SG 109 | OCTOPATH TRAVELER II + VENTAS DE PS VR2 + VENTAS DE XBOX SERIES & ACTUALIDAD
Episode notes
The programme opens with first impressions of Octopath Traveler II, a classic RPG with eight protagonists that retains its episodic structure and, according to the participants, improves the presentation and integration of its stories over the original. They also discuss Chained Echoes, Sons of the Forest in early access, and the chess-puzzle indie The Ouroboros King.
The news section focuses on a State of Play they consider underwhelming, especially because of the need for more exclusive offerings for PS VR2. They cover Baldur’s Gate 3, the reception of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, Tchia, and the integration of Luminous Productions into Square Enix, before debating Forspoken and the future of Nintendo Switch.
The episode addresses PS VR2’s initial sales in Spain, its features, price, and dependence on PlayStation 5, as well as the availability of that console. It discusses the Elden Ring DLC, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, Atomic Heart, and Sons of the Forest’s early success. Finally, they analyse Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard, unofficial Xbox Series figures, and return to Octopath Traveler II for a deeper look at its exploration, mechanics, length, and overall assessment.
