9 more days until releaseThoughts on the demo?Also, Octopath threadUncompressed Octopath 0 worldmap: https://files.catbox.moe/n7z0g7.png
>>3879796more slop for the piggies
>SlopTrough
>>3879796Not exactly excited since it's a retrofitted mobile game.
>>3879807Know the concern but this is a genuinely good game, going by the story of the mobile game. Also 0 doesn't remotely plays like a mobile game or has any signs of it even being from a mobile game. It's not a lazy port job like megaman dive
>>3879807The only part where it shows it used to be a mobile title is that the graphics are mostly from OT1. OT2 was a considerable visual upscale but CotC is technically older than it making OT0 look weird and dated.I hope they go further and add Emberflame or Side Solistia as DLC later but I'm not holding out for it.
I'm not getting it until it has been out for awhile and hits a 50% off sale. I have so, so many games on my backlog, own so many I haven't played or finished, and don't have the money to splurge on a brand new game that isn't an instant 10/10 for me.It looks fun though, I loved the other two games in the series so I'm sure I'll love it once I play it in the future.
>>3879796Octopath Traveler 1 was a 7/10 if I'm being generous. I liked the job system and swapping learned skills, but it was a bit flat.OT2 was a 10/10 in my book, and I feel they learned a lot. Having played a bit of CotC, I'm definitely excited to play this since the story was pretty damn great, and really hoping they bring the lessons learned from OT2 into this game.
are there any qt brown boys in this game or is the thief guy it? i'll probably use them on my team too, i'm just neutral about him
>>3879919Everyone in these games is extremely pixelated and don't even have visible facial features other than eyes. No one is cute.
>>3879926because you play these games for the epic original gameplay system and extensive world-building, right?
Are you getting this? I hope they do full scale figures for the rest of the travelers. They already got models for the OT2 travelers up to their torso from those pewter figures so that’s like half the work.
>>3879955No but that’s because I already have several figures, but I’d definitely get a throné one if they made one as she was main in octopath 2. Luckily these things take years to announce yet alone get painted (it took 28 months for them to show us primrose painted) so there’s plenty of time to save
>>3879919Therion is a tanned pretty boy.Solon is an older guy with tanned/brown skin.Olberic is a muscular older (former) knight with tan skin).Bargello is black-coded especially since he has dreadlocks and one of Partitio's beta designs was probably based on him.
I'm pretty excited for this, I played COTC up to Heaven and then dropped it because I didn't want to spend weeks on the weapon gacha before the final boss.
>>3880068I stopped a bit over halfway into BoA, still in hell. Heard the final boss is very bullshit and has more phases than a schizo with multiple personality disorder.
>>3880113It's only 3 main phases. 3rd phase is like.... 4-5 parts and that functions like Galdera's and Vide's limbs where you can't damage anything BUT the limbs until you destroy them and continue to the next part.English info got an update. Matches perfectly with the skill datamines. https://www.rpgsite.net/news/19016-octopath-traveler-0-screenshots-showcase-path-actions-amity-levels-party-chat-ocean-exploration-three-more-travelers
>>3879937I mean, the graphics are cute. But characters all have the same face, one can't be cuter than another

>>3880252>boost & breakBut yeah, the CotC songs are good overall.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNnT3EfrlG4
>>3880150Do we have a more organized skill list and to who they belong to?
>>3880397The current txt file is fine enough as is, especially considering the demo doesn't have everything: Tressa's confirmed to have Hired Help thanks to the reveal trailer, and it's not listed at all.If you want the full one, wait for the dataminers to get the full game I guess.
Will this be the first child character in a mainline game? Ochette is a midget and Tressa is a womanlet
>>3879796Are the other 2 actually good or just good by modern SE standards?
SEX WITH AGNEA!!!!!
>>3880252 Wait until you hear the Bestower of Wealth Music
>>38804802 is good
Threesome sex with Castti and Ochette
>>3880473>lil dude is so fucking tiny he's standing on a small crate We got a genuine shota before we got a loli
>>3880677>Shota>Voiced by Aoi Yuuki, a shotaconI’m not joking
Series so lacking in substance only waifu/husbandofags talk about it. Might as well play H-RPG Maker slops instead.
>>3880687They know. They really know
>Gave Terra a better looking sprite in CotC than in fucking Pixel DemasterFUCK SQUARE ENIX I HATE SQUARE ENIX
First for sex with Ochette
>>3881417Not until the sequel.
>>3881379>>Gave Terra a better looking sprite in CotC than in fucking Pixel DemasterThe new sprites are closer to the original concept art in terms of color and design, and consistent with the artstyle of the game.The Octopath artstyle is completely different and use bigger character sprites.The FF6 sprites were improved over the original and made more consistent.
