Jesus christ the beginning of this demo's difficulty is rough, also seems like you level up jobs really fast in this demo, getting to level 7 (in BD it was ten) takes normally a lot longer. So far here are my complaints with the demo (haven't finished it):

I just want Bravely Default 1 but in 1080p, but the demo kind of soured me on it. One reviewer: quote:[Dungeons] With monsters packed in just a few paces apart, you might exit one battle only to swiftly trigger another, and by the time that’s done you’ve lost your bearings. Yes, there are ways of avoiding confrontations, but you can’t afford to do that often if you want to raise your skill levels sufficiently. This reminds me of Xenosaga, no random battles, but there are monsters in a corridor and they move twice as fast as you, so you wouldn't be able to skip them even if you wanted to.

The answer is "if you can see them it looks less bullshitty when you get a random battle to pop up", but then the developers do bullshitty things like not giving you an option to escape them, or making it sufficiently difficult like If someone is complaining that the game is too hard and when probed the group finds out he's been skipping battles, the group he's sharing this information is going to dunk on him and tell him he's "an idiot and no wonder you're having a hard time". It only serves to handhold people that shouldn't be hand held, and if they're just gonna write a review bitching about it, I feel like they should be able to retort with "actually, the player collected stats say you skipped all the mobs, so that's on you"

DeathSandwich posted:Yeah, FF5 has a horrible plot even by the thin standards of Final Fantasy. It's poorly translated, the plot beats read like they were written by a 6 year old (....and then, the evil tree god goes to space, and then everyone's dead dad is there for some reason, and then....), and it's incredibly short The battle mechanics are solid though. Had it not been for Four Job Fiesta I probably wouldn't of ever beaten it IDK what crack you're smoking but short rpg in a day and age where every rpg is a massive "crack open a tome, you're now doing homework assignments" a short fun campy rpg would be neat

OK, two hours in impressions: 1. they didn't fix the sword/grass cutting mechanic. It's nice to find random items, it still is too tedious to actually cut grass because it doesn't hit enough area at once. I know the 2nd demo claims to have fixed that, but I can't see a significant enough difference between demo 1 and the release of the game. IDC about hitting mobs early but I think either they should have taken it out, or increased the range by double what it's at now. 2. even on casual it's kind of a lot harder than I expected 3. gently caress wolves gently caress off, stop bumrushing me, I'm trying to do poo poo 4. oh that undulating tree mass is just a bunch of very strong random enemies that is even stronger than me after two hours of grinding? ok. 5. oh rare mob, it's harder? ok yeah I saved my game, wtf it one shot Adelle? I guess it didn't like me singing "Hello". OK run away I guess 6. what the poo poo is this tooltip thing that is overlaying other menu items instead of it not overlaying other menu items to show a description, this is failing UX Design 101, what the gently caress. Oh, click LMB, come on. 7. weight is stupid and whoever thought it was okay should be flogged with a wet noodle, especially since it doesn't SEEM? to go up with level up, or if it does, not fast enough, or equipment is generally too heavy 8. I think this kind of art style was more impressive and impactful when it was on the 3DS with the 3D effect, as a means of showing off the weak hardware of the 3DS in a cool way. Here, on the switch on a 4k screen, it just looks like them trying to summon nostalgia except it doesn't really look that improved from way back when. The character GFX is better than demo 1, but eh 9. no turn counter and a whole lot of "well this is a general showing of who could be next but you NEVER KNOW " is a whole lot of go gently caress yourself. Put a turn counter on in a turn based game or loving stop making your game. I hate this not being there so much. 10. But Thou Must Deal With It, Verily! Forsooth, this style of talking is literally the TAINT. UGHHHH 11. no auto battle button, but there is Press Y, do you want to re-enter the info from this character's last actions? y/n? additional set of button prompts that I can tell are gonna get on my nerves, and if anything probably is to dissuade you from doing cool manuvers like in BD1 where you could do a ninja/dragoon setup and just afk the superbosses. Yeah, cheese isn't "balanced" but it's a single player game, who cares, let me break the game over my knee, you aren't my mother. 12. graphics look better, lantern dynamic lighting causing shadows through trees is neato, though that's just probably some basic engine capabilities since it's running on Unreal Engine 4. 13. Night lasts only about maybe a minute tops, so it's a bit jarring for it to keep going between night and day so quickly. Wish it either didn't have a day/night, or it happened slower. 14. graphics are better but I might be expecting too much to ask for even 2x aliasing from the switch in docked mode. 15. going back to point 1 I could probably be less grumpy about it if the MC didn't turn around like he's got one leg buried underground and spun around faster, especially to turn around and face the wolves that just zoomed at you from off screen so fast that it's too late to properly react to it having happened. So far I'm kind of disappointed but, also I like leveling up and equipping the job classes and the grind so far isn't horrible, I don't think I'm going to cut any more grass in the game ever.

SyntheticPolygon posted:I can't believe anyone actually kept up with cutting grass beyond the first time you get like a 60g drop and realise it's not worth it. A few times I got several hundred gold, like maybe ten % of the time. I had about 6k gold but I spent most of it buying equipment, which I didn't end up needing much because I got it from the grass

Dirk the Average posted:For rare enemies, it's less about level and more about abilities. The fae critter up top is the easiest to kill, the tree has a ton of health but is vulnerable to poison, and the lizard is immune to a lot of early game things but folds quickly once you can get past that. Realistically, you can steal some pretty neat stuff from each of them, and for all but a few rare critters, what you can steal is the same as what they drop. The more of the rare equipment you get, the higher your power spikes, and the more of the rare monsters you can kill more easily. Of course, you need the weight allowance to use said equipment, and that's really where your level constraint is going to come from. I only just got to the desert town, so there's no thief skill yet

Dirk the Average posted:Fair enough. You might be able to take the fae critter up top, but I'd leave the other two alone until later. Rare critters aren't endgame challenges, but they do vary wildly in strength. It's always worth fighting them and taking notes on what they do and are weak to so that you can come back later when you have the tools you need. Yeah, I beat one with MC being a level 5 BM, but holy gently caress charm that took half an hour now I learn that body slam does like 800 per to her, and welp

ZenMasterBullshit posted:Them and any bee enemy just lets you you bully bosses to death. So manny bosses just paralocked from 100% to death. Blue is arguably better, because it's forever learned rather than having to go farm some mobs, but having to learn it by being hit with it is pretty irritating in a different way.

I would like them to make the rewards for chests unique, and reusable. Congrats, you found the Phoenix Feather, you can just res whenever you want (no changes other than it's re-usable, so it doesn't replace other, better, abilities) Or maybe with a cooldown timer? (I don't like cooldown timers that much) Hell, make an rpg with job systems but the only money you spend is on buying new absurd outfits and you build a house in the countryside you can decorate and plant things and undergo Rocky style training montages and maybe once, as part of the story, you have to defend your house from the Big Bad who wanted to ruin your house, but you defend it and everyone kind of leaves you alone to save the world after that.
