Lots of slow down during boss battles, don't really get bothered by slow down much in general but during the anthropoid boss I had two occasions where it had around 15% hp and the game froze completely. Could be an issues there unless it was just me. Got by it without further issues and now in the fire stage.
Still thoroughly enjoying it, especially the dungeon to boss pacing so far, just a couple of issues with performance here and there.

There's also an asian multi language version coming out in july. Depending on where you live, it could be cheaper than the LRG version.
I just started the ps4 download and it says it's 2.9 gigs. I still think it's odd that the Vita version update would be so large.

I completed it twice with no issues at all which may not mean anything.
hmm might have just got unlucky then. Weird that it happened pretty much in the exact place same twice.
Man, I just started playing this again (with Hugo) on Vita and have gotten very hooked in a very short time. I already played through it on Steam (with Yunica) and bought it back when it came out on PS4 but held off on playing it again to wait for the Vita version. I kind of forgot about it since I've been on vacation (with no Vita) since mid-June. This particular era of Ys (VI, Oath, Origins) just strikes a chord with me. I love almost everything about all three games (wish they'd consider putting out Vita versions of the other two actually).
Now I've got a physical (Korean) version of this game coming in a couple of days. Ys and Dragon Quest are pretty much the only games I buy physical anymoreI try not to be a collector/pack rat, but I make an exception for my two favorite series.
Out of curiosity, what was the verdict on this port? I'm having a lot of fun with it, but I don't really tend to notice frame rates and the like. I have noticed some slowdown with the bosses, but it hasn't really bothered me so far. I've also notoced Dot Emu has pushed a couple of patches through recently. Seems they are at least attempting to treat the game well. Really glad to have almost all of my favorite series on one of my favorite platforms!

The consensus is that even the PS4 version is worse than the PC version in every way, having occasional slowdown and graphical bugs (ridiculous for a game that was low-spec even when it released in 2006) and having the controls be changed from the PC defaults with no way to reconfigure them outside of changing the button mappings in the universal system settings for the console. Vita is basically the same at half the framerate.
Well that is too bad; I guess I spoke too soon with my praise for Dot Emu. I haven't run into any graphical glitches yet, and I am satisfied with the control schemethough I do agree that contols should always be configurable. I guess it doesn't really dampen my enjoyment of the game, and I am having a great time playing it on the Vita.

uggh, I was waiting for LRG, but.........
Not like there's a disadvantage to having both physical and digital copies.

Anyone mind telling me what this game is similar to? It looks good, but I'm a bit confused by the combat system.
2D Zelda with a jump button and after Link gets coke'd up.

2d Zelda after Link did drugs, with a jump button and magic attacks
Game is more linear than a zelda game though but the game play is some of the best in the business in terms of fun, speed, and fluidity
Edit: Oh and the music is awesome
On the hardest setting the series has probably some of the best bosses in all of gaming
It's a very straightforward action RPG conceptually, but executed extremely well.
