The only AAA/AA video game I've bought this year was Vanquish(PC).
It's been a pretty cheap year so far for me^^

You kind of hit the nail on the head with the last part of your last sentence. It LOOKS like a mobile game. And, graphics are by far the #1 factor that determines a budget. With it's 2D-heavy aesthetic, they would actually have to try to willingly throw away money in order to push the game into mid-tier territory. Clearly, the AA games I listed are on a budget-level far above Octopath, but still far below AAA.
People seem to get pretty touchy when I point this out (not saying you are). I'm not sure if it's because it's a Nintendo exclusive, or what. I'm just calling a spade a spade, and want to see more Turn-Based games hit the mid-tier, full 3D world to explore, level.

it baffles me how you can look at gameplay footage from Octopath Traveller and say it looks like a mobile game or that this game isn't a AA game, especially when you have Trails of cold steel 2 in your own AA-list.

I don't understand...That's WHY I'm saying Octopath isn't AA. You can't say those two games are on the same budget level.
One look at Octopath and one look at Trails of Cold Steel tells you that Trails of Cold Steel has a MUCH bigger budget.
