The first time I saw Octopath Traveler it was presented then as Project Octopath Traveler.during the original Nintendo Switch presentation in January of 2017. It struck me immediately because of its art style and it was a RPG. I’ve had the game in cite, and although I downloaded both the demos released before the game dropped, I didn’t play much of them before I picked it up about a week after its release in July of 2018. At the time, the games press was talking over Octopath, calling it an amazing game, and highlighting all of its wonderful qualities, . But, for the most part, many outlets glossed over a lot of the glaring issues with the game which don’t show themselves until the player has spent ample time with the game.At the beginning of the game the player is tasked with choosing one of eight starting characters. Each one represents a different class, but each character is firmly that character. There is no character creation in this game. The reason for that, I’m guessing is that every character has their own individual story arch. I chose the hunter character, H’aanit. was that a rough introduction to the writing of this game. The characters in her town all speak a sort of English. The writing for this specific portion of the game is terrible. Her entire story is unbearable because of the characters writing. Thankfully, her story arch is the only one that is written with that half-baked dialect.

Playing Red Dead Redemption II for the first time was a fun because it brought back memories from when i played the first on The game starts off with Arthur, the main character, and his crew holed up in the snowy mountains on the run from their last heist gone wrong. The opening missions are slow and tedious. RDD2 is a slow, methodical, and most times breathtaking game, and the opening missions are so slow. The snow looks gorgeous and the people and are cruel. There are about five missions Arthur has to finish before the player can get down off the mountain, and it takes about three hours to finish the prologue and open the game up. It plays out like a three hour tease.You know when you get off the mountain there will be a beautiful and open Rockstar created world to explore, but you have to run five missions first that include hunting, finding a lost gang member, exploring a nearby house for provisions, and getting in a fight with a local gang. The missions themselves aren’t a bad time. Searching for the lost gang member reveals a pleasant surprise, and when you explore the nearby house for things don’t go according to plan. Exploring outside the camp after the missions isn’t recommended at this point. You won’t get very far in the harsh weather conditions.So you will need to loot every body you kill.So you can get money. www.ign.com/games/red-dead-redemption-2
