Has anyone else noticed how fathers are a recurring theme in the story? Every character has a dead mother (6/8 have a father figure or is a father), And every story involves a father in some way shape or form. And the fact I realized this on Father’s Day is also a funny coincidence.

My game if the year. I just can’t express my love of this game enough. The final boss music, the stories for all of the characters, and especially how all of the stories intertwined at the end was insane! Absolutely adored this game, and I doubt I’ll find another game soon that will surpass it until I find another killer JRPG to play. I adored the characters, and the music, *oh my god the music!* I still listen to Osvald’s theme constantly (there is a rock/guitar remix on Spotify/Apple Music that is absolutely amazing), and his story was absolutely my favorite. Such good character development, and I wanted to kill Harvey after chapter 4. This game is a fucking masterpiece. Also the VA’s are *phenomenal*. I’m constantly repeating the quotes from Temenos and Osvald like “Aelfric banish the shadow from this world!” Or “THIS IS THE ANSWER!” I love this game to death. Also I agree that partitio’s story is awesome. His music is amazing, I love his character, and the fact that he overpowers capitalism with more, better, capitalism, is great.

By far for me castti's story has the most emotion. It started with her losing her memory don't know who she was and gradually the mysteries unclogged one by one. In the end eventhough she lost everything, her friends, her whole town, she still do her duty to save people lives. The one got me tearing up in the end is the line where Ori asked her that who to thanked for saving the town she simply replied "We, Eir Apothecary" and then the song start playing and then it cut to the picture of her sleeping while the soul of her friends watching her.

The issue with wanting more interactions between the characters I feel would be the amount of (possible) dialogue. It would be, what, 8 times more massive than it already is because you'll need specific lines for specific character for specific times during the game. This is assuming you go a linear route. What if you go get Ozvald then skip Temenos and Throne and go straight for Ochette?(I haven't done it but I am assuming you can skip characters and go to different towns to get characters in whatever order you want).

I disagree with your take on Throne's story. I really liked how crazy out there it was. I only disliked that it wasn't explained why the villain was able to be immortal. But i really liked it for being rather surreal and fucked up - because fucked up people like the villains in her story really do exist in the real world. JRPGs have always been reluctant to be realistic and dark, which makes her story such a pleasant surprise. But my fav character has to be Ochette. I'm glad i took her as my main, with her OP animal skills. I like her positivity without the naivety. Same with Partitio. You should really have played the game with Japanese dub, because Partito's japanese VA is just AMAZING. I recognize Zoro's voice actor anywhere! Osvald's story is a little disappointing instead, i dislike his sudden dropping of taking vengence. The fact that the villain brainwashed his kid should make him even more angry, but it just made him more mellow? Just plain weird.

Ochette is so dang lovable, both her English and Japanese voice actors did an amazing job with her. While I showed English in all the scenes in video, I did bounce between both voices the entire game.

To me it was pretty clear that the reason Osvald wanted revenge was because he thought he had nothing left to live for. All he could do was fight to avenge his family. But seeing Elena alive made him realize that he can still live for Elena, and do everything in his power to protect her. Osvald doesn’t just “mellow out”, he takes the energy he was putting toward his revenge and refocuses it on protecting Elena. That’s how he unlocks the One True Magic, it’s powered by his love for Elena rather than his empty desire for revenge. That’s why Osvald’s turn away from revenge makes sense to me, and it’s why it doesn’t ruin the story imo.

While I love someone making content about OCTOPATH Traveler, I find myself disagreeing on a lot, so it's time to do some bitchin'. Disclaimer: I'm still in the middle of my 2nd playthrough of the game, and I believe that is required to formulate a nuanced opinion of the stories, so I might come back on these later. First of all, or I guess 8th, I understand putting Throné last, I don't agree, but I think it is justifyable. Agnea being 7th is pretty right imo, no objections, her link to the main story is practically non-existent. Temenos at 6th place is where I'm starting to disagree a lot. Of course Crick is amazing, but I also think the inherent story here is great. Bringing Vados back after chapter 1 was really cool, Kaldena is a very interesting villain, Temenos himself is such a refreshing character, and his theme works really well when you view it as displaying Temenos' mischievousness instead of the detective story. The only weak link is Cubaryi imo, she isn't fleshed out at all. Also the idea of these grand institutions having some deep secrets is a subject touching our reality. Castti at 5, really? Malaya is also a really good side character and the mystery of this one is revealed in a very stylistic way. Having an amnesiac plot done well is also very nice. Trousseau's motivations are kind of unexplained in the story, but he is a good villain and the voice actor is really cool. Her theme also is unique in a special way, I can't explain this, but the vibe cannot be reproduced by covers of the theme. Also Edmund is a pretty good side character. And Castti's own character is absolutely fantastic. She also has the single best non-bossfight chapter in the game imo. Hikari at 4 is fine, no comment. Ochette at 3, now here I have some things to say, because I have her at 8th. First of all: catgirls in OCTOPATH, what a stupid idea. Second, the racism plotline completely sours the first and last chapters of this story. The first chapter is also an absolute slog on replay, even more than the other first chapters. Petrichor NEVER appears in the story, except for in a flashback in the combined story which is an absolute waste. The partner mechanic was cool, though. Also Pom and Heig are not all that good in terms of side characters, Alpione is alright. Also I don't think Ochette's personality is all that great, her love of meat comes over as downright hedonistic at times, although I'll admit the final scene with the Darkling was nice. Overall, I felt like every other story had a more interesting plot or protagonist. Osvald at 2, no objections. Partitio at 1, I know everyone loves Partitio, and I do as well, but I disagree. His first chapter has some really good moments but damn if it isn't tedious! Chapter 2 is slightly forgettable, Garnet feels like a filler bossfight. Chapter 3 is amazing the entire way round though. And then chapter 4 also isn't that fantastic. Its predictable, but the fight is cool. Partitio's theme is good, but it isn't as good as the character themes that actually have more emotional weight. Also, I don't like certain performances of Partitio's voice actor, he grew on me as well, but some lines that should be brimming with excitement sound bland. Ori is great, as well as the newspaper stuff though. The problem is his story is completely feel-good, which isn't inherently bad, but it gets overshadowed by stories with more emotional depth. Also, Partitio defeating capitalism by being good-natured, I don't know, it somewhat reduces complicated issues imo, although an argument is to be made that Hikari's and Temenos' stories also do so at least a little bit, Ochette's story is a bad offender in this regard as well. Some small things about the video, at some points this video felt slightly rushed. Calling Agnea's home town Leaflet, or calling the Moonshade Order the 'Order of the Moon', that feels slightly lazy although they probably were honest mistakes, and this might be nitpicking. Still, opinions will be opinions, and my rankings aren't more right than yours. Also, making content about OCTOPATH is something we needed more anyway, so still, thank you!

Its just as you said, this game is an improvement from the first game in everyday possible, but unfortunately "improvement" is the key word to its biggest shortcoming. Bevause that's all it really boil down to: an improvement. Not perfection, not the best, not godlike, just an improvement. Deep down despite how much we love the game as it turned out , there we're SO many things it could have improved on, story-wise most of all. So should there be a 3, I hope they give us a bit more interaction with the next 8 travelers. Not with just travel or banter or joint quests. We need more screentime with all 8 coming together, from enjoying each other's company to facing down a world ending threat. Definetly more than a half hour for sure. Other than all that, this game holds a special place in my heart.
