Why didn't we like this?
Why didn't we like this?
Like most portable RPGs the second half of the game is the first half again
I played this on release and most people enjoyed it but it's true that the second half of the game is a slog.
We did like it, people bitching about the loops are a minority. It was Bravely Second the one that ruined everything.
Too repetitive
It’s slop
It's the only good bravely game
it was there the entire time
we
Anons liked it. Main complaint was it dragged and the grind
because the game decided that it needed to pad itself out in the most boring way known to man
Censored.
I really liked the first game (i even imported its artbook) but Bravely Second ruined everything so hard that now I don't want anything from this franchise unless they retcon BS.
I 100% the game so clearly I liked it. Do not buy it if it's the censored version thoughbeit.
They did, but for some reason didn't like BS even though there was cooler jobs and no time loop filler garbage
The loop stuff is bullshit. But the soundtrack is god tier.
It was good until the time loops.
we
Also it's still better than every modern FF from XIII forward. From art direction to characters to gameplay.
You know how Final Fantasy spent like a decade and a half ripping off less visible JRPGs with a bigger budget?
This was Final Fantasy ripping itself off with an added layer of obliviousness as to why the things they ripped off were good
It's the cardboard of JRPGs
The time loops were gay but the rest of the game made up for it so I liked it overall. I didn't like the story or new characters in Bravely Second and the gameplay didn't improve much.
localized jrpgs are not welcome.
Trails and xenoblade niggas are next.
I liked it.
Sex with Agnes and Edea at the same time.
In general I can't think of any JRPG's where the last part of the game is more fun than the early or mid game
I couldn't stand the generic irish folk music elements in the soundtrack.
I liked everything about it. Except how characters had to say 100 words for something that should take 5. It was suppose to be the revival of classic Final Fantasy. An enhanced version of FFIII. And it did that flawlessly...except it added modern Final Fantasy's filler dialogue and obsession with plot twists. And that was its downfall.
The issue wasn't the time loops (which weren't actually time but space related). The issue was pacing and too much filler. If they came out with a remaster or port where 75% of the dialogue was trimmed and full 1080p support, it would be one of the best JRPGs ever.
why do people dislike Bravely Second again? i thought it was a fun game
Why didn't we like this?
I'd already played dozens of great RPG's from generations 3, 4, 5 and 6 so by the time you get to stuff like this, it just feels really tiresome. I've seen it all before a thousand times.
And the music sucked.
Uh, I just came to the revelation that Nia from Xenoblade is basically another Edea.
bravely default? more like FAIRY LIED LMAO!
The game is like 75% filler and the pay off isn't worth it in the slightest.
Tried playing it. After 40 hours of reading dialogue, it hadn't even started yet. It was obviously going down the same filler path as the first game and I lost interest.
How come every single 3DS game possible is getting a remaster EXCEPT KID ICARUS UPRISING?! Just last year they remaster Mobster Hunter Stories which was something we thought Capcom would never do: remaster an old Monster Hunter game for a new console.
Because it actually uses the touch screen.
I don't really know, I liked Bravely Second.
It's Bravely Default 2 that's a massive piece of shit.
It ruined the story, people that got BD's secret movie get specially mad because it clearly shows how the writer of the fist game was changed for a "team or writers" for the second game.
Censored shit if the new one is censored not buying it again. Fuck you square.
The fairy was too fat
i stopped playing bravely default randomly a few years ago but i think the last thing i did was fight braev lee in eternia. how much of the game was left?
About halfway.
is the story good if I already know the twist?
story is fucking dogshit, offensively bad on every aspect, full of horrible comedy that isn't even consistent among gags
one random guy built an ENTIRE TECHNOLOGICALLY SUPERIOR EMPIRE offscreen over a single decade
returning characters were ruined beyond any hope of recovery, only Ringabel made it out unscathed
most of the game is revisiting the exact same locations and dungeons, almost zero sense of discovery
the heavenly realm being the real world is retconned, now it's just some sci-fi world
ultra forced main theme of "love"
ultra garbage and forgettable soundtrack
Yew and his coup de gravy catchphrase is garbage
Magnolia was character assasinated, can't stop talking about busting baals
schizophrenic tone, story doesn't know if it wants to be lighthearted or serious
new asterisk holders are beyond lame
old asterisk holders were ruined
turbo questionable moral choices in sidequests, somehow siding with super evil guys and doing bad things is painted as good thing(but on the second loop you want to betray your morals for the rest of the jobs)
Bonus: the japanese release had even worse sidequests where your first loop always gave you bad endings no matter what you picked, and you had to double down to get a good ending(missing a job)
The new classes were super fun and so was the combat, but the game is really bad no matter how you look at it.
They telegraph it really hard anyways and it's just dumb and frustrating watching a million mustache twiriling villains plead with you to stop destroying crystals but never telling you why. And the main characters never stop and wonder why these evil, selfish assholes are killing themselves to try and stop them from destroying the crystals.
The gameplay mechanics are great, really fun job system and it's the only rpg I can think of that makes the blocking part of the attack/block/item/skill/run menu interesting. But god the story was stupid.
I recently started playing the uncensored version.
But cant do the online functions obviously.
Anyone that played it on release, how was the multiplayer shit? Was it mostly just a gimmick or do you feel that the online stuff was an integral part of the game? Is it fun enough to purchase the switch ver?
I just got ringabel and his schizo book. Edea a fat.
being made to confirm 16 actions per turn in random encounters is not fucking fun at all
Braindead combat.
Boring job system.
Censored western release.
I stopped playing when you get the kitsune job, I was tired of all the extra dialogue and even side quests were all about food, every fucking time. All the soul from know your character with small talk replaced with stupid trivia about the food.
ultra garbage and forgettable soundtrack
garbage is a compliment, every song was some shitty jp rock and tell nothing about the characters
the new classes were super fun
Agreed to an extent, the first asterisk were super broken and give you no reason to change, even if you get the time to grind the others you just come back to the good ones
Came out for a system made for people who ride public transportation. Adults didn't play it.
What's to like?
Anon, we DO like it and always did, like before it even had its English release announced people posted the "THERE IS NO FF" meme and "I WANT TO FUCK FAIRIES". 4WoL is the redheaded stepchild in the "Series", even with the ABSOLUTE DOGSHOT Localization people still acknowledge the good stuff in Second which should show how much good faith the first one bought, and like the biggest/second biggest issue with BD2 is "Not enough like BD1" (The other is Counters an then Bobblehead GRAFIX trail behind those being championed by Grafixtards).
reach final boss
in a higher dimension realm fighting eldritch abominations
about to fight a dimension wiping threat
final team chat before the final fight
it's still about food
how was the multiplayer
It wasn't a big, get people to help you through spot pass so you can get some extra items and clothes, the Baal fights were entertaining but mostly was people flexing they can get 999,999 damage moves to share
Came out for a system made for people who ride public transportation.
All the more reason it's bad. Since people can't even get through one cutscene in the time it takes to ride the train.
Everyone eats so Food is the ultimate commonality creator, it is why we got the whole "FOOD ANALOGY" thing, people considering messing with/stealing another persons food unforgivable and the whole idea of befriending through eating together.
The second half is kino. You complete the cycles in a fraction of the time and get fun battles with the asterisks.
and then Bravely Default 2 made Bravely Second look like a kamige by comparison.
1080p support
I hate poorfags so much
it was really funny that localizers were accidentally based when they busted out the manifest destiny having the Cowboy replace the Indian
for me it's how you could buy free turns with real money
that's true, but the third part is also the first part again
the worst was edea's dad
what you are doing is wrong
i won't say why no matter how much you ask now let's have a boss fight
You could put most of those complaints on the first game as well lmao.
We? Who is this we that you speak of?
It did not have Fairy Cumflation
based dad knowing that "because i say so" should be plenty
The worst part is once you change worlds in chapter 5 and 6, suddenly everyone wants to tell you everything. So you have an exposition dump. When they could have just had the villains in chaptrs 1-4 tell you all that. And then you wouldn't need the world jumping mechanic at all.
This is a common problem in Square games. Delaying the plot and the entire game for a big plot twist later on. But it hardly ever pays off because the plot twist usually is frustrating and invalidates the earlier story/world building.