>>3881433>The FF6 sprites were improved over the original and made more consistent.FF6 shouldn't be that saturated. 3 and 5, sure, but the PRs missed the point on the color tones of 4 and 6: 4 is light pastels, 6 is intentionally drab. Primaries are not the right way to go.
>>3881433The new sprites are flatter (use less contrast).High contrast sprites made FF6 stand out from the previous games. I don't really care what the illustrations look like because final illustrations were fucking made after the game. Just look at Stragos, bro looks old in the old game, in the new he looks like a boiled egg. PR sprites are trash, end of.
Where are the cute girls
>>3880181Need...Put her into Primm outfit and make her lapdance for La'mani please
>>3879926They still have cute expressions tho
I thought her plight was just being physically abused and bullied by her master and the other sluts, but damm, wasn't expecting her to be raped by that egg dude, that caught me by surprise. I think this is the first time a Square Jpig is that on the nose with a stuff like that? Heck, since the night show is closed for poorfags, wouldn't be surprised if the owner whored his girls during it. Made me quite sad, Primmose is cute
>>3881825Why is this white girl sngry
>>3881835You didn't buy her Labubus
>>3881839Ain't buying shit from that bitch. She doesn't have Partitio's charisma and sex appeal.
>>3881423There's zero excuse why none of the OT2 characters are in OT0. They already said the OT1 characters are not canon, might as well go all out on the fanservice.
>>3881888Sure let's just have half the roster be cameo characters that are explicitly non-canon, that makes a lot of sense. I'd rather they had another spin-off in Solistia and have them there or just create DLC for 0 with more content from CotC later although I wouldn't really hold out for that.
>>3881842What if Partitio and Tressa had sex?
>>3881934Partitio already has a mentally unstable girl lusting after him. Second rate merchants like Tressa need not apply.
>>3881931>another spin-off in Solistiaw.. what's the sequel to zero?
>>3881941Side Solistia in CotC was ass.
>>3881967Yeah it seems like an afterthought, not nearly as fleshed out as COTC. Too big to be DLC but too small to be a game on its own, in addition to being too tied to the 0/COTC cast. Who knows what will happen.
>>3882022>tfw I wouldn't mind if it was paid DLC just so I could play with the OT2 cast again
>>3881417Why is she so hot bros?
>Metroid 4 leaked>still nothing on 0Reeeeeee!!!!
>>3881939Ori is Solistian Tressa.
>>3882183>A big and beloved series leaked>2nd rate HD2Dslop didn’t Dumb anime poster
>>3882183where? /v/ thread has nothing about a leak and idk where else to look
>>3882207My bad by leak I mean some faggot bought it early somehow, it was the switch 2 version and as you would imagine, he won't leak. But the games are out there so it's a matter of time till someone does rip
>>3882189>metroid>big and belovedcute and ironic
>>3880691I mean compared to other threads these are pretty minimal when it comes to that talk. The only obnoxious ones are oshitefags.
Man, what the fuck..Out of all chapter 1 missions, Primrose got the messiest, smelliest, thornies stick. Everyone else at least manage to get things done and went into their journey in good terms. While her was being cumdumped by the bald fucker and lost her only fren when she escaped. Thought Olberic would be the one with the most protag energy since everything comes back to Hornburg incident, but she was way more going on
>>3882352theres a reason for the original demo of 1 they had Olberic and Primrose playable, they have the most immediately striking stories
>>3882368Yeah, they really have that protag energy going. Cyrus quest will probably only have a payoff later, as from what I experienced on his CH 2, Tressa, Therion and CHADfyn will probably be more or less just a personnal gig of theirs, Ophilia feels like a very safe journey, and then I believe she will be guided by her god to fight the communal big bad. H'annit has potential, depending on how the "Beast" turn to be, but Olberic and Primm were the ones that delivered more so far
Sex with primrose
>>3882376Calm down crown-fren, I got dibs on her til she's 21, then you can have my used goods
Countdown images for release have been up for a while. Might as well get these posted here too.
>>3882622
>>3882624
>>3882627
>>3882628
>>3882629damn it's really just four more days. OT2 got leaked 4 days before release
>Leaklets crying againCope
>>3882678What's there to leak? We all know that this is just cotc with no gatcha and a townbuilder.
>>3880406It's probably in the game just doesn't have a name in the demo. Same for enemies that lack localization in the demo's files: they'll just appear as "Error." You can even get to some of the locked off areas in the demo if you hack your speed to be high enough (on gbatemp there's a speed up cheatcode, just change the speed value to something extremely high like 4FFFFFFF), like the Ceremonial Square in Emberglow and Tyrus's Cathedral and there'll be skills, items, enemies, etc. with the name "Error." Sadly can't get to any other towns as they've put actual invisible walls there and not just a sign but the entire game seems to be functionally already in the demo, just lack textures, music, and text.
