Octopath can be a bit... boring. Running through 5 chapters for 8 characters each and not really having an over arching storyline to drive you forward can be a bit of a slog. I've played Octopath and I am Setsuna and although the story line for I am Setsuna is a bit like Final Fantasy X, I found it far more engaging and played it to completion where as I've practically abandoned Octopath. If it's a choice between the two I'd actually suggest Setsuna.I guess I'll try Octopath first. Its been a while since I played a 2D RPG. Though its not totally 2D.
