I got this game because /v/ told me it’s one of the greatest JRPGs of our generation. I started with the hunter since I’ve heard she was broken.What am I in for bros? Also general Octopath bread
its ok
>what am I in forDisappointment
Should I get both games or just OT2?
>>724349920i need to rape that thing
>literal human with a dog nose I am vomit
sex with her in my party>>724350510is the sequel that bad?
>>724349920i started with the hunter too but only because she's the most attractive one
>>724351016The sequel is better than the 1st game but I am of the opinion that they didn't do enough to fix the shortcomings of the 1st game.>party members remaining mute or just invisible during other characters stories leading to some immersion breaking events>linear and boring dungeon designs>what looks like a large world is actually pretty small>overworld sprites not changing to reflect chosen class>some path actions are too save scummyStill it was a good time all in all.
>>724350578Playing 1 after 2 is hard. So what you want to play?An okay game and then a good gameO or just a good game?The biggest problem with 1 is, every chapter is samey. Go to a town, story scenes, using your characters special skill, dungeon and the boss. 32 times. 2 fixed this pretty good.
>>724351253If they ever make 3, they just have to do a mandatory prologue for every character and why they end up in the group. After that you can play the chapters like you want. But if you have a guarantee that everyone is in the group, you can give them supporting dialogue.
>>724349920any good butthole porn of her?
>>724352002I fucking wish, if you find any, post it.
>>724351423>>724351253What are the improvements 2 made over 1? 1 was decent and it's nice to see such high quality RPGs being made, but hasn't made me want to go back and play it again.
>>724350894that pic furfag'd her up. she's literally monster girl tier
>>724351016Turns out putting a story on hold so you can basically restart the game at chapter 1 of someone else with the same low level of difficulty/complexity is just not very fun, especially when those stories are also mediocre af.
Bros…
>>724351016>is the sequel that bad?The sequel is a huge improvement on the first game.
Fragmenting the game into a disjointed 8x~4 chapter mess just kinda fucking sucks.
>>724353983>putting the story on hold(...)is just not very fun>those stories are also mediocre afPick a lane
>>724353172No she has a full on snout, anon.
ochette does not have a snout
>>724355450I literally have her figure from the collector edition. She has one, it’s the art style that makes her face flat when she’s not facing the side.
>>724355493a couple of little pewter promotional figures made to help sell a special edition aren't canon model references we've told you before
>>724354541The pacing and quality of a story are two separate things tho
>>724351690Yes, just eliminate any opportunity for the player to use their imagination and roleplay in the roleplaying videogame. We need the NPC audience to grow this franchise.
>>724351016The sequel's vastly better in every way. The posts above telling you it's bad likely didn't play it, and just assume so based on their Octopath 1 experience.
>>724355596Except they literally implied on the notes they wanted her to be modeled with a snout instead of a flat human face unlike the rest of the travelers.It’s even visible in the game’s cover. She’s the only one with a snout when drawn from the side like in the CotC 4th anniversary art, her character sheet and a promotional artwork. Her face is drawn flat from the front but she 100% has a snout, she’s just drawn in anime style where they rarely define the face outside of the eyes.
>>724356268i remember this conversation. i also remember literally posting her ingame portrait next to the others and her face is just as human
octopath sucks, theres no real overarching narrative, the chapter system sucks dick. id rather the devs make a traditional jprg story with this style of game.
>>724356479he's a furry he's never going to let it go he NEEDS her to be furry too
>>724356479Yes anon because the artstyle makes her face look more human than it is. The fact that she has a unique side profile and is drawn differently from the humans show that she has a different type of face. Again her figure is an official depiction of her and she has a snout there instead of a flat face like the other travelers. Next you’ll tell me the Caits have human faces because they’re drawn with flat faces from the front.
>>724356675I don’t need her to be anything kek Literally her 3D depiction shows this, that anon doesn’t understand that her face looking flat is an2D stylization. In reality her design 100% has a snout and this was intended by the people who designed her.
>>724356268>It’s even visible in the game’s cover.that's her cheek, you fucking moron.
>>724356682we literally just discussed how she doesn't, in game.you're seeing Schrodinger's snout.
>>724351016>is the sequel that bad?it's better than 1 but it's still rather uninteresting and formulaic
Scholar Primrose. That is all
>>724357328No, it’s 2D stylization. Just like anime girls are drawn with snouts from the side but have flat ass faced when their designs are translated into 3D. Ochette is the opposite where her face is drawn flat from the front but she has a snout while anime girls are drawn with snouts from the side but have flat faces. OP is Ochette with a defined snout instead of a stylized flat profile.
>>724357060that is just anime moe face brothis shit delusional
>>724357060i remember this conversation too.>no cleft>no pouches for the nictating membranesthat is a human face with a cat nose plopped on it.see the difference? she doesn't even have whiskers.
>>7243505782 is better but if you want to get into the franchise you should start at 1. Even though 2 and 1 are barely connected, going back to 1 after 2 is going to feel bad.
>>724357629Nah you are blind.This is an anime moe face>>724357624That is a snout like a cat>>724357060
>>724356021Shut up retard.
