OCTOPATH TRAVELER 0

Very disappointed by this game. There is a lot to appreciate in the first two games and I had a great time with them, it didn't feel like this entry measured up. The Issues: The Villains- The game has a much greater focus on the villains but the villain characters themselves are very weak characters. They are all insane psychopaths with no redeeming qualities or relatability. I have never found this kind of character interesting and having it be repeated makes it even more unlikeable. To me these characters were the biggest drag on the game, hard to keep playing with them being such an undeserved focus. The Combat- The moves are a bizarre mishmash. Lots of "Two strikes on random characters with chance of weakness effect,." Less AOE and clear attacks, it overcomplicates the battles and makes them less fun in my eyes. Characters: The core characters are fine and the city building they do together was actually my favorite part. The other members of the group are given no focus and with so many you don't know them well. The assisting NPC's are hard to get attached to given the sense that they could just be fodder to show more of how insane/terrible the villains are. Wish I could give it a better review but would recommend sticking with the first two games.

Played both OT1 and OT2 and this is a great addition to the line up. Runs at a smooth 60 with no problems on steam deck too 10/10 Story 10/10 Combat 11/10 Soundtrack 10/10 Banger Game Well worth the price. GOTY so far for me!

Hell yeah! This game (in my opinion) is better than the first and second game. I love everything about this. Character building, story, music and the feedback and Qol changes. I definitely no life this game, and it was worth it.

剧情总体上是好的，但就是有几个雷点难以接受，bgm不如2，然而通起马桶来还是这么上头，本质还是为了战斗爽和听牢加bgm来玩的，没玩过手游，前后卫的设计也还是蛮不错，玩到最后还是跟这个游戏和解了

因為玩過手遊所以知道劇情 但我不知道的是 這遊戲直接完全照抄 你前面還設定主角是被權力路線毀滅村子的 他是仇人诶 結果權力線打完 碰面了只有一句 你是那村子倖存者!? 沒了 其他完全都跟手遊的無口點頭工具人一樣 是三小 然後打完路線後 跑去搜一下 居然沒有林悠加入 手遊超強輔助角色 在劇情中也是有戲份的 你居然沒塞進入隊條件 反而還塞一堆雜魚角色湊數是三小 單機版=不用抽卡的手遊版 我本以為是這樣想 沒有 是連角色都閹割的敷衍版！

As a long-time fan of the Octopath Traveler series, I must issue a stern warning: this title is nothing short of "digital trash" that tarnishes the franchise's reputation. I have to say, the sheer lack of quality in this entry has completely drained my enthusiasm, leaving me with no interest or expectations for this gameplay style or the series moving forward. The gameplay and story are equally disappointing. By mid-game, the combat devolves into mindless stat inflation and tedious grinding, stripping away any sense of strategic satisfaction. The pacing of the animations is particularly infuriating: even when using the "skip" function, the game forces tedious fade-in/fade-out transitions for every minor mechanism, rendering the feature practically useless. Furthermore, with limited NPC interactions and a soundtrack that lacks a sense of cohesion—feeling more like a random collection of tracks from the first two games—the whole project feels like a low-effort port. [h2] SPOILER WARNING: The following section contains major plot and ending spoilers. [/h2] While the narrative in the first half—culminating in the "Master of All" arc—was decent, the quality plummeted immediately after. The three dungeons preceding the finale were agonizingly long and repetitive, feeling like a deliberate attempt to disrespect the player's time. The most infuriating part was the ending; the final boss appeared out of thin air with zero buildup, leading to a climax that was both nonsensical and poorly executed. I forced myself to finish the game only because I value narrative closure, but I was rewarded with nothing but pure frustration. If you value your time and sanity, stay far away from this game and seek a refund immediately, won't recommend to anyone.

So far 73 hours in.... For any FF fan that is a fan before the FF7 and beyond titles... This title definitely scratches the itch for those FF's that we always wanted during that time. We do not care about the super crazy FMV's and junk. We just want expanded gameplay and systems.
