I really need to pick these back up, but good gods! I want to love them for more of their own merits, but I still have good memories of Octopath pulling me out of mobile gaming hell and the weight that was lifted off me when I was allowed to teach myself how to play a video game again....
I have been playing the first one, this past week. I cannot get over the graphics and music! I am sure I will play more after I get my Call of Duty fix over with haha.
Honestly I love them both! As for recommending them I’d say without a doubt you could start at 2 and be completely fine as it’s all new characters and a whole new story of the 8 travelers. The stories are well done & it’s more cohesive than 1, but I still love 1! They should be on all platforms now!
It is great to see you and many others appreciating these games! I especially love the music and the character's stories (alongside making fun party builds).
beautiful artstyle, amazing ost and a fun gameplay style inspired by bravely default! not to mention 2 fixes a good amount of the issues i had with 1. amazing jrpgs id highly recommend!
Yeah so sad!
Like how the sequel got drowned out by other big games at the time of release and i was so shocked it didnt get the attention it should have.
They are both fantastic, though I’m a little more partial to the second one. I believe both of them are on Game Pass console and PC too if people ever wanted to check them out and happen to be on those platforms.
The first and second game goes on sale pretty frequently also you don’t have to play these in order as the stories aren’t connected! Different characters and stories. Amazon has fair prices for Octopath Traveler 2 for PS4/PS5 for $34.99/$39.99 in the states it’s normally $59.99 so a good deal!
Oh it absolutely is imo (not saying 1 isn’t good or anything like that because I adore it too) but it’s like they took all the good from the first game and improved upon it in game 2 and it shows! If you ever check it out let me know! ❤️🥹
I used a Reddit guide. I set up all the jobs. I got all the gear. Even some of it I was missing. Pretty sure I was high 70s/early 80s. Got through phase 1 with a long fought.
Then Galdera himself comes out and in like 2 turns he's like "🤣 bye"

I've wanted to play them before but never got around to it, but now might be the time :o
Honestly, even CotC is that same level of amazing for being a mobile game

I love both but yeah 2 is my favorite of them!

Second game is excellent but I think they tuned the difficulty down too loo compared to the first
