Played a lot on Switch, through story completion and NG+. Bought again for Steam. One of the best modern JRPGs that honors the genre's roots. Has an absolutely amazing sound track, one of the best out of any game I've played. If you love old-school Final Fantasy (1-6) or Dragon Quest, I think you will love this game.

This game is probably a 6.5/7 out of 10. The story is a typical JRPG and weaker than the others in this series. The job system on the other hand is the reason I kept playing. The fun part for me was figuring out what was broken without looking anything up. I did manage to find some very broken builds but the amazing thing was after I beat it I did go look some stuff up and man people are creative and found builds I didn't even think of. For that reason alone I give the game the score i gave it. So I recommend playing it if you like turn based games with great job systems but if you are looking for a great story I would not say this is the game for you. Hope this review helps at least one person.

Great game and a decent buy on sale If you wondering about buying this game. Ask yourself these 3 questions. Do I like grinding out battles to level up my character/classes? Do I like challenging bosses? Do I like a battle system that is not perfect but allows me to do what I want? If you answered no, to any of these questions. Walk away, this game was not meant for you. It is a fun game if you like any of these aspects but mostly the first question. You will be grinding out a lot of levels for your classes. Every time you get a new one it starts at Lvl 1. The fun part is mixing and matching abilities from different classes and you're allowed to make some game breaking combos. I wouldn't have bought this game at full price but on sale its been great so far.

edit: It has come to my attention that this game was not made by the same studio that did Bravely, Second, and Octopath, but by a studio that made a mobile game. No wonder it's so different. finished the game in Hard mode and quite a bit of grinding, trying to get all the cards of NPCs i find and do all the trials, etc., and am writing this right after beating the game Note that I played Bravely Default 1 and Bravely Second: End Layer. ---- Reasons I find the game meh: 1. The lighting is really weird. When I first booted the game I thought it looked terrible. Combined with the upped graphics, it just looked like odd clay dolls in an animation Youtube channel. Took me a while to get used to, but if you're used to how much more blended the first two games were, this will be a bit jarring 2. I don't mind grinding, it's part of Bravely, and it's fun. What I DON'T LIKE is taking off the ability to save Party Sets into Favourites. WHAT THE FUCK MAN? IT'S LITERALLY IN THE FIRST TWO GAMES, WHY REMOVE IT? Grinding in Bravely is actually kinda fun, but switching sets manually every time you want to go from a Grinding Mode to a Story Progression mode is NOT fun. 3. Not much challenge once you're in late game. There are these things called trials which you can optionally do in the late game, and they are brutally difficult at first. But once you start grinding some job levels, you end up gaining actual EXP as well, causing you to be overleveled fast, and nothing in the late game scales to that. You just destroy everything, and that's a bummer. Would've liked some challenges scaled to Lv99. 4. No settings option to control whether to receive EXP or not. Again, the first two games have this. WHY NOT THIS ONE???? Yes I hate the fact they're now items you gain in later chapters. 5. The main character's name is Seth. Can games stop fucking shoehorning "this is your self-insert, you can name them anything!" when we can't even change their appearance or gender? It ruins immersion when the game itself won't speak our character's name. Should've made it like BD1 and BSecond's Tiz and Yew. 6. There is literally no connection to the other two Bravely games. I expected some sort of thread tying the world back to Luxendarc, but no. This game can be called literally anything else and I wouldn't bat an eye. I know Square Enix likes to do this kind of shit where it's all different worlds, but I thought Bravely would be an exception. Oh well. ++++ Reasons to play the game: 1. Bravely Default had great music imo, but Bravely Second's was... okay. In particular, BSecond's character Ultimate theme songs were absolute horse radish, and none of them were memorable. Thankfully, BD2's character themes are much better, and I really liked the cute throwback one of the final songs gave. Then again, Bravely Second had an entirely different composer, so maybe having Revo back is why it's so good 2. It's a fun jrpg, I like the combat 3. It was pretty satisfying to complete 4. I liked the story ==== While my negatives are blown out of proportion, it doesn't stop the fact that the game's still pretty fun and I enjoyed it, go play it! but you'll be a bit disappointed if you liked the previous two Bravely games.
