Good game overall. Good: - Upgraded combat system from OT1; - Class system is very enjoyable; - Soundtrack is quite nice; - Progression level of your starter character is well balanced. Bad: - "Are you in a journey? Can i join you?" - This is how dumb the recruitment of the other characters is. - Most stories were made for children. Most characters basically beat their enemies with the power of friendship; - Even tho you don't need Nuts at all, it still feels bad reaching the late game and there is no efficient way to farm it; - A lot of the side quests are VERY hard to complete without a guide, there are zero hints about what you are supposed to do; - Your starting character is locked until you finish the main quest. This completely breaks the level balance of the other characters to their respective quests. You either choose 4 and finish all their quests, then start with a team full of level 1 chars with end game gear, or keep changing your other 3 members, leaving your main character one-shotting everything.
Octopath Traveler II is so close to being a masterpiece. The game improves on many things from the first Octopath: the combat is still fantastic, the Boost system remains as satisfying as ever, and the new Latent Powers add just enough depth to keep battles interesting. The world map is great to explore, the music is incredible (including the remixes), and the game starts strong and ends with an amazing final chapter. Individually, the characters are great. Their personal stories are interesting and memorable. But the game still struggles with the same issue as the first Octopath: it rarely feels like these eight characters are actually traveling together. During story chapters, the protagonist acts as if they are completely alone in every dialogue. Then suddenly a boss fight starts and three other party members appear out of nowhere. The disconnection between story and gameplay is still very noticeable. Travel Banters try to fix this, but they feel like a missed opportunity. They aren’t voiced, they don’t always trigger when the moment would make sense, and if you want to see them at the right time you often need to constantly change party members. Ironically, the final chapter finally lets the characters interact in a meaningful way, and it feels epic. It just happens way too late. Mechanically, the biggest issue for me was equipment management. Because you frequently rotate characters to progress their stories, you spend a lot of time re-equipping jobs, weapons, and skills. A proper loadout system would have solved this completely. Random encounters also become repetitive later in the game, and the design choice where walking instead of running lowers encounter rates feels odd. Running through the world and managing encounter frequency shouldn’t feel like a trade-off between two quality-of-life features. Another missed opportunity is the lack of world tracking. The game encourages exploration, opening chests, interacting with NPCs, and completing the bestiary, but there’s no proper checklist system for it. Despite all that, I still loved my time with the game. Octopath Traveler II is indeed not perfect — but it is SO close to being. Let’s see if Octopath Traveler III can finally achieve it.

I've finally beaten the final story boss and am ready to try and face my thoughts towards this game. It currently sits at Overwhelmingly Positive and has been out for years - so I can see how positive sentiment towards the game is. However, I didn't find this experience as black and white as I'd expected, and this is a good opportunity to figure out why. First off, this is a stunning game. The overall presentation is incredible... with its distinct 2D/3D art style, beautiful music and top-tier voice acting. This feels like a premium JRPG, taking inspiration from classics and injecting its own modern twist. Similarly, the battle system is great. I would say next to perfect for me - a good balance of risk/reward, a lot of variety that expands as you level up. The classes are distinct, but it's the weakness/break/boost systems that coalesce into something just so satisfying to suss out. In fact, I would say that the boss battles are the absolute pinnacle of this game for me. Most areas/encounters are a short run up to an excellent, cinematic boss battle that requires you to understand and embrace the game's systems. These moments were perfection and the part I looked forward to the most. But the balance isn't without its flaws. A little over halfway through the story, I was finding most of my characters so over-levelled that these challenges evaporated. I'd say that feeling only returned for the final boss (which itself I have plenty of criticism for). It's a shame that of its 60 hour runtime, 30 or so hours were trivialised without any grinding. Similarly, I found it hard to stay invested in the stories as the game went on. Some are excellent - some less so. At worst, these stories were trite and predictable... But even at their best, they stand so isolated from one another. The biggest failure in my eyes is how entirely disconnected these stories are. This is eight completely separate stories, with very little crossover... and very little chemistry between the main characters. Voice acting for the travel banter would have gone a long way to addressing this but was strangely missing. For these reasons, the party never reached the same heights as say, a Final Fantasy 9, a Persona or a Chrono Trigger. I come away from the game agreeing with its Overwhelmingly Positive rating on Steam... but relieved to be done. I would play another Octopath game, but without more focus on party chemistry I just cannot see myself being invested in the characters. It's a shame, when so many of the systems (break, boost) are near-perfect, and the game is wrapped in such beautiful packaging.
