Absolutely loved this game. Entirely worth the full price - a no brainer at $25

Great game. I liked every part of it, including the assorted secrets/secret ending, except for the "final battle". There's a massive genre shift to a bullet time shooter that you have to win. Popular complaint - if you don't win, you can literally end up fighting for an hour. If you do the secret ending, you have to do it a second time, but code there allows you to fail and it makes it easier.

Consider it a Chrono Trigger-esque game if you're looking for a similar one.

I have a game of octo that I stopped playing, whereas I'm playing New Game + in Sea of Stars, if that tells you anything. Octopath was a little bit grind-y. I may return to it someday, but haven't felt the motivation. Also... free Sea of Stars DLC coming soon

This is a great game, and a love letter to classic greats like Chrono Trigger. Highly recommend if games like that are your jam.

I heard great things about this game but found it to be a little lackluster when I got around to it.

Really different games.

Octopath is 8 short stories that happen to connect. SaGa Frontier was the same (and, IMO, done better).

I'd say Sea of Stars plays easier, although the story in Octopath is far better. Sea of Stars story is, sorry to say, not great. It drives the game but it's not really good. Both main characters are painful cliches and so is almost anyone you interact with. It is a fun play though, and has so many way to configure it to be enjoyable to play that certainly the better game.

Right now, if you made me replay one or the other though, I'd pick Octopath. Sea of Stars, especially if you do the secret ending, makes you not want to deal with the redo. It had the bad fortune to come out the same year as BG3 and TotK so it didn't get as much press, but its fans were pulling for it to be GotY. As much as I really liked Octopath's graphics, Sea was more fun to look at.

Very derivative of Chrono Trigger, but I could think of a lot worse games to be similar to. Very fun game.

Apples and oranges. They're very different. This plays more like Super Mario RPG. Where you can press a button to keep your attacks going. That being said, I felt more enjoyment with this. I never found it boring, like I did with Octopath. I never beat either Octopath game, but I'm planning on playing this again and getting the platinum trophy (I'm on PlayStation).

The lowest was 23 for digital/24 for physical in the past. So, I would say 24 for a physical copy is better, especially with DLC content coming.

Octopath has been on my list to play, but haven't made it around yet.

I do agree with you about the story behind SoS being a little lackluster - particularly (as you mentioned) the main characters. It's not bad - just, a little one dimensional.

Visually, it's a dang feast. I grew up in the heyday of JRPGs like FFVI, ChronoTrigger, Secret of Mana, etc - and this game REALLY hit a lot of nostalgic high points.

I have played both. I liked both. Octopath Traveler was better for me for the very in depth battle system. Octopath Traveler does play like FFVI which is one of my top favorite games ever. Story wise OT not as great as the old Final Fantasy games. Battle wise it's far superior and so many epic battles. I beat the game but never mastered the battle system or completed the game as it would have been at least double the time I spent.
Sea of Stars is more like Chrono Trigger battle wise and was a fun revisit especially since it was an indie game. I only made it about 10 hours in and then life came up.
