Do I need to finish Bravely Default to play Second or is this one of those cases where the sequel is self contained but if you played the first game you get some extra ~lore~ or whatever.

Edit. Eh I should just finish Default and then get Second later.

I don't know about that.

I guess i like the general gameplay better, them or bioware or cdredproject/others. I like the old turnbased FF games and I like the XV because it plays like mix of kingdom hearts and a WRPG. but i cant get into any of the FF after 7. except maybe 12.

That's because all Final Fantasies after 7, sole exception being 12, were pretty poo poo.

12 actually the worst of the post 7 FF's because it's a boring single player MMO you can set to play itself.

E: oh wait I forgot about 8, 8 is worse than everything

I hope Wario Ware gets more games. I love that series.

Nintendo really needs to try out another Warioware DIY-style game now that they've got their online poo poo working with Miiverse. The WiiU's tablet controller would be perfect for making game assets.

They completely summarize Bravely Default in the opening of Second, so it's not a huge barrier; but if you want to "experience" that ending ahead of time, you'll want to finish Default.

I always hated 10 and 13 the most. both games stories have there heads firmly up their own asses and nothing makes sense. and all the characters are unlikable as gently caress.

10 is actually my favourite, unclouded by SNES games nostalgia anyway, I liked all the characters and the story mostly made sense, though it was told in an occasionally confusing way. :shrug:

I already read the ending to Default and it looks like Second might be more fun overall.

Edit. I finally started playing Yakuza 5 and lmao at being able to read Initial D and Fairy Tail in the game.

I can understand not liking the characters, but what make 10's story more up its own rear end than any of the previous FFs?

anything's up its rear end compared to V, which is about beating up a tree wizard who's evil bc everybody kept sealing all the evil in the same tree

9 is really flawed but I really like it and it is a shame that they lost all of the high resolution renders so the recent port couldn't use any of the nicer quality renders

Vaati would be pretty similar to Wizzro, but I think they should add the dojo guy who teaches you sword techniques.

I know, I figured they could just average them out to the first one you meet in town, then have an ultimate attack where they all team up.

If they included any sword mentor type character, I'd rather they include either the hero's spirit from twilight princess or orca from wind waker

Good lord, of all the things you'd think they'd change in TP HD, I'm really shocked they didn't remove the thing where Midna yells at you if you try to shapeshift in front of an NPC. poo poo's worse than Professor Oak yelling at me about my bike.
