To those who say Octopath is not worth 60 dollars...

I wasn't asked, but I can answer to the bolded: I bought the special edition for Bravely Default, exactly because I wanted to pay more money to signal to Square, that we need more high quality turn-based RPG-titles. And that's the point, we are not entirely without turn-based RPGs, but many are of mediocre quality. Bravely Default was an investment in the genre with quality, it sits at a 85 Meta. Octopath Traveler reaches a similar quality and has 84 Metascore. This is a good thing for me as a fan of turn-based RPGs. And I want to send a clear signal: if the quality is there, the sales are too.

We may not be sure if it's direct consequence, but it is good when companies seem to hear what its base wants and produce it.

Sure, one single purchase doesn't change the world. But I hope I'm not alone in such things. And I agree, it is a good thing if companies see the wishes of the customers.
