1H1D #82: Octopath Traveler
Episode description
Pick one of the eight starting characters and then start traveling.
In this role-playing game developed by Square Enix and Acquire, the first choice you must make is which story you'd like to hear. With eight different characters to choose, what are the odds that both our hosts pick the same one? Don't worry, that's a rhetorical question, we don't need you to figure out the percentage. With the "HD-2D" twist on classic sprite-based RPGs of yesteryear, this title walks the line of something that feels retro but modern at the same time. Will this approach tickle the nostalgia centers of our hosts' brains enough to get them invested quickly? With just one hour to capture their hearts and minds, RPGs tend to be at a disadvantage on this podcast... how will this one fair when stacked up against the rest? Well, our hosts have each played their prescribed hour and now it's time for them to sit down to discuss and come to a decision. Join them, won't you?
