![]() Day or night can be toggled at will, so it’s more like switching between modes than something you have to wait around for. This time around, each character has a pair of special abilities: one for the day and one for the night. You're just going to have to trust me to avoid spoilers, but it’s too bad it ends up feeling like a deceptive choice. I liked that it gives you the choice, since I prefer powering my way through games and asking questions later, but what I didn't like was discovering fairly late in the campaign how important it is to actually play through each chapter yourself. Upon meeting a new character you're given the option to play through their first chapter or just add them to your party. Once you do begin wandering in your level-appropriate areas, you’ll come across new towns with new characters. If the area says it's 16, you best have a party of characters at or above level 16. You might think to yourself "Ah, but I am a seasoned JRPG veteran, I know a thing or two about how to approach high-level zones," but I'm here to tell you you're wrong. For example, if you enter an area with a "Danger Level 16" and you're at level five, you're going to be murdered pretty much instantly upon your first encounter. You're then free to wander the beautiful tilt-shift world, but areas are more or less locked out by their difficulty level. You can choose to start with any of them, and after playing through the first hour-long chapter of their story you're stuck with that character for the rest of the campaign – meaning you can't remove them from your party. But the stories aren’t directly connected either, so if you are considering starting the journey here, you should know that once again the name ”Octopath” refers to the eight playable characters and the paths they follow through the world. It's mostly the multipoint connection that marks the upgrade.Because Octopath Traveler 2 is so similar to its excellent predecessor, there’s no reason not to go back and play the original first. Like on the Buds 4 though, the mid-bass isn't the tightest. Redmi Buds 4 Pro sound is also more balanced, with a cleaner midrange, earlier rolled-off highs and a warmer undertone. that provide up to 6,5 hours of playtime with ANC on - a useful 2,5 hours more than the cheaper Buds 4. The Pro has a slightly more pocketable case, and more generic-looking stem designs. The biggest difference between the Redmi Buds 4 and Redmi Buds 4 Pro is that the Pro has multipoint connection, meaning you can tie it to two Bluetooth devices and automatically switch between them when you receive a call or start playing on the other device. Both models have the same natural Transparency mode, but the regular Redmi Buds 4 puts your voice through clearer in phone and video calls. It softens mid-tones in the background better, making it more effective in reducing distant traffic and chatter. ![]() You can't turn ANC off from the earbuds, but it actually isn't a big problem, as the ANC's intelligence does a good job of filtering out wind noise - a very nice feature for when you take these earbuds for a run.Ĭosting around $30 more, the Redmi Buds 4 Pro brings slightly stronger Active Noise Cancelling than the regular Redmi Buds 4. Like on the Apple AirPods Pro, it can almost feel like your earbud isn't there when you're walking, running or cycling outside. While conversations are harder to pick up, the Transparency mode impresses with its naturalness. The Transparency Mode is wonderful, however, and lets you easily hear and locate traffic around you when you're playing music up to moderate volume. The ANC isn't very strong by itself, but it helps to reduce noise when you're listening to music. Especially mid-tones, including distant and constant traffic, can still be audible. Most of the times, the ANC doesn't soften and reduce much background and nearby sounds. Seriously: you sometimes need to have patience and may have to fiddle with the fit to get the effect to kick in. The Redmi Buds 4 has intelligent Active Noise Cancelling: it can check out your surroundings to improve the noise reduction after a while. ![]()
