you have to be careful reading too many things that are good/smart/well-written bc then you encounter something that isnt and you get confused like ? why didnt they just make this good ? were they stupid

SPOILERS FOR OCTOPATH TRAVELER 2

bon voyage, chief

(Beyond this point, I will be gushing about this moment in the game, so if you have seen this painting and don't really get the context behind it and don't really wanna spoil it for yourself, I suggest you scroll on by)

So, I have been playing Octopath Traveler 2 for a while now. I started with Ochette as my protagonist (because out of the main themes in the soundtrack I loved hers the most -- at least at the time before I started playing the game), but as I played the other characters, Castti began growing on me.

And then Chapter 3 happened and I... I didn't expect the gutpunch of a revelation that came. My friend yelled out in shock, I was rendered speechless and didn't let the game proceed with the next dialogue for quite some time as we cried our eyes out.

Fun fact: it was the eve of Mother's Day when we got to this chapter, and just before this moment, I had just beaten Mother in Throné's story. It was an emotionally... interesting weekend.

It has been over a week. Almost two, I'd say. And I am still not over it. Clearly.

Anyways, Castti's main theme is my favourite now.

it's funny going back and forth between fft and tristrat bc fft will make you think about ramza's role in the aristocracy as compared to the commonfolk who are betrayed and abandoned by the state for the sake of profit. meanwhile tristrat will have a scene where travis and trish are like "oh so when you nobles participate in the illegal salt trade it's completely fine??" and serenoa says "yes. because im literally nice"

[smilepebble]

final fantasy tactics: before you stands a man who once fought tooth and nail for a kinder, more just world, who's lost himself in the fruitless power struggle that now plagues your realm. as a former member of the aristocracy which is responsible for this man's suffering, can you truly call it justice to cut him down like the rest?

triangle strategy: oh you thought that not burning down your citizens homes being a golden route requirement was a MORAL thing? fuuuuck no we were just saving that shit for later. now activate the traps lord serenoa

[smilepebble]

it's been like two weeks and im still thinking about all the shit that goes on between serenoa and benedict if you go visit symon. benedict's basically like Well Lord Serenoa I Think I'm Going To Kill Myself After The Banquet Tonight and serenoa's like "oh... can you give me a minute to think about it" and then symon dies at the banquet and ruins benedict's killing himself plans so he immediately switches tracks like "lord serenoa have you considered becoming king of glenbrook" to which she's like WELL BENEDICT SINCE WE'RE ON THE TOPIC OF KILLING OURSELVES,

settlers are always so enthusiastic about ''foraging'' and then you'll start talking to them about indigenous horticulture & sustainable harvesting practices and they quickly reveal that they're more interested in the aesthetic of being a Crunchy Woodland Creature than like reducing their reliance on exploitative industrial agriculture or rebuilding their local foodshed
