OCTOPATH TRAVELER™

One of the best games released in the last 10 years. Amazing music. I actually can't think of a single game in the last 10 years with music this good except for the sequels! Sure the overarching story could have been more epic and connected the different characters, but the RPG mechanics are on point. Random encounters are too frequent for padding, but that was an even worse problem in Octopath Zero though. Difficulty in this game is about perfect. Solid 9/10 from me, it kickstarted the HD-2D genre!

Un très bon jeu, même si il faut beaucoup monter en niveaux les personnages pour certains boss spécifiquement le boss final Galdera et ne pas oublier de parler aux personnages pour certains succès qui deviennent bloqués comme oeil de lynx. À part ces inconvénients, je recommande fortement le jeu si vous aimez les rpg de combats :).

Thumbs up

Levelling is a pain in the ass, but apparently it doesn't matter that much i guess? Game gets a lot of things right 1. the world is expansive and the side quests can be fun. 2. Combat is enjoyable, even though I've never been and never will be a fan of the "what HP bar? there's no HP bar" way of presenting enemies. We all know it's there - what do the game designers gain by hiding it? That game design decision was pretty pointless if you ask me. 3. Music is nice 4. The 8 protagonists are for the most part enjoyable and easy to root for. The only person i really hated was the huntress one because of her way of talking making it a pain in the ass to read her dialogue. Maybe something to consider the next time you plan on making a game that isn't fully voiced and your only way of telling the story is through the written word. 5. The stories are serviceable and I like how they are all connected to the lore of the game and the final chapters all reveal a piece of the puzzle. Game also gets a few things wrong imo: 1. Some characters have their stories behind a level lock - ex: one of thief story quests requires you to steal from people - and that means you need to grind a bit so he can steal whatever is required - this isn't a dealbreaker, but it doesn't feel fun when you're within 5 levels of the story lvl recommendation and realize you're going to have to grind when you're ready to continue with the story. 2. The cutscenes are brutal to get through. It's like watching paint dry. I ended up skipping them all and just reading the description. If there was anything I thought i really needed to rewatch, at least i could replay the scenes to the credit of the game designers. But the pace of the cutscenes is way too slow, especially considering the fact that THERES NO AUTOPLAY for dialogue....like come on guys, that's some pretty basic stuff to forget to put in the game. And if your argument is "it's a design philosophy" then that philosophy is objectively terrible. 3. Not really a huge fan of the over the top secret boss fights where you need to do like a million fights in a row to get to the final boss and it's supposed to take 2 hours for a successful run. I think it's a scummy and disingenuous way to get people to waste more time on your game than they really need to. But that's been a common complaint of mine for pretty much every JRPG ever made in the history of JRPGs. Your fans seem to love having their time wasted for whatever reason, so I'm not expecting this to change anytime soon.

Good game with good story

Amazing game, good and emotional storytelling. Play if you like the story, since that takes up more time than gameplay.