>>3882022Maybe there'll be a reference to it in OC0's post-game. King Alfred was in OC2 so there's already a connection between Orsterra and Solistia
>>3882691I want OT2 content as well (because it's a better game than OT1), but let's not get our hopes up.
>>3882022>look up Side Solistia>one of the bosses has 88 shields >one of them has 7.5 million HPJesus Christ, the powercreep. I guess you can't just make a new Gacha for OT2
>>3882634Well technically 5 days for us, 4 for the other half of the world because lol timezones. Tomorrow is 4 days left. Wish this was like Bandai? Capcom? Forgot who on what game where we would get updates around 9 PM which was like midnight for Japan or something.
>>3882695>one of the bosses has 88 shieldJesus fucking christ FUCK that motherfucker. Holy shit, no other boss has ever made me seethe like that one. I think it was chapter 6 final boss? Then the double nigger the moment it loses 25% of its health or whatever it flipped the switch to having 22 shield I believe and slap super armor or whatever where only the first hit of weakness of each character counted for the shield deterioration. So you had to attack him 22 indivual times to break unless you had some bullshit setup to trim out his shield fast. Then because of course, 3 attacks per turn when that happened and hits like a truck + multi hit bullshit.
>>3882781This shit is why I quit at Orsazantos. >go grind heaven weapons after you just spent several months grinding hell weaponsFUCK YOU
btw I manged to edit the HP of one enemy in OT0 but the method isn't great to say the least. The datatypes aren't allowed to change because the filesize of the uexp file has to stay the same (or at least I haven't gotten it to work otherwise). So, say, an enemy has 20k HP, then you can't increase it beyond 32768. If it has 500k HP, you can't increase it beyond 2^32 etc. Hope modders find a more elegant way of doing that. At least I now know how to buff late-game bosses in case they really are pushovers in the full game
Gacha cucks out
>>3882840Cope
>>3882840Wait I need to grind heaven weapons? I thought hell or fortune weapons were enough?
>>3882629
>>3883013Forgive me sacred flame for what I'm about to do...
>>3883032>lusting over womenFaggot
>>3883013What's the lore of the Irish looking lady on the left?
>>3883185That's your MC. These countdown consist of 1 new character, 1 OT1 character and your MC sharing the same job class.
I'd day one buy this if the detail of the characters were improved to the level of OT2.Might just wait for a sale unless I can't find anything else to play.
party size is too bigshould never be more than 4 in combat unless it's like the super boss in 2
but where else will i fit my harem of grown men and throne expies
>>3883299Fag
>>3883310true. there's a lot of us here lol, it's squeenix
>>3880480Both are very good. I don't know why that other anon is only saying 2 is good, he's wrong. Both games are solid and worth playing especially if you can get them on sale. They offer a good challenge, voice acting is well done, the world is fun enough to explore, dungeons are short and sweet, and the music and graphics are both nice. Try them and form your own opinion.
>>3879803>>3879801Slop isn't just something you dislike anon, stop overusing it or it will lose its meaning.
>>3882840What game are we talking about here? I'm out of the loop. I only played OT1+2.
>>3883295I fucking loved that they did that. I want to see more games with large casts of characters allow you to utilize everybody by the end, or for superbosses at the very least. It makes it worth finding the best gear for everybody, leveling them all up, learning how to play each class or style. That to me helps make a game perfect.Final Fantasy VI was a bit ahead of its time in that sense.
>>3883339It’s gacha niggers they think they can come to vrpg instead of staying in their containment board
>>3883340Same. In CotC, you had to form three 8-player parties for the final boss (i.e. 2 back-up parties, not like in OT1), I hope they keep that in OT0
>>3879796I played the Demo.I named my Character Jack.I should've named him Thornby. I will do so once the full game is released.
>>3883339CotC (original gacha version of OT0)Obviously the devs rebalanced it (confirmed by the director to been done multiple times by testers at that) it for OT0. Otherwise, the damage scaling would be impossible to deal with it without the level of powercreep in the gacha.
>>3883013>>3882629>Laurana but no Phenn for Wishvale symmetry>Delithia but no Pius for literal who symmetryWhat the fuck is this level of inconsistency
New character trailer, showing the voices behind all revealed characters and some ults from OT1 characters and guardians of light https://youtu.be/2mVQ0S-haHA?si=UJ1S_H-xw1O4WkF4
>>3883452This is probably the first "tier 2" battle theme I enjoyed from the series, since the sea/boat fight for OT2 shouldn't count.
>>3883452>only 3k viewsIt’s over dead on arrival
Holy shit they’re actually gonna do 36 niggas in a row
>>3883295They can't replicate the hype of that moment over and over. Meanwhile, I think this way makes for a meaninful development in strategy. You can store up BP in the back, but your buffs will expire, you also get tricky party build decisions where you have to manage which skills will not be used at the same time. I have to frontline my hunter to Leghold an enemy, so what do I lose in exchange for that? How far do I rely on auto HP regen, and does that create a risk of needing to switch a character back in while they're vulnerable?Just hope the difficulty merits the potential depth.
