Flawed, but wonderful game (Contains mild spoilers)

Originally, I played this game under a suggestion of a friend. And they weren't wrong with how good it was. Though chapter 5 and onward get very monotone with the main story that you'll probably only get interested with the side quest to pass time.

I'm not that interested with how the game's system goes as I'm more in love with how the world of that series is portrayed as instead so I can't say anything bad with the battle system. But the one thing I love is the language system where you can change languages to your preference and just enjoy the story, no matter which audio or subtitle you choose.

The world of Luxendarc is wonderful and very fantastical. I loved some of the areas there, and the music, it's Revo's handwork which made me enjoy this game and there's not a soundtrack I disliked.

And the characters are interesting with background motivations as well. (Sadly, you'll only find out more about this in further loops which may proof boring which is a downside for gameplay wise but quiet positive on the character's personality or background building.)

Another thing I loved of it, is that Bravely series always think of things never done in other games. Such as the player's actually considered an equivalent to a god by the character's of Bravely Default, not many games implemented that. And I can tell the studio Siliconera that worked with Square Enix for this game also worked hard to think of this feature and implemented the 3DS's system to full use for plot reasons, something I see, that not many games had implied.

Revo will be dearly missed for Bravely Second but hearing Supercell's Ryo's composition, I'd like to think that Ryo is also doing a wonderful job and I can say that Bravely Second will prove to be quiet a good sequel plot wise.

If you are interested with the system, you may or may not like it, but for a person who is more interested on the plot, I'd suggest you give this a try.
