We explore both Octopath Traveler and God of War in their timing on taking a risk in the gaming scene. God of War completely flipped its franchise on the head to make a brand new experience. Octopath Traveler on the other hand was an example of Square Enix going back to basics and bringing to light what made them great in the first place.

When is the right time for games to do this? What are some game franchises that need this kind of treatment?
