It was some pretty lucky circumstances for both, I've never really played Octopath but I played the hunter in the demo and for Baldur's Gate I played it earlier this year so it was fairly fresh in memory.

Oh great! How did you like playing such an old classic in 2022?

Honestly, I wasn't super fond of it sadly. I think I've realized I'm not really a fan of games that build very heavily on DnD mechanics, they don't translate that well into video games imo. Kind of had the same problem with KOTOR though I did like the first one for it's story.

But well the writing was fairly good and I did like Minsc & Boo (obviously), so there was some good stuff in there.

It's also worth noting that I played the original and not the enhanced edition, not sure how big the difference is.