Want to kill the church because they let millions to die is an acceptable reason to get mad at them, but they didn't say that until second. Also yeah everyone see that destroying the crystals is fucking everything up but they continue anyway
Let's go one by one
story is dogshit
Even if you think that, the sequel is many times worse
random guy builds an empire solo
nope
returning characters ruined
no returning characters, nope
revisiting locations
The loop sucked, but that's only 1/3rd of the game(and you can rush it in 30 minutes if you don't care about side content), in the sequel it's the entire game minus a couple dungeons and new cities
heavenly realm
Not retconned since it was a new concept
forced main theme of love
it has no main theme
forgettable soundtrack
nope, people still talk about it
MC is garbage and has a cringe-inducing catchphrase
The MC is boring at worst, has no catchphrase
Magnolia character assasination
There was no character assasination
schizophrenic tone
Only in exactly 1 sidequest, the rest of the game is consistent
questionable morals
There are no questionable morals, just retarded main characters who never ask the "bad guys" for more info
Overall only one MAYBE applies, so no, you are simply retarded.
But I did. I even enjoyed the loops. Second and especially 2 were the issues.
I like lolis
We did, but the second half kind of sucked. The second game sucked entirely.
The atrocious they commit are worse than the church, and are in reality are all pointless, cause the world doesnt end unless all 4 crystals are activated and having the first 3 activated is good for the people
I'm buying every turn based from square
While also ignoring every action combat
It's not much, but it's my contribution
I'm gay
That saves 110 characters and says the same thing.
While you seemed to manage saying
I didn't get enough attention as a kid, so look how much of a tryhardfag I am
In 50 or so characters, similarly impressive
Luv Edea. Luv Agnes. Simple as.
BD2 is shockingly terrible
A combat system utterly fucked by trying to do ATB rather than team turns
Difficulty at the end of the game is added by just giving bosses BP in a response to you doing anything
A story that reads like the outline of a first draft
A game world that seems to literally be inhabited by 100 people rather than those 100 people being representations of far more
I did?
Ive been Pro MRGRGR for years.
I try to reverse the own, but can't even make it more efficient
I expected a turn based queer to not be intelligent, but KEKAROO
i dont know if its just me but i dont like playing the same game again, which is why "remasters" are an ez pass, besides it wasn't even a GREAT game
I do like it. Never played second. Default 2 was awful
Ravely
Efault
I don't get it
shame MRGRGR, the pope, and the other one dont have much art.
Fortunately Koikatsu exists and Edea and Agnes are fuckin cute in it so I got some ways to do it to em.
well, it was censored for english speakers. pretty gay of you ask me.
literally did not play the game
BD2 defenders exist?
its not ATB, people who complain about counters just want to steamroll the game with godspeed strike, the story has never been particularly deep and there's more npcs than in either BD or BS
i dropped the game when i found out i had to replay every area, what, three more times? like cmon lmao. you couldn't even just skip to all the main dungeons/bosses, you had to grind at least 5 hours to do that
Just answer me this
Did they ever explain why Edda's sister hated humans enough to want to unleash a horrible nightmare upon the land? Like she's far, far, FAR more angry than any other fairy in the game and I don't remember it ever explained why
And the counters started off fine and it was nice getting punished for certain things and needing to fight around them but the counters got progressively more and more stupid as the game went on.
I did beat the game I got the final ending where you Brave a bunch and everything. The middle ending where Elvis talks to Edda as she seals herself off and they basically say they love each other didn't feel earned either. I wanted to like them but you really didn't get a lot of characterization. BS might have been BS but they felt more like characters than the party in 2
she hates humans because she thinks their violent animals who can only destroy because she witnessed the woman who became the nights nexus become the nights nexus through her green and betrayal of her friend who is strongly implied to be seth in his previous life
It's hilarious how Bravely Second needs you to have played the demo for the emotional stakes of the prologue to make sense at all
I liked it
models were higher quality and the gameplay was a straight upgrade
the writing was dogshit in both games for different reasons so I don't get all the complaints about second
yeah. people say BD2 had bad writing but its obvious Second had 2-3 full rewrites
I liked how you entered the bad end route a literal minute after the game starts. That was fun to realize after you do it.
I didn't get the impression that she even knew the NN at all beyond some horrible nightmare to unleash
Honestly she seemed so cacklingly evil I figured she was possessed or something but then she just dies and is never mentioned again
I did like the bit where you go through multiple bad endings and flashback to just before the first final battle and are like "Yeah let's not do that this time either"
2 was extremely undercooked. I said it before and I'll say it again but it's like the outline of a first draft
spend the entire demo stablishing how the Three Cavaliers are battle-hardened knights who have fought together for years and would die for each other.
actually no, let's use zero of that, have Jenne and Nikolai betray Yew in the first five minutes thanks to the Kaiser's offscreen haki
brilliant decision
Who’s we?
Also if you’ve played it, you’d know about the certain point that a lot of people dropped it
2's writing is fine up until the first bad end where Gloria dies. its there you can tell the 'rona fucked with development
KH3 remind?
They called the remake LYING FAIRY. C'mon now you are making it too obvious
Fairy sex
this is some quality bait
we
Speak for yourself, I loved it
The only turned based game i like is Pokémon. Shit makes me go to sleep otherwise.
Second's sidequests are so funny because a third of them are great and nail the old characters like the Black Mage/Hunter one and the other two thirds are completely bugfuck insane
do you want to fund the rapist wizard's might-explode-a-city research or do you want people in a desert to have water
do you want to let Mozart's lost symphonies be published or do you want a popstar to plagiarize them while you gain literally nothing off it
do you want people to be taxed 99% of their income to fund one (1) orphanage or do you want to not do that
do you want to i fucking dunno, just choose ninja or knight it doesn't matter you'll be retroactively right anyway
Please bite. This one was decently crafted.
I'm probably not going to buy this.
But it was enjoyable. I liked it.
And the counters started off fine and it was nice getting punished for certain things and needing to fight around them but the counters got progressively more and more stupid as the game went on.
I agree, i think a big thing is that you can still play around the Counters in the early game and they get used in a more interesting way (Counter is a Silence on a a Magic Caster for casting Magic? Just wear a Anti-Silence Accessory) but by the end it is just "COUNTER: EVERYTHING, ME GET 4+ BP/NUKE YOU!"
Like honestly the Bonus Bosses kinda suck because of it.
Why didn't we like it?
One anon made the comment "Cowardly Censored" and it lives rent free in my mind to this day. Also, they took away the bunny suits.
burn the desert shithole
mozart should have published them if he wanted them published at all
give the orphans their home
I am always correct
these are the objectively right options, as I am the one that selected them
I invested too many hours into repeating the same content in that game to make me want to play it again.
tell me more. same VA?
maybe i'll try to finish bravely default ii this time.
that last one is
do you want this completely useles retard who has been hindering a murder investigation with his "deductions" to become a cop or a PI
I chose cop for the ninja job, then PI later because he'd deal less damage as one
And 90% of that time was idling to build up your StreetPass Town.
get to the final side quest
Braev tells me I have to pick the sword or the shield and equip them
absent mindedly pick up the sword and the shield
don’t realise I have to equip one of them
talk to braev
”ahh yes my daughter, you have realised true governance is have both the means to protect your people and strike down your enemies but not wield them haste, you are wise beyond your year, have the special late game staff.”
…. Thanks dad
The orphan tax was hysterical
Like how was this money being spent? How many orphans could their possibly be? Was that all admin costs?
sex the chibis
The remaster will sell like hotcakes and lead to a flood of art, trust the plan
I don't think it's worth it, but I don't pay your sub
is this better than octopath 2 on pc?
we did, it's just the time loop stuff can be tedious. the battle system is one of the best iterations of the "4 niggas in a row" genre ever conceived. it is a damn shame at how little it has been used since.
It's different
It's even funnier when you choose to keep it and the resolution is that, somehow, for some fucking reason, everyone is making such an astronomical amount of money that the tax just means they're earning regular wages (and everyone is fine with not being a multimillionaire to fund a single orphanage) lmao
I liked the game but I have no intention of ever playing through that shit again unless they put some actual effort in the second half.
