The most obvious difference from the previous titles is that Bravely Default II is on a newer generation console. It's great to see that careful customization in order to create a solid party setup is still very important to succeed. As with previous titles, mastering each job for every character is impossible and it's much more rewarding to assign primary and secondary jobs that complement each other as well as satisfying the needs of your whole party. Can I keep that fellow as a pet?īravely Default II has 23 jobs to master including 4 new ones.

It's always more enjoyable when an RPG forces you to really make the most of each character's setup instead of having so many characters to pick from that some end up getting abandoned. While first playing Bravely Default II, I was surprised to find that there was only slots for 4 main characters until I remembered that the previous games had the same setup and the limit in characters actually works quite nicely with the vast amount of jobs available and with each character being able to mix and match from learned jobs. After deciding to team up, the 2 bump into Elvis and Adelle what a fun music mash-up that would be! Anyway, Elvis hired Adelle to help him on his journey to understand a book that his mentor left for him. First, we meet Seth, a sailor who finds himself washed ashore after a terrible storm then Gloria enters the scene who's a princess looking to restore 4 crystals that have been taken from their rightful place. We must move forward, not backward upward, not forward and always twirling towards freedom!īravely Default II is a sequel in the Bravely series but it has its own unique characters and story which sets it apart from Bravely Default and Bravely Second. The Bravely series has finally arrived on Switch but how does it live up to its predecessors? Adventure with me and let's find out.
