Oh My God This Is So Interesting - Tumblr Posts

Interesting theory on a potential literary influence for both Octopath Traveler’s narrative structure and the distinctive speech patterns of H’annit and her village in the English localization. Having read The Canterbury Tales at university I’m still not entirely convinced that the localizers were aiming for strict fidelity to the rules of Middle English (essentially English with even more obvious French influence, both in spelling and phonetics), but at the same time it’s not a completely arbitrary writing choice.
