Octopath Traveler is a stunning tilt-shifted art style RPG with a deep battle system that makes every encounter an exercise in thoughtful strategizing. The game has beautiful visuals, with realistic sand, snow and water and lighting effects which create a dreamlike world. The eight different tales are well-written and voice acted.
