      This is misinformation and is not the case. (Source: booklets that come with the physical CDs of both of these soundtracks and include full credits for every vocalist/instrumentalist). As similar as the vocalists are, and I think God-Shattering Star is a clear inspiration, they're not the same singer. Toshiaki Murakami is the singer in Vide the Wicked/Those Who Deny the Dawn, while the one in GSS is Takashi Baba. Hope this clears things up.

    Octopath is a game series that really excels with leitmotifs. Listening to the progression in each characters themes is so fun! Every character has a normal theme, pre battle theme, and final boss theme.
    For example we’ve got
    “osvold the scholar” (normal theme)
    “In pursuit of revenge” (pre-boss battle theme)
    “The journey for revenge ends” (osvold final boss theme)

    Octopath 1 was stellar, but Yasunori Nishiki absolutely outdid himself with Octopath 2.
    Fun fact: Song of Hope is actually the vocal version of the main theme of Agnea the Dancer. Agnea is the one in front on the soundtrack art, and that's her singing! (She is, quite literally, having a sing/dance-off with her rival here).

    Glad to see Octopath getting the attention it deserves. It was my game of the year 2023^-^
    Though I wonder:
    Why was there not a single "(Night)" track in here?
    One of the biggest mechanics in this game specificly is the controllable night and day cycle changing most themes between night and day (hence the "(Day)" in a lot of these chosen titles).
    I know that the day themes are more popular but to just neglect the night themes feels so odd to me...unless it's a setup for an Octo-part 2 night theme boogaloo in which case, nevermind all that ("Beyond the Sands(Night)" was one my favorite "fullstop and listen" moment in this game).
    Also on a sidenote that has nothing to do with the video, but the game:
    Octopath 1 slander, feels the same to me as BotW or FE:3H slander after their sequels. I sorta get where it's coming from, but the games would not be here without their prequels and in my opinion that should be respected a lot more. Just because they aren't Retro yet, doesn't mean we shouldn't consider what they did right in their prime time. Octopath 1 has an incredible OST and HD-2D has hit the Square and just generally the RPG scene like a Draco Meteor.
    It's insane to me that some people feel like it's a hottake to like Octopath Traveler 1, because it really should not be the case.
    It's fine to not like a game for your own reasons but the slander coming from subjective reasoning is sooo toxic :P