This pic is fake, Edea is not flat.
Literally repetitive
go back in time 3x
solve no problems
getting bored and annoyed fighting the same stupid bosses
fairy says let’s try again teehee
Nah you’re literally insane it’s not changing why do we keep wasting time
Wasn't the entire joke that it didn't fit because it was made for a cup size larger than she was?
Therefore, she is flat.
I want to believe it
Is it a crime to say I like B2nd Edea's design over her BD design?
Not at all. That is the correct way to enjoy Edea.
FF13
Arguable, Characters aren't locked to a primary Job, no Character specific actions, no path actions, classic world map instead of zones, Brave and Boost are very similar systems. Writing is Time Loop Faggotry, which can make things feel repetitive. No one is as cool as Ostwald and Castti,etc
Really depends on preferences, but you have to remember BD is basically a predecessor to OT, Funfact: the first OTs demo didn't have a Job System and specifically got it because people wanted one so it would be more like BD.
This. except its already too late to fix it
French moon wife soon
Not really a JRPG though
I'd say the last one that comes to mind is FFX because of all the shit that opens up and all the cool abilities you get to use
She was a failure, her character assassination done by that shitty "team of writers" made everyone hate her, she didn't get a SINGLE doujin.
I played this before any Final Fantasy games and always thought this was a very inferior version, but it turns out having a Linked Horizon soundtrack and fun characters makes it one of the best there ever was.
The only reason I own Bravely Default is because a kid in my drama class knew I was a fucking nerd and sold it to me for $20 because he hated it. Pretty fun game never finished it though.
I really, really wish Second didn't screw the pooch with her or the plot.
character assassination
what character was there to assassinate
smiling at the viewer in a trailer is not a character
Don't worry squenix's department of ethics removed all questionable content during development this time!
Only redeeming quality was the music and some of the art otherwise the games were terrible. Won't even comment on the story. It also started(?) the trend of trivializing difficulty/tedium in the options menu i.e. devs had no trusted direction for it.
The middle ending where Elvis talks to Edda as she seals herself off and they basically say they love each other didn't feel earned either
Did you miss the date they had on the tree?. Story may be shit and basically Default with no twist, but i think they did work on character moments
I was about to "end" the game before entering the first loop. what do I have to do to not get more of them? heard there was like eight or something
what do I have to do to not get more of them?
break the crystals for the bad ending
loops really aren't that bad, just tediously rushing the crystal bosses over and over but it's over really fucking quickly if that's all you're trying to do
haven't played this since shortly after launch
should I replay with a non-censored patch or just jerk off to some Edea doujins?
Yes.
And note if you do the Asterisk side quest they change.
Original run they all have BAD END, Second time you do it the characters use their knowledge to bypass the tragedies, 3rd and 4th has 2 Asterisk Users team up against you, which obviously mean the battle is different cause they fight together, and the fourth has the ones of a region basically group up in a 4 VS 4 battle. 3rd and 4 Loop tend to lean more into comedy and making them sympathetic too writing wise, with some exceptions. so it is really just the Crystal Guardians (Mandatory) and Dragons (Who are optional IIRC) that are THAT repetitive.
Yeah
I'm not saying they didn't do any work, but I don't think they did enough
BD2 lacked a lot of inter-party moments compared to previous games
Do it.
wonder if she ever me FuSoYa
The issue is more that they are Party Chats, like if you read every single Part Chat that pops up it get very obvious very early on that Elvis and Adelle got spark flying between them before even joining the party, but that stuff is optional, unvoiced and can be missed.
I'd say the actual big issue is that Elvis and Adelle are basically hard carrying the party Charisma-wise and Seth and Gloria (Discount Agnes) are dull.
Can you please stop jerking to chibis and go awaken the crystals?
The only thing I know is:
Lying Airy
And her battle music, which is pretty amazing
Obviously they are just training their XXX Edging skills so they can stop at the correct moment, you don't want them to get too excited and XXX too hard, right?
ok! but...
after I'm done drawing my on-model Magnolia doujin!
Im surprised you don't know that Camera turns on so your face is the background for the final battle because the final boss basically calls out the whole BD Multiverse exists to entertain an Extradimensional "God" that is watching them RIGHT NOW. That means YOU.
People tend to really love posting that kind of Meta stuff.
Bravely Second retroactively ruined the first game for me. Imagine paying real money to cheat in a singleplayer RPG.
Bravely Default 2 was better.
youtube.com
You lucked out, Bravely Default 2 is utterly soulless.
Bravely Default
Bravely Second
Bravely Default 2
why are japs so godawful at naming things? literal borderline mental retardation naming scheme
I mean, the "Pay To Win" SP refill idiocy was in BD1, added from the "Updated release" that was used for the English release.
I wouldn't say utterly, it has SOME things going for it, but it gets overshadowed by the bad stuff and not being what people expected (IE: Counterfaggotry, No meta Plot, no connection to BD,Jobs are uninteresting or things you already used in BD1 or come too late and so on) and by Default require you to be able to tolerate the Bobbleheads and budget graphics style to start with.
Desert Chapter was okay due Bernard and the Prince TWEEST, game Peaks at Wiswald and after that even when it sets things up it kinda just farts them away and you realize t.
No, I'm busy jerking to cryst-fairies. Could you hold still, please?
Octopath mogged it in every way
The secret movie made you think she was a cool Main character, the actual game made her a bimbo that only exists to suck yew's dick and do bad food jokes.
I mean, there is like a 6 year gap between them, and OT specifically took lessons from BD by taking good aspects and scrapping bad ones, so Duh?
No meta Plot
I mean it KINDA did, what with overwriting Inanna's save file, the final dungeon being the boat explorations, and pic rel
Obviously that doesn't compare to Heavenly Realm = Real World or Providence trying to delete your save file, but a mild attempt was made
Yeah 2 wasn't entirely without merit but it felt like nobody knew what the game was and it was just sort of going through the motions
Remember before BD2 launch, when we would speculate Ringabel and his space cops would show up?. And that the II would turn into III?. Good times
Bravely Default is much better in pretty much every aspect. Bravely Default is one of the greatest games of all time. Octopath was just ok.
And no, we like Bravely Default here. People posting pictures of Edea got me to buy a 3DS and play her game.
Ringabel and his space cops would show up?. And that the II would turn into III?
I beat the game waiting for something like that to happen
We did you fucking zoomer. Neck yourself.
I thought it was alright, but it really started to slog for me when it got to the constant time loops
I appreciate that they tried new things. I hope they realize that many of the things they tried failed and do not return in 3. After how cool magic was in Second, what they did to casters in 2 is just abhorrent. And the speed and encumbrance systems are disasters.
I like the new cast and most of the scenarios though.
The devs are extremely ashamed of BS (yeah, feel ashamed for ruining everything, faggots), most likely anything from it will never be referenced again. But this makes me think, will they remove BD's secret movie for this reason?
I kept seeing this game shilled for years on here
All I can say about it has the worst title I've ever read. just based on that I will never play it
Remaking Default better fucking mean they are planning on making Third.
Bravely Default was great
BD2 sucks dick though
And I never played much of Bravely Second so idk
usually the beginning is less interesting because your choices for skills and/or party members is more limited
great job system
mediocre characters
mediocre boss fights for the most part
ost is very good
the time loop shit is great as a concept but it makes the game complete ass to go through and or even replay
if most jrpgs have pacing issues this one is the king of pacing issues
It was honestly a really good decision on their part to have the first Job you get in BS be Wizard, people would probably be even harsher on it if you just got Black Mage or something like in BD2.
Especially since Wizard as a Job on its own is underwhelming because the spells are so weak, but each other Casting job you get after benefits hard from it by giving it actually good spells to craft with.
Where's my BD2 apology?
People are aware that you can (and should) shatter the crystals when Ringabel suggests you do, rather than loop the game another 3 times, right? You get a different final boss fight with great dialogue and a different ending.