>>724357678thats crazy, all this time these girls all had muzzles this entire time
>>724357669No it isn’t. That is a muzzle, her face is not flat like your example to your right. Her face is more like Lamat except Lamat has a philtrum.
>>724357678literally no difference in the cheekbones or nose placement on a human anime figurine.you're letting the black nose fool you.
>>724349920Ochette is busted early/mid game but falls off in damage in late/post game. She's still a great choice for your main character since her latent ability will be a good source of damage. Also the game is not very hard, outside of the secret boss, and maybe the true final boss.
>>724357060she's literally a fucking mithra/miqo'te and that is classified by most as kemonomimi tiershe is a far cry from this furfaggotry
Ochette is just a Tarutaru or Lalafell with more normal proportions. OPs image is definitely some western furfag and barely resembles her
>>724357797Now post their official figures and you’ll notice that their faces are flat.>>724357624Again Miku is drawn with that same profile in her 2D art work but all her figures show she has a flat face. It’s almost like 2D stylizations don’t always translate to how a design looks lol
>>724357894even the figures have muzzles, weird
>>724357826Nope. You can’t even see her black nose in her figure. The modelers also made her mouth smaller when it was meant to go around her muzzle so she’s even more animal-like than the figure implies. Neither of your examples have protruding snouts.
>>724351690If they made the last third of the game longer, and shortened the first third of the game to compensate, I would have enjoyed the story a lot more. Add more "connected stories" to flesh out the character dynamics as well, instead of just the 1 for each pair. Hell, include some 3 character or 4 character connected stories.
>tfw still no demo on 0>mfw finding out there's octoplets on cotc and just made a team with themThe octoplets are adorable and I'm huge sad that they won't be on 0. They even have their own skills with their own names in them
ok i'm done talking to this retard. some people just need to be put down
>>724349920just play saga
>>724358043neither does yours.that is a human skull with human facial features.>point out the ingame art does not imply muzzle>"I-IT'S JUST THE ARTSTYLE MISREPRESENTING HER">point out the figure has human bone structure>"I-IT'S JUST THE MODDLERS MISREPRESENTING HER"lmaohave fun in Delusionland, i guess. peace
>>724358043i do think you are a genuinely furry schizo, bro
Hot take, the whole 8 separate stories thing was always a dumb fucking gimmick and is by far the worst part of the games. It has no reason to exist. You should just have a single story.
>>724358043 heres Geralt in his collectors edition. I guess this overrules his in game appearance and is what he TRVEly looks like
>>724357797those are shark girls
>All this shitposting about Ochette and nobody has posted the in game art of herShe very clearly doesn't have a protruding snout, but she does have a weird little black dog/cat nose.
>>724358242>I'm too old for this shit
>>724358181>human facial features>Literally has a snoutShow me an anime girl figure in 3/4 view that has a face like hers and I’ll admit you’re right. But you won’t because anime girls don’t have muzzle despite the artstyle drawing them like that. Ochette isn’t a Mithra style character, she is a hybrid with a hybrid face.>>7243582962D stylization. Now post her side profile compared to the rest of the travelers. As I said you must think the Caits have human noses since they’re drawn from the front in a similar style kek
>>724358423literally a human face w/ cat nose.
>>724358837Post her side profile compared to the humans. Her front and 3/4 view are drawn flat but as her figure shows she has a muzzle.Miku and other anime girls are drawn with snouts from the side but their faces are 100% when their designs are translated into 3D. Ochette’s design was translated with a full on snout and that was literally what her designers wanted. They mention in one of the notes that they didn’t want her figure to look like a “human with cat ears”.
>>724358296>>724358837yeah almost like there's a pattern with a certain JRPG studio and making brown skin white hair cat nose charactersAnd those characters aren't furries with snouts
>Ochetter turbo autist once once again autistically samefagging againThis mental retardation has to end
>>724358989Take a step back and ask yourself>Why do I care so much if this anime girl has a snout?
>>724359128Nope totally different profile. That’s a human with a flat face and a human nose.>>724358043Totally different designs.
>>724359153It'll only end when he plays in traffic one day. Like many autistics
>>724358125>they won't be on 0They won't be?
>>724359268Because I like her design? I don’t know why that anon is so adamant in her being a midget version of FFXI Mithra when there’s enough official info on her design. If you want to think of her has a Mithra that’s fine but that’s not what she is. >>724357871Hell this anon is wrong. OP picture is accurate given how her design is. The modelers gave her a much smaller mouth but with a proper mouth her design is pretty much like the OP. Again she has a hybrid face.
she doesnt have a snout. its just a painted on nose because she was raised by cats
i dont even care if she has a snout, i just dont understand why that anon is being such a turbo fag about it
>>724360878>i just dont understand why that anon is being such a turbo fag about itbecause he's attracted to ochette but doesnt want to be called a furry due to the negative connotations associated with the term
>>724349920would
>>724360878Because 4chan is anti-furry to an extreme. Like I don’t get why it’s bad to admit it when you literally have a figure and artwork that shows on top of statements like this in the artbook. This was one of the notes they left on the side profile of the figure where it’s pretty clear she doesn’t have a flat human face, they didn’t want her to look like a kemonomimi or have a human nose. Am I being too autistic, sure, but I’m not the one denying official merchandise, illustrations and statements. You must suffer face blindnesss if you think that’s a human face and nose.
