Unpopular opinion: Octopath 0 is my favourite

I am 100 hours in and I absolutely love this game. I have played 1 and 2, and will probably revisit, but this game has given me so much joy.

I absolutely adore the design component of Wishvale, I think it’s such a fun little “side quest” to make your town look however you’d like. I’m also a self admitted stardew snob so that may be why I love this aspect so much.

The silent protagonist does not bother me at all, I actually find it kind of cute and endearing that the other characters refer to my character by my chosen name. I understand there are opinions about the silent character, but personally I think it’s works in this game so well.

Honestly, out of all 3, this has been my most enjoyable and long winded play through so far, and I highly highly encourage others not to be discouraged and to continue playing. I’m so sad that I am almost finished the game and will definitely do another play through in a year or two.

Ok sorry rant over!