The "true" ending is supposed to be a grind. The alternate ending is a much better experience and is clearly the way you're supposed to typically play the game, anway.
mediocre boss fights
above average i'd say, the asterisk users all try to use a bit of strategy to fuck you over, and the gauntlet at the end fighting optimized combo teams of the same jobs you can use is pretty cool
yeah but that's just a handful
they also repeat a lot and it is unacceptable to have a jrpg with shit or blank/no backgrounds for boss fights
Actually Ringabel ask you to keep playing along while buying time to plan something, because at that point he gets his memories back and knows what happens when you dont play ball.
Overrated slop. No challenge. Ugly characters. Lame "story".
Go play Phantasy Star IV for a real JRPG.
based EdeaCHADS putting Anon Babble newfags to shame, as always
The producer of the series said he named the third game BD2 because people got confused with Bravely Second's name. And how BS wasn't suppose to be a sequel but a continuation. But he should have just called the third game something else like Bravely Successor or something to not make it more confusing.
Also, Japan just loves throwing random foreign words together.
This. BD actually got good after you got to chapter 5 and they finally started explaining everything. They should have used all those boss fights and events in Chapters 1-4 to slowly reveal the story. Instead, they just threw tons of filler and deflection in. Then DeRosso and the sage basically info dump everything to you at DeRosso's Castle. And then all the enemies in the new worlds were nice and helpful.
Since they won't redo the entire game, a remaster should cut down all the filler dialogue and crap in Chapters 1-4 and get you to Chapter 5 faster. Problem is, Square only has two ways of doing remakes of games. 1) Keep everything exactly the same, flaws and all. Or 2) Drastically change everything, especially the good parts and making it worse, like FF7 remake. Most likely this game will be the exact same game just with a graphical upscale.
Ignore the image. It's a silly comic I still need to finish.
And how BS wasn't suppose to be a sequel but a continuation
when the rerelease of BD was called "for the sequel"
default ending hypes up hot mean lady that will bust your baals
she's an annoying french bitch
second end hypes up SPACE COPS
get literally nothing
I know not to be excited for anything
Was she French in the original Japanese or did the localization "flavor" her up like Square does for so many other games.
shouldn't take too long considering they share the same maps with some new locations.
The thief vs red wizard is egregious because at that point in the game the red wizard class is your only access to black and white magic. So either you use the shitty magic the game gives you or you gank the red wizard.
In the Pause screen you see her legs and you can see under her dress in the japanese Bravely.
why did ominus crow have such a vendetta against edea
I always lose interest after loop and time travel in both BD and Second Layer
Magnolia sexo.
Evil fairies sexo
yeah, I stopped playing because you are watching a AUDIOBOOK, just watch all cutscenes and conversations in youtube
Fantastic game should have replaced FF going forward. It has some of the best designed rpg classes of all times.
Bravely Second utterly ruins the story in a way I didn’t think would be possible and removes two of the funnest support classes while adding the best magic class in all of RPGs rivaled only by FFXI’s Scholar. Safe to say I am incredibly conflicted on Second but overall I’d consider it worthwhile to play JUST because of Wizard, it is far too fun to use.
She was english in the japanese version, they made her french to make her sound foreign in the english version
The translation was questionable but the original script was pure garbage too
FFXI’s Scholar
qrd?
I enjoyed the first game until I got past the first loop, and it just wasn't interesting enough for me to continue
Like yeah, the little changes in the asterisk quests were neat I guess, but it's just such a joykill finding out I needed to the same shit multiple times over, to see more the story that I actually wanted, when my first loop already took multiple tens of hours. I was admittedly too much of a shitter to kill the four crystal guardian niggas right away.
I do still want to fuck praline thoughever
Learns high level white and black magic with a focus on dot/hots. Has the ability to nuke almost as hard as a black mage or be a fully functioning healer in parties but is limited to stances that essentially switch them between white/black mode. Like Wizard they can “alter” magic to behave differently or boost it in unique ways, in XI they can signficantly reduce a spells mp cost or cooldown, modify a spell to be AOE, increase its potency, lower its enmity (white magic only), increase its accuracy (black magic only), increase buff duration (white magic only), or modify a black magic spell to have skillchain attributes allowing it to participate in a skillchain or letting them create their own skillchains.
I agree but is it worth completing at least? I'm questioning if I should drop this, just beat the beastmaster bitch. Everything feels stale so far. Combat is generic and default system just make me ask "why wouldn't I stack my actions to make fight go faster?" Story is snoozefest , feels like one of those bad isekai that has nice MC just because, and finally, ZERO fanservice or any gratuitous shot. I'm sorry but who is this game supposed to be for? A 10 yo could probably use this as bedtime app or something because it's so boring that it makes you go to sleep.
FFX
BD2? Beastmaster is like middle of Chapter 1 so i'd honestly say at least finish the Chapter and then maybe do the next one if you wanna see the game at its best, you will probably still not be won over but it should give some context so you can argue why it is shit and see some more takes on how they designed the standard classes since they are pretty unique.
Thief being all Glam Glam Gangsta was absolutely God tier since it playins into the greed and a "Gold Key" motif, and i actually like Red Mage being extremely subdued and "boring" considering how Flamboyant it tends to be, and it makes sense since it is the most "practical" school if magic.
I haven't played it yet so I have no opinion on it
I already played it in 3d on my 3ds
Anon Babble loved this game until nu-Anon Babble hated it.
Like with any game, it was cool to hate this one when it was new. It grew more fans after a year or two. But not much.
get to the final boss fight
start beating his deformed ass
suddenly he opens portals to whole different worlds
open a gigantic portal to the heavenly realm
3ds camera turns on
you get to see your face on the portal, reveling that the heavenly realm was just your room
It's still one of the most kink momenta in vidya history, congrats to squeel enix for making a fun final boss fight
this after i kinda maxed every class and character and did literally everything, i got right ot the final boss and was just like, whats the point anymore?
I guess in order to accomplish this on the switch 2, you'd need to be playing in docked mode with that camera attachment plugged in
I liked it a lot besides the lategame tedious loop repetition (multibosses were cool though). Hope the remaster improves it somehow.
To be fair, Second gameplay mechanics are an improvement and really enjoyable, despite the awfully watered down writing.
Whoever came up with the inconsistent Counter shit that bosses in BD2 had that only trigger sometimes and thus you can never have a genuine strategy to use should get loved in the crossfire. It was the first time I'd ever come into a new entry in a series I love and just absolutely lose any interest or faith in continuing.
I'm estastic about BD1 coming back though annoyed its not a bundle with Second but I'm gonna have to wait out the year or so for the ports like Live A Live, Octopath, etc etc got.
many such cases
I sold a friend on Bravely using an analogy I think really holds weight, which is that I think Bravely is what Final Fantasy would look like now if 5 was The Big One instead of 7.
2nd has more upskirt potential due to no pants
zero art focusing on this
Goddamnit
3. Bravely is basically a refined 3 DS. FF5 is my favorite, but just pointing out the systems are closer to 3. And some of the same people who worked on 3 DS and 4 Heroes worked on Bravely.
There's actually a lot. People just use BD1 Edea because that version is more popular.
Why do Airy's leggings have like 5 different designs
I like the game but the towns are straight up trash besides looking great. Alliance Alive mogs Bravely Default.
It was suppose to be the revival of classic Final Fantasy. An enhanced version of FFIII. And it did that flawlessly...except it added modern Final Fantasy's filler dialogue and obsession with plot twists. And that was its downfall.
...but enough about Final Fantasy IX.
I love chibi butts.
Nothing of FFIX is like FFIII. Doesn't even use a similar equipment or job system. Let alone the story, cinematics and crap.
Default is a shit mechanic
It isn't too bd a t first since the counters aren't too bad and make logical sense as payback (You cast a spell from wrong school of magic? Silence, which incidentally can easily be cured or be made immune against) and is a bit of soft power to favor new jobs when newly acquired. it is latter when the absolute garbage like COUNTER: ANYTHING and you get ushec into getting that Counter-Counter skill shit starts really shitting the bed because Bosses will be shitting out counters no matter what you do.
This, you fucking retard, 707187539. Not even giving you a (you).
Considering they were talking about how BD is trying to emulate classic FF games (I-III) I don't see what purpose of bringing up FFIX serves.