>>724360878lack of medication.he's seeing snouts everywhere.
>>724362420> Like I don’t get why it’s bad to admit itbecause the figure and official art clearly shows she does not. you are literally the only one dying on this hill.
>>724360878he wants the last word of being 'right' when everyone has proven hes being a fucking retard. hes just trying to be the last autist standing>>724361716if anything he's trying his hardest TO BE A FURRY by saying she has a snout, which is insane to me but autist are going to autist
>>724355339And human skin
>>724349920Played 1 on release and loved it but I knew they could build up on the idea and make a better sequel, bought 2 last year and just started today with Ochette, liking it so far but having to rewatch every opening is a bit boring and I don't wanna miss out on their story details either...
>Octopath Traveler thread>90% of it is shitposting about whether or not Ochette has a snoutThis could have been a good thread
>>724362750No. This is what a human face with a shit smeared nose looks like>>724359128This is a moe anime face>>724358423Her face is not 100% cat but the muzzle shape is there. Add to the fact that the modelers gave her a small mouth and image if her mouth stretched all the way around the muzzle like intended and it’s more cat-like than either of those two examples>>724360065Again you have face blindness if you think she has something like FFXI Mithra since you can actually compare both designs in 3D.
>>724364354You can always just read the chapter summaries of the stories you don't care about (Agnea).
>>724349920I love ochette, but I wish she had a less furry face in this pic. Been oddly hard getting porn of her even though ive tried.
>>724349920Its really great. Couldn't put it down once I started. I enjoyed the first game well enough but it had a lot of flaws. Second game is one of the few sequels I can think of that seems to have genuinely looked at its predecessor and tried to fix the flaws. The gameplay is a solid upgrade from the first game and most of the character stories are really enjoyable. Music is really good too, and I love how the finale brings all the stories together. Really satisfying overall experience. The cast being largely great helps too.
>>724364728>"Every piece of official and in-game art was done WRONG because it doesn't match my headcanon!"i'd ask if you understand how schizophrenic you sound, but the crazy never realize they're crazy
>>724349920I love this furry bitch ochette best girl
>>724365823based
>>724364937OT2 was a 9.5/10 for me because it ended so strongly, but I really wish each character's individual stories ended with some input from the other characters. Osvald fighting a guy doing some really sketchy evil shit without Temenos the fucking church inquisitor saying something even though he's on the same team fighting the evil asshole with him was weird.
>>724349920half naked animal woman
Reminder to start with Osvald (or recruit him first) since he has a passive that reveals enemy weakpoints for you. Hugely important to relieve some of the tedium of the early game.
>>724356121I beat O1 and dropped O2 about 20 hours in because I was falling asleep playing it
>>724366545Maybe you just got sick of so much of the same kind of game, because there's nothing OT1 does that OT2 doesn't do better.
>>724349920FUCKING WOULD!
I just killed Vide yesterday and I got to say this game is way too easy. OT1 forced you to spend your resources more than OT2.
>>724368917Nice
>partitio story opens up how hes gonna save the world with capitalism>expect some libertarian bullshit>first mission is beating up landlordsuhhhh hello based department?
>>724365712Dumb ass nigga. That’s literally what they wrote in the artbook and the sketch for her figure. Notice that they wrote they don’t want her to look like a cat girl aka human with cat ears and underlined it to put emphasis on that bitch ass nigga. Also the text says ningen which could be more accurately translated to “person” rather than “human” so they’re describing her as a beast like person instead of a typical cat ear girl character. And since they’re not referring to the ears and that fact that she has a different profile than Castti it’s literally her own designers saying they 100% want her with a snoot instead of a flat face. You my nigga have zero proof for your claims. Going solely by 2D artstyle her face looks more like a Labubu than some crappy Mithra or Lalafell or Tarutaru or whatever. You have zero proof she’s meant to have a human face on the other hand her snoot is well defined from the side and in her own figure. I think the other anon is right that you’re insecure about things. It’s okay, no one is going to judge you for it.You’re like those niggas who actually think anime girls have feline faces because they saw a stylized profile and they thought they have actual muzzles. But as anime figurines show their faces are flat. Ochette face has a snoot that takes up half her face with a round squirrel like nose, not some flat face and human shit-smeared nose nigga.
>>724370751Partitio's story is more free enterprise vs corporatism rather than the usual captitalism vs communism spiel.
>>724371601anon, why would anyone bother to continue past this point? you've literally been shown official examples that prove you wrong but you just reply>the artist/modeler did it wronghere, pay attention to the behavior of your terminally schizo braincells on this one.here's official art by Naoki Ikushima himself.>THE PRONOUNCED CURVE OF HER CHEEK IMPLIES A SNOUTthat's fucking bonkers, anon. it makes zero anatomical sense. a chubby cheek is not a snout. but, y'know what, let's set that aside for now.here are multiple other examples of human characters with human faces and the same pronounced curve of their cheek. that is not indictive of a snout. it is indictive of baby fat. that is how Ikushima draws younger characters.reply with your usual >UM HER HEAD IS NOT TILTED AT AN EXACT 45 DEGREE ANGLE SO IT DOESN'T COUNTor>THE ARTIST DREW IT WRONGall you like. i won't be replying again. enjoy that lonely grave up on Snout Hill.
