Ikr
Her path action is pretty good though. Gonna miss all those villagers helping me. Maybe I'll replace her with Primrose after all.
What team are you guys planning on setting up as the main team?
I'm planning on Olberic, Therion. Ophilia and Cyrus
Say that to my Ophilia who has nearly double the SP that Cyrus has and nearly the same HP as Olberic, can heal the party, revive all allies and summon help.
From what people have said, gear has more of an effect on stats than level.Same thing happened to me. Entered a level 20 cave at level 11 and they were doing a ton of damage.
Who started with who?
I started with Ophila in the demo and transferred my data into the full game. Only 2 hours in and I'm thinkin bout switching (pun not intended) to another protag to start with.
My Alfyn has more HP than Olberic, can heal everything and everyone, replenish SP, and rez morons, simply by using cheap items and his brain.Say that to my Ophilia who has nearly double the SP that Cyrus has and nearly the same HP as Olberic, can heal the party, revive all allies and summon help.
Ophilia is surprisingly one of my favourites in battle
Tried both , I had Waaaaaay more fun in XC2I'm still not decided about buying this game. Especially if the 8 storylines never get together, that would turn me off.
Can anyone compare this game to XC2? If you only had time to play one, which would you pick?

Finally got hold of a copy of the game. But what's up with this game? Every store I checked was sold out. Did this game got seriously undershipped to Europe or something?
Anyway, can't wait to sink my teeth in this game.
You can purchase/steal an accessory from Tressa's mother in Rippletide, it recovers 6 SP after every action. Costs about 17k and probably has a low chance to steal but it's really useful.
Played another three hours today and got all eight characters. This game is really, really good. I think I'm going to level all of them up to at least 20 and get better equipment and then do Chapter 2. BTW, what's a good solution to ensure Cyrus doesn't run out of SP as often as he does now? I don't like skipping character turns to use plums on him and Ophilia doesn't have any SP spells.
Same here in the Netherlands. I mean, I get the popularity on places like ResetERA, but to think that a game like this canb sell out is just weird to me. It's very cool of course, but weird.Seems to be extremely popular, at least seems to be here in Ireland. Guys in GameStop told me it's been a big hit and even everyone who worked there loved it too.

I switch party all the time and I found that Therion / Thief is a good partner. He's naturally fast so usually moves before Cyrus. Just learn Give / Steal SP and alternate.

I love the message the shortage sends out. Would love to have more games like this hehe :)If you go on twitter right now there are people complaining about the game being in short supply everywhere. Germany, UK, Australia, it's going crazy.
The Japanese Octopath Traveler account also just posted a message apologising for the shortages in Japan.
The thirst is real.
Through Scrutinzing you usually find hidden items, important information you need to complete quests, discounts at the inn, bonuses to stealing, alluring, trading ect. Plus sometimes just some cool info tooIs it actually worth scrutinizing everybody? what do you really gain? I see some hidden item here and there but that's about it.
Also should i be challenging everybody?
And lastly, is the side quest meant to be this vague, or are there any hints that i'm missing.
That make sense! Thanks!Through Scrutinzing you usually find hidden items, important information you need to complete quests, discounts at the inn, bonuses to stealing, alluring, trading ect. Plus sometimes just some cool info too
Through Scrutinzing in Rippletide I got the Haggle bonus for example, which has saved me thousands when buying stuff with Tressa

Challenge and Provoke are definitely the least useful, they are only really useful for completing quests where someone needs to get knocked out because they are harassing someone or something like that, or for when someone is blocking a door and you want to get past.That make sense! Thanks!
I'm still curious if I should be knocking out everybody in the town... and I'm kind of having trouble completing most of the side quest.
I think I will proceed with the story first, now going to my 5th chapter 1, such a charming, fantastic game.

Oh shit that's really cool.I think scrutinize is mostly for some extra flavor. If you don't care about talking to absolutely everyone then it probably won't make a difference to you.
Though it does provide some fun extra details. I saw an example on reddit where the scrutinize description mentions that an old lady is a widow who holds on to her fisherman husband's spear as a memento... a spear that you can steal from her with Therion, lol.
Started as Olberic and dude is a fucking tank. At like 1000hp already at level 14 and enemies don't seem to damage him much. Gear really makes the characters.Who started with who?
