A Square Enix has been producing roleplaying games for over 30 years. The first games in the franchise final Fantasy they had, in many cases, crystals as the central point of the story, and in others as sub-plots, but almost always present. Over the years, the company changed its focus and began to prioritize more action games, leaving games with turn-based battles in the background. The series bravely was born to meet this demand, and returns with Bravely default 2, which, for fans of the genre, is a full plate. 593b17
A tale among crystals 19345p
The game starts with the sailor Seth waking up on a beach after a shipwreck. He is helped by an old man and a young woman, who take him to an inn in the nearest kingdom. Later, we discovered that it was Sir sloan and the princess glory, who decide to go on a mission to retrieve the 4 crystals of Musa, their kingdom that was destroyed.
Meanwhile, Seth decided to see the place where it had appeared and there he knows Elvis e Adelle, who are on a mission to find the Asterisk, special stones that provide Jobs for whoever owns them. They decide to get together for a drink and head back to town. Upon arriving there, they discover that Princess Gloria has been kidnapped and set out on a journey to rescue her. And so begins the our working day.
Although this is the starting point of the story, we are discovering new things about each of the team . At some point, we found that Elvis he is from a wealthy family, but his actions are nothing like nobles, among many other things.
Each of the cities is filled with quest secondary items that give you items and money to continue your journey. Many of them are silly, like finding the lost child or cat of a merchant, or villager, to eliminating monsters and conducting hunts. This is to increase the size of the gameplay and help when training our brave warriors.
A nice thing is the possibility of conquering treasures with the game in rest mode. we can put Seth on an internet journey where he may or may not interact with other people and discover places or acquire treasures. This is relatively simple to do in Switch, since you just have to leave the game open, put the device in the However, and go to sleep. So, just rescue whatever was found in a little shop in town.
Speaking of treasures, one thing that helped me a lot was cutting the weeds along the way. With this, we can get money, items and equipment. I was particularly happy when I found a dagger that was many times stronger than the level I was at, and it helped me to detonate opponents. In addition, many times, between one point on the map and another, I used to find more than 2 or 3 thousand pieces of gold in the bush. I wasted a lot of time looking for valuable things.
The game's graphics are very beautiful, being one of the most beautiful I've ever seen in RPG-style games. It has a unique charm that goes against the quest for visual fidelity seen in games like Final Fantasy 15. I had the opportunity to play both on TV and in handheld mode, and I felt that in the second mode everything seems to match up more. On TV, the characters seem very large, slightly disproportionate, not that this affects the gameplay in any way, but that was my personal perception.
All the visual effects during the blows are a show on their own. The magic of the Black Mages grows exponentially in size, getting more and more clumsy. There are also the special moves we acquire after receiving the blessings from the crystals, and each of the Jobs it has its own movement, which is almost always a spectacle.
Knock, wait and start all over again 5g5m6c
The highlight of the game is its wonderful combat. For the most nostalgic fans, it's a full plate, as it has the best of turn-based fights with some unique pinches that make Bravely default 2 singular. One of these pinches is the possibility of “borrowing” or accumulating shifts. Let me explain: using a command, we can advance up to 3 turns, that is, our character performs four attacks in a row, or save the current turn by performing a defense, leaving this turn to be used when necessary.
This completely changes the dynamics of the fights, as opponents also have access to the same tool, and this can hurt us, a lot, when we are in the middle of boss battles. Because of this, understanding and learning the system is always a good thing, as it can make battles last a few seconds, or even several minutes, especially if we advance the turns of all our characters.
One of the highlights of the game is its system of Jobs. They are acquired along the way and each of them has its own way of being used. Having the right profession against a boss is essential. During my journey, I was training two characters with the same class, and the weakness of a powerful enemy was a simple blow from them, so I just abused the command and went for the hug. I didn't have the same luck against the previous opponent, and I had to spend many minutes doing normal blows until I finished with his life.
Classes affect many elements within the game, such as affinity for certain types of weapons. Don't expect to see the White Mage knowing how to use an axe, a bard with good control of a spear or sword, etc. That wouldn't make any sense. In addition, each of the classes can carry a certain amount of weight, which affects when choosing the best equipment, since many of them are heavier than the most common ones, and certain sacrifices end up being made – it is worth mentioning that, as in every RPG, this changes the attributes.
In short, fighting Bravely default 2 turns out to be quite a pleasant task. Enemies are visible on the screen, and when we are stronger than them, monsters often run in the opposite direction in fear. There were several times when I saw animals triple the size of my characters leaving to avoid a confrontation. However, if they are on the same level, they run towards us without blinking.
Play the sound, my minstrel 4ts55
One of the first impacts the game had on me was with the soundtrack, brilliantly composed by Revo, band leader sound horizon. He uses and abuses, I believe, the chime, and it has an effect on the songs that I like to call pirimpimpim, as it reminds me a lot of the fairytale songs I heard as a child. In addition, each of the game's regions has its own soundtrack, changing according to the characteristics of each location.
The voice acting in the game is amazing. Each of the voices matches the main characters and villains, and they also have different accents from many European regions. The language used refers to archaic English, which I don't particularly like very much, but I understand its use because it is a journey with a medieval theme.
Now, one thing that made me very upset during the journey was the time to loading between the world map and cities, for example. After you are used to the loading seen in Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, the delay of Nintendo Switch seems like a mistake to me. It may be an exaggeration on my part, since it's been a while since I played anything on the console Big N, but it is part.
Bravely default 2 471yo
For those new to the world of Japanese RPGs, Bravely default 2 it's a full plate. There are many elements to consider and battles can become real strategic challenges. The soundtrack and sound effects are a show apart and it's worth checking out the songs, even on a day-to-day basis. The look of the characters is very well done, the enemies and monsters have their own charisma, being also striking within their proposal. The story, although simple, is full of twists and very well done. If you are looking for a good game that will entertain you for many hours, then give it a chance to Bravely default 2.
