Author's Note:
It's good to see that Octopath Traveler is back on the Switch. Although the sequel is a game that surpasses the original title in every possible aspect, the importance of this game cannot be forgotten. It's the first 2D-HD installment, it marked a return to the traditional turn-based JRPG, and, at least for a while, it was a big Switch exclusive.
