I started my story as Temenos and then grabbed Osvald. There’s something really funny to me about poor Osvald waking up to Temenos who exudes such bastard energy after being thru so much bad luck

Finished Octopath 2 last month! This game is real gem!

I started with Osvald and didn't disappoint, everything is horrible (compliment) dude is so broken and meme-able (affectionate) Also I ship him with Castti fasdff and sometimes with Throné is nice~ But mostly Temenos and Throné interactions are so freaking cute. I love Hikari a lot too aaaa and Partitio too will draw everyone when I have more energy!

Erhardt and Olberic…The Twin Blades of Hornburg - the last knights of a lost realm, reunited again after all these years. It’s as though it were from a storybook! I’m crawling back to tumblr to post my Octopath and jrpg art. Olberhardt has been on my brain for the last while. I’m just so obsessed with their whole red gold/blue silver, left and right hand, friends to enemies etc., betrayal, revenge, redemption, reconciliation arc :’) It’s simply unreal?! I love them!

oct2path ships (so far)

We're about 1/2way through Oct2path... ships so far...

temenos/crick - fantastic. snappy dialogue. great chemistry. love that they are from the same storyline explicitly so they share a ton of story beats and are very engaged in the overarching What Is Happening With Temenos Right Now at all times (the biggest weakness of octopath shipping is that you usually don't get much of that!) Absolutely LOVE that the game provided a system for using the NPC chars a lot more and actually in-party... really huge brained of them

hikari/agnea - I liked alfyn/ophelia in the original for the same general reasons, hikari feels very bisexual to me (much like alfyn did) and sweet mostly uncomplicated good feelings het is an underappreciated flavor in my circles these days. lost my shit at their banter where hikari is like "dang u hot" without realizing he is being lewdish. also that one official art with hikari fan dancing with her makes me insane it's too cute. I feel like the text pushes this one similar to how it did prim & olberic but this time I agree that hikari is bi whereas olberic felt so gay to me it was impossible to suspend my disbelief.

partitio/hikari/agnea - need to see more partitio & hikari interactions to be sure but I like to ship people in piles now I guess. this is my ship least supported by the text so far but again only halfway through so hoping for more content in the 2nd half as the chapters get meatier.

throne/castti - hurt/comfort f/f all day long as far as the eye can see. I liked ophelia/prim for a lot of the same reasons, but this one has a distinctly different flavor, more tannins I think, delicious. both of these women have absolutely bonkers storylines (just finished both their ch3s) and they're the only 2 matching each other's extremely dire energy atm

I want to see more interactions with hikari and his npcs, hopeful that the upcoming chapter(s) will have that.

I think dolcinea & agnea also have chemistry and potential, let's see how that goes from here. love to ship protagonists with their villains.

also ship castti and melaya hugely... really good protag + NPCs relationships in this once again

I somehow forgot how hard octopath goes, these cute sprites + beautiful pixel environs sure do impart some jaw dropping events and dialogues at times. I appreciate it.

totk is out tomorrow so I wanted to word dump this all out before we start that... 2nd half of oct2path is gonna have to be interspersed with playing that, so it is gonna be slow going. but I'm looking forward to all the conclusions and also I hope there are multiple superbosses this time, the game is so fun but we do the chapters in order and are always completely overleveled at this point. very few of the bosses are even remotely challenging and it sucks because they clearly are well designed encounters, we are just outleveling them obnoxiously lol

I suspect this is gonna shake out a lot like the first game where I had preferences like the above but also happily shipped most everyone with most everyone else. I like octopath for that, it feels very freeing. just slamming a bunch of tropes together for a good time. nice.
