Damn square rly went in and sponsored a bunch of these gaming tubers. Cool! Octopath is an incredible franchise that deserves the attention!
Really hope this series continues!
I feel like there aren’t enough Octopath 2 play throughs to watch, and it’s such an incredibly well written game
The repeated song is called "Determination." and if you search youtube for "Determination, octopath, break" You'll find a stupidly good rendition of it from the Break and Boost remix album.
Just to chime in: Determination is the title of this tune in Octopath 1. There’s a new arrangement for this tune in the soundtrack for this game called “Unshakable Resolve”. I got goosebumps when it played for the first time in this game after recognizing the melody.
Hard agree on the Break arrangement though 👍🏼 that whole album is fantastic
I know this was a sponsored video, but please play more! It’s such a great game and you’re reactions are so genuine
Dearest Sarah, PLEASE continue being your open, wholesome self!
I’m so glad you got to play this game Sarah! I’m working on each character and advancing through the stories (kind of on chapter 3s mainly for characters atm) and it’s one of my new favorites. I’d be super happy to see more of your octopath journey if you decide to share it here on UA-cam as well!
Beat the game (66 hours for me) and it’s incredible.
I played Throné's Chapter 1 in the demo after this stream. This game is perfect 😫😭
Every few mins, the scenary and music gives me chills, and I stop playing for a sec just to think about it
Was not expecting you to edit a video down! I was honestly surprised joining your stream and seeing you play this. Hope you're having a wonderful time 💙
Ochette is voiced by Yuffie :O and Juvah by Sojiro Sakura (i think? he sounds JUST like him 0-0)
Definitely one of the best turn base rpgs in a while, great music, combat, and story.
Imagine Kingdom Hearts remade in this art style though. This game is so beautiful and i’m glad Square sponsored you to play this so more people, like me, who may not have heard about the game, can discover its brilliance. Hope you are well and thank you for being here. Always so glad to vibe to your videos/personality 🌸
A Chain of Memories in this style would end me omg 😭
LETSSS GOOOO been waiting for this. After final fantasy moved away from turned based jrpg system only Octopath Traveller probably made me feel the same fantasical feeling that franchise did lol anyway gonna watch it now instead of sleeping
Octopath & Bravely Default are the best
Too bad, they didn't make a demo of final fantasy 7 remake in this style.
I made a system for my company and named it "Hikari", named after the Kingdom Hearts theme "Simple and Clean" in Japanese. I named it that because it was an iteration of something else I work on that has become complicated and hard to work with, Hikari was much more steamlined. So my first pick was pretty obvious.
I hope that you made this a series, I'll be looking forward to that!
Hikari’s opening chapter is hands down the best writing that the Octopath series has offered. Genuinely blew me away and as long as his following chapters are even half as good I’d be satisfied. I’d be so down to see more Octopath Traveler 2
octopath 2 was one of my most anticipated games this year, and it's really living up to that! glad they did sponsorships to get more eyes on it, totally deserved!!
This game is SO pretty! I’m so excited to watch you play more!
The soundtrack of this game has been my obsession since the game released. I even spent an entire weekend making the soundtrack compatible with the KH2 music rando so I could listen to it there
If you are looking for a great turn-based RPG that scratch that itch, this game and Chained Echoes are the ones you are looking for!
This game is so fucking fun. Ochette’s story was also unexpectedly exciting and gripping.
Hikari's cast is sooo good they could support his own game
I’d love to see your full playthrough of this if it’s been recorded somewhere
This was a great video, Sarah! Congratulations on the sponsorship, you were as awesome and wholesome as you always are!
you should post the rest of the gameplay here too.. im glad u pick / sponsored by OT2.. by any chance, if u finish OT2, i hope u play the first series too.. the story is as good as the second
Title couldn't be anymore accurate, love this game! 🔥
I'm very late, but I agree with your last line - if it's as good as the first Octopath, it'll be a great set of stories. I hope you enjoyed it
It has improve a lot of details and aspects from the first one, but you should absolutely 100% play the first octopath if you like this one, it's that good
while ohcette wasn't my protagonsit (that would be castti whos my fave) ochette was the first person i recruited for my party and i was SO HAPPY WITH MY CHOICE. She's great, her ability is fun and unique and, most all, i think she has one ofthe best openings in terms of like theatrics, seeing ehr chasing the monster before a seamless transition into her tutorial fight.
so yeah I support picking her c:
(my four faves are castti, ochette, hikari and partitio, in that order)
I'm already at level 40 and I still halfway from finishing this game. I'm also a newcomer to JRPG's thanks to the masterpiece that is Persona 5
Congrats on the sponsor! Happy to see you enjoy the game :)
omg!!! yes!! im not fans of twitch but im really happy when u upload ur vod on youtube i watch the Xenoblade 3 to!! hope u able to finish this amazing games!!!!
Please continue this!!
When you're finished with this. Please check Chained echoes. One of the best jrpg of 2022
I hope you'll continue playing this game - it's fantastic!
Welp, looks like I know what part of my next paycheck is going to. Mama needs adorable melodrama.
I had no idea they were standalone, so now I think I'm gonna start with OT2 o:
physical sales for the first week are rather underwhelming we have to hope a lot more sales were digital instead
Well, yeah. The vast majority of Octopath 2 players are on PC. It's not exclusive to Switch for about a year or anything
now I what see Sarah play bravely default
Me after seeing King Jigu: "Oh dang, it's the Fire Lord!"
god everytime I see the water, my eyes... water
(relax guys, I meant in a good way haha)
JRPG? Nothing beats Suikoden 1+2 (:
I can't she has Yuffie voice actor!
Man I rlly need to finish the first game, I played it a lot and loved it but just stopped at one point. Rlly pumped for this game too tho!
Also as soon as I get my switch repaired I'm continuing triangle strategy, I adore that game but I was forced to make a choice I don't have the strength to make because the concequences of your choices are fucking gutwrenching in this game so I stopped...
Speaking of JRPG's
Did you play world of final fantasy?
If not i highly recommend it
Is basically FF kingdom heart
And it's a love letter to the series
Im glad I chose Mahina
I'd love for a pokemon game to look like this 😅 this game is beautiful
Juvah giving me Aslan vibes ✨
lion dad sounds identical to coffee dad from persona 5
Wait… you’re right!
Yo sarah hope ur having a great day :)
I am! Hope you are too
I never heard of this Game
The first is great as well. Just misunderstood.
Octopath is great
Based
you should try out the Japanese VA, Ochette is especially good

It SHOULD HAVE won best soundtrack. Stupid, idiotic, lame cowboy game Red Dead Redemption won over it. An absolute steal and travesty. I will NEVER forgive that game for it.
Agreed! That or Xenoblade 2 (still a travesty XC2 didn’t even get nominated that year)
Oh gosh that’s what it was ;-;
@@SarahKey an absolute, unabashed HIGWAY ROBBERY. I’ll be mad about it until the day I die….
❤❤❤❤
Play IT TAKES TWO
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Hi
Hello!!!
Sarah, are you planning to play Hogwarts legacy at some point?? or are you part of the failed boycott?
It lost best soundtrack to “I’m a Cowboy” which is just as bad as KH3 and XC3 also losing during their years…
