Well looks like a far more detailed Mother 2/3 to me if anything (art style mostly) it's not 2.5D like Octopath but just 2D, this is some of the best pixel art I've seen lately very impressive
Anyway bought it since reviews are great and it's not very expensive will play after i if finish Tales of Arise.
Signature/Avatar nuking: none (can be changed in your profile)
