Finished Octopath Traveler finally on my 2nd playthrough. My switch originally completely died right before I finished it (grinding between finishing all the characters stories and doing the true end game) the first time through so it was nice to finally get the real ending. Didn't like it as much the second time through honestly, the story and whole progression of the game just don't do it for me, but the battles and gameplay are still choice. Please give me new Chrono in this engine with these systems and a touch of refinement NAO.
Started playing Edge of Eternity. Enjoying it so far, but I'm barely into the game. Lots of potential for the battle system here. Seems like it will end up relying a lot on elements and statuses and it has a very basic movement grid where positioning can matter at times. Interested in seeing how it develops as the challenge increases and I get access to more abilities and characters. Think of it kinda like turn based tactics-lite w/atb and you'll have a good idea.
Graphics are pretty in a xenoblade way. Very similar looking in fact with some wild environments at times. Can def tell its made by a small team though because some of the animations get a little jank at time, especially in the distance. Sound is surprisingly great so far. Can't really tell you much about the story quality yet because I don't know much, but from the opening it seems like it may be fairly cliche. We'll see if some plot twists develop to set it apart.
