OCTOPATH TRAVELER 0 REVIEWS
Noisypixel (100/100)
Regardless of its genre transformation, Octopath Traveler 0 is hands-down one of the best RPGs ever made. Its storytelling, characterizations, soundtrack, and densely interconnected gameplay loop are masterclass, even if it takes more than a little while for everything to click. Honestly, Square's HD-2D output has been exceptional, and I'm eager to see where these efforts continue to grow.
CGMagazine (8/10)
Octopath Traveller 0 masterfully transforms the once mobile game into a fully fleshed JRPG romp that feels as feature-rich and engaging as the prior console and PC releases.
Destructoid (85/100)
We travel back to the continent of Orsterra in Octopath Traveler 0, but the franchise doesn't just return to its old ways and slap a new number on it. 0 is full of new features, companions, and collectibles to find, making for a gameplay experience that truly pushes the series in a new and exciting direction—and it's all done against a gorgeous backdrop that will have you hooked for hours to come.
Gamespot (8/10)
This is how it feels to play Octopath Traveler 0: a seemingly endless pattern of ever-deeper combat challenges and strategic wrinkles, slowly revealing themselves to you over and over through dozens of hours. I've seen credits, in a sense, but there's still so much more to do and explore. It feels like a game that could go on forever. I just might let it.
You downloaded it?
I'm waiting on slow ass delivery.
How's Miles Mackenzie.
He is not as annoying as I thought he would be. That first boss in Fury Green was freaking good.
Are you playing at 120fps?
No, looks like I need to change a setting on my tv.
I'd likely prefer 4K/60, though.
The EG review mentions that graphics get a boost at 60fps, so that's how I'll be playing as well, whenever I get around to buying MP4. 120fps is nice, but I don't think it's neccessairy for a Metroid Prime game.
I find the rumour that the game was split into MP4 and MP5 because Retro was too ambitious to be hard to believe. Would Nintendo really risk developing both games simultaneously in a franchise that was never a top seller and has been dormant for nearly 2 decades? If so I highly anticipate F-zero GY and GZ, to release in 2027 and 2029.
Have you tried mouse mode or HDR on vs off?You can play 120fps portably.
They've kept making Metroid games though and have left Fzero to die since GX.I think its more likely that the pitch from Retro was too ambitious and Nintendo told them to scale it back. And then to work excess stuff into a future game.
So maybe Prime 4 was in active production while a smaller team was simultaneosly doing pre-production on Prime 5, story, art, engine testing?
Gg, i had no time to check out any of that stuff because it was early in the morning before work. Now I'm tired and a little cranky.
It will be another eight hours before I can get to the game again though,
Regarding the Prime 5 rumors, we have heard this before, at least a year ago. It was rumored to be a much more vertical game.
This Nash Weedle fellow is Spanish and seems to have an informant in the Metroid Dread side of things, Spanish studio I believe. He's hit and miss in the past but more right recently.
Its almost 6pm and Prime 4 still hasnt come. Its been this way for a couple of years now.
Whats the point of next day delivery or prime when nothing shows up till 7:30pm?
By the time a game arrives Im so tired or pissed of I dont even want to start playing a new game.
I need to shower and eat and other stuff.