Trying to beat 2’s superboss. How should I strategize using this party. Biggest flaw so far after only getting to half of phase 1 is that I’m relying too much on setup for big damage numbers using One true magic
>>3883499>conjurer anyoneLiterally why. It's the worst job in the game.
>>3883484Merchant (You) exploits that with the 4th passive: you can siphon BP from your backline unit.
>>3883509>>3883499Armsmaster is better on Osvald than everyone else. That gives him the ability to triple stack element boosts to maximize his damage.Hikari already rams the damage gap with Giant's Club and then you give him the strongest dagger/bow/whatever to go with your learned skills. Hikari is unironically a good Conjurer as a result.
>>3883509Didn't find out until I played more lmao. At the very least Rite of the Sun has saved me a few times
Achievementshttps://www.exophase.com/game/octopath-traveler-0-xbox/achievements/
>>3883533Let me guess. Reimi's country or whatever is going to be relevant or at least something lore-related to her, right.She's isolated into her own spotlight in here too anyway >>3883452
>>3883533>Amatsukami no OrochiWell huh. Since Isla was there I thought the postgame was going to be the Tower of Remembrance imported from CotC but I guess we're just getting something new?
>>3883549Reimi's probably important considering they only showed her off in that CotC stream, updated the site with ONLY her (and Pardis), and has her in her own special slot before the Guardians of Light in that song trailer. And they still didn't reveal that female thief for some reason.
>>3883533What the fuck is that huge dragon thing?
>>3883533>obtain all secondary jobsExcuse me???
>>3883589Going by Etrian Odyssey achievement listings, I'm assuming it's the new superboss. Probably for that HUGE 32-man fight in the reveal trailer because there's no way in hell they'd mess up with the BoA final boss's mechanics that much.>>3883013<< This is probably the worst countdown pic for OT0.
>>3883590We're in Orsterra and the shrines should still be technically there despite the change in routes and paths. But literally only (You) can class change, so I don't know what they're thinking if 3 (or all 4 of them) end up being useless for the whole game.
>>3883597But by secondary job does it actually mean the advance jobs or us unlocking our regular jobs?
>>3883599I'm assuming it's just the 8 main jobs since the job wheel in the menu is perfectly aligned and the achievement's worth 15 whatevers like the easy stuff you get "Max boost for the 1st time" or "Break an enemy for the 1st time."Especially considering none of the secret jobs mechanically existed in CotC since they ended up being shoehorned into one of the base 8.ie Arcanist Osvald is in the Cleric summon pool
>>3883533>the ring/arc achievements are even in the correct order for the OCTOPATH title gimmickProps to them for knowing what they're doing, I guess.
>>3883380>>3883433Ah cool, I'm looking forward to playing it sometime in the future. I don't want to pay full price so I won't get it right away since I'm playing lots of other stuff now and have 3 games on the way from Cyber Monday deals - Monster Hunter Stories 1/2 (in a single pack for $25, sick), Raidou Remaster, and Unicorn Overlord.
>>3879891>I have so, so many games on my backlog, own so many I haven't played or finishedHow is this even possible? Do you just buy games and not play them? I have nothing left to play and am waiting for releases. Imagine having a backlog lol.
>>3883589>>3883591There's a boss in the EnemyID file with 1.2 million HP whose parts are labeled after the 4 Dragonstones and the final few lines from the datamined voice lines mention the Dragonstones and gods. The bosses in EnemyID after that also likely refer to the dragonstones with their labels: ExBoss_Dragon_RedOrb_01 etc.There's voiced lines of Galdera announcing himself above the dragonstone line. I think that's connected:The name apparently means something like "the Great Serpent sent by the Heavenly Gods" but it could be a form of Galdera, powered by the four Dragonstones in the fight (they have an on and off texture).One of the final lines is someone shouting "Dragonstones!," the previous lines is some character taunting the player, likely a human. My guess is that Nomos summons Galdera (likely corresponds to labels AGM_Boss_Chp8_05_01 to _03 with some helper enemies _Chp8_06 and _Chp8_07) and uses the Dragonstones in the second phase (likely corresponds to AGM_Boss_Chp8_08_01 + the orbs). I say that because 05 til 07 just happen to not drop any XP or money but 08_01 does, BoA is 03-04, and 05-08's texture folders are numerically right next to each other, suggesting a secret, 2-phase "true" final boss after BoA. 05 has a right and left arm apparently, and they all (besides what I assume are helper enemies) have the LL_CS suffix: LL here probably means very large, enemy textures are sorted by S, M, L, LL. All the bosses in the demo appear to have the CS suffix which is why I think they label bosses but I've got no idea what that abbrevation could stand for.That label is another reason why I think it's related to Galdera: Besides 05 and 08, the only other enemy in the game with the LL_CS suffix is Lyblac, and given that a fight against Galdera is implied in the voice lines, he'll most likely occupy one of these LL_CS folders, which only leaves 05
>>3883628> Do you just buy games and not play themR-Right? Who would do that haha...
