OCTOPATH TRAVELER II

好玩，特效很帅的，就是剧情有点难绷

I have played more than 20h in Octopath Traveller 2. A finished the 1 last year, and has enojes already. In this version there are some new mechanics and Iiked how the histories develop between the characters. The music is also very good.

I don't usually play this type of game but I played demo of Sea of Stars and this one and thought it was fun. The main 8 characters are all quite different and balancing your party and mixing matching to get synergies is fun. The story feels like although its filled with tragedy for the most part. Would recommend to anyone who likes this type of game or someone just trying something different for a change of pace. The equipment management is not as annoying as many other CRPG's and the character abilities are varied enough that you need to think about you use them. Each fight can feel a bit like a puzzle and some of the lower level fights can be a bit repetitive. So far I give it 8/10.

第一款玩通的JRPG，但是玩法极其无聊，建议去玩国产武侠RPG。

Amazing game. It's been a long time for me since I got to play an JRPG I enjoyed this much. I find this one a much better than the first. It iron outs a lot of issues I had with the first, mainly the difficulty curve. The first required a lot of grinding in order to just complete the story, while for this, just going thru each chapter is enought to level up your characters for the next one. Mecanically, the inclusion of the latent power gives a lot of variation and strategies to the combat, making the battles a lot more interesting and enjoyable. I just wish that [spoiler] the simultaneus 8 character mecanic for the final battle was used in more than just one fight. [/spoiler] The OST and looks of the game are as stunning and beautiful as the first game, and the characters are even more charming. My biggest complaint is the same I had with the first game: character stories still feel way too disconected, your party members won't intervene during a character story. Feels like your party is not there at all. The closest thing you get is the banter dialogues and those are not even dubbed, very disappointing. Anyways, I still think this is a flawed but beautiful master piece, in the same vein of Bravely Default and The Last Remnant.

一封献给jrpg的情书。 虽然很多都说八方的剧情有点平淡，但我玩下来有泪点有燃点有反转，配合boss战响起的的bgm，这种顶级音画表现好几次让我落泪。 八个故事也风格迥异，有逃离杀人组织、侦探寻凶、寻找仇敌这些较为黑暗的故事，也有像舞娘和商人这种宛如童话的传播爱与希望的故事，也有王子复仇、拯救家园的王道故事，并且玩到最后，会发现有一条串联全部故事的暗线。藏在各种npc的故事里，这就要用到角色的地图技能，能看到很多形形色色的故事，比如我偷了一个小女孩身上的手工手套，打听才发现这是她妈妈留给她的遗物，用商人去买也能看到是非转让物，但我已经覆盖存档了也不能还回去让我良心愧疚好久，这些细节让这个世界更加的生动。 八位旅人的故事除了队内对话还多了双人剧情，能让我们感受到角色间的羁绊，而且还算是主线，打完最终boss后队友一个个的告别离开，让我止不住的寂寥，但是ed后旅人集结一起去给舞娘捧场让我又惊又喜，最后舞娘的配音配上打出来的标题“OCTOPATH TRAVEKER--歧路旅人” 让我只能说，不虚此行。
