With the exception of dancers, the characters wear pragmatic clothes in earth tones. The character designs are whimsical and effectively tap into the nostalgia many players feel for the 16-bit JRPGs of the 90s, but they aren’t exactly hot or flashy. I was also worried about how well Octopath art style would adapt to a mobile game. I was prepared for Masters to exacerbate the original problem. After years of playing games on mobile, I have an enormous amount of patience, but even I remember feeling that Octopath Traveler was an inflated time sink. Many gamers who are used to premium console titles often find mobile too frustrating to bear. So I was a little nervous when I found out Masters was a mobile game. The party of adventurers can also accumulate points in each of these attributes, which affect NPC recruitment and resource gathering.Ĭritics generally praised the first Octopath the game’s art style, combat and music, but some found the progression to be grating and the story to be uninteresting. Each main quest line revolves around toppling a tyrant who exemplifies one of these traits. While there are side quests centered around each of the characters, the main campaign focuses on three themes: wealth, fame, and power.
It’s an interesting take on the first game’s narrative system, where eight characters happened to come together for reasons even more weighty. While the main characters in Octopath appears in some side quests, the narrative centers around a group of merry adventurers who are united by the sacred ring worn by the first “chosen”, your first player character (who is randomized through the gacha). Located on the same continent Orsterra, Masters is a prequel, taking place an unspecified time period before Octopath. In 2018, Square Enix released the original Octopath Traveler on Nintendo Switch. Octopath is even better on mobile than it ever was on Nintendo Switch. Masters retains the visuals and music as created Octopath a unique title in a field of beautiful RPGs, and its Streamlined combat is a huge improvement over the original game. I was expecting a watered-down battle system and menu hell like many other mobile gacha games. Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent, recently available on mobile, is a worthy sequel to the original Switch RPG from 2018.
