    Big fates such as Behe, Titan, Scara are impossible on PS3.

    TLDR: If you want the inferior version, go for PS3.

    That'd be an opinion and mine is in stark contrast to it. I find it SUPER easy to heal on a controller.

    This is basically my take on the keyboard/controller argument. It might be a little easier to heal people at random fates on a keyboard and mouse, but it most certainly easier to heal people in groups with the controller (it did take a little getting use to it though). Working as a Scholar, this comes in handy because we don't have the big AoE heals like White Mages, so you have to switch targets often to keep everyone alive.

    I'd say if you have a gaming rig then obviously stay on PC, but if you have a mid-low range PC or don't mind slightly bad graphics (not terrible but definitely not top range PC graphics) then get a PS3 copy. Also I find playing on PS3 a lot more relaxing than hunched over a desk. Not to mention that if you buy the PS3 version you get the PS4 version for free and that will eliminate any graphical differences when released but you do have to buy a PS4. It's personal preference to be honest and the only real way to know is to try it, but the PS3 isn't as bad as some may make out. Also an SSD really does help with every issue other than graphics and although they are fairly expensive for what they are you can get a bargain.

    There is *currently* no mouse/keyboard control on PS3, but you can hook up a USB keyboard to "chat". Devs have said they will look into adding it at a later time. I play on both PC and PS3 myself and there is very little I cannot do on either system. Might not be the greatest for fate parties, but then I hardly ever do those since... well.. they are boring as *#!!. Graphics are decent, not awesome, just decent but they don't bother be whatsoever.

    Troll OP, but I'll bite.
    The PC version makes the PS3 version look terrible. But then it is objectively terribly in the first place so that's not hard.

    Why would you think I'm trolling? I asked a simple question because I'm genuinely curious. Not every simply made thread is an attempt at trolling

    I've done all the big FATE that people have issues with on both PC and PS3(Odin, Behe,Scara) without having to deal with the boss disappearing all that often if at all in some cases. Shame Odin crashed Hyperion before we could kill him last time I fought him. Plus as I said the issue present in these FATE are present on both PS3 and PC.

    Another one of these threads...

    It's simple, do you have a good gaming PC? Then get the PC version. No? Get the PS3 version, and then later on you can upgrade to the PS4 version.