>>724358208>it has no reason to existYeah it does, the reason is that I, the protagonist of the universe, like it
>>724370751Partitio is easily the most based character in 2The mix of blind confidence, good heartedness and charisma make him feel like a real protagonist
>>724366060>but I really wish each character's individual stories ended with some input from the other charactersSome of the roadside banter does occur between dialogue specifically referencing past events, and personally my team of Ovsvald, Partitio, Agnea and Throne is quipping all the time, but I can see how depending on your party composition these moments might become more rareI think at minimum they could add dialogue when you use an alternate crosspath action to the one the story expects of you, like for example if you allure with agnea instead of knocking out with throne or purchase with partitio instead of mugging with osvald, I think that'd do a decent job of making the characters feel "in the moment"
>>724372932Nigga you realize what stylization means, right? >>724357797See that? That’s 2D stylization, just because an anime girls has that profile in 2D doesn’t mean that they have actual deformed heads. Look up any official figure of them and their faces are 100% flat. Any anime girl figure, go see /a/ buyfag, will be like that. Hence why you will never find an anime girl figure with Ochette figure face shape because she has an actual snout while anime girls have stylized 2D profiles. Octopath artstyle makes her face look more human than it is in her front facing angle and 3/4 but >>724358989 even current official art still only draws her with a snout profile. Ikushima even drew it on her character sheet while Agnea, Throné and Castti had normal flat faced profiles. And cheeks don’t extend like that like in the cover, the children in Temenos path art have normal cheeks whole Ochet has an actual muzzle in the cover art. I’m just going to leave it at that lil bro. Anyone not suffering face blindness can easily tell your points are wrong and people who understand what stylization means will also. A realistic Ochette would more or less look like the OP, that has nothing to do with her being furfag’d up, her design is as furry as the OP the artstyle tends to downplay her animal aspects since facial details are rarely defined in anime style art. All the faces you posted are highly stylized with the bottom two lacking a fucking nose. Next you’re going to tell me Temenos looks like Voldermont because he’s noseless in some art lmao
>>724349920Ochette Love
>>724372719Partitio's story is "kill patent owners"
Howdy pardnerI've been peepin your posts on that there "imageboard" regardin my dear pal Ochette and I gotta say...My company could really use gusto like thatHow about it pal? Wanna work for me? We're gonna kill poverty
>>724375336Dont forget successfully "I can fix"d her.
We dodged multiple bullets.
>>724368917That's why they updated the game like a year after release with the EXTRA BATTLES on the title screen. True Vide the Wicked is far harder than both Galderas.
>>724377689And yet SOME fanartists keep drawing dreadlock version.
>>724376354you mean "legally purchase patent through binding agreement and then hire patent owner to work for you"
>>724378597>only having 106939 on you at that point of the game
>>724378692A true entrepreneur doesn't sit on his liquidity
>>724358160this
Tell me about Partitio. Why does he wear the hat?
>>724359809Nah, because they are using brand new characters for 0 with the exception of key story characters and the cast of OT1
>>724364383We gotta wait for a demo or full release of 0 to even have a decent thread. But as long as that retard is alive, he will use all his unemployed time to sperg out over the most retarded stupid shit imaginable. Shit, most of the time is not even him and some other sperg pretending to be him for the el oh el so funny ragebait bullshit
>>724384054balding
>>724349920It's not that great, nor is the first one. Also, the only way to be even vaguely challenged by the game is to never fight a random battle, ever. Run away from every single one for the whole game. You can capture enemies with Ochette and then run away though.And even then the game is still easy. It's balanced for complete and utter retards to beat it.
>>724357414She's sexy af. Dunno how people like the stupid furry bitch, she's gross.

>>724399053>not knowing how to use Ochettes summon exploit to completely trivialize the game in its entirety I mean yeah, exploit but imagine using that deep sea dude that breaks 9 shields x4 and maxes the parties BP so you can do it Over and over and over again forever?
>>724399386>resorting to cheating with glitchesThat's completely unnecessary outside of the extreme difficulty spike super boss, and only if you're a bitch. It can be beaten legit as well. The rest of the game absolutely doesn't need that level of fuckery, using it will only make the game worse since you're basically playing with cheats on.
>>724399595Anon, I've beaten the game a year or so ago. Literally all I have left is bully enemies with exploits

>>724349920How in the everloving fuck is SaGa but absolutely worse in every regard "on of the best JRPGs of our generation"?Just play Emerald Beyond
>>724400468SaGa is not a normal jrpg. If you like it, then you're already well aware of this fact.
>>724400468SaGa is very hit or miss. Either you love it and proselytize it to everyone who will listen, or hate it and advocate that everyone stays away from it

>>724401624agreed, Temenos is extremely sexy
Good game with a lot of wasted potential. Octopath Traveler 0 is at least addressing how the game mostly squanders having 8 characters but making you choose 4. It could also use some dungeons like the Phoneix Cave or Kefka's Tower that uses two or more parties.
