DISCUSSION
Octopath is a wonderful game but narratively it was one of the biggest disappointments in recent memory, to the point where I just stopped caring and stopped playing right before the final boss. Maybe I’ll pick it up again and try a different party since it’s coming here (nice surprise to me). Or I’ll finally get to play Nier. God I love Game Pass.
