Haunter12O 03/21/18 2:22:28 AM #4:	99. Bravely Default Original Release: 2014 Developer: Square Enix Platform: 3DS Oh yeah, here we go. This one's going to separate those who want to keep reading the list and those who decide my tastes suck. Bravely Default is hot garbage. So hot, in fact, that I sold my 3DS and all the games for store credit soon after dropping it. You read that correctly: I sold a whole console and the few games I owned for it because of a single video game. I also don't think this game is as popular as it's made out to be, I just think those are the Nintendo drones doing their thing since it released for the 3DS. Anyway, this game sucks and has a massive identity crisis. First it tries to tell a semi-original story about time travel and identity, then it tries to be a Final Fantasy spinoff. The battle system is yawn inducing and about the only good thing about it is you can turn the random encounters off. Stacking moves and saving them for a later use? Xenosaga did it better. Job system? Nah, not even close to FFT, FFV, or even Zodiac Age. The dungeons are a complete drag, using the same three tunes and the same three tilesets for a maze of corridors and dead ends. The towns are lame, they're basically paintings and look nice but then you realize there's basically no exploration involved, and the world is pretty tiny. But the worst offender here is that shitty mechanic in the second half of the game where you have to rinse and repeat. Over, and over, and over, for what? Fuck the true ending, this is artificial lengthening of play time, and it's inexcusable. After having enough of the shit this game spewed at me, I facepalmed HARD when I reached that section, and decided I wanted a new console. Bye 3DS, hello PS3. But the final boss theme is good though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLBTIUzPpEQ" data-time=" <cite>Haunter12O posted [p:898199087] in Haunter ra... [t:76436991]...</cite> <quote>99.