>>724358160really not a fan of the battle level stuff or whatever most of these games have

>>724400025Yes and extra included, which I don't want to ever touch again. And I'll let go as soon as 0 drops. Been replaying OT1 though
Octopath Traveler 0 is shaping up to be good. Building your own town in an RPG is comfy like in Skies of Arcadia. Really looking forward to 8 member parties
I thought there was enough character interaction between all the banter, in fight dialogue and crossroads chapters Yeah it's not a fully interweaved narrative including all 8 characters, but I feel like a lot of JRPGs structure their games like this indirectly without outright saying "ok this chapter will be pretty much exclusively about this character"
>>724405135feel that way about ff6 tee bee hach
>>724403216As Varg said stop watching porn
>>724404941Same. Bit of a shame it's built on OT1, OT2 just looks so beautiful at times. Also shame that we lost subclassing on 0. I still feel that being hardlocked with the characters 4 passives from their job is gonna be grossly limiting. 2 bonus passive and 3 learned skills doesn't look like enough to me.
>>724401728Nah it does. There’s wannabe jannies patrolling this board for any furry content they don’t like also this anon had a crash out because a character with a snoot is depicted with one and not with the typical moe styling.
>>724377689Was Partitio inspired by that black merchant from CotC
>>724407698Bargello's a thief.
>>724389954Merchant is one of the best and most versatile classes mainly thanks to Hired Help.Apothecary has Concoct which is basically FF alchemy and RPG alchemy is always broken. Alfyn has Amputate and Castti has Drastic Measures and those deal fuckhuge damage with proper setup.
>>724407881You can’t say that that’s racist
>>724397713>uses OT1 and CotC assets since both were made (and in progress) before OT2>less amount of in battle spritework to compensate for the sheer number of units>all 8 CotC Orsterra arcs are going to comprise of the main story considering the OCTOPATH title gimmick>30%-40% more content on top of that based on what the devs said>recycled music from OT1, OT2, and CotC with some new tunes exclusive to OT0I'd say it would probably be better than OT1 (not a high bar) but I don't think it'll surpass OT2 despite the sheer amount of content in OT0.
>>724402183based
Might as well make this a thing for now. What we know of 0 so far>Over 30 characters to recruit, 8 of which are the OT1 cast, 6(?) from cotc Story related members and the rest are brand new >Story content from cotc up to v2.14.0 (end of bestower of all) will be in the game while adding 30-40% of new material and adjusting the story to fit the MC>Will have an Arena where you capture monsters in the world to then challenge them for new spicy rewards and a Museum where you can listen to the games OST (like the phonograph from OT2) and exhibit legendary weapons you find in the world>Town building element which has its own Story (?) With a set limit of objects that can be places (250, 400 and 500 depending on system)>Game is about 100 hours long for Story completion, with minimal sidequest and town building>The Game>over 50 new sidequest in the game and party chat>It will not have gatcha elements, cotc mini games or cotc bonus stories like pets and beast summons (huge sad)>enemies has been fully revalanced on 0 (eliminating mobile bloat in hp and such)>Job system is gone for everyone but the MC who is the only that can change their job class. By default, subclasses are gone from 0 and instead it's even replaced with party members being able to learn 3 skills from mastering characters skill and passing them around and 2 passives additionally to the 4 you would learn from the job. >apparently there's more but In Pic related, it's a mystery for now on what it is.
>>724406939WatchNothing is going to happen
>>724408394Daddy……
>>724408939>6(?) from cotc Story related membersBargelloEltrixRichardAlauneSolonRondoThat already flatout confirms the story goes through BoA, yeah.
>>724408939God bless u anon. Amidst all the shitposting at least there’s someone posting game info
>>724349920
>>724408939>apparently there's more but In Pic related, it's a mystery for now on what it is.Wouldn't be surprised if they had EXTRA BATTLES planned with content directly from OT2 instead.
>>724409129Yeah I was a tiny bit apprehensive with the story details but everything Osterra story related should be here. Kinda excited to know how they will nerf the main 6 of cotc on 0, lol. >>724409145I'll try to clean it up and update if needed if we ever get another thread till the game releases or demo.
Why is he so perfect bros?
>>724349920>What am I in for bros?greatest jrpg visuals, can't possibly be surpassedalso excellently optimized for PC, runs great on anythingit has 8 heckin stories so don't mind anons who complain about that... most of them you'll find boring at one point or another but the one or two you actually finish... well, that's the game! the rest is just extrawhat else. cute girls, nice cities. decent music. can't say more. played once, nice memories

>>724409376so this is what owlcat named their studio after
>>724349920Bros… is this furry
>>724412070bro this is /v/ not /tv/
>>724409376What the fuck was that neck turn lmao
>>724412070And if it was? "Furry" is just a word, and the further you extend its definition, the more blurred it gets. Are you going to be held back by some blurry concept? Shackled through arbitrary boundaries that go as far or short as the next freak tells you? What do you want to hear? You like to beat your meat to it, but you don't want to be a furry? Let me assure you then that it isn't furry. Now fap away.
>>724349920Is this better than expedition 33
>>724414823I'm a fan of both and Expedition 33 felt better. Though I had more fun with replays for Octopath Traveler 2.
