I don't have a delivery date on the collector's edition that I ordered on December 3rd

I'm going to blame SE then.

xopher that is the worst response I've ever read lol...

It doesn't answer shit.

(Also no delivery date on mine either! YAY)

[Doombear]

None here! Let's all band together in our hopelessness!

Their English was AWFUL. When I asked to be transferred to someone who actually understood my questions, they just tried to clarify. They then confirmed "You do not have to worry, you will get your item. Is there anything else I can help you with?"

I just closed the window at that point.

So finally beat the game tonight, got 70 hours out of it without grinding (and "skipping" some optional parts I'll explain below), double than I expected.

Pretty good game mechanic wise, though you can break it easily if you want to with some overpowered combinations if you try, I didn't though, kind of takes the fun away from the game, but very possible to do.

It's a pretty solid game, till you reach chapter 5 and

Spoiler: show

You start doing "timeloops" 4 or 5 times, I don't remember, you have to awake the four crystals and fight the bosses which are stronger versions again, plus all the blue !'s come back every time you do a loop, they become stronger each time and have different dialogue, I skipped them after the second time because it was annoying, the only time it's worth to kill em is the last, because you'll fight the whole division at once instead of different encounters for each of em (ie: Ominas, Barras, Holly and Heinkel at once) and you can steal/they drop some of the best gear, though it's pretty irrelevant cause you'll get it on the dimension hasp anyway

Wish the bonus boss in the dimension's hasp wasn't right before the last battle of the game, it makes me lose all motivation to try to kill it :<

why isn't it february 7th yet


tbh i'm almost as excited about getting the OST CD as I am about the game. the music in this thing is fucking phenomenal

Spoiler: show

[Serra]

Seconding the love for the OST -- I've been listening to it pretty much exclusively while working this week.

[Akiyama]

Live. Oh god jizz.

[Icarian]

Hah, I still have this one in my head cause I got stuck during that boss, hardest boss in the game for me by virtue of me being retarded, the fight is extremely easy but somehow it was flying over my head, being underleveled didn't help cause it could wipe my party in a single turn if I wasn't on default.


I also liked this one

[SephYuyX]

Music Box Music ftw.

[Hitoshura]

Requesting the 7th off, exclusively to play this all fucking day.

[Vuitton]

Totally psyched. Have 20 people in my demo town from streetpass ready to go start leveling up my town in the full release. :3

[Hitoshura]

NA Collectors Edition unboxing, I will admit.. the box material itself and art book look very lackluster, but I am happy to at least see the art book has a lot of pages. Soundtrack CD looks good, though too bad it's only 10 tracks. I hope the AR cards are at least worthwhile.



Reviews are up! More to come this week I am sure.

US Gamer: 5/5 Bravely Default 3DS Review: The Final Fantasy That Never Was
Silicon Studio and Square Enix's latest makes no attempt to hide its roots. Is this a firm foundation for a new game, or has the world moved on since Final Fantasy's PlayStation 1 era?

Destructoid: 9/10 http://www.destructoid.com/review-br...t-269560.phtml

ARGH. I still don't have a delivery date. I'll probably go buy it in-store somewhere and just return the copy I get with my CE.

[CoreyX]

Will it be on the E-Shop at midnight on release day?