Still has the best BD doujin.
only Ringabel made it out unscathed
characters insist he can be their backup in the yokai fight
obviously this is the game's way of saying if they fail (not canon, would never happen) then he would step in because there's no way to accommodate a fifth party member in gameplay
fight begins
interrupts every other turn to dump pure KINO on the boss
One of the most hype moments I've experienced in a game
The gameplay is the best JRPG of all time but if you played the demo they kind of ruined Magnolia and even if they didn't, her personality of only being Yew's gf is kind of grating when even Tiz, who has the least amount going on between the four, has more charm to his character. The game's story is overhated though, it's honestly fine and the comedic tone makes for a breezy and easy to like game, but that also makes the darker moments feel more out of place especially when you get to the last dungeon and everyone is more or less treating it like a picnic with a time limit. Also I hope you don't like answers, because while the game feels like it's building towards them (don't get me wrong, it actually does answer a decent amount of things but not some of the most important stuff), it completely flounders the ending where the final boss is less explained than Necron.
I feel like 5 comes from the same school as 3 though, but I get what you mean. The way you build a list of subskills from other jobs to create your dream builds is why I think of 5 so much. Imagine if 3 was 1 and then 5 was the iteration, jump forward a few years and we're here at BD.
entire fight has this playing
Ringabel is the jrpg protagonist we need and it's a fucking crime that he basically had Bravely Third stolen from him
nobody
not a soul
not even big chungus
bravely second
BY THE WAY DID YOU KNOW THERE WAS A PLAGUE AND IT'S ALL YEW'S FAULT AND IT'S NOT HIS FAULT AND THE PLAGUE IS NO BIG DEAL AND EVERYONE IS FORGIVEN NOW
final team chat before the final fight
God I love Second.
If they changed it so getting the "bad" ending and beating Wicked Flight also surprise unlocks the true final boss in a plot twist so that the actually decent ending can be canon then I will buy five braveillion copies.
BS has a lot of strong specific moments, maybe thats why I think of the game so highly and a replay might ruin it if everyones arguments over the years are valid.
My favourite one by far was that I never at any point up until it unlocked thought that ___Kaiser_ was a Job.
It's good and the twist is kino, but the latter half gameplay-wise kinda ruined it. How many times can you fight the same bosses? I like what they tried, not what they did.
I had a problem with this the first time I played but after doing the demo and making it through the game, it does an ok job establishing their relationships by the end.
Also, no joke, Bravely Second is the best game in the franchise.
play Bravely Default 6 or 7 times in one playthrough just to beat the game
they come out with a direct sequel
it's your next two playthroughs of Bravely Default but with worse characters
They were on some Tears of the Kingdom shit with this
BS was the first time I realized that JRPGs relying on story over gameplay was severely misrepresenting how great the genre can be.
I like how cool and confident she is in Second, the outfit is fitting for her in that game.
The games need better dungeons.
I just haven't played it yet, backlog too crowded prease understand.
HD Remaster is $40
it's using a game-key card for a physical release
god I fucking hate the japs
be me, lowly knight
miss Edea Lee walks by
can't control myself, brave into 4 turns of Desperate Thrust since it's my only selectable move and I can't escape
explode on her back after only 3 turns of hotdogging her ass
she hits me so hard it sends my soul careening into some higher dimension
spend eons plotting my revenge to take over the worlds so I can have infinite Edea's asses to hump, create a couple of fairies to do my bidding, torture some scientist bitch because it makes cool dioramas when I make her suffer
the two party characters that aren't the main character couple are the best ones
It's a Bravely game alright
Westoids would have done this two gens ago if they thought they could get away with it, now they know they can. The three console companies have only inspired the worst in each other over the past ten years.
monogamous bimbo
Extravenously based
censored garbage
Could you imagine if they rerelease Second too and then Third is the same world map and towns and dungeons and characters AGAIN
It's not bad in the beginning but replaying it a bunch of times was super tedious and outstayed its welcome.
Why are they removing QoL
To sell DLC boosters.
Some knowledge for anyone playing or planning on playing Second: THESE are the grind spots. First one is usable after getting the boat and stays relevant longer than you think it would, has better JP yield than what you get from normal enemies at that point in the game despite enemies on this spot being easier to deal with. Decently easy to chain and after a while, you can set the auto battle command to just cast Heat from Wizard's ability to wipe everything in one turn and rack up combos like that. Insanely useful if you plan to grind a lot and even when later enemies give you more JP/EXP, this spot is still good due to how easy the enemies are to combo in comparison. Second area is a late game crypt, it replaces the first area because the enemies in this spot are all undead so you can set auto battle to have everyone throw Pheonix Downs on full Brave and/or use Resurrection and only start paying attention/quitting the combo once you're almost out of turns, plus the Adventurer is there to restock and heal up. Also of note is how useful the ambush prevention/preemptive strike abilities are because it gives you more turns and stops enemies from breaking your combo when they attack first. Guides always mention the hot springs and garden but these two are where it's at until those become viable options, and really only the garden replaces the crypt.
Why is my wife like this
Is the Japanese 3DS version the best one? It seems to have the option to change the language to English.
I'm guessing the Switch 2 release is gonna be censored slop as well?
You now remember that Fist of the North Star wasn't just testing the heroes' resolve which would have been a perfectly justifiable reason for his fight, he was actually fully prepared to nuke the sandniggers' clock castle town just to take out the kaiser.
Bravery Second was great. Bravely Default 2 was fucking garbage however.
Why is Agnés so unloved? Like I get why Edea is everyone's favorite but even Magnolia and Praline get more love in the BD threads.
desu I always thought of him as a slightly zestier Zidane.
I always said it was about the best Final Fantasy ever made. Only without the Final Fantasy name.
I still think it should have the Final Fantasy name.
They doomed it from the start because they thought a low budget game would dump on 13's and 15's style. Retarded.
VGH...
i dropped it during the boss rush loop it was annoying
Mechanically Bravely Default/Second has some of the best I've ever seen in a turn based RPG. The whole config for spells so there effect triggers depending on if attacked or chained together so you can use stuff like reduce all HP to deal max damage and heal upon doing so is really damn cool. The whole concept had more depth than 99 percent of JRPG's especially with the brave/default system.
She's pretty bland and huge no fun allowed. That being said I did kinda like her more cause I couldn't stand Edea's black or white bullshit the first time through.
Still, her telling Tiz she was more than willing to give up her position and take on his surname was hella cute.
Is there any point to renaming the characters?
here are your answers
overpriced
3ds graphics
zero budget
games with this level of budget and the kind of dogshit modelling worse than most ps1 games trying to be sold to you at full price instead of less than 20 bucks absolute max is never going to work
either they be less greedy or they put in substantially more work and effort
I'm guessing there's no chance this gets released for PC? I thought square dropped exclusives, because I really don't care to get a switch 2
Tiz just standing around in his bumfuck town when she shows up
Useless piece of shit, he went downhill the moment my soul left his body.
I'm guessing there's no chance this gets released for PC?
Of course not. Why would companies make their customers happy?
It's a Nintendo game so it releases day 1 on PC, you can even get the original version on PC right now.
Hmmmm Team Asano does have a history of porting exclusive stuff over to Steam after a while, though the 3DS Bravely games use their own engine instead of Unity. So who knows. Maybe, someday.
i was so fucking fed up when i got to the final boss and it was just random bill cipher with no connection to the rest of the plot. I hit the bravely second button and killed it in a single attack. lamest final boss ever.
I really don't understand why they didn't have Yoko as the final boss.
i can't set it to zero percent
why would i even want to play this.
I think they might do it, honestly. 2 came out on PC
For me it's because adverbs don't modify nouns but I'm a bit 'tistic about game titles.
Dragon Quest 9 got around this somehow
Being one of the four people who actually played 4HoL before BD and hearing the Nemesis theme for the first time
youtube.com
God I love Bravely Default so much.
Just play the original uncensored on emulator.
Time to finally play 4Heroes of Light
Because she is my sisterwife and she did nothing wrong despite Ringabel's misguided claims based on misinterpretations of her innocent actions.
