Personally, apart from the texture of the rocks and ground, it only really looks marginally better. I think the problem is that they're releasing it too soon after the original came out. Remember Oot. We waited ages, so obviously it looked far better on 3DS. But it's only been one console generation for this game (basically). In my opinion, it's too early for a remake.
@MitchVogel Really nice article, good job! Just wanted to point out the fact that the Bravely Second system isn't actually new in this game, it was already in the first game.
@The_BAAD_Man Yeah I agree. A story mode would compel me far more to buy it. If I'm honest, at the moment it seems a little bare.... Just the same thing over and over in various forms.....
@Dimitk0o Oh, that's interesting. I haven't got it, so im likely wrong, but I remember reading on the internet that during multiplayer people were experiencing some lag. However, as @Serebii pointed out to me, this won't be a problem here, as there are only two fighters. However, from what you're saying, it seems there's no lag anyway
Hmm.... This could go wrong. I hear that Hyrule Warriors attempted this, and, well, let's just say there was some lag. I would love to see a story mode. That would probably compel me to buy this. Anyone know if a story mode is being included?
Happy holidays everyone! I'm having the best day ever, got Xenoblade Chronicles X Limited Edition (YESSSSSSSS) and Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam Bros. Words cannot express how ridiculously happy I am!
@the_beaver I was a bit surprised as well. However, I just remembered that inJapan, Xenoblade X came out in April, so its to be expected that it ain't in the top.
@Zekrom025 @Jordie When I first heard the music, i thought the same as you, but the I listen to it a bit more and TRUST ME, the music is really good (ESPECIALLY near the end)
@Squidzilla That's a little disappointing. I was hoping for another great plot, but oh well. Hasn't put me off the game at all tho. I love both series so this is like my dream. Looks funny (as you said), battle system seems great (like all the other entries and looks like great fun to play. So excited! Thanks for clearing up about the story
@KingofSaiyans No not at all- I'm merely happy that the game is a good one. Whilst I would have enjoyed it anyway even if it had got a low score, as I'm a massive fan of Monolith Soft games, I'm glad that it's been confirmed to me beforehand that it's genuinely a good game, with a great plot, world and soundtrack. I'm not being totally reliant on the review, I'm just happy that it's gonna be good. I've been waiting for 3 years after all!
YESSSSSSSSSSSS IM SOOOO HAPPY THIS GOT SUCH A GOOD SCORE!!!! I've been excited this since its reveal (xenoblade is my fav game ever). Can't wait for Christmas!!!
Man I'm sooooooo excited, a crossover of two of my fav series! Can't wait for Christmas!!! @Squidzilla Great review, cheers. I'm a little concerned about the story. Is it really simple, or has it got some good twists (no spoilers ) as the story and the twists are a large factor of why I love the games so much.
Wake me up when its Christmas. I've been so excited for this game since its reveal. The original is my favourite game ever, as the plot, world and battle system were all incredible. @ThomasBW84 Great review! Thank you for keeping up the hype! I am a little worried that the game won't be very plot based, and the plot will just be tacked onn and not very good. Is this the case, or do I not need to worry?

Re: Hands On: Finding Work and Adventure in Bravely Second: End Layer
@MitchVogel Yeah its pretty confusing, but it was in the first game. You can either put it into sleep mode or pay for more points (massive ripoff).

Re: Video: Square Enix Pitches a Famous Legacy in Final Fantasy Explorers Trailer
Hmm.... I'm not too sure about this. Kinda seems like a Monster Hunter ripoff, but I'm not that well informed.

Re: SEGA Reveals the Logo for Sonic the Hedgehog's 25th Anniversary
I really hope that Fire and Ice is not the 25th anniversary game. I'm hoping for something much bigger, ideally something like Sonic Adventure 3.
Re: Poll: What Did You Think of Nintendo's 2015?
Xenoblade Chronicles X + Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam = HEAVENNNNNNNN
Re: Pokkén Tournament Will Feature 2-Player Local Multiplayer
@Dimitk0o Oh, that's interesting. I haven't got it, so im likely wrong, but I remember reading on the internet that during multiplayer people were experiencing some lag. However, as @Serebii pointed out to me, this won't be a problem here, as there are only two fighters. However, from what you're saying, it seems there's no lag anyway
Re: Pokkén Tournament Will Feature 2-Player Local Multiplayer
@Serebii Ah yes that's very true, thank you. In that case, this should be a good solution
Re: Pokkén Tournament Will Feature 2-Player Local Multiplayer
Hmm.... This could go wrong. I hear that Hyrule Warriors attempted this, and, well, let's just say there was some lag.
I would love to see a story mode. That would probably compel me to buy this. Anyone know if a story mode is being included?
