OCTOPATH TRAVELER II (PC, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Switch, PS5, PS4) (February 24, 2023)

[Khalil's_Black_Excellence]

beat Chapter 3 of Throne's story. went with her first since she's a thief just like I did in the first game.

Also got the Grand Terry ship, hit up Roque Island for some nicer gear.

Inventor on Throne has been clutch using catapult to clear mobs when grinding.


the music is relaxing and the visuals are top notch. will upload some screenshots later when I can put the controller down for more than 30 seconds.


def better than the first game so far, nothing major but a lot of improvements across the board.

Yeah, I got the Terry Ship a while ago as well. I remember that 100k purchase requirement was seemingly daunting at first. Now I walking around with like 200k at all times, lol.

Furtherest character I got is chapter 3 finished for Osvald, despite he being one of the last characters I got due to

Spoiler: character progression

his 1st two chapters connecting back to back continuously, which I didn't know would happen and the only person who's chapters did so, so far.

I put Inventor or Partitio since it seemed like it suited him best. I also go with the catapult...Go, Go, Go to clear out mobs. It works super good with him due to his passives keeps him with 4 bars of BP right from the start of every battle. Although now, the enemies I be facing don't get 1-shotted by that anymore, even when shield broken.

I have a merchant thrown on Temenos so he can give BP to Throne.

when its time for me to level him more and finish his story tho I think I might do what you saying, making Partitio duel inventor/merchant

its too bad u cant get multiple licenses like other jobs but I guess that'd be too OP to have 4 characters spamming catapult.

kinda wanna make this screenshot I took a wallpaper. Game looks good.

prolly taken at least 20 screenshots since started playing

This game is a masterclass on how nice pixel art can be for gaming

Uh...but you can get multiple licenses my guy. Did you not read the guild guides, lol? I had three warriors with Hikari, Chassti and Orchette spamming Aggressive Slash.

Inventor is a no go apparently since its a secret job instead of a primary like Warrior, i looked it up. Primary jobs the tasks lead to extra licenses, secret jobs like inventor, tasks only lead to new abilities for that job.

Ah. I wasn't initially aware that there were secret jobs. I was wondering why none of the other characters were of the inventor class.

Ya, theres a small handful of secret jobs, i just got my second secret job of Armsmaster in Gulville(west region desert towards the north)

 

[Fctftl]

so Forgotten aka Forespoken gets a sticky but this game gets purgatory?

 

[Gizmo_Duck]

idk if i should cop this or wait for RE4R.

Cop it fool. You got more than enough time on your hands.

Idk if i will, especially since tchia comes out next week also

Maybe I’ll just wait on resident evil

Yeah and it actually does it how it's supposed to be done with high level art skill and still taking advantage of modern age gfx technically rather than just doing it to be doing it like a lot of other retro titles do.

 

[Gizmo_Duck]

Ey, why no one tell me this game was so fire?

 

[Khalil's_Black_Excellence]

Damn, reallly good reviews…too many games

I am completely enthralled by this game now. Already got 40+ hours in and just got all 8 characters, ending with Agenea, Osvald & Temenos. I still have Temenos & Agnea's first chapters to go through and just finished Osvald's chapters 1 & 2 this morning and finished Partitio's and my main's Hikari 2nd chapters days ago. The stories are incredibly well done. Some dope ass presentations with each one as well. Really liking Hikari, Partitio's and Osvald's the most so far.

Got almost all of the 2nd jobs opened up, but need about 1 or 2 more. Game is definitely certified already.

Cop it fool. You got more than enough time on your hands.

Cuz you don't listen.
