Game is a lot of fun to play but it requires so much time to grind and I don’t have the time for it.

A cool JRPG with some great story telling for some of the characters that got me in the feels. Definite recommend for those who also enjoy turn based combat and some grinding.

It’s an amazing game. The newer classes are fun and unique. Leveling up requires defeating enemies and not automatical. It’s definitely an upgrade from the first game which was amazing as well

This is one of the best JRPG's of the last ten years, and the reason why is that it's a sequel to not just Octopath Traveler... but it feels like a sequel to Final Fantasy 6.

I've been on a run with RPG/JRPG games recently and with some of these incredible prices for these titles it's a no brainer to get them. Incredible deal for this game as it's one that has both quality and entertainment wrapped in one for any gamer looking for a good fantasy rpg game. Definitely one to snap up before it's too late.

Great game for an old school rpg feel. They have improved the game over the original in almost every way. If you love RPGs from the early NES days, this game is must have.

I enjoyed the old school graphics with the option to play from multiple perspectives. A little confusing at first and a challenge getting different upgraded gear, weapons, and things. Storylines of each character keeps game refreshing, good, and allows great replay value. Definitely add to collection at some point if you're a gamer like myself! Enjoy!

Loved all the improvements in this second iteration. However, one thing decreased substantially, the difficulty.
After 50 hours of gameplay I can confirm this game is way too easy.I intentionally flee 99% of random encounters to remain underleveled and haven't struggled once fighting any of the boses.

One of my favorite JRPGs. OT2 picks up where the first one leaves off with better intergrated story between characters and new fighting mechanics. Highly recommended

The special sauce in the first Octopath is in the second, and in spades. This is all I could have asked for in a sequel.
