A gaming sub free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Is it worth playing Octopath Traveler 1 before 2? (lemmy.ml)

I understand that the stories aren't connected, but I know some people have said that there are a few easter eggs here and there. That being said, is it worth spending the 60.5 hours (according to howlongtobeat.com) before jumping into OT2?

I don’t think it’s necessary to play them in order. If you’re itching to play Octopath 2, go for it. The games are very similar, so if you play them one after another it would probably start to feel repetitive.

Completely different stories.

There seems to be consesnsus that 2 improves over 1 in almost everyway, so you may find the experience going back to be a bit underwhelming, but otherwise there should be no issue.
