Bravely Default: Where the Fairy Flies


[Image: bravely-default-boxart-300x274.jpg]

Square Enix's FF spin-off for the 3DS which was released in the U.S. later than anywhere else so far.

Who else has bought it/played it/beat it?

How'd you feel about the stories/chars?

How was the gameplay/battle-system/exploration?
--------------------------------------------------------
This is currently my favorite of all of my 3DS titles~

I'm about the face the final boss x3
Does it have the same battle system of The 4 Warriors of Life? I wasn't really a fan of it, and Jesus Christ did it get hard. I like a hard game, but the battle system made grinding un-enjoyable

From the gameplay of FF 4 WoL I can conclude that the battle systems are vastly different.

Bravely Default's battle system is a bit of a mix of FF3 along with a new mechanic that allows you (and the enemy) to perform actions...

This trailer explains it a lot better xP



I can't really find any video that gives me a good idea of the combat system. It seems to be in a similar vein, but is pretty different. Eh I'll probably pick it up because I'm looking for a new 3DS game now that I've pretty much finished my living Pokedex. Ah, I forgot I do still have Mario and Luigi Dream Team to beat, but I don't have too much more to do in that
There's a demo of it out on the eShop if you want to give it a try.
Ah well that would be great, I forgot they do that sometimes
Level 22, did some backtracking in order to unlock the Spell Fencer class.

I heard Fira-boosted Stomp is useful where I have to go next.
So I have a download code for this.
But I don't want a digital copy.

Anyone willing to trade a hardcover physical version for my code?

I'll throw in a few bucks for shipping and to make up for the physical goods.

(Yes, you can transfer your save as of Firmware 6.x, iirc.)
I'm thinking about buying a new DS just for this game... Keep watching Rei play it...
This is one of my best 3DS games, and I have most of the hard hitting titles: (FE13, PkmnX, Loz:ALbW...and Theatrhythm FF)
@Jack, if you haven't decided yet lol



Well, I'm sold. My mom offered to buy me a game instead of sending me chocolate for Easter because I started a low carb diet, and I think I'll have to take her up on this
That sounds like a great deal xD

Has anyone else been playing/care to discuss progress/builds/problems/etc?

Man, I've just discovered the brokenness that Sword Magic Drain can be.

Dark Knight? Spam Dark Nebula (equip Dark Shields!) or Rage.
Monk? Spam Phoenix Flight.

In general, those three classes go together like bread and butter, kinda like Swordmaster/Pirate.
SM and Pirate eh? I haven't tried that one yet, though if it works as well as Ninja/SM w/RedMage support,

heck, even Templar/Ninja with RedMage support or possibly Performer (hoard brv points and spam You're My Hero) I'd see what I can do with it.
Finally got the game on Monday and damn I got hooked immediately. I haven't turned my 3DS off since I started playing so I can start rebuilding the damn town (lack of spotpass means it's going stupidly slow :/). I'm not far enough in to start really experimenting with builds yet (just got to chapter 2 this morning) but I just got the Spell Fencer and that's a cool class. I'm pretty over leveled because I cranked the encounter rate up to get more JP, so I think I might have to turn it down for a bit. Or maybe switch to a higher difficulty, because at my current over leveled state (27) the game is cake.
I noticed I was just about overleveled through most of the game, then I'd turn off encounters until the enemies would catch up to me lol

...Some of you guys should send some Rejuvinations :O


EDIT:

Updated to probably my most broken team

Tiz/Ringabel
Dark Kn/Spell Fencer
Natural Talent, Knuckle Lore, P.Atk + 30%

Healz + reraise/haste/slow

Edea:
Performer/Freelancer
Hasten/Slow World, (your choice 3 AP left)
Brave Suit Equipped
Sing My Hero then Mimic three times, rinse repeat, your party should never run out of brave points.

I have an alt/Magical version of this setup using two Conjurers with Summon magic (they replace the Dark Kns)
Conjurer/Summoner
Steady MP Recover, Prolong Support, Summoning Surge
just spam summons and specials, you don't really need to boost your magic since the each summon will be stronger than the prev.
Bothered to download the demo and... I have to say... I laughed...
Quote:Depending on how much of this demo version you complete, you can earn a variety of items for when you start the full version!
lawl.
Honestly, it's not even that big of a bonus lol, just a bunch of extra (early buyable wpns and items). Though in their defense they added about 10+ dmg , and I got the 20 villagers from the demo (via the glitch) which drastically sped up my norende rebuilding~
