While they aren't entirely successful due to a disjointed story, there is a certain charm in Octopath Traveller that will speak to many longtime RPG fans. Octopath Traveller attempts to recapture the magic of games like Chrono Trigger with retro graphics, a cute story, and time-based combat systems. In many ways, JRPG games have lost the popularity that they once held with American gamers. Eight characters, eight stories this is Octopath Traveller. It doesn't matter why they're working together, only that you're willing to help them succeed at the tasks that drive them. Each one has its own skills, personality, and goals, but they've come together somehow. If you do a good job training your little buddy, they can easily mow through just about anything thrown at them, including teams of other Pokémon, along with learning fierce new moves for battle.Įight very different people come together for an epic quest across the world. They react to the things you do and are seriously powerful beasties in adorable pastel colors. When you are playing Let's Go, Pikachu! and Eevee!, your sidekicks have their own strengths and personality to aid you in your travels. Unlike previous games, it's very clear that you aren't alone in this journey from the onset. When you chain together a combo of captures, you can also get rarer pokemon to spawn or snag candies that will help you boost the stats of the Pokémon you already own. This means you can avoid the pokemon you don't want to capture or trigger bonuses by capturing several of the same species in a row. You also don't ever have to wonder whether a certain type of Pokémon is nearby since to capture them, you'll trigger the combat by walking into them on screen. Since Kanto was the first region many Pokémon players ever experienced, this game is a nostalgia trip that will appeal to old fans and new alike.Ĭatching Pokémon in these games is similar to that of Pokémon Go.
Returning to the Kanto region to capture Pokemon has never been as much fun as it is with Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! and Eevee! Finally, we get a bigger screen filled with green grass or rock paths filled with various Pokemon just waiting for you to capture them. No matter what you love about RPGs, Fire Emblem: Three Houses will deliver. Between fights, you'll have conversations with various characters that will build your relationships and change the story. Much of the game is driven by intense tactical combats where you'll need to position your forces on a grid with a keen awareness of the strengths and weaknesses of the classes you're fielding. If that's not enough, there's also an Expansion Pass that adds on costumes and a fourth house. If you want to get to know all the characters and experience the multiple endings, you're going to have to complete the game multiple times, and a single playthrough can take 80 hours.
This is a massive game, and the story changes based on which of the three houses you join and what choices you make.
You'll play as a mercenary recruited to teach in an academy for military officers, guiding a class of students in battle to try to keep the peace between three kingdoms.
However, it features a new setting, characters, and plot, so you don't have to worry about playing any previous games.
