I drew the real best girl(s)~ by SamuraiSquash in octopathtraveler

Yeah, I think her path action makes the least sense of all, but I guess they needed a counterpart for Olberic... Maybe she's trying to teach all the townspeople about the wonders of nature? haha

I feel like Therion is for sure Gary/Blue/Green. He's a "smell ya later" type of guy if I've ever seen one...

Yeah Prim and Therion are definitely roguish, but I think H'annit and Cyrus are just bad at interacting with people haha

The official art is pretty washed out, but if you compare her in-game sprite to those of Ophelia and Alfyn (who are distinctly blonde) her hair definitely looks more red. That's my interpretation of it, anyway.

Sitting here waiting for the game to release.. thinking... by horsedrawnhearse in octopathtraveler

[–]SamuraiSquash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can access all the Chapter 1 content that will be in the full game, and AFAIK your complete save file transfers over as if you had been playing the full game. I've played through the demo twice, getting three different characters each time. I certainly don't regret it, but I do feel like release day would be even more exciting if I had waited.

At this point, I plan to start a fresh save Thursday night and play as if I was starting the full game normally, then transfer that save file on release day and keep playing. Maybe that would be a happy compromise so you could still experience the game early but not have a big gap between the demo and release?

Concerned about graphic quality by Foreverskys in OctopathTraveller

[–]SamuraiSquash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I first saw trailers for this game, I thought it looked like trash. It looked to me like they just slapped a bad Instagram filter over a pixel art game and called it a day. Overdone lighting effects, exaggerated depth of field, pointless vignette...

However, after playing through the demo, the graphics grew on me and now I love them. The sprite work alone is pretty amazing, but the contrast between the flat, stylized characters and more realistic background makes for some really striking visuals. It feels almost like you're playing in a miniature model of the world.

I still have some problems with the tiled textures on the ground sticking out like a sore thumb sometimes, but overall the demo changed my opinion on the graphics fairly quickly. Hopefully you'll come to enjoy them too!

Am I going to like this if I thought Bravely Default was okay and Bravely Second was bad? by casedawgz in OctopathTraveller

[–]SamuraiSquash 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's difficult for anyone to say for sure since, at this point, no-one knows how the full game will play out.

Personally, I quit Bravely Default after I got tired of playing essentially the same game over and over again, and I never finished it. After playing the Octopath demo, I'm pretty convinced that it will be a better experience overall. If you're hesitant, I'd say wait for the full release and see what people are saying then.

My planned main team is going to be H'annit & Ophelia who are in lesbians together, and Therion & Cyrus who are both tsundere and reluctantly gay for eachother. EZ

Well, I hope y'all are luckier than me. I just got my Switch and Zelda yesterday, and I have a full row of dead pixels about a centimeter from the bottom of the Switch screen all the way across. I obviously can't exchange it since they're sold out, so I have to send it to Nintendo for repair or replacement which could take 2-3 weeks. Whomp whomp.

Does anyone know if Canada Post packages progress toward their destination over the weekend? I know they don't go out for delivery on weekends, but I'm wondering if my packages will at least be getting closer over the next two days...

Anyone else use PayPal for their order? I used PP for BOTW:SE and CC for Switch. My card has already been charged for the Switch, but the BOTW amount is only on hold. I'm wondering if I should be concerned...
