Octopath Traveler 2 review - a familiar road - Metro

A competent and entertaining faux-retro Japanese role-player but apart from the new characters almost nothing has changed since the first one.

Reviews like this annoy me. Just because it's more of the same doesn't mean it's bad. More of a good game is nothing to sneeze at. Demanding they reinvent the wheel for you every iteration especially on the second outing is not that constructive imo

Metro is garbage and this is more proof of it. They gave pokemon scarlet and violet an 8, so calling something like this more of the same, and on its second game is hypocrisy full throttle.
