DO NOT BUY Octopath Traveler II

After several hours, he found Octopath Traveler II’s retro visuals, blur effect, mismatched art, and absent equipment customization disappointing. He skipped frequent story cutscenes and found conventional turn-based combat repetitive, though bosses and character progression provided limited enjoyment. Despite some fun, he rejected the £50 price, comparing it to mobile or £5–£10 indie games; £20 is his maximum.

Grinding and numerical progression hold his attention, but perceived low value overrides the addictive hook.
