Octopath is old-school, but not particularly ambitious and doesn't come close to the heights of the better SNES JRPGs, but it is very polished and there aren't many glaring flaws, other than random battles.
Xenoblade 2 on the other hand, consistently reaches higher highs, but it is also flawed in many areas and if you care about playing undocked, the low resolution makes it basically unplayable.

I'd go for Xenoblade 2 as the most enjoyable RPG of the two, even if you do have to battle clunky design choices from time to time.
