The game follows the story of four heroes as they set out on a quest to restore the four elemental crystals to their former glory. Along the way, you'll encounter a variety of enemies and obstacles, all while upgrading your party's abilities and weapons.
One of the standout features of Bravely Default II is the innovative Brave and Default system. This system allows you to choose between attacking immediately or saving your turn for later, allowing for more strategic battles. Additionally, the game's job system allows you to mix and match abilities from various classes, creating a party that is tailored to your playstyle.
The graphics and soundtrack of Bravely Default II are both top-notch, immersing you in the game's world and providing a memorable experience. And with multiple difficulty levels and a New Game+ mode, there's plenty of replay value to be had.
Overall, Bravely Default II is a fantastic addition to any Nintendo Switch library. Its engaging gameplay, innovative features, and high-quality presentation make it a must-play for fans of the genre. So why wait? Start your brave new adventure today!
I had heard of, but never played, Bravely Default and Bravely Second (the direct sequel to the original) on 3DS, and while I wasn't against it, it didn't really catch my eye all that much, either. When I first saw Bravely Default 2 in the Nintendo Direct, however, and heard someone say you could get into it without playing the original, I was pretty eager to try it out. I instead wound up getting it as a Christmas gift for someone else, but was able to try it for myself and wound up playing it more than they did (the difficulty was a bit much for them, but I went through the effort of 100%-ing the whole thing because I loved it so much).
Now if I could just get *them* to actually finish it.
There are over 15 different jobs to play, each with their own unique skills and abilities you can equip to come up with some crazy combinations of power. Many of them are relevant to the story, and a few are from side quests or hidden. There is also the “default” and “brave” command options (hence the game’s name) in which you can store up turns or use multiple turns at once to attack
The story itself is similar to the first installment: you’re a hero who gets swept up in the effort to save the world by collecting (rather than restoring) crystals which have been stolen and used to fuel people’s selfish (albeit sometimes starting with good intentions) wishes. Thus far, I am at the end of chapter three and will say each chapter’s story gets progressively better in my experience.
All in all: if you like classic final fantasy styled approaches to both combat as well as job roles, you will enjoy this game. The art style is cute, the world is vast, and the battles can be tricky if you don’t plan ahead.
The only negative thing I can say is that once you are in the endgame, the developers got cute and dragged the game out to where I was tired of the game and just wanted to finish it. Things like boss coming back to life when you think its dead (a few times) and multiple end credits scenes, and a you have to save at this special unlocked location on your TV screen to get to the true ending crap.
Again, I enjoyed the game but the developers dragged it out so much that it was painful towards the end.
There are also a lot of complaints about difficulty and grind, and it is early on, however it quickly becomes absurdly and purposely easy to break both the grind and the combat system to rapidly level Jobs. They even tell you how to and give you items you really don't need to help you rapidly acquire JP. Bosses are challenging, but they all have a gimmick and weaknesses which you are directly given tools to break. Ultimately it turns from ons of the hardest games to one of the most amazing and satisfying turn based combat systems.
Frankly, it is the best JRPG Square has put out in ages.
If ya enjoyed the original Bravely Default and Bravely Second, ya are gonna enjoy this game. But just keep in mind that there is a little less in this game over the ones on the 3DS. Seems this game was made with porting it to other systems in mind than be stuck on the dual screen type of system.

Si eres fan de la serie o RPG por turnos, este juego es bastante bueno. El apartado visual no me convenció al inicio, pero de rato me empezó a gustar. La dificultad es buena, no mucho, aunque los jefes se ponen complicado.
Historia y personajes están bien, me sigue gustando más BD1. Hay muchos "Jobs" para elegir, y todos los personajes empiezan con los mismos stats, así que puedes experimentar y ajustar el equipo como te guste. La música esta muy buena, mi OST favorito de la serie.
En cuanto al vendedor "Thegamerspot" deja algo que desear, ya sabía que el juego era usado (no hay problema en eso), pero en la descripción menciona que viene en buen estado y en la imagen incluso viene con su caja y cuando recibí el juego solo venía el cartucho en una caja toda rota de switch y sin carátula, así que deberían de checar muy bien eso, en la descripción ponen que viene en su caja y con carátula en buen estado y resulta que no.
