    Innovation is not the key feature in Octopath Traveler II, but it is still a great JRPG for fans of the genre. [Recommended]

    Anyone who’s spent any time in fandom circles knows how a little goes a long way when it comes to filling in the gaps in character relationships. A hand on a shoulder, a passing compliment, a little joke — anything can be fuel for the imagination. There was plenty of time in Octopath Traveler 2, during exploration and combat, when my mind was free to wander and would have done most of the work — if there was any foundation for me to build from. But I can’t help feeling that imaginative fuel wasn’t put into the script to begin with. Without it, Octopath Traveler 2 is beautifully realized, but there’s a hole at its center.

    As a huge fan of the original, it surpassed every expectation EXCEPT one. It has gorgeous graphics, the gameplay is phenomenal, the soundtrackAs a huge fan of the original, it surpassed every expectation EXCEPT one. It has gorgeous graphics, the gameplay is phenomenal, the soundtrack is unbelievable, the character stories are next level. My one letdown is that the 8 classes are the same as the first game. They do switch up and balance a few moves, but essentially it doesn't encourage you to switch up your strategies from the first game if you have your 'go to' favorites. Just a heads up who are looking for more innovation with the classes. Regardless, even if you're a newcomer, a veteran of the original like me, I absolutely and thoroughly recommend this game through and through.… Full Review »