>>724410028>>724410191Fucking based
>>72441482399% of all RPGs are better than E33, get some taste, faggot
>>724403793thats when artist make their best works to make us lose
>>724417630the artwork doesn't disappear anon, just wait until December
>>724403793You people actually do that?
>>724417838absolutely, I consider it a test of my willpower and discipline. Similar reason people fast for things like Ramadan, minus the religious connotations
>>724418019hello fellow /x/ denizen
>>724417838 I only ever have wet dreams when I do NNN, haven't been able to have one any other time of the year
>>724418019Wtf
>>724349920>tfw you will never be an explorer and get a cute Beastling waifuWhy even live?
>>724417729no i need to release on those anime ladies thighs
>>724418019Two wet dreams and you're out? What if you naturally produce a lot of semen?
>>724422083You suffer harder or fail.
>>724422001Which anime ladies if I may ask
>>724422710the ones from videogames. human or creature
>>724422925Name them anon. I need to know
>>724423356i dont know yet. i need to wait til no nut season starts
>>724350894Nigga you gay
>>724349920Quick question, would it be better to start in 1 and go to 2 if I want to check out the series?
>>724428362No. Just play 2. Or better yet, don't. It's... fine. It's okay. Middling. There are better ways to spend your time. Ochette is cute though.
>>724422083naturally producing more semen doesn't make you more apt to having nocturnal emissions
>>724428362as someone who played both, I'd recommend jumping into 2. If you enjoyed it and want a slightly lesser experience, then try 1
>>724409772>A good guy pushed to extremes by circumstances completely out of his control>Never gives up or gives into despair>autistically goal oriented but understands other people might not be and tolerates or even accommodates them >(Osvald is showing everyone his written plans for a current mission, Ochette wants to contribute to the document so he lets her draw on the margins)>"LET ME SHOW YOU WHAT I'VE LEARNED" Even outside the coombait Osvald is a 10/10 character. The OT2 cast is top notch for an RPG.
>>724428765>Ochette is cute though.L take Agnea is cuter and doesn’t look like a freaky dog person.
>>724429214Agnea is married to the singing game though, you'll always come second. Ochette only has eyes for you
>>724385882Cuz people here have bad taste. Imagine if the OP was a cute girl like Primrose, Throne or Agnea instead of that ugly chihuahua.>>724429621Isn’t her whole gimmick being obsessed with jerky lmao
>>724349920It is. Best thing Squeenix has put out in a very long time despite having flaws
>>724430301based, I was considering getting a Temenos perler from Etsy
>>724430301It’s uncanny how much he looks like that nigga from that one anime
>>724429014How lease is the experience from 2 to 1? Like gameplay and story wise>>724428765What makes it middling
>>724364728Why the fuck are felines so aesthetically pleasing?Like even wild cats that haven't been bread for domestication are just so beautiful to look at (non sexually).It's like they were specifically designed to be attractive to humans before they even met...
>>724432670They have a lot of traits associated with cuteness. Big eyes, small noses, round faces, short mouth to nose to eye ratio.
>>724349920Sex with Ochette
>>724435987but where?
>>724436231idk, in the jungle?
>>724430804>looks almost identical >white hair>a cleric >will eradicate demos in the name of the flameCoincidence? I think not

Is this game like Triangle Strategy? I remember skipping the 1st one because it seemed dogshit
>>724349920If you liked 1, you're really gonna like 2By comparison, 1 feels like a solid rough draft, and 2 feels like what it was always meant to be, from any aspect Although I'm not big on plot or immersion, admittedly it was neat to have a handful of crossover chapters where certain travelers would share their own unique side adventures My only complaint (which is really my shortcoming, not a fault of the game itself) is I'm absolutely retarded as a tactician; I can't beat the final boss. Either because my retardation, it lv scales, or both, but it's like OT1 for me all over again Again, my fault, not the game's.Also, not a anthrofag by any stretch of the imagination, but I found it impossible to ignore ochette's charm. That said, I liked all the characters
>>724440549The final boss doesn't level scale but you have to kind of understand the system mechanics a bit to beat it. Assuming you mean the final boss and not the secret boss. The secret boss you need to absolutely abuse the shit out of the system mechanics if you even want a hope of surviving a couple turns, let alone beating it.
>>724440527No triangle strategy is a strategy game like final fantasy tactics. This a turn based rpg
>>724440549>1 feels like a solid rough draft, and 2 feels like what it was always meant to be, from any aspectwell said, that's exactly how I feel about it
>>724409376
>>724355450>>724355596>>724356479>Zoomzooms are so mindbroken from furries that they'll literally argue and cope themselves into knots just to not admit to finding one hot>"n-n-no anon you don't understand im not gettting a boner over A HUMANOID ANIMAL but over a HUMANOID WITH ANIMAL FEATURES theres a difference totes not a sodomite pinky swear"
>>724410191There is one pixiv artist obsessed with this Oswald. I am certain she self inserts as Throné.
>>724409376Cut out the last 4 seconds and you have a win.
>>724399954>what was your honest reaction to this?Hell yeah
>>724357885The artist is Russian so she might not be a “western furfag”. Honestly I think she did a really good job at maintaining an anime aesthetic while also given her a more defined and distinct face. IMO Russian artists make the best anthro drawings out there.
