Bravely Second: End Layer – A Grand RPG Adventure

Bravely Second takes place two years after the events of its predecessor, Bravely Default. The game begins as Agnès Oblige, the protagonist of the first game, is attending a peace treaty signing. Here, she has brought the two warring nations, the Crystal Orthodoxy and the Duchy of Eternia, to peace. However, things take a turn for the worse when the nefarious Kaiser Oblivion crashes the party. He defeats everyone in the room, kidnaps Agnès, and takes her to his impregnable stronghold, an unassailable fortress floating above Eternia.

You will follow the story of Yew Geneolgia, Agnès’s bodyguard, who survived the Kaiser’s attack. Beginning the game, you commit to rescuing Agnès from the Kaiser’s fortress. Along the way, you’ll team up with some familiar faces like Edea Lee and Tiz Arrior from Bravely Default. You’ll also meet new faces, your new companion, Magnolia Arch, who hails from the moon. Throughout your journey, you will be welcomed by a vast world to explore with dangerous dungeons and terrifying enemies.

Incredibly Diverse Game Content

Throughout your journey, there’s never a dull moment. You’ll always feel a sense of progression, whether it’s in the main storyline or completing side quests for job classes. Speaking of job classes, you acquire them just like in Bravely Default: by defeating key bosses and completing some side quests. When you complete a side quest, it will be a mini-boss; you defeat them, and you’ll acquire their Asterisk, which will essentially allow your characters to change roles. You can have someone be a swordsman or use dark magic, or even support your team.

However, in Bravely Second, there are so many side quests that you do for these job classes, which will make you have to make a choice in some kind of conflict or make you choose between one or two Asterisks. There is a way later in the game to get all of them, but that’s a bit of a spoiler, and I won’t delve into that now.

New Job Classes and Hilarious Moments

Bravely Second introduces a host of new job classes as well as some returning ones. Right from the start of the game, you’ll find the first few job classes you get are completely new, like the Fencer and the Charioteer. The Fencer’s special ability, Muscle Memory, retains the freeze state and effects from combat stances even when changing stances. And the Charioteer’s special ability, Born Warrior, increases proficiency with equipped weapons in battle by one rank with each normal attack. So, both of these new job classes are incredibly awesome and come with a lot of great abilities, and there are even more fantastic job classes in this game for you to discover.

This game is a lot of fun, featuring many humorous moments, such as when Tiz makes Star Wars references (“These aren’t the intruders you’re looking for,” “Oh bother, I guess I’ll just have to take the scenic route”), or breaks the fourth wall (“Hey, don’t give me that look! This is a terrible inconvenience!”).

The game introduces a new thing called “Tent Scenes” where sometimes at a save point, you’ll be able to talk to this little fox, which will allow you to set up camp and watch a little cutscene that further develops the characters, which is actually very fun since many times it’s overlooked. Bravely Second also features fully voice-acted cutscenes, which aids in character development as it truly brings these characters to life.

Combat System and Quality of Experience

Bravely Second uses a turn-based combat system just like its predecessor, which is really great because, you know, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” In battles, you can access two unique features in the game: Brave and Default.

So, before we talk about the Brave and Default features, let me quickly mention how the battle point system works. When you start a battle, you’ll begin with zero battle points (BP), and each action costs one BP, and each turn, you regain one BP. So, that’s pretty important here.

Brave allows you to use multiple BPs (up to four) to attack multiple times. For example, I could attack four times in one turn with 0 BP; however, I would be vulnerable for four turns because I would have negative BP, and BP is what allows you to perform moves in battle.

Default is basically the opposite. It’s essentially a defense. It reduces the damage you take during that turn as well as giving you an additional BP. So, you can accumulate up to three BPs. So, what you really want to do is Default to increase your BP, and then you can Brave a few times without going into the negative and being vulnerable to multiple attacks.

The combat system is very easy to learn, and with all the jobs and customizations you can make, it opens up a world of different strategies. Some new things introduced in this game are the “Fight On” system. Let’s say you win a battle in one turn; you have the option to continue fighting and have a chain of victories, which gives you an experience multiplier. However, this is high-risk, high-reward, as your BP does not carry over. There have been times when I thought I could get a nice XP bonus and ended a battle with all four characters having negative BP, stuck there very vulnerable, and the enemy took full advantage and wiped me out, and I had to start over from scratch.

Grinding levels in this game is not an issue because the combat system has an option to speed up and slow down, which I think every RPG needs. So, if you need to grind a few levels, you can set the speed to four times and zoom through battles, and if you’re in a tough battle and you want to think about your moves or pause the battle to read the effects of an ability, you can do so.

Graphics and Sound

Bravely Second: End Layer is visually stunning, especially the towns and backgrounds. They are absolutely gorgeous. When you stop moving, the camera will zoom out, and you’ll get a full view of the town in all its beauty. Throughout the game, you’ll sometimes want to stop in each town at least once for the camera to zoom out to see its beauty. The same can be said for the game’s soundtrack. There are times when you’ll want to stop what you’re doing for a few minutes just to listen to the music. Every RPG I play has an amazing soundtrack, and Bravely Second is no exception.
