Are you a fan of the Bravely Default series?

I tried getting into it a few times. Had the original and its 3DS sequel. The whole chibi thing really turns me off lol. The battle system seemed ok, but not that fun. Never really got far into it. Now that the third game is coming out on Switch, and there is a demo, it makes me want to check it out again. But it seems more of the same, so I doubt I'll play it. What about you, SW? Are you a fan of the Bravely Default series? Any interest in the Switch game coming out?

I was until I realize the game requires you to play it multiple times in order to complete the game.

Yeah, I really enjoy it. Played the first 3DS game and really liked it but never got around to picking up its sequel. I’m looking forward to the new Switch and will definitely be picking that up.

I'm in the same boat. I'm buying a switch mainly for my family and looking for games I may enjoy on it. I'll have to give the 3Ds version another go..

What do you mean?!

@SolidGame_basic:

Never really heard of it but the art style looks super cute! Might check it out soon.

Damn, that sucks. In Dragon Quest 11, you get an ending on the first run. But you unlock the true ending in the post game. I think that's better. But I really don't like it when they play with endings like that.

I've never played one. I downloaded the demo today on switch. Looks ok, I don't think it will be my jam

The battle system was innovative, the artstyle was fresh. The first half of Bravely Default was one of the greatest experiences last gen.

It went downhill after the second half.

As mentioned, the multiple playthroughs to get to the end is the same reason I put down the game. I get it was for "plot" reasons, but they still could have achieved the same impact another way. This was just filler to lengthen the game. I did not play Bravely Second. I'm still excited for the sequel so I might give it another chance.

The first one was good, but for some reason the second one didn't caught my attention, If i had a Switch I probably would buy this new one, but definitely not at launch, unless I really liked the collector's edition.

I am a fan of the 1st game, less the sequel.

Though I will not buy the latest one on release due to bullshit nature of the games. You can end the 1st game at chapter 5 as chapter 6-8 was just bullshit backtracking to get the true ending which doesnt change much. 2nd game suffers from poor pacing and terrible translation. Also need to backtrack.

If you did not like it before do not get it. Stop trying the same things you do not like over and over expecting a different result. There are thousands of games out there to choose from so why bother doing that?

I for one LOVE the series so it is great for me.

Big time. Perhaps my favorite JRPG series.
