While I'm working on getting the next performance video ready, I figured it might be nice to get some of my old posts that I liked posted back up, so here's the first in my Gushing About The Octopath Traveler OST series:
[Pt. 1] Main Theme
Octopath Traveler is, simply put, the soundtrack we thought we heard in the pixel art era: Melody-driven pieces, mimicking pieces of that era by having, at most, 3 or 4 distinct musical lines playing at once, played by an orchestra. This creates tight tracks that are memorable and individually distinct. For starters, here’s the main theme.
A productive night on #OctopathTraveler 2! Finished a couple chapters, did some road tripping between towns (aka grinding), leveled up weapons and secondary job classes! Ready for another Ochette chapter!
After the weekend off, I’m back on my Octopath Traveler 2 bullshit. This time, a new focused approach. Going to do just the 4 characters, finish their stories, then do the other 4. Less to manage, less disjointed, more focused.
I want to give the #JRPG genre a try. I have been thinking about this for more than a year and I eventually settled on #OctopathTraveler as the perfect JRPG (probably). And now there is that second dilemma: Should I play the first one or skip to the second one? The Internet claims the games are unrelated and the second one is simply better.
