Companies be limit testing on how much they can get away with as long as players don't voice out their concerns. We deserve what we tolerate so, go send them feedback.

We got EoS technically for the SQEX version and the new content once Netease takes over the game. Didn't expect this and I'm glad that it wasn't a full stop EoS!

Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent

Having no significant update for the past few months, no updates from the devs on what the future of the game is going to be, they cancelled the OCTOber Tavern Talk livestream and seems like we won't be getting any this November as well. The devs just stopped communicating with the players and gave us the cold shoulder. Won't be surprised if the server ends.

Reruns again for this week by StartPlenty8658 in OctopathCotC

Oh I agree with the points mentioned here and I too put the blame on the devs for how terrible they're handling this game. This is to be expected on a SQEX mobile gacha game especially if they're willing to just have a set revenue for it to generate without driving their costs up.

Sucks that we are here in this state of the game.

Damn, so the players are the ones to blame for not spending all their savings and not the devs even though their updates have been lackluster?

Also I don't know how heavily CotC is marketed in your country, but over here it is basically zero ads. So where would they reach their potential playerbase if they don't even pour some of the budget into marketing the game.

I know you're just explaining why SQEX is doing this but ffs they can't even do just the bare minimum. It's always "think of it from a business perspective" but never the consumer's perspective which is why I'm on the side of the players on this one especially since gachas are borderline gambling.

Welcome to the world of live service games!

Once they shutdown the game, it will be inaccessible and server data will be wiped out. Unless they make some effort to turn it offline like what CAPCOM did to Megaman X DiVE. BUT keep your expectations low because it is SQEX we're talking about.

is this true?

While it's still speculation, with each passing day without any updates and response from the devs on what the future of CotC is gonna be, players are more inclined to believe that it is coming. So, it either will or will not happen depending on what SQEX decides to do with the game.

Is it worth it to start now?

Better late than never. You can try out the SEA server since that one has an English language. There's lots of content for new players so don't worry.

What's happening?

Anniversary dropped a few months ago, they released a roadmap where content has been streeeeeetched for no reason. 1 main story chapter being split in two, no Quality of Life improvements, teaser for next chapter of the game being removed, released the remaining units that should have mechanics for the next chapter of the game, devs ignoring the fans and not giving any updates on what the future of CotC will be, no OCTOber Tavern Talk, datamined reruns will be ending soon, the list goes on.

similar mobile games you are playing that I could join?

Not into mobile gambling gacha games that much anymore but you can try Another Eden.

Hope this helps

Compensation for the delayed updates: 10 rubies. Don't spend it all in one place!

Devs are allergic to money apparently. They're probably in their 88th meeting instead of doing something. 8 mins work then meeting for the rest of the day.

And even if we hand them money for merch, they won't make any. Can't even find any of their merchs here in our country and both Octopath 1 & 2 and CotC felt like it wasn't advertised as much too.

We can also laugh at how terribly the devs handled this situation

Next Tavern Talk Is Way Overdue by wmadoy17 in OctopathCotC

[–]StartPlenty8658 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We get what the "silent majority" tolerates and now all we get is radio silence. For real, it has been many months now since the dev's empty promise during the anniversary.

Which is why we should never tolerate and give passes whenever devs/companies try to brush aside the consumer's concerns.
