Yeah, I gave it to Discogentleman last night. I'm just glad the code didn't go to waste. At least you only have to wait till tomorrow now.

Loving the demo so far

Probably a strange question, but is it okay to play this demo if I haven't played Bravely Default yet? I liked the first demo and hope to one day get around to getting the full game, and I would prefer to not either have some of the first game spoiled by this demo or to not understand some of the demo because I haven't played the first game yet.

@Xyphon22: If you look back a page or 2 someone said that it totally spoils the first game. That's why I gave my code away since I've yet to beat it.

Well disregard, they said the second games opening video so as far as the demo goes I have no clue.

So far there has been some characters from the first game in it that you have to fight. Nothing major yet, but I am only 3 hours into the demo. Honestly, you would not even know that these characters were from the first game unless you played the first game.

Just beat the game and I absolutely loved it! Despite the slow start, it improved on pretty much everything in the original and the job system was still just as exploitable!

Yes, I like bears.

I beat the demo and I don't really feel it spoiled anything from the original game myself, since you wouldn't get the references unless you played the original. Final boss in the demo was a joke though.

Did you play through the entire original game? How does the plot in this one compare to the plot in the original, without any spoilers? While the original had some terrible, terrible pacing, the plot was actually pretty good, with a very memorable final couple of hours.

@Ralizah: Yup, played through the original twice, my second playthrough was finished only a few weeks ago to get ready for Second. Without spoiling anything, Second has quite a slow opening, but it picks up a bit once you get all the characters and start picking up the jobs, similar to Default. Overall, the pacing is a lot better this time, and there's no 'cycle' to go through thankfully. I'd say the plot is about on par with Default, with the story throwing some pretty clever twists in near the end (though some of these are admittedly quite predictable).

Characterisation is about the same as Default too, so while the characters are likeable for the most part, don't expect too much in the way of character development. Basically, if you liked Default, you'll like Second.

Well, that's part of what I want to avoid, too. If I am not going to get all the enjoyment out of it that I could since I won't get the references, I will probably hold off on playing the demo yet. Thanks.

@Operationgamer17: If it's the developer of the game making the changes, then they have the right to do so if they feel it makes the product better. From what I understand, the main change to the sidequests was mainly just one character's reaction after each one, and to be honest I can't say that bothers me at all.

From what I've read, in the original game, the character would doubt the choice made in each sidequest regardless of what it was, which led players to feel unsatisfied about the conclusion to the sidequests. The localisation makes the endings more positive, and as you get different jobs depending on the choices made, this means that you can choose the job you want without feeling like you've made a wrong choice, rather than choosing the 'better' option and ending up with a job you don't want.

Finally could preorder the normal version in Canada with amazon!

Best Buy Canada has them too. That's who I preorder through. I mean the limited edition looks nice but I'm not paying $120 (includes tax) for it.

They lowered the collections editions to $99.99 at bestbuy (sold out still), but too rich for my blood.

I preordered it. Where I live, very few copies of games come to stores and they are always sold out, so its faster to wait for amazon to send it to me.

I so want it but never beat the first one. That comes first and I doubt I could play both back to back. I just beat Dream Team and I don't need Paper Jam for a while.
