Bravely Default: Flying Fairy

Nov 7th! 2 days after my BDay!

You're like six days late, kiddo.

I meant Feb 7th is 2 days after my birthday. And in response to the 'kiddo' part, is my excitement an indication of my age? Simple typo.

^A simple typo caused by being as excited as a school girl.

Any word on the price of the CE, or is it a pre-order bonus thing?

Gamestop has it priced at $54.99. No one else seems to have pre-orders up at the moment, so I'm not sure how accurate that is...

Given what happened with the Wind Waker HD LE, I wouldn't be surprised if the actual MSRP would be 49,99$ but Gamestop decided to add 5$ since they will most likely have it exclusively yet again, given their past record with Nintendo... Hopefully they will produce more of it this time, since Nintendo tend to highly underestimate demand for their collector's editions...

I am so fucking sick of the GameStop exclusivity bullshit.

This is one of those cases where I'd totally go digital instead of having to pay the GS tax.

Finished the demo. It was really fun and a lot more challenging than I expected. I didn't wipe but the boss fights were not just simply spam attack. The visuals are also nice. The music that was shown was great and I  like the town building aspect too.

My only complaint is that a lot of the costumes don't seem to fit the character. Knight looks awesome on all four and Swordmaster suits most of them but others just seem really off. I thought white mage looked terrible on everyone and Black Mage seemed off on the females. The White Mage and Black Mage female costumes try to go for a sexy look that kind of falls flat with the cute designs of the characters I like the Final Fantasy series red mage design but the look here just felt off. It would be a better fit for a Dancer class.

EDIT: Whoa, whoa, whoa. I was looking through the menu system and just discovered you can change the encounter rate. Increase it to high levels if you want to grind or turn random encounters off completely if you want to reach a boss at full HP or reaturn to battle.  This is probably all old hat to all of you but it really surprised me. I did not know anything about this game before laying the demo.

I'll be downloading the demo when I get home tonight. My boyfriend says it'll be right up my alley and I can't see anything to the contrary. Game looks good.

[Fadedsun]

The demo is only out in Europe or something?

[Starmongoose]

Nintendo love us more.

[Darilon]

Nintendo love us more.

Looks like the first sign of the apocalypse is upon us :D

[Starmongoose]

So, I played the demo.

Erm.

I think I'm in love.

Dammit, this is so unfair.  I feel like I've hyped this game longer than most.

I'll be in the corner, turnin' all green.

[Starmongoose]

Sorry Dice. D:

It's really good though, like, worth so much hype. Wow.

[MeshGearFox]

It could be worse.

It could have the NA released totally cancelled, only to get a limited run sometime later after a bunch of people complain, and then you have to pay like 80 bucks for it.

I'm staying the hell away from this thread once the game comes out in Europe.

But luckily, the users in this place are very mindful about spoilers, so...
