is Octopath Traveler worth it? Heard the story is supposedly very "safe and dull"

@igeljaeger Depends on what gets you excited in an RPG I suppose. It has some unique aspects that are nice. I am very judgemental about games as I very rarely find one I enjoy enough to bother finishing. With that said It was no better or worse than most RPGs out there right now IMO.

@freemo I suppose I should finish Ys VIII instead then. The combat is really fun. Not sure about its story yet though

@igeljaeger If you enjoyed Ys you might enjoy octopath traveler. Game mechanics are similarly complex (too simple for my tastes). Combat was fairly enjoyable I think for an RPG.

@freemo Im a sucker for action rpgs in general and dont care much for story if the gameplay is fun. Turnbased is another story though... the less the gameplay keeps me occupied the better the story has to be to create a balance of interest that keeps me coming back

@igeljaeger If you just so happen to be in the netherlands you are most welcome to borrow my copy though.

@freemo haha I live in southern germany so thats quite a way. An irl friend of mine does actually own a copy, so I might borrow his and check out the game to see if it clicks
