Lighting effects make the world even more dreamlike. Individual grains of sand sparkle under the sun, and the snowy landscapes glimmer with life as light dances across individual snowflakes.
Perhaps the most gorgeous places are the deserts, beaches, and snow-capped mountain areas. Everything in the world feels alive with subtle movement: pixelated trees rustle in the breeze blades of 16-bit grass sway under a changing sky shadows from passing clouds blot out parts of the landscape as they float, out of sight, in the skies above. That lends it a delightful old-school charm while giving it a modern flavor. But there’s more to it than that: Character are 2D, but they move and explore in a 3D world painted with 16-bit textures, with the exception of realistic sand, snow, and water. At first blush, Octopath Traveler is a sprite-based game that looks like it’d be at home in a Super NES Final Fantasy. Instead, Octopath Traveler treated me to a stunning tilt-shifted art style and a deep battle system that made every encounter an exercise in thoughtful strategizing. Going in, I’d expected little more than a charming but run-of-the-mill homage to the 16-bit RPGs I grew up playing. This, in spite of the fact I’d played 53 hours on my journey to complete the path of Therion, the thief whose story I’d chosen at the beginning.