>>3883690Someone who's retarded
>>3883628I don't really get it either, the games I have unplayed in my Steam library are because I got them from bundles or whatever and don't really plan on playing themMost of the time I'm pretty good at recognizing if I'll like a game enough to finish it and if not I just refund it before 2 hours played
>>3879891You shouldn’t let money control your life decisions. Be free little piggy
This series sucks since there’s no cute girls
>>3883753>This series sucks since there’s no cute girlsThank god I can have a party of badass dudes and don't have to play as a bitch.Fixed it.
>>3883753there ARE cute girls, you just don't like the cute girls we get
>>3883759They all suck except Tressa
>>3883533>37 achievementsseems like an octopath 2 style achievement list and not octopath 1s weird 88 achievements
Okay, seriously: how the fuck do I beat Galdera in Octopath 1? I'm so fucking sick of this. My whole team is around level 68 after fighting the 8 bosses before him. I'm on like, try 10. Am I just stupid? No matter how much I maximize my defense it's either bullshit AOE or bullshit retarded high single damage and I have to spend turns reviving characters. I wanted to do this thematically with my two groups being ordered in the way I met the character but now I don't even fucking care I just want this bitch to die.
>>3883799Go gain 31 more levels real quick
>>3883799been a long time since the last time I did that fight in 1 but you're at around a point where levels matter less than gear/build. Pic related is the build from the old info doc, its more or less what I remember using for it. First 4 are team 2, second 4 are team 1. Cyrus spamming light spells iirc is the main damage for first phase, Olberic spamming Warmaster ult is the damage for phase 2Alfyn/Ophilia give extra turns and throw Jam or BP items around, Therion/Haanit exist to Leghold Trap and occasionally damage, Tressa/Primrose buff and do general utility thingsthe fight in 2 is harder

how is this still not leaked?fucking bullshit.
anons told me it would leak one week early and here im sitting everyday cooked like an absolute idiot.
bros i can feel it. the game is gonna leak tonight.can you feel it too?
>>3884299Some reddit fags already posted about getting their copies.
Will there be a sex scene with Isla
>>3884340idk who that is but i'm assuming it's a child character so kill yourself
im only looking at nxbrew. any other site i should constantly refresh?
>>3884341There are no child characters in Octopath doe
>>3884351tressa and ochette? and there's a little boy that someone posted on here. i count them all
>>3884355Tressa is an 18 year old 5’3” girlOchette is a 4’3” 20 year old furry pigmyThe apothecary might legit be a child but until that’s confirmed Octopath has no children characters.
I don’t get what niggas see in Ochette. She has an uncanny as fuck design, she looks like she’s an extra from an extremely goofy movie and she’s a fucking midget. Her design would improve a 100 times fold if they had made her a regular cat girl with only cat ears or a Mithra style cat girl. Instead you have whatever the fuck she’s suppose to be.
>>3884382shes cute, awoos, and has a good personality for the story she goes through
>>3884356Actually never mind. CotC has one child character from a Final Fantasy collab. It’s the one with the paintbrush
>>3884341Isla is my cute wife(husband).
0 is a prequel so should I even bother playing 1 and 2?
>>38845841 is dated. Solid, but with obvious flaws.2 is overall better than 1 in... almost everything actually.0 is a prequel, but goes against some of the established mechanics of the series:- it's a repurposed console version of the gacha- it has the entire Orsterra arc from the gacha- self-insert MC with recruitable characters, nobody else can subjob for shenanigans and creativity- since you only have one "MC" and it's following the Orsterra arc, you "technically" have a more coherent singular story than 8 different onesI still think 2 is a better entry.
>>3884382I just >pretend she's a brown, womanlet catgirl so I'm not a furry.>>3884585This makes me wish more gacha made "real" games. Gachas are beyond gay, but if they make "real" games like this and Granblue Fantasy Relink- that's a middle-ground I'll accept. If Umamusume got a burnout 3/takedown style racing game, I'd pay for that.
>>3884593>Granblue Fantasy RelinkThat doesn't even make a dent into the gacha's story (which was a goddamn mess and ended its over-6-year-long main arc with a wet fart of retcons, asspulls, and disappointment just recently).
>>3884593>>3884595If anything, Relink was more of a Gaiden game - or high-quality and permanent event - for the gacha.
