Bravely Default is a JRPG developed exclusively for the Nintendo 3DS. It is a classic RPG with some unique features that set it apart from other franchises.
The best part of the game is the battle mechanics. During battles, you can use the 'Default' option to defend and save an action for a future turn, or you can use the 'Brave' option to expend stored actions and take multiple actions in a single turn.
To gain an advantage of your characters' classes (known as 'jobs' in the game), you must use the 'Brave' and 'Default' options. All of this makes the game complex, but at the same time, it is easy to understand.
The story is actually quite good and I wasn't expecting that. The plot twist is really unexpected and makes you ponder how you didn't see it coming. I won't reveal too much, but it's fascinating to see how the game's main screen hints how the game will end since the beginning.
The downside of the game is how repetitive it can be. After some hours of gameplay, you will find yourself facing the same bosses you have already defeated. They will still have the same weaknesses and powers, but with slightly increased strength. You will encounter each boss at least five times.
Bravely Default is a good game that was forgotten in the Nintendo 3DS library. If you enjoy classic JRPGs with engaging storylines, then this game is a must-play. However, as I mentioned earlier, the game's repetitive nature may be a downside for some players, including myself.
