Thinking about learning this game. Is it slower on xbox one?? What is the recommendation? Thanks in advance.
Hi Javi.
Overall the xbox version runs slower than the PC version and does not allow you to hide the UI during your runs (hiding the UI roughly saves 20s because it allows you to skip all the textbox). Also, if you decide to speedrun this game, you will need to record your runs and if you want to use LiveSplit to time your run, you will not benefit from the autosplitter that is available on PC and will need to manually start/stop the timer.
In addition to that, you will not be able to use some third party softwares that allow you to set some custom button rebindings, which can be really nice to have.Also, there are some tools developed by the community that you can use on PC that tweak the game a bit to make our life easier (extra saves slots, deadzone changes for controller runners, ...)
Another important point, Ori and the blind forest has its own randomizer that is only available on PC. If you want to give it a try, you will need to have a PC version.
If you have any question I recommend you to join the discord, you will get your answers even faster :D
