The traveler’s themes were an absolute stroke of genius by the composer of this soundtrack, Yasunori Nishiki. Music is one of the most subjective things out there in the world and naturally, this list will revolve around my tastes (loud and fast over soft and slow, generally) so don’t feel insulted if I left off a track you really like.Īnyway, let’s get on with it, shall we? 10 – Tressa, the Merchant Also, I know it’s obvious, but this is the internet so I still need to stress that these are my opinions. Naturally, picking 10 tracks was always going to be a tricky task that led to me leaving some great tracks off of the list like H’annit, the Hunter A Settlement in the Red Bluffs and Battle II, which are all honourable mentions. The soundtrack has just about everything you could want, there are touching slow tracks, exhilaratingly fast tracks and just about everything in between and as of right now, it’s the only game soundtrack that I own a physical CD of, I love it that much. With each passing year, my Spotify playlist is becoming more and more filled with game OST’s and Octopath Traveler’s soundtrack is most definitely my overall favourite. Moreso than the story, the characters or even the gameplay, what sticks with me for the longest time after I’m finished with a game is the music.

The first of these is the part of a game that always sticks with me the longest.

Regardless, I’m making it up to you with not just one, but two articles all about Octopath Traveler this weekend, one today and one on Sunday. Yes, I know I’m one week late to celebrate the 1 year anniversary of Octopath Traveler’s release, but there was a WWE Pay-Per-View on, so I had to cover that instead. WARNING: This list will contain major SPOILERS for several traveler’s stories and post-game content.
