh

[@ExtrnalSorce2]

With the power of the PlayStation Jerma might be able to finally cross into our realm and become a real boy

[@dabois8280]

I feel like most of the texture jank back in the day was unnoticed with the fact most people played on the classic box tv

[@liftedlegend710]

I love how the cutscenes in early ps1 games where just 2d pictures that they made in a 3d environment

[@PixelCherries]

New Fruit? One and a half hour? Edited by the queen herself Gexuma? You guys are spoiling us

[@jacuul6735]

You mention it a bit at 1:03:44, but that's not entirely true, all of the games utilize the long corridors to load the next area, that's why there were so many long and slow hallways in the previous games. It was one of the first games to not really have any loading screens unless you fast travel (via the Star Gate in the first game, or Ichrius items in the second) I have these on PS1 still and play them from time to time and you don't really get the "loading freezes" like here, I think that's an issue with the emulator. This was the first game I ever played, I still have a guide I printed off like, 15 years ago from GameFaqs and always took pride when I knew more than the guide, as if it wasn't just written by some random dude

[@takacsadam2850]

i really love how primitive these graphics are... the same console that brought us Nightmare Creatures, Metal Gear Solid and Crash Bandicoot

[@itsClaptrap]

grayfruit raising an eyebrow on the strafe movement being the triggers reminds me of Daggerfalls skeevy ass movement controls like who makes the AD is WASD *turn* left and right, and not actually just move that way?? ik it's old PC game philosophy of what movement was supposed to be in a FPS but yeugh

[@hen6257]

30:10 1:05:10 1:09:55 I love surprise skeletons

[@petergriscom3431]

I thought he was going to say that his guy's hitbox was the size of a king's field.

[@waynea2958]

Grayfruit.. I just want you to know I found you some years ago with your peggle playthrough and I gave you a follow because you are genuinely funny and you make me happy. I get excited every time you upload a new video. ALSO, you have the most attractive voice I have ever heard. Thank you for your blessings.

[@SushiiSyndrome]

Yo Gexuma on main, let's goooo. Grats fam..also nice vid fruit man

[@Jaydenbb5]

In the second game I couldn't get over the random sound of steel bars being dropped just because of how out of place it is.

[@DukeOfBurlap]

King's Field 3 gravedigger has been added to list.

[@strikermodel]

I would love to see the reaction of the developers of the first and second games to how grayboi responded to the these. They would probably feel so much pride seeing him go from hating the first game to having a genuinely good time with the sequal.

[@sentientblender]

YOOOO OFFICIAL GEXUMA EDITS LFG

[@vincentpey3929]

I can watch this without my glasses and it doesnt change a thing about how i see this game.

[@scobbis6134]
