Octopath Traveler Series Video Game • Page 21

ooh tell us how it goes! and then do the secret boss!

 

Beat it on the first try with everybody alive. I feel like it took an hour though.

Now for the secret boss I guess. I never attempted it in the first game.

 

I’ve been obsessed with this game recently. I’m working on doing all the characters’ chapter twos. The writing and visual style are top-tier.

A game with its own thread! Thanks for tagging - will post my senseless updates about my progress/thoughts/questions here.

 

I’m pretty much at a standstill in Octopath Traveler 2 because I made it to Canalbrine and never want to leave.

 

I wanna play this again but I know I should play bravely default 2 first since I’ve never played it. I still think this is the best game of the decade so far besides Elden ring

 

y'all gonna make me play this again huh

 

What I should really do is go back and play all of one

 

I just finished Casti’s chapter with Rosa and Melia. One of the saddest moments in gaming.

 

Some of the endings are really gut punching

 

Castti's story is so good

 

The music in this game is so good.

 

Started playing 2 again bc this thread got bumped. Just picked up Osvald and found my first secondary job, the inventor

 

It’s the best

 

the theme song would bring tears to my eyes if I heard it rn

 

I just found the eighth traveler, so it’s almost time to start doing some chapter 2s!

 

I've said it a million time on this site but the soundtrack to the first game was my most listened album like 3 years in a row lol

this was always my fav

 

I’m working on the Scent of Commerce missions. Saving up 100,000 leaves is going to be tough haha

 

one of my favorite things about these games is summoning the NPCs you recruit into battle. random grandmas wiping enemy mobs will never not be awesome

 

I started with therion and this got me so hooked on the game

 

The thing I like most about the game is all the characters and storylines are so different, but offer so much about the world. Agnea is a dancer that wants to spread cheer and Temenos uncovers a conspiracy with his religious order and hidden ancient civilizations.

 

How different is it compared to two? I don’t want to play a worse version of a game I love.

 

Like I said in the video game thread octopath 1 is an 8/10 game and 2 is a 10/10 game I think it’s worth checking out maybe not finishing if you just want more of the aesthetic and style

 

OT1 will always be incredibly near and dear to me, but 2 improved upon it in every way. The first one might seem formulaic in comparison - 8 characters with 4 chapters each whereas 2 changed the structure/chapter format up a bunch. 2 also added the day/night cycle and the side chapters with pairs of characters, whereas the 'interaction' between characters in the first one is limited to tavern banter.

Same fun battle system, same beautiful graphics, same incredible music, so there's that.

 

Are all side quests solvable staying within the respective town or do they sometimes require traveling around/progressing?
