One of the ways I like to describe Octopath traveler is like "the best homemade Pizza Otto Stagioni you ever eat".
Also translated as "Eight seasons Pizza", it's basically a meal that is prepared in eight sections, each with diverse ingredients, with each section having a different "tone" or vibe. As a whole the pizza may feel too segmented, and for many this taste may not be their cup of tea, since the section with tomatoes can't be enjoyed with the section with cheese. But despite all of this, the way the pizza is presented, it's cooked and accompanied is able to generate some of the most positive emotions you ever had while eating.
Each "slice" of this game has a unique and different taste, that feels both like a celebration and an evolution of the classic formula it takes inspiration from. 8 stories, 8 protagonists, each of them with their own path, able to cross together in this adventure filled with an even more stunning HD2D artstyle, an incredible voice acting performance, an addicting but esurprisingly deep gameplay and job mechanic, and ONE OF THE BEST SOUNDTRACK EVER COMPOSED FOR A GAME.
MAN, YASUNORI NISHIKI IS A GOD.
One of the most overlooked games from 2023. A must play for every fan of the genre.
