[Merry Mockmas]

Octopath Traveler II - I've got to be honest and say that I was uncertain at the very beginning of the Game, but to give it credit it just gets better and better as it goes along.

I've just picked Ochette's first chapter to do last night, who in fairness delivered a stronger first chapter than I had anticipated.

I'll do my rankings for the other characters (excluding Ochette for now because I've only just got her in the party) and tbh this list was really tight between the top 3 in particular as they all excel for me in totally different ways, but I'll give it a go anyway.

1. Throne
2. Teminos
3. Hikari
4. Castti
5. Osvald - Slow start to his story imo, but it definitely is coming into it's own as it's going along.
6. Partitio
7. Agnea