>the game actually leaked last night like i predicted>have to get to work for 8 hoursAaaahhh kill me niggerman

>sazantos only uses Swords>Almighty: buffs both offenses and defenses>random 2 hit sword skill and light skill>random 4 hit light skill>AoE heal from front or back and cast regen at full boost>his strongest move is a sword skill that does more hits the higher the boost>skill to apply weakness regardless of damage source, last 2 turns without boostThis dude is fucking Rad
>>3884703Forgot pic
>>3884705Kinda disappointed that icon was for a job that is exclusive for a sole character.
>>3884621Sorry im way to late but just in case you still need it nxbrew.>>3884659Anon why would you not spoiler that.>>3884701Its a lovecraft reference.
Sry dudes when i clock spoiler bracket it doesnt hide so few questions. Sazantos is a permanent unit or timed? Is there any superboss if yes is is galdera again?Did the final boss change?Will delete previous post cause spoiler tab not working sorry again

>>3884593>I just >pretend she's a brown, womanlet catgirl so I'm not a furry.Kek weak ass niggaDoes anyone know if there’s an actual 36 niggas in a row battle in the game
>>3884724Chances are that's for the new superboss.Final boss of BoA (aka the gacha's Orsterra arc) doesn't have the same background.
>>3884705So El is kinda similar. Handful of basic skills, almighty too and instead of a sword attack that increase hit count per boost is a light magic attack that does it.
>>3884707Temp unit. He leaves you the moment you start the master of all arc ep 1. What I'm trying to figure out is if you will have the facilities needed to master their skills so you can learn them by that point
Returning All to Nil https://o.uguu.se/tXdJMKtJ.mp3Those Summoned from Nil https://n.uguu.se/KPaTsdDW.mp3Yet I Carry On -Ending Theme of OCTOPATH TRAVELER 0- https://o.uguu.se/cJhaljvH.mp3Names might be wrong.
>>3884735Uh.............
>>3884735Honestly, these sound underwhelming compared to both OT1 and OT2...
>>3884735KINOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>3884735I hear Isle of Orsa + Daughter of the Dark God theme in the first time.
>>3884735So wait, is there another arc after BoA or something.
>>3884745The enemy labels kinda tell there were more battles after BoA
I Wonder the same if the ending changed and whos the superboss
>>3884746Oh...
idk anything about all that, how much from cotc is lifted into this game
>>3884751BoA is the final arc for the Orsterra arc.This boss does NOT match up with the final boss of BoA, in more ways than one.
>>3884747Superboss is confirmed to be Amatsukami no Orochi in the achievements list, much like how Galdera was before.
>>3884735So wait. Sazantos is a permanent unit this time?
>>3884757Look at his level. Something must be up.
>>3884758Wouldn't be surprised if he gets back to his senses and rejoins at lvl 90
>>3884735I can hear a bit of Orsa's theme in the first one. Is she fought in another fase?
Well, so far for what we know we can't inherit Sazantos skills or passives or at least the uploader hasn't found any other method to do so. So either we are fucked from getting stuff from special classes or being forced Locked till some other point
>>3884759But the fact is that if this takes place after BoA, that means he got resurrected or something despite after being consumed by the 7 rings.
>>3884762>So either we are fucked from getting stuff from special classesMakes sense. Did he try with the other Guardians of Light?
>>3884766He's not that far yet. Should have asked about El though, that I forgot
>>3884711Oh damn that's lame. I have it on steam. Not going to play on an emulator today and then redo it all when it launches tomorrow. Was hoping it had a PC leak.
>>3884701>Please don’t use racist language like thatStop trying to police peoples language. Only authoritarian fascists try to stop free speech.
>>3884735I wasn't feeling it until the opera from Daughter of the Dark God came on. I guess Wishvale storyline goes beyond the end of Bestowers and has its own conclusion since those themes are using Wishvale leitmotif.It's pretty kino ngl
So considering that the town building can allow us to change haircuts and hair colors, does it allow other stuff to be changed like those 2 two masteries you choose at the beginning or...
>>3884785>Only authoritarian fascists try to stop free speech.No I don't, you can say nigger as often as you like under Partitio's reich.
>>3884744>>3884735MALE singer doing DoDGVide or Lucian?
>>3884735My prayers have been answered. I admit I was expecting for an Orsa's island theme battle remix even before BoA Chapter 8 was a thing in the JP gacha. Considering Yasunori himself said Orsa's island theme was his favorite, kinda suprised it took about 3 years to get it done.Are those names for the soundtrack in the filenames? Return All to Nil/Zero sounds rad.
Battle 0 lowkey has DoDG progression hidden in it all along, I can't prove it because I don't know music theory very well but I hear it
>>3884593Anime catgirls are still furrry btw>>3884785No being racist is a bad character trait. Be better.
>>3884837>No being racist is a bad character trait. Be better.No it isn't, it's 100% adaptive and morally correct. Fuck off anti-pattern recognition mind-hater.
