Bravely Second: End Layer

[Julian]

Wait what. That sounds really dumb. So you have to choose between getting all the jobs or getting good endings to side quests? >_<

No.

That was in the original JP version.

The "censoring" people are bitching about is that they removed that initial "qq" ending and just took you straight to the actual ending, so you can do and see everything in one playthrough.

Also, they censored a job replacing it with another job Kappa

Victory Streaks are quite hilarious. Still in chapter 1 and had one for 42 battles. >.> Got 32k pg, 24k exp, and 999 jp (this probably capped out long before this though).

Out of curiosity how did you manage that? Did you just get really lucky on "your party is feeling brave"?

Either the Accessories stack and its luck or one of the job abilities that gives BP can be used quite nicely together and I just can't remember.

[Scythiroth]

Yeah, it was luck on feeling brave. However, there is a place in chapter 3 I think where you can get infinite chains. Geyser Grotto maybe? One of the screens inflict Berserk and you can just set BP Recovery and keep going forever. Seems kind of pointless after chain 30 or so though since JP caps at 999 per chain.

Anyone else experience freezing in the game? Twice when doing chompcraft I go to buy mythril scissors and the game just hard freezes and I got to power down the 3ds.

[Scythiroth]

Only time the game froze for me was when trying to:

(Spoiler if you haven't got to chapter 5 I guess.)

Spoiler: show

Open the AR movie before starting New Game+.

Not sure I've ever had my 3DS freeze/crash in any game before this.

[Melena]

So still early in the game, how often am I going to be subjected to horrible ba'al buster jokes?

[Koul]

The whole game. also, gravy everywhere

[Karbuncle]

Honestly that was the only running joke that felt cringy as hell to me... but yah, it happens through pretty much the entirety of the game. Sorry D:

"coup de gravy" is pretty awful

[Tarage]

What's funny is no one says gravy outside of Magnolia in the Japanese audio.

[Madeline]

I think whoever translated this had an obsession with gravy and balls.

Been playing the uncensored game. I don't see anything about this that would warrant changing it so much in the US releases. Oh well, I guess.

[Karbuncle]

"coup de gravy" is pretty awful

That one I let slide because I felt like it was said... a lot less. But yes, I have to agree it was pretty awful.

[Madeline]

Oh, and if you want a body feel free to add me. I forgot that's a thing.

1736-4614-2092. Not very good, but will be eventually. Think my code needs an update on the BG list. Dunno though.

[Scythiroth]

Finished this game a few days ago and quite enjoyed it overall. Started off a little slow and sidequests were not so great but I think I liked it more than the first game.

Post game spoilers I guess?

Spoiler: show

Kind of hoping the sequel that was teased in the credits takes place somewhere else though (on the moon maybe?). Kind of getting tired of them reusing all the same locations and characters except for the few new ones in this game. >.>

[erbine99]

Is Bravely Second playable without playing the first game? Will I get the story?

[IceSylph]

Is Bravely Second playable without playing the first game? Will I get the story?

Yes, you just won't really understand the backstory of all the side quest characters, and some of the backstory of 2 main characters. Can definitely play and enjoy it, but I'd start with Default.

[Rocl]

Getting the final asterisk without playing Default wouldn't be nearly as awesome
