Greetings Earthling! Do you have any Zoom Boots?
Just got this game and am looking for some friends. I have no idea if people on the list still play the game but if you'd like to add me (please do) my friend code is 1177-7996-6552.

Thanks!

Dead weight, just like this post.



So is level 45-46 to low to be taking on the Behemoth boss on hard mode? It seems to be since he one shots everybody with the majority of his moves, and Roar will one shot everybody unless he's debuffed or i have protect up.

Behemoth is one of those dramatic jumps in difficulty that you either have to get a very tight team for, or just grind a little bit

Roar is some hot bullshit that can and will go two times in a row to just gently caress you

Did someone say the composer isn't the same in the sequel? Man, the music in this game was loving incredible :( I am finally coming to the end of the game I think - just reached what I think is the optional endgame dungeon. Maybe I'll even finish before the sequel arrives!

Unfortunately yes.

But at least some of the best songs from Bravely Default are still used in Bravely Second.

Hahahah! I remember linking to Terper a lot because his job class levels were higher than mine. Of course, I have now achieved the highest levels in all job classes so I might be this for some other people now.

And of course, Terper and I literally ending up mutually helping one another out in a freakin' game cutscene to make the final boss killable when we reached that point in our games. That was awesome!

It's delightfully shortsighted and insensitive to the point of hilarity. Solving one "problem" in the one way you shouldn't.

It's good that it's not a lovely effort at changing it up though.

A cowboy stereotype isn't offensive to a group of people with a history of being treated like poo poo, so long as it isn't just the cowboy spewing hateful speech towards the natives.

Equating a Native American stereotype with a cowboy 'stereotype' is pretty hilarious.

It's ironic because at one point in time America was on a mission to destroy all unassimilated natives and Cowboys were a large part of that effort.

Ever heard of the children's game 'Cowboys vs. Indians'?

It's odd treating it like a job you can just chuck on, but painting over it doesn't feel like a great solution.

Even if it's technically inaccurate, Cowboys have always been the traditional enemy of Native Americans "Indians" and considering that the latter were routinely slaughtered and Cowboys get attributed with that somewhat, it's short sighted even if it's not specifically what happened in real life.

Default had a handful of classes that tended to draw inspiration from other global cultures, such as Spell Fencer. If anything, it's kind of odd that the native role gets pulled up but nothing else did. I attribute that to American centricism though.

At bare minimum there's currently an ongoing debate over if it is offensive to use the term Redskin for a sports team and you really don't want to have that carry over to your game.
