Bravely Default: Flying Fairy

FUN NOTE: Before I caught my typo, that first line read "4 Herpes of Light"

omg xD

Given your "scorching" dislike and impressions of the game, sounds about right. ;)

I've heard pretty unanimously it gets a lot of love.  I've heard the plot DOES lose some steam
minor, maybe, spoilers

Code:

There's apparently a time travel part that hits and you have to re-do some sequences

But with the way they're pushing merch and an all-but-confirmed sequel, I'd say it looked like it was a hit.

I'm looking forward to it being what looks like a modern SaGa2 (graphically/musically) and FFV (battle-wise).

Same here, especially the latter, seeing as Final Fantasy V is still one of my top 10 all time favorite RPGs. I do love SaGa artwork, though.

After my hatred for 4 Heroes of Light, it's going to take some convincing for me to pick this up.

For starters, there better not be any MULTIPLAYER ONLY gear. (Yes, that is where my hatred for 4 Heroes comes from. I have strange pet peeves)

To be fair though, at least the game was kind enough to provide a work around (even if it sucked compared to jumping through the hoops) to getting the multiplayer loot, which was a far cry better than what DQIX did for it's multiplayer.

Of course, 4HoL went and hid a class in said multiplayer shop thingie which was ballz.

The comparisons to FFV and SaGa 2 are piquing my interest, but Square's making this so I have completely confident that it will be poorly balanced, needlessly tasky, and have at least one core system that's completely broken/useless.

Really I shouldn't have mentioned SaGa 2 without stating I thought it looked kinda like it *graphically*. D'oh, d'oh, d'oh!

One way to find out, Mesh.

I agree, but where are we going to find some blueberry waffles, elephant shrews, a 9-volt batter, and a multimeter at this time of night?

[...]Square's making this[...]

Silicon Studio did BD.

I'm not sure how much involvement SQEX had outside of the funding and publishing of the project though.

Thanks for the info! But goddamn I wish I'd known this sooner. Woulda saved myself the trouble russlin' up all those elephant shrews.
