​@@nate_thenotso_great How inorganic the game feels with the lack of interaction between characters. You can have an entire party of characters fighting together but then travel the world as if none of them exist in the same place with each other with no interaction or acknowledgement of other party members. And the way the stories pop up then all other party members disappear and cease to exist. Makes it all feel sterile. And the game is grindy.

I'm not sure if I will buy it because I had some problems with the first one: - Only the four party members who are in battle gain exp (while in DQ XI even the not active party members gain exp) - No way to prevent a battle enconter (while in Bravely I you could chose the enconters to happen rapidly or never happen at all) The art is incredible tho

1. Sadly, yes you need to grind all characters especially if you want the final true ending to it, but it is well worth it, one of the most intense final boss and music. 2. There is a way to prevent / reduce / increase the encounters, Job skill of Cyrus if I am not mistaken, and I think you can get it early too.
@craigwilde2162
@craigwilde2162 Год назад
It's less of a problem then you'd think as most of your effectiveness in battle is gear based. I focused on four characters to start with and once their stories were done swapped them out for the other four who absolutely trounced their stories with minimal grinding thanks to having the gear I acquired with the first four. There are some abilities you can equip for extra XP while running around at night gives you more battles to grind if needed and by the time I'd finished all 8 stories all party members were roughly the same level.

@@leogi7 You can choose the two teams in any way you so choose. I'd recommend at least having one main damage dealer (e.g., Throne/Hikari), one dedicated breaker, and one dedicated buffer on each team. You need to do the cross chapters to unlock the final chapter. If you have either Throne or Hikari properly skilled and equipped, you don't need to worry about grinding. This holds true until the secret boss, where you might need to do a little grinding, but not for levels, but to ensure that your party has the correct secondary jobs.

Great review Glen- I was waiting on this one. The first turned me off because the characters didn’t interact at all as a party, so in a quest where the character says they are all alone, they are evidently not. Looks like they have improved that a great deal here. And I think I have less patience for random battles like I used to, though I appreciate that there are still games like this for those who do. It does look very good, and I’m sure fans of the first will love this. I’ll wait for digital sale as I have enough enjoyment with Metroid Prime and Chained Echoes for now. I love the 2DHD style and wish Square had used that for the Final Fantasy pixel remasters. Incidentally, you can now preorder 1-6 as 1 cartridge on Play Asia , but it is very expensive. At least the scalpers can’t get hold of them, and raise the price even higher.

Wow that's a very high score, I wasn't expecting that! Personally as I age I find this kind of rpgs harder to get into, with some parts making it especially tedious (random battles for example). Chained Echoes is the first in a long time to capture my attention, and that was mostly due to how characters completed each other in battle. How's that aspect working in the Octopath franchise? Do you get those combinations of mechanics that keep battling interesting throughout?
@Booneface

I enjoyed triangle strategy but not feeling this one. Think I have had enough of the concurrently running stories concept after 13 sentinels

Sad to say I've never played the first one. Heard many great things about it, and now hearing great things about the sequel. Unfortunately for me RPGs are like a good book. But you have to be in the mood to sit and enjoy it. I play about 1 or 2 RPGs a year if that. One day I'll get around to these.

I hope the enemy encounter frequency can be changed that was the most annoying part of octo I. The maps were beautiful but couldnt enjoy them without having to fight every like 15 seconds a new enemy

Will play it on PS5 instead of Switch this time around, but really hyped.

Alright finally after 2 months I'm gonna buy this game thanks for a simple yet in depth review again SwitchUp peeps! Another one for my back log 😅😅😅 Really hope Pokemon went this route instead 3d art style is just what I fancy for Pokemon but yea it is what it is.

The only thing I really didn't like of the last one was that the stories didn't tie into each other (You just did eight seperate stories where each character was the main character... to no end). It was also weird how characters just went along with things they probably wouldn't in other character stories. I hope they changed that this time.

Niiiiice! I was waiting for one of my trusted channels to give this game a good score. Now that you've given it a GREAT score, I went ahead and pre-ordered it! 😍 What can I say? I've been burned too many times lolol

How well are all the stories tied togethor in this game? I remember hating how in the first one it felt like there was almost no reason for my party to even be togethor. No one really interacted with eachothers stories, or even had proper dialogue with one another. Is there an actual unifying story in this game, and do the characters have actual relationships this time? Or are all the stories still just unrelated and disconnected from eachother?
