Definitely amongst my absolute favorite games of all-time.
Similar to how I'd say DOOM Eternal embodies the essence of "the" exemplar FPS or Elden Ring with open worlds, I'd say Octopath Traveler 2 embodies the essence of a JRPG, personally.
Moving onto the individual stories before the main plots converge, Throné, Cassti, and Osvald were beyond phenomenal. Just insane emotional experiences.
Partitio, Hikari, Temenos, Agnea, and Ochette aren't super far off either, each having a powerful climax to tie it all together
both more bright and energetic day versions and lower key night versions that use different instruments and change the pace and atmosphere
The previously acclaimed soundtrack and gameplay both get a glow up from the 1st game.
Phenomenal 131 OST where every song lives up to the hype. None are skippable 💪
Examples:
Ordinary Boss theme
Agnea Final Boss theme
Overall Final Boss theme
The town, dungeon, story themes https://t.co/WPkGtbETn0
The story itself was strong for each individual character and they were all well-intertwined.
The crossed-path stories I felt were all amazing and strongly added to their overall dynamics.
Finished
Octopath Traveler II
10/10

I'm happy that it did everything I wanted it to do and more.
It was a wonderful experience from beginning to end. https://t.co/MBurMO4jP0