>>3884766Okay so, Sazantos and El, can't get their shit, which sucks huge balls. Guess their kit is too strong
>>3884831Names are from the Gramophone. I don't have a perfect methodology to link them to the correct files, hence "might be wrong.">>3884834You reminded me that I forgot to upload Battle 0-2https://litter.catbox.moe/kfgghqu04mj7nova.mp3I also just realized uguu is only a 3-hour host now, so here's longer-lasting litterbox links:https://litter.catbox.moe/9n5ld6ospa42ewmh.mp3https://litter.catbox.moe/pgyos016pchywood.mp3https://litter.catbox.moe/kdqoku5wmlqrsnaf.mp3
For anyone who doesnt want to look as retarded as me and cant decipher what the flavour text meant - do not build the stupid totem in your hideout.I was wondering why i didnt get exp in the demo anymore and now in the full version aswell. Thought it had to be because im fighting low level enemies or something and kinda scratched my head after still not getting any exp after fighting lvl 20 enemies with lvl 9 characters.Totem = challenge = 0% exp
It’s joever it sold worse than 2
https://www.reddit.com/r/OctopathCotC/comments/1mgqdnt/behold_ordera_the_1000_real_final_boss_of/Joke post basically predicted one of the final bosses. I'm fucking laughing right now.
>>3884966Why are you laughing... does the actual final boss look like that?
It's not far off from the reddit post to be honest, you could say he basically spoiled everything with the reddit post even for cotc players xD
Kill all Redditors and gacha cucks
Is this game not selling as well really a death blow to this series? It’s a remake of a phone game that already has a lot of assets made for it. Development couldn’t have been that costly
>>3885011>Is this game not selling as well really a death blow to this series?No, considering this cost next to nothing to make. SE is all about hedging bets on more minor properties rather than massive "too big to fail" projects since late 2023 and it's been working out for them thus far.
How do you know what it sold when it hasn't even passed the release date are you a fucking lunatic

got through all of the chapter 1 quests. this game is kinda mid but the voice acting is REALLY good. the wishvale stuff is by far better than any of the wealth/fame/power bullshit they make you play through
>>3885519It's pretty dumb and isn't an industry standard. Plenty of games still use male/female and Lords of the Fallen even went back and got rid of type A/B. That being said, I'm still going to play a game I like even if it has A/B no matter how dumb it is.

>>3885871finished fame route chapter 3, i take this back. i'm assuming these three main routes are all lifted wholesale from the mobile game, right? is there a lore reason why auguste's true form looked almost exactly like redeye from ha'anit's story in octo1?
>>3886260Fraid so. Low effort game as expected by Sloptopath
>>3886260>i'm assuming these three main routes are all lifted wholesale from the mobile game, right?Yeah, except they add "and Wishvale" to the list of all the bad shit they did.The initial Masters are nothing. Wait until you get to the Bestowers.
Skill mastering seems like it could snowball hard but seems wildly inconsistent. Why can Stia's version of Donate BP be mastered but not Tressa?
>>3886559It wants you to spend JP on other characters. Donate BP can be grabbed from Stia and/or (You).You're going to need to farm with Olberic since he's literally the only one with Surpassing Power.
>>3886561>You're going to need to farm with Olberic since he's literally the only one with Surpassing Power.I was going to do the same with Viator's chance of +1 BP on hit skill. Should crack the action economy wide open.
>>3886561>You're going to need to farm with Olberic since he's literally the only one with Surpassing Power.Imagine not having the main character of Octopath 1 in your party.
>>3886618>the main character of Octopath 1Cyrus?
We will be having graphic, baby-making sex with Saoirse while Stia watches.
>>3886631Heidne is the canon wife of John Octopath though
>>3886631this but it's delitia and laurana where the fuck is she we got phenn so early. don't actually tell me either
>>3886625No, it's obviously Olberic and Osvald is the main character if 2.
>>3886631This but with Isla instead
Don't bother grinding Sazantos (and likely El) when you get them: none of his skills are heritable.
>>3886698>(and likely El)Correct.
Does surpassing power raise the JP per max damage Arrow of Fortune to 1999?
where are fire soulstones
>you can get the boat and to grandport before even starting master of allnice
>>3886703Arrow of Fortune is calculated by % of damage produced regardless of enemy's current hp, so most likely yes.>>3886725You buy them from the Wishvale shop when they show up, have the weapon NPCs in town supply them randomly, or >>>>steal them from the things in Auguste's Theatropolis dungeon.
Sawashiro Miyuki my beloved...
>>3886843>no chud, dismembering the dead and fedexing their bits to their families and friends is a compliment in my culture!
>>3886732>went to shipwreck isle to look for goodwin>nobody except an elite monsterI hate that they lock out characters based on progression.
>>3886880Don't you have to do that in games? Most fights are designed with access to certain characters. Also makes sense story wise that you wouldn't run into people, plus most people wouldn't know who to pick if you got flooded with characters. You usually introduce them slowly so people can try them out 1 at a time.
