They saw it was called Acquire, and so they did.

Soulspath Travelborne is going to be one hell of a game.

Note that Acquire worked on Tenchu in the past.

How was octopath 2? I never heard any buzz about it after it released. Just as lackluster as the first?

[–] simple@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I really liked it actually, but I haven't played the first one to be able to compare them.

[–] Daveyborn@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

An improvement on the first in my opinion.

I didn't enjoy the first one, I am enjoying the second one a lot more. It's not perfect, but the stories are generally better and things feel more polished. It's still an old-school JRPG though.

Kadokawa seems like a good fit for them. Their track record is a little spotty but I think a lot of their games have a spark of something great.

Still need to get on Octopath 2.