I would be shocked
adverbs don't modify nouns
Default is used as a verb in this instance though
have some slight trouble with his first form after ignoring his commands
melt through phase 1 of his second form, watch all the characters cheer me on and tell me how we can totally beat him (cute moment), go back to melting through his phase 2
Meh fight, was interested since it seemed like it would explain Airy but it doesn't explain the thing that explains her so it fell flat.
pokemon mystery dungeon kinda counts I guess
I'm still hopeful for it.
I said autistic, not reasonable.
set up build with Tiz with "in the red" and the ghost status
unhittable, infinite mana, spell caster
get to final boss, trigger form change
tiz is "cured of his status" and resorted to one HP, with no mana
knocked out instantly
so fucking lame.
Kek fair enough.
No, I can't. Now if you'll excuse me I have to assign Spell Fencer to Agnes and Edea and never change it for the entire game.
I was always too afraid to utilize ghost
I dropped Second even though I loved BD. I just could not get into it. I see I'm not the only one.
Do you actually like Bravely Default or do you just want to fuck fairies?
VARIOUS DAYLIFE
Shut the FUCK up
My knees?! On their own??
Hate that shit, that’s why I stopped using ghost.
Are women who lie and betray good for you?
files.catbox.moe
files.catbox.moe
files.catbox.moe
That is the worst title possible
I knew a kid who also tried to sell me Bravely Default for $20 when I was in high school. I said i'd pass on it and he offered me fire emblem awakening instead for the same price.
Makes more sense than any Final Fantasy after the first one.
Final Fantasy has cool alliteration, and both are nice sounding words.
Bravely Default is nonsense, and default is a bad sounding word
You only believe that because English is a frightening and unknown language to you.
I played this on hard and it ruined my enjoyment of the game when I got to the latter part and bosses were 1 shotting me, it just wasn't fun to be forced to grind jobs to even have a chance.
That's not Bravely Second though
Thank god.
What menu commands and passive skills would someone get from your asterisk?
I'll play this game start to finish.
Someday.
I like turn-based JRPGs but the job system is one of my least favorite systems out of any of them. I don't like constantly resetting progress like that
It's not really a full reset since you can still use abilities from other jobs while leveling a different one up
Is it betrayal if she never was on your side?
I don't dislike her but her and Tiz, despite kind of being framed as the main characters, are actually a lot less relevant to the plot than Edea and Ringabel.
She's also just not really my type
Flying Fairy
Bravely default references three things.
The first is the game itself, the devs were told that a classic jrpg game wouldn’t sell and thus were given a lower budget. To make a classic game in the face of failure. In other words to be bravely default.
The second is gameplay, bravely default has two notable deviations from standard formula; default in which you do nothing and brave in which you extend future turn actions to act multiple times in one turn. Potentially it plays off as a gambit. Potentially doing nothing works better in the long term, regardless to get the most out of it you will need to bravely default.
Then there’s the plot in which our heroes continually do the same thing over and over again, knowing that there’s a trap for them if they keep doing it but wanting to trigger the trap to stop who is causing it. To maintain one’s original path with courage or in other words; to Bravely Default.
Honestly it’s cinema. No video game title comes close.
the devs were told that a classic jrpg game wouldn’t sell and thus were given a lower budget
retard CEOs man
the devs were told that a classic jrpg rerelease wouldn’t sell and thus were sabotaged with a fake cartridge, pointless exclusivity, and less gameplay features. To remaster a classic game in the face of failure.
God gives the toughest battles to his fiercest warriors...
To be fair Persona isn't a classic jrpg, it's a dating sim with a jrpg minigame. Dating sims with other genres attached sell like hotcakes.
Still has the best BD doujin
source
Just look up the game's title, there's like maybe 4 total lmao
I liked it.
Loops are some bullshit, but its still good.
BD2 was bad tho, and I'm sad we'll never get 3 even if the remake (which I will pirate) gets good sales
but which one?
but they're usually more fun at the end
I don't know why the devs bothered modeling any part of the female characters above the waist.
No, it's the only thing Second did better than Default. Shame there's next to no fanart about that costume that's basically
Let's give the girl with the huge ass a microskirt
Censored
and now Square is being lazy about stuffing 11gb into a cartridge
What was up with you having to redo the first four bosses 3 times in a row? I genuinely expected it to be a fake out where something would happen to take you out of the time loop or whatever it was but no, they really did make you redo those boss fights over and over again.
We did, it's the second one that was hated.
but we did
we called it the greatest final fantasy game ever made
No.
We?
characters are ugly as fuck
square enix designers have never seen an appealing woman in their lives
people who complain about counters just want to steamroll the game with godspeed strike,
Disingenuous post, there's so many things wrong with counters that the benefit of stopping certain types of spam is more than outweighed.
This is a vita neighborhood, fuck off
And the fourth part too
I'll happily defend 2 but counters are indeed a bit fucked, you can't brave x4 for risk of wiping sometimes
A lot
I Idorted both Vita and 3DS, it was nice. I miss when it was worth Idorting...
It is a great game that was hit by nintendo treehouse censorship. In fact it was the first notable game hit by their censorship.
It's been a while since I played but people seem to always way over exaggerate chapter 5 - 8.
The lmao Counter:All/BP+1 shit is definitely a case of them running out of time to properly test the late game fights or even distribute resists properly. I abused Bravebearer and the 100% status ailment character because none of my other strategies were working.
While we're talking about Second I thought it was so hilarious how the team is just inexplicably being buddy-buddy with DeRossa now
This guy was part of a death squad and tried to drug and rape Edea like a year ago, tops. And now we're happily having breakfast with him while he vaguely expounds on how amazing and powerful and useful somnial energy will be while not actually explaining anything about it like a fucking crypto rugpuller
She was english in the japanese version
Should've been japanese in the english version
I don't know shit about this game, nor do I really want to. Will the remaster lead to an upsurge of artists drawing a fat ass on that fairy on the cover?
do you want this guy to find a legendary breakthrough in magical theory or do you want him to slave away as a bureaucrat while his boss had him manually spin a windmill as a joke?
do you want the midget landlord and war profiteer ro own the fucking economy of a destabilized region (with nothing but a trust me bro that he will actually restabilize it and not line his pockets) or do you want to humor a torturer's weird fantasizing about her childhood?
do you want to... open a school... for girls and for boys or just for girls? we'll be beating the shit out of each other for this btw
Bravely Default makes my muscle memory set off whenever I play other turn based RPGs. I keep thinking how I need to save up turns to blast them on a powerful brave attack then forget that mechanic isnt in the game. At least they used the same system in Octopath Traveller
Bravely default and second are like my ex wife. I hate them as much as I love them. If you say something bad about them I will rush to defend them. If you say something good about them I will be the first to trash them.
Posting the most unbalanced class in rpg gaming.
I still enjoyed the ever loving fuck out of it. Living proof that too much balance ruins fun in games.
What bizarre feeling, my dad doesn't hate my mom but if she comes to visit and he is around he will immediately go out. He always avoids her unless she specifically wants to talk with him.
Eh, I found it boring honestly. It just immunizes you against everything for basically no cost.
Yokai in Second is a much more fun unbalanced as fuck job because the skills just straight up warp the rules of the game and you can get up to some untold levels of fuckery with them. Whoever thought of "damage is dealt as healing and HP is only lost via buffer overflow error" was a fucking genius
Which class was more unbalanced?
Thats if you use stillness cheese which should only be necessary for a single boss. Mechanically the class can also manipulate BP, protect against elemental attacks and also be a better white mage.
both of these weren't in BS along with arcanist
yeah that's fair i just don't really like the healer classes in bd1 all that much they never piqued my interest, i only ever ended up using the stillness cheese and the BP abilities. The aggressive classes always had more fun mechanics to play around. That said Exorcist in BS is really fun tho
Bravely Default 2 was fucking garbage
sold more than the first 2 games combined
Seethe.
Based
The entire point of this game is to make a well balanced party, spiritmaster alone doesn’t win fights. Both support and offense mechanics are what makes this game fun.
