Much better. by Mischief Maker 09/28/2016, 6:41pm PDT
I got Ys Origin as part of a Humble Bundle years ago and I just couldn't get into it. Now that I've played Oath, I can see Origin is set up more like an expansion pack that presumes the player's already familiar with the systems that Oath doles out at a more steady pace. Also the music that I heard in Origin is totally inferior. Finally the plot to Origin is a giant fanservice for people who loved Ys 1 and 2 so if you haven't played those games you'll be lost.

They do run on the same engine, however, so if you played Origin, you have an idea of how Oath plays before unlocking dash and double jump.
