Tell me about Borderlands and Octopath. For the record, my BioShock 2 guide won an award.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/switch/204212-octopath-traveler

Octopath Traveler is an RPG with eight playable stories and eight playable characters (hence the 'octo' in the name). You pick one at your beginning as your 'main' character and play through their side story first, but as you meet and recruit the others, you also play through their stories, with your current party helping them as you go along. You can do the stories in any order (though some of them may be tougher if you try doing them earlier) and I believe there's a final chapter that happens after you beat all eight of the other stories. I haven't made it that far, but I've heard people mention it. The game uses 2D sprites and 2D-ish exploration, but the art and backgrounds still manage to be extremely beautiful and detailed while still having a retro feel to it. Look at the pic below to see what I mean:

As for Borderlands...

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/ps4/115693-borderlands-the-handsome-collection

I edited it out of my post because you mentioned the whole reflexes thing, but if you want to know... the Borderlands series is a combination of fast-paced FPS gameplay with added RPG elements. Each game has several different characters that you can play through the campaign with, and each character has their own skill trees and playing style. For example, Axton the Commando has a deployable sentry turret and his skill tree can make the turret more useful for defensive (like giving it a shield) or offensive (giving it rocket launchers, more damage, etc.) capabilities, while Salvador the Gunzerker can dual-wield weapons and his skill trees can give him more durability (increased health and status resistance) or firepower (increased damage, fire rate, reload speed). There's also a long campaign story that can be played co-op with up to four people, along with hundreds of side quests, and an absurd amount of guns to use. In 2 and Pre-Sequel, there are literally millions of possible guns because of how the guns are procedurally generated using different parts.

Sell me.

The games at the core are about crafting and selling items. The typical gameplay cycle is Traveling across the world map> Harvesting items from collection points> Battling monsters to harvest items from them> Traveling back to your shop> crafting items to sell/ turn in for quests/ or use in battle.

To get the mats for better items you have to go to high level areas, so it requires a level of planning and stocking up on healing items and one time consumables. It really feels like an accomplishment when you get some high level materials and craft some high level items.

The battle system is turn based and has its own mechanics. Most notable is the guard system. Where you can use a higher level or more defensive character to cover a weaker party member that may specialize in using items in battle. No more having to worry about the AI ganging up on your weakest character and killing them off the rip.

The characters are all what you would expect in an anime style game. They all follow some tropes and usually have comedic personalities. There is light fanservice at times, but its not in your face at all.

Eh?

Bloodborne. You never heard of it ? It's a PS4 exclusive, it's SOMEWHAT part of the Souls series, but not in the same universe. Still From Software, same basic principle but in a sort of Lovecraft/Victorian setting, with a much faster and more agressive combat. Possibly the best single player/co-op experience in history (if not Dark Souls 1).
Here's a vidya I made fighting a boss