To be fair, the bones of the classes that didn't make in were recycled into better classes
Vampire was remade into Catmaster and not made a lategame class so you actually get to learn monster abilities organically
Conjurer was appended into Summoner because it wasn't doing much either way
Arcanist's spell-amplification gimmick was remade into the way more fun Wizard
Salve-Maker's item gimmick was done more interestingly with Patissier
Spiritmaster was divided into Astrologer for a general buff and support class and Exorcist did the BP manipulation gimmick in a more fun way
Second probably would have been unironically good if they actually kept Janne and Nikolai.
No idea why they went with what they did, felt like the story of that game was heavily changed more than once.
true but catmancer was a worse class than vampire
true
extremely true but arcanist isn’t really comparable to wizard in what they did
wrong, objectively dogshit opinion
completely wrong as neither of the classes mentioned do things spiritmaster does
I love the new classes second introduced but patisser was complete fucking dogshit.
Spiritmaster was removed and a nerfed stillness was given to the more boring bishop class.
Shh, Agnés is sleeping.
It's weird that they thought this game would be fun, but given all the shilling for it I guess they knew their audience.
shitmaster doesn't include bravely second
Thank you shitendo for helping normalize overpriced single game remasters
Remember when we had constant HD trilogies and shit? What the fuck went wrong?
Is there ever an iteration of Chemist that doesn’t end up being broken as shit?
Honestly I sympathize with your whining to an extent but can you at least point it at the correct company instead of making yourself sound like a colossal fucking retard? The game also does not cost $80. Use google before posting retarded shit.
Second already is unironically good. Yew and Magnolia are great and the new and improved Tiz is great, too.
Also, regarding Catmancer. Vampire is only better than Catmancer in new game plus. It is completely pointless in a fresh game.
Overpriced.
No one said 80 you fucking tard
Detractors are honestly hyperbolic about it, you start with the Airship for each "run" and can bypass all the filler bullshit from the first one, combine with the fact you can turn off random encounters (and IIRC puzzle solutions stay in dungeons so you don't have to resolve them) and that it is fully possible you have OP build you you can shave it off much faster then people act. it basically just fighting the same 4 crystal guardian bosses 3 more times each and do the Crystal Mini Game if you rush it. It is still monotone but people really are exaggerating about the "beat the game 4 times" thing.
Where did you pull this $80 price tag from? Nobody said it except you.
The story literally plays like a goddamn slice of life anime and the bad kind. Tiz and Edea coming back is completely pointless and they add nothing to the party synergy.
Catmancer is worse than vampire because it has to use consumables for its spells and it loooks fucking stupid.
tbf
normalize overpriced single game remasters
When was 40 the price for single game remasters? It was always 60 and then became 70 in recent years.
Give it to Yew or Tiz. The Female version does look stupid, yes.
Nintendo IS the fucking culprit. They sold the link's awakening demake at full price when they could have also included the two oracle games since both games share so many fucking assets. Then they did it again with Metroid Prime, despite there already being a fucking HD TRILOGY on the Wii
If it wasn't for Shitendo, we would be getting a HD remaster of both Bravely 3DS games, but nope, we only get the first game now
relies on online services they turned off
and Streetpass no one uses
It's bizarre how this low-budget 3D JRPG has a job system 100x better than pretty much any recent slop with a job system that Anon Babble loves to shill here (LaD RPGs, Metaphor, Octopath 2, Xenoblade 3).
They seem to have modified that to a point system or something.
Those Abilinks were identified by random NPC models as well.
Not really, pretty sure most JRPG enthusiasts noticed that Low Budget JRPGs tend to knock harder then people think compared to Infinibudget AAA stuff.
I found Patissier fun but I also found searching for Catmancer consumables fun so I admit I might not be the most reliable source.
Spiritmaster should have just lost Stillness and had Fairy Ward and Enigma nerfed a bit so it doesn't trivialize everything, it would be fine. We should have had it instead of Merchant, i fucking hate Merchant.
Oh, and Spell Fencer was remade into Hawkeye, I forgot that. I literally didn't use Spell Fencer once so I don't know if it was an improvement.
We should have had it instead of Merchant, i fucking hate Merchant.
You'll never be rich.
I have both too.
Thoughts on it?
Goofy as shit but honestly the concept was pretty fun for just one upping DUAL WIELD.
I want her to crush my head between her thighs like a watermelon, killing me in the process
It's just FF5, but worse.
Running around with no equipment but four spears flinging weapons at my enemies at mach 4 was hilarious
Extremely fun class and I love how it incentivizes you to care about enemy types and hoard a ton of weapons to customize your loadout constantly
and once more Edeass giant butt steals the spotlight
It's funny how it's the antithesis of the first melee class from the first game
Shiuld be on regular switch
he fell for the switch meme
lol
Steamdeckchads will get the game next year once it goes multiplat on every other platform. Enjoy your time bomb brick
Yeah. There’s only so many ways you can do le meta tweest. BD2 did it fine. Something I liked how it hinted Seth was actually isekai’d to that world, and English dub did a clever trick of him being the only character in the game with an American accent. In JP it’s implied he’s from Japan, yeah?
Oh and the biggest thing that’s an “Oh” to me.
Its not Gloria on the box art cover. It’s the final boss
The one thing I don’t like about the game is the boss counter abilities.
Supports are also really, really bad. Instead of a turn for 25% like in the other games, it is a turn for 7.5%. In addition to the fact that you are you going to get countered, that bonus is nowhere near worth it.
Ok bros. I've heard only good things about this game but I struggle with jrpgs because often the story is shit and the english VA is awful anime tier.
Is the story full of anime tropes and is there any way on a hacked 3DS to get a dubbed version with subtitles?
People can change
The overseas release contains Japanese audio
Don't know about BD1, but second does have an uncensored + undub romhack
do you want to... open a school... for girls and for boys or just for girls? we'll be beating the shit out of each other for this btw
How far away from this are we irl
And text too.
We needed more room for um...monk...and pirate........please understand...
Yokai
Double spell can trigger on its own activation
Patissier was ok, it came in clutch when I needed it a few times which I didn't see coming.
I think I kept Edea as a triple wielding Fencer for most of the game, fun stuff
I kept thinking she would fall off but somehow she was always doing silly amounts of damage, the endgame fencer skills were broken
There is nothing wrong with BD being $40. That's what it was on 3DS and that isn't adjusting for over a decade of inflation. Pricewhiners can eat a dick.
It's the kind of class that there's no real need for but the game is better for having it
once it goes multiplat
Every nintendo game is a pc game
Fencer was amazing, I kept it on Yew most of the time as part of his rivalry with Janne.
All I need is the uncensor, I don't listen to transpanese dialogue.
chibi shit
Do we know if the remaster is going to a switch2 exclusive yet?
Her thighs are scandalous.
All Square Enix needed to do was uncensor the thing and put in inside the cartridge. Boom it would probably sell more than the original. They literally fumbled the easiest 1.5+ million seller of the gen and it's tecnically not even here!
Why not a Remake with good 3D character models instead of chibi slop?
What else did they remove?
Because chibi triggers secondaries like you and keeps you away from our games.
Will they make it in a way where once the servers shut down you lose part of the game again? I didn't like the mobile game aspect of it
cool cover art. wish all those logos and age rating shit would be on the back of the box. but no one cares about physical anymore anyway so whatever.
Unlikely. FF3 3D, which similarly has online content that no longer can be accessed on DS, was changed on every other platform it released so that the content was local. For this reason, DS is now the worst platform for the game by far since you can't get ultimate equipment anymore but you can in every other version.
BD is a bit different because it is 3d and this new port will only be 2d. So it has that going for it. Also, the missables are shit like Firaja, which I'm annoyed I only have 2/4 on my save file because I was lazy, but isn't actually a good spell (too expensive).
I had an uncensored patch for 1 but I'm concerned that I got it off of 3dsiso which I don't think exists anymore
I also had to find a save editing guide to hack in the Japan exclusive costumes, but that's probably still on gbatemp
I will never find it not funny that the localization team is insinuating that American Indians are offensive.
I don't really care as much about the 1 censorship because hotpants are hot. But Second's is pretty egregious.
