This is the mobile game repurposed for consoles but they ensured the game remains loyal to Ocotopath. The grind is heavy, like in the other games, so be prepared for that. There's a lot of cutscenes, more than the other games. Mainly because this content was released over time with the mobile game. There's a lot of fantastic boss fights and stories here but be prepared for a long journey. This is a classic RPG game as its core. That means a lot of grinding for levels, job points, abilities, money, and gear.

Its great.
So far if you like previous games or just eastern rpgs in general its great. The story is interesting, the characters are fun. There is town building which is fun. Five hours in and i'm having a blast. Between this and the monster hunter stories its good to be a rpg fan. Cheers!

Fear not
Its mobile game roots do not at all make this unworthy to the series. Music, story, combat, all as wonderful as the other games. Though slightly different the core heart and soul is there. Definitely prioritize playing 1 or 2 first but this is fantastic. Love it.

Astonishing prequel that expands the lore of Orsterra
Please just buy this game already and experience it first-hand. Waiting for this to go on Game Pass? Do not wait, buy this now and enjoy the gameplay and narrative. I cannot emphasize enough that it is worth every cent at full price. Truly a work of modern art.
