00:00how's it going everyone just want to
00:02give you guys a quick heads up that
00:04octopath traveler is officially
00:07available on the PlayStation Store just
00:09like I said in yesterday's video I was
00:12pretty confident that this wasn't going
00:14to have a big promotional roll out and
00:16uh they did even less than I expected
00:19them I thought maybe they would have a
00:21trailer come out and be like Oh The
00:22Game's out in 4 weeks no the game is
00:25just live right now and you know what
00:27maybe not doing a promotional push was a
00:29good call because this price point is
00:31absolutely egregious I get it that
00:34octopad traveler is already a relatively
00:36Niche game and the people that want to
00:38play it are going to play it but I was
00:40of the mindset that hey $40 I would
00:42understand $30 would be ideal but uh you
00:45know I know Square Enix isn't going to
00:47give us an ideal price point but no they
00:48just decided to release it at $60 uh to
00:51be fair if you are a PlayStation Plus
00:54subscriber they're doing a 34% off offer
00:57$ 3959 for that so uh it is $40 with
01:01your PlayStation Plus subscription but
01:02the base price being $60 is so uh wild
01:06to me but you know what again this is a
01:08relatively Niche game and uh the people
01:11that want to play it probably are
01:12excited for it like I said in the
01:13previous video if you didn't watch that
01:15I don't think octopath traveler 1 is
01:17nearly as good as octopath traveler 2 I
01:19thought traveler 2 just made the game uh
01:21or just improved upon the original the
01:23original still has the charm it still
01:25has that J qua so to speak and I think
01:29when octop path The Traveler initially
01:31came out people were just so captivated
01:33by the style of the game it was
01:35presentation wise it was aesthetically a
01:37beautiful game to look at but it was
01:40only available on the Nintendo switch
01:41for a while then it got poured into PC
01:44it may have gotten to p on Xbox I don't
01:46remember if it did it must it might have
01:48been one of those weird games that got a
01:49inexplicable Xbox Port I don't remember
01:52but a lot of those games like live alive
01:54as well wasn't on PlayStation for a
01:55while and that recently got ported well
01:57when I say recently like a year ago but
01:58you get the idea somewhat recently it
02:01got boarded to PC as well and uh excuse
02:04me PC and PlayStation 5 and now you have
02:07octopad traveler one available on
02:09PlayStation 5 if you're a hardcore jrpg
02:11fan you probably already played this
02:13game on the Nintendo switch but if you
02:15haven't I certainly would add it to your
02:17wish list check it out down the line $40
02:20if you're a plus subscriber that's an
02:22okay deal um but even then if this was
02:24just $40 uh base I would probably even
02:27say then wait for it to be 50 % off but
02:30the thing is after this PlayStation Plus
02:32offer goes away on June the 20th it'll
02:35settle at that $60 price point so the
02:37best offer you're going to get way down
02:39the line is going to be like a 50% off
02:41discount for 29.9 these Square Enix
02:43jrpgs just hold up in price guys that's
02:45what you just have to expect live alive
02:47a year after release I think the best
02:49price you're going to get for that is
02:50like 25 bucks Crisis Core reunion a
02:52remaster of a PSP game $25 Tactics Ogre
02:56$25 like Square Enix games are ones that
02:59uh more than a lot of other Publishers
03:02like outside of like from software games
03:03on PlayStation and like the PlayStation
03:05first party games score Enix games will
03:07hold up in price and that's because you
03:09know that hardcore audience is going to
03:11pay it and again the tactics ogers of
03:13the world the star oceans of the world
03:16those games do Target an audience that
03:17are super into this genre and uh they'll
03:20pay a premium but with octopath um yeah
03:23like I could say wait on a sale for it
03:25but the weit on a sale is going to be
03:26like 30 bucks way down the line so if
03:29you want to pick it up now go ahead and
03:30do it uh I just think the price point is
03:32crazy but that'll do it for me let me