>>724349920>I got this game because /v/ told me it’s one of the greatest JRPGs of our generation.It's not. It's alright though.
>>724444197Cope
>>724349920I've seen the occasional Octopath thread pop up on /v/, but I avoided it due to spoilers. That said, I've now pretty much finished it, and it was tons of fun. I also chose Ochette too, OP; she's pretty fun to start with. also I really enjoyed this game, but I did not anticipate so many negative comments towards the game. There's so many dispersed throughout the thread.>>724428362I would suggest playing 1 and then 2. 2 has QOL stuff that would make playing 2>1 feel strange. That's with the assumption you're gonna be playing both games though. There are demos for both games, where you get to play for like 3 hours. Try them out if you wish.>>724364354I had the same experience. Having to watch 8 chapter 1's, and not getting to experiment much with team comps for the early parts of the game(since each chapter 1 is self-contained), was not really fun. Once I did push through those chapter 1's though, the game opens up a lot, so there's at least that to look forward to.>>724389954Merchant is a pretty nice all-around class. Arrow of Fortune is a fast way to farm JP, and you have some self-sustain with Rest if needed. The big ones, imo, are Donate BP and Hired Help. Donate BP is a pretty good supporting skill that allows you to accelerate your party's advantage(BP is the lifeblood of combat). Hired Help is a flexible skill that can buff, debuff, break, or do damage, as long as you have enough rupees leaves. Insanely good, but you do have to spend, but then again you have Collect for more funds. Fun class.Apothecary has some uses, but imo they are a little bit niche, yeah. It has decent application in 1v1 fights, where you can sustain yourself with Replenish Health(combine this with skills like "The Show Goes On" and "Resilience" for even more healing). Also, Poison Axe can apply poison, which deals %HP dmg, so you could poison stall fights if you want too.>>724408939Appreciate the compilation anon.
>>724446861Good post
>>724349920Why is she so hot bros?
>>724448519Uh...th-thanks?
Is this game gay as hell?
>>724350806jez... my comment is still up
>>724409376Please fix the ending.
>>724452249Why do you want to rape her anon
>>724450805 The shortness of the comment caught me off guard, and my initial reaction was that of confusion and the assumption that the comment was ironic, but upon reflection, I shall thank you for the comment, anon. I appreciate it.
>>724349920First game was boring ass shit that I barely managed to beat on regular ending.
>>724357871Obviously, cats don't have long snouts like foxes and wolves.

>>724452135Have you seen what Temenos and Crick get up to?
>>724452879How is my post relate to your anime autism you fucking retard?
>>724452963If you're the first post number you probably got clicked on to make a quick reply box open and then didn't get deleted on accident. The point being is that all anime drawings are basically cats and the argument is retarded
>>724360065That's clearly meant to look like a cat snout
>>724452879Anime is not cats. You are taking a 2D stylization and thinking it’s part of their design. All anime figures do not have anything resembling a cat’s face and that’s anime designs being translated into physical space. Look it up on google or just go to /a/ buyfag thread. Stop spreading this stupid bullshit. Anime girls have stylized human faces and have 2D stylizations but their faces are 100% human. That’s different from Ochette who has an actual snout giving her a cat-like face. Again the anime side profile is a stylization just like the anime side mouth. Anime characters don’t have their fucking mouth on their cheek, that’s a style choice to cut down on animation.
>>724453141>Posting from the frontYeah and cats have flat faced if you make it a flat drawing like anime is and they're facing the frontCongratulations, the entirety of anime goes off the facial composition of cats wig a wig still.
>>724452135
>>724453183This is an anime design translated into real physical space. What the fuck is cat like about it? Their faces are flat as fuck with mosquito bite noses, every anime girl figurine is like this because, surprise, anime faces are stylized human faces not fucking cat faces you dumb ass nigga. Their side profile in 2D is a stylistic 2D choice that doesn’t have reflect on their design. My point in my posts is that you have the opposite situation of an anime girl where they have a weird profile but have flat faces while Ochette has a stylized front facing profile but an actual muzzle like a cat.
>>724349920>/v/ told me it’s one of the greatest JRPGs of our generationit's baby's first saga game. it's fine, but it's certainly not the "greatest jrpg of our generation" good
I live and die by jRPGs but Octopath 1 was by far the most boring game I have ever played. It is one of the few times I made an active effort to play a game but could not bring myself to finish it. I cannot fathom how anyone could enjoy that game.
>>724453404You didn't post anime. You posted off model 3d merchandizing garbage meant to sell to consoomer pigs to put in a bottle and fill with their jizz. The character design was never created in mind with a 3d model and only tacked on lazily afterwards when whatever media it was in became successful. again, the composition and proportions of her face match the make up of a cats.
