This was my personal game of the year. The stories are so rich and realized and the scoring is utterly amazing. There were so many times I found myself shaking my head and smiling, and just going wow, this game is incredible. Now, I’ve yet to dive into baldur’s gate 3, but none of the rpg of the year noms hold a candle to this game imo. Sea of Stars felt small and silly by comparison (I actually loved the messenger and was quite disappointed). The only rpg that comes close imo is Star Ocean 2, and I’ve yet to complete it again. It’s one of my all time favorites and will always hold a special place in my heart, as Octopath Traveller 2 now does.