I'm baffled that anyone would buy this shit. Out of curiosity, I've watched a video of Auguste's final boss battle. It's a 1:1 port of the free game for cellphone, all dialogues, lines and scene were exactly the same, minus for one or two differences.I'll keep my wallet closed unless they did some outstanding improvements in the rest of the game, I'm willing to bet that even the dungeons are going to have the same designs.Auguste was the sole amusing master of COTC, the other two were boring and Pardis was the average power hungry villain with two braincells and after him I quit the game.
>>3886984That's... the point. They ported the story from the gacha into a game that lets you not deal with any of the gacha bullshit. More gacha games should do that.>wah wah I hate the storyk
>>3886938Nah that doesn't count in this case as Goodwin is functionally already triple locked without the arbitrary "spawns in Bestower of Power 4" part.You already need to>beat the initial Finale>get the boat>find the unmarked island on the ocean world map in an area much higher level than the party would beShould just have him standing there: if you get him early, you deserve him
>>3886984>I'm baffled that anyone would buy this shit.I specifically didn't play COTC because it's a phone game, which is shit to play on. Now that it's on a real system like a PC I want to play it.
>>3886993>"spawns in Bestower of Power 4"FUCKI'm only in Master of All 3 right now
>>3886993It's not unmarked, when you can get him it displays a companion quest like for all the others. It doesn't tell you he's just lying at the entrance, though.
>>3886984This opinion is weird. Of course they basically ported the gacha's SO story + some takes to console for people who don't play gacha. Wasn't that the fucking complain for all this time? Goodness.Wish sqex ports some of their dead gachas. Re;universe was the last one I played before the global shutdown a year ago.
>>3886994You could play all the way down to the end of Master of All without touching the shitty gacha elements even once because the gameplay was braindead easy, and that was the sole positive about it. If you want to spend your money on a paid version that plays almost exactly the same, then go ahead, it's not up for me to decide what you do with your money.
>>3887004You're clearly butt blasted though
>>3887003I'm guessing he had more expectations of this game to the level of OT2 and better thanks it being hyped up. Except his hopes were let down like mine.
It's not the same. They added a new story for the MC, they voiced every cutscene, they improved some BG assets and rebalanced the whole thing to actually play with a sensible progression curve (right now in CotC you can just roll for someone like Pardis and steamroll almost entire story), it's not like they literally just took the mobile game and made it run on Windows. If you think that's not worth your money that's fine. Personally I think it's more of a credit to the mobile game that it felt more or less like a real Octopath game whereas most SE gachas just sort of play themselves.
>>3886984and /v/ says mobilefags don't play video games.
>>3887004>I specifically didn't play COTC because it's a phone game, which is shit to play on.Did you not read my post? I didn't play it because it was on a phone, which is garbage to play anything on.
>>3887020>gachas just sort of play themselvesI mean that's the point for gachas.Octopath (and Dragalia) feel like the only outliers.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sqk-r7QZ7Jk

>>3887143Also what's so good about him? Is it just his aoe slow ability? I dislike gay fan users. Thought he would be amazing with how much that guy was complaining.

>>3887451How easy is it to gear everyone out late game. Trying to avoid grinding as much as possible to not make the game ez mode and I feel like I never have enough money to gear out my main 8, let alone all 36.
>>3887469Just put down the 0 Exp statue
>>3887483To me grinding is grinding. Just going through the story normally to see what it's like. If I was going to grind for money I might as well grind for xp as well. Curious to see how hard it is to gear and do the story without any grinding.
>>3887457paheal, bruh
>>3887488Octopath is meant to be played by avoiding any and all random encounters until you've been to every town and annoyed people into giving you level 60 equipment while you're still at level 4.
>>3886984>It's a 1:1 port of the free game for cellphone, all dialogues, lines and scene were exactly the sameMorbidly curious, I did install the mobile version. I had absurdly lucky timing and pulls but what I got in just 15 minutes of engaging with free pulls are up to date damage characters that also got showered with enough leveling items and gear to obliterate probably the entire story campaign. Moreover, I don't even have to play it! I just have to hit auto and in 2 turns it's cooked. In OT0 I actually had to engage with the game system, understand what my characters do and manually put up buffs and debuffs (this was the fight I first got a couple 9999 hits in). It's just not... a video game. You pull the gacha and then you have it play itself. The real progression curve in it is in the endgame, not in the story campaign, and it boils down to pull fresh unit to make the number go up. That's not fun at all, regardless of how you feel about the quality of the storyline.Perhaps anons might find it interesting but the maps in the mobile version actually feature a lot more elite enemies scattered on the road for you to fight. In OT0, almost all of them got cut, which even resulted in some enemy types straight up being absent from the game. However, as a game experience, OT0 far exceeds playing the mobile version and it's not even a competition. It's just a completely different product.
