What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
You play the game as seven different characters, from the stone age to the distant future, in any order.
Graphically the game looks good and the soundtrack is great.
In my mind for a game to be worthy of the value it needs to meet a certain quality between its art (visual and audio), story, and gameplay compared to its price.
Sure, an Octopath is a different animal, but the way the old levels were slanted to produce gorgeous visuals was always great.
Runs well on Steam Deck for those that are curious.
