Gaming Octopath Traveler: Who did you start with?

[Sonic Angel Knight]

Is just a simple question. I dunno how many people here have the game, maybe not a lot but enough to have threads about save editors. So I'm just curious who each person picked when playing the game first time. (Not including any restarts or the last year beta)

You can just vote in the poll or leave a description why, like what appealed to you or stuff .

Tressa, as read a review somewhere that stated her story was the most interesting.

I'm upset you didn't order the poll properly. Alphabetical is great but the names spell out Octopath ;_; But yeah Ophilia. Starting from the top and going in order. That and I do enjoy healers.

I went with H'aanit I guess because she looked nice and uses bows, no solid reason really, but was also considering Cyrus because he sounded interesting.

I knew that, but you try doing that and figure out which 4 characters with T or O in their name goes where if not alphabetical.

Ophilia, Cyrus, Tressa, Olberic, Primrose, Alfyn, Therion, H'aanit.
It's the order used in official promos, and it's also the characters ordered as they appear on the map clockwise starting at the top, so I'd assume that order is correct lol

I started with Tressa. The more money I can get the better. I’m awful with managing money in games.

I never noticed that. That is pretty nifty!

But is it really? Ophilia, Olberic, Tressa, Therion?
Why not

• Olberic
• Cyrus
• Therion
• Ophilia
• Primrose
• Alfyn
• Therion
• H'aanit

It still spells OCTOPATH and it's ALPHABETICAL.