Mrgrgr
replacing the indian girl with a cowboy girl is even funnier in retrospect
Me personally?
weird dialogue from bosses you've beaten previously in the second half
secret ending punishes you for finding it
in the first and second game , some characters are buddy-buddy with each other for no reason , or their morals and goals are unexplained
people you've beaten appear in the 2nd game making you feel like you have done nothing
in the 2nd game the game wants you to get into dilemmas that are none of your business, it's not my say if the old man wants to sell his house or live there with his memories and i shouldn't get into his business
strange interactions , at times i wanted to violently kill someone but the main characters said " this is fine , you are cool" , at others the protagonists wanted to violently kill someone who i didn't perceive as an enemy , maybe i' just retarded but i really felt like the characters acted without reason half the time
in the first and second game , some characters are buddy-buddy with each other for no reason , or their morals and goals are unexplained
Listen, he may be a rapist but he's also a really good teacher
It is implied that you actually kill the asterix holders in the original world. So it is odd to see them back. That isn't always the case in the other worlds though.
Anyone who brainwashes Edea into wearing a skimpy bikini can only be the hero of the story
bravely seconds
They kind of slapped all the world together in Second, at best you are being told Denev brought them all back to life
I loved the game. Pic related was the terrible one. Game being written in meme language turned me off too hard.
please all purchase the switch 2 remasters so we can get bravely third and i can get more edea lee porn. thanks.

gentle penis hugs from a tiny fairy
Wait, it's only $40? That's less than I expected.

best song
Pole dancing with your cock
Monk was the best class.
People would've liked this if we could molest the fairy in game for being so bratty and betrayal prone. The devs fumbled.
it was garbage thoughbeit
octopath 2
im interested in the game but the lack of anything adventurous dull my interest.
pushing my rod in the fairy is my idea but knowing her true nature it might not be fun
I did.
But then Second fucked everything.
Then they made a gorillion gachas (of which some actually had good plots and should have been actual games) that all died in months.
Then 2 was utter shit.
Bravely is such an horribly mismanaged franchise it hurts and to this day I am utterly convinced it's been sabotaged by Square out of butthurt of it daring to be successful when it was not Final Fantasy and for daring to prove Square wrong about their no one likes or cares about turn-based RPGs memes.
That it's a keycard game when there's absolutely no reason for it to be, a fucking Switch 2 exclusive when there's no reason for it to be, completely kneecapping it's potential audience, and it happen a few months after Square said they realized exclusives are a mistake and they should multiplat from now on, is further proof of this sabotage to me.
One second. I may still have the links.

It’s a newer decensor patch from GBATemp that uses layeredFS instead of patching the whole rom.
There's uncensored romhacks on the hshop
The Only problem 2 had for me was that they didn’t change it so orders were given for all characters before the turn begins. It was just regular ass atb which ‘makes the default/bp system feel like a janky ass game.
I also think the UI was uglier but that is purely cosmetic.
Anon Babble is the only place blowing up about the censorship.
Anon Babble is the only game who gives a shit about this game lmao
You really think is gonna sell gorillions or something? Specially as a exclusive?
Anyone else here played with 3d on at max?
A whole ass screen
The hunger to feast again
Not sure if sarcasm or if you genuinely didn't understand the plot.
The twist is obviously but the game makes you replay the entire game like 4 times before it's revealed for no reason.
No! Complain about it!
I enjoyed it but that's about it. Played it and moved on to other games. Still feel like Ringabel got done a bit dirty in both this game and the second one considering that he feels like far more of a character than Tiz or Agnes.
That's cute but you only have that opinion because you're on Anon Babble and haven't looked at opinions anywhere else.
In hindsight, the most fucked up thing about the loops is how after the game ends the cast just goes back to their first timeline where everyone fucking died either by their hand or through circumstances.
And then Second happens and everyone is still alive and some are maybe maybe not and Ringabel is the only one who fucked off to become a time cop.
And then there's the sorry state all the other timelines before the finale are left in too.
It's really fucked up.
I thought it was boring. Shallow gameplay and story.
I didn't know of this game before the direct but it looks interesting. Might get it on Switch 2 if it is uncensored. The only problem I have with it is the fact that it is under Square Enix but I don't really care if it is a fun game. Other than this, the duskblood game is interesting, I like playing games with little girls in them.
I'm not the most pleased it's a key for a download, and that's no doubt some of the reason for a reasonable price, but given digital games are usually a very full price, I can't be all that mad, all told.
I do wonder if perhaps there might be tweaks to the second half of the game to liven things up. That'd be nice.
I wonder how the new minigames are going to go/where they'll be. Obviously, they'll never surpass Chompcraft, but that was never going to be possible.
Chompcraft was boring however I would play it for over an hour at a time
I'll never not be mad about how Second's story was just Geneolgia wank instead of hard focus on Ba'als.
Even worse is that the final dungeon is all about the Ba'als and yet you only fight them thrice in the main story and one of them is a old one. All the other Ba'als? Thrown into the Forte Lune minigame.
If you never touch that you'll have no fucking idea of what's going on on the final dungeon.
Utterly baffling choices all around with this game's plot man.
I don't think anyone would call it the deepest of games, but it's very absorbing. Goes fine on its own as an idle game, but if you get in and get the timings right...it just feels good.
I just fail to see the point of a cartridge that still requires an 11GB download. Just go digital only in that case.
SE fired the writter and put a "team of writters". Now i gotta wonder what kind of fanfiction writters from tumblr they hired if a group of them was cheaper than a professional one
Literally every Xenoblade game, specifically XC2
Is this game good? From what I've seen it's like FF3 DS.
The saddest thing is that one of the gachas actually take place in the future and you even meet Victor's daughter that's named after DeRosso's mom like he promised.
We seriously got robbed of punished Tiz. Him being all edgy and depressed because he woke up in the future and everyone he knew was fucking dead.
We could have had the same Deneb twist but instead is now her sending him to the past so he could live his life with his loved ones and keep fucking Agnes at the farm.
Such a fucking waste man.
had a dream about bravely default where it was post Tiz being lifeless, but I watched Tiz being in some weird state of limbo stating he wants to save the world again rather destroy it and the posessor gets fed up and leaves his body. sometimes the dream looks like Bravely Default due to the static backgrounds with the character walking across the fieldmap. any dream fairies?
Jobs function more like in FFV but otherwise FF3DS is pretty close.
Well, gamers do want physical versions of games...
Joking aside, there's a marketing standpoint of having it be on shelves and also, being physical, makes it essentially a digital game that can be lent out or resold.
But the question still remains that they can't be saving that much money on the cost of the chip inside, so why not just have it all there? Maybe there was some agreement to use the game as an example of the new type of way to distribute a game or something.
i knew something was off with Second. they literally rewrote the script after that bonus ending. also wouldn't our ringabel go back to his universe or would he stay in ours to be a spacetime police?
how come we never got the BD gacha games? I recall Brilliant Lights have new characters that might never see the light of day.
Never played FFV but FF3 DS is my favorite FF game so if that's true I might pick it up then.
I don't care what people say but BD2 is the only good BD game. The job system is BD2 is very good with more good job combinations. The jobs don't work as well together in BD1 and take way longer to level so it's harder to experiment.
Ringabel fucked off from his timeline to become a spacetime cop. Sure, he could have stayed, but Alternis being alive still makes things kinda awkward.
And I can't blame him because everyone on his universe is fucking DEAD. What I was talking about how the timelines are so fucked and even the main one is vague as hell.
fucking ringabel
Because they wouldn't have sold for shit.
There's a reason they died so quickly even on just Japan.
it was an ok 3DS rpg, but I don't know why they keep shilling it
what's that timeline where edea lee became a tyrant? i bet the sword of the braev would have restored timelines
It just means that you get to choose abilities from previously leveled jobs as opposed to just having the abilities of the current one available like in FF3.
why do airy and anne want to summon their demiurge?
and why was tiz's hometown the center of destruction?
They're their spawns.
It was just the spot where things go kaboom. Shit luck for Tiz.
For me it's how Edea is still hung up on Ringabel and has no interest in her world's Alternis.
you'll have no fucking idea of what's going on on the final dungeon.
No it's fine, the characters discuss what's going on in the dungeon each time they stop to have a fun little chitchat before the end of the world with almost no sense of urgency.
NO THEY DON'T THEY JUST TALK ABOUT FOOD