>>724453574No anime proportions match up with baby faces and those of children aka the baby schema. Cats have similar composition to babies but cats have totally different face structure than children. At its core animefaces are extreme baby faces. Also no, those figures are a translation of anime style into real physical space. Since anime characters are human and not fucking cat hybrids they never give them muzzles because that would be ridiculous. Even anime games like Nikke with a very moe style translated their character into a normal human face in stellar blade semi-realistic style. Which is to say those graphs are stupid and ignore that 2D stylization are just that, stylizations. No one translates anime faces to cat faces in 3D because that doesn’t make any sense. Likewise the opposite is true for the hybrid character because she’s actually meant to have a muzzle and that is translated in her physical figure even when she’s given a flat face on her front and 3/4 profile. You cats = anime niggas need to educate yourselves and stop spreading that stupid bullshit. That’s all I’m going to write because even this is too autistic for me lmao
>>724453813>Baby facesNope that's wrong, human baby proportions are nothing like that of anime. It matches the baby face profile of cats. Specifically kittens, which exaggerate the extremes infantilism even more. Just cause they're both the young offspring of different animals does not make human baby=kitten in proportion
>>724454054Yes lil bro anime faces are baby faces. Baby and cats share similar proportions (round faces, big eyes, small nose and a similar eye to nose to mouth ratio) but babies don’t have snouts or cat noses or fur. Anime characters have stylized human noses, flat faces, human lips and all that jazz because they’re highly stylized human faces. No anime human resembles a cat, they resemble humans and that’s fucking final.
>>724452135Partitio is commercesexual he is just thinking of ways to monetize Osvalds girth

>>724364383as far as schizos go its relatively light, but yeah Octopath has a dedicated schizo obsessed with snouts.
OPEN FOR BUSINESS
>>724456053The only schizo is the one that complained about the OP and has face blindness because a character he likes just happens to have a different face shape.
>>724456272Why is she making the white supremacist symbol

>>724442269I miss Hard Corps Uprising.
How good are the other Team Asano games if you enjoyed OT1 + OT2?
>>724459220Personally I enjoyed Triangle Strategy a lot and Bravely Default seems well regarded
>>724409376so this is why we need all those ai databases
>>724459742I’ve heard TS is super dialogue heavy, is that true? How is the gameplay is it similar to FFT?
>>724349920The greatest JRPG of your generation, but only because everything else released in your generation has been shit.
>>724461589I’m 34
>>724461347Yes, it's excessively verbose because the writers think you are a drooling retard, so every single plot point must be explained at least 5 times.>watch cutscene>watch cutscene where characters stand in a circle and talk about what happened>booted to world map, narrator summarizes what just happened>2-3 more cutscenes again talking about the same thing, often just a villain standing alone in their room and reiterating their intentions while cacklingIn the beginning the cutscene to gameplay ratio is like 80:20, but it eventually evens out to 50:50 (assuming normal/hard modes, if you play on easy then you're gonna spend more time watching people yap).FFT is lightning fast compared to this. Triangle Strategy is honestly a lot more like VN-SRPG hybrids such as Utawarerumono but IMO with none of the charm, the characters are very dry and lifeless.
>>724461347A lot of the cutscenes are optional, and personally I found the stretches of gameplay so long that I found the cutscenes a welcome reposeThe writing is not that interesting though, so even if it's not too in your face it isn't much of a strength
>>724462437I stand by my statement
>>724456272Made for BWC
>>724349920>What am I in for bros?A bad story, with bad dialogue, with bad voice acting, and bad graphics.
>>724439028saul goodman
>>724467465It’s all good man
>>724463069Man I love the Utawarerumono games. Also Uta 2-3 might possibly be the best SRPGs I've ever played in terms of having story reflect in gameplay.
>>724456272Yeah, the travel banter where Prim explains Tressa the concept of prostitution broke immersion for me, Tressa would immediately set up an auction.
>>724472283Hot
>>724349920I really, really like this image.

>>724465669NTA but then your statement is fuckin garbage. Millennials know exactly how garbage things have gotten since they grew up with it. They saw the like of every single great that has ever been made, as well as every dumpster fire that was ever released.Just fuckin take the L, faggot.
Why did they make a prequel when they could’ve made the third game
>>724481265no money, need to reuse phone game assets

>>724473271What do you like about it, anon?
>>724350894way more interesting than just a generic anime-tier animal ears and tail
>>724491137I like her design. I think having human skin instead of fur gives her a distinct look that’s not very common. I do wish they had kept the digitigrade legs as part of her design instead of human feet and legs.

>>724356121>>724366691Put about 100 hours into 2 (only because I didn't have any other turn based games to play) and finished all content including extra battles. It's worse. People are falling asleep because balance went down the shitter and no story boss in 2 has a way to reasonably threaten the player. Post game content is also boring since you're just abusing the same tricks the whole time. Music was a downgrade overall.You can keep overdosing on copium though while these posts continue.>>724351016The graphics are better and they marvel-ized the storytelling so they're rarely boring (barring agnea's, hikari's), just disappointing and usually filled with plot holes. The stories of 1 suffered from being too cliche and formulaic, the stories for 2 are just "plain bad">>724481751his plan for eradicating poverty is based on creating more jobs and spreading trade, while one of his chapters literally criticizes welfare and government interference, you tell me anon. Personally I think it's pretty clear cut he's just an idealized capitalist.
>>724399954the mobile game did it better, swapping between 2 parties felt awkward.
Find a flaw
>>724498573Sounds like you just got shit taste
>>724499014His story baited me because he kept saying share the wealth, only to find out his plan was just creating and giving people jobs. Japan is so cucked by capitalism that even their wealth sharing is capitalist.t. commie
