The game is set in a new world from prior games, on a continent named Excillant divided into five different kingdoms. The story follows four heroes: Seth, a mysterious sailor; Gloria, a princess on the run; Elvis, a scholar; and Adelle, a mercenary. Each character has their own unique motivations and reasons for fighting. Bravely Default II features the series' signature "Brave" and "Default" battle system, which allows players to bank turns to perform multiple actions in a single turn or to take defensive stances to build up their Brave points. The game also features a number of new job classes, such as the Beastmaster and the Salvemaker, as well as a robust crafting system that allows players to create powerful weapons and armor. Bravely Default II received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised the game's deep combat system, charming characters, and beautiful soundtrack. However, some critics felt that the game's story was unoriginal and that the graphics were a bit dated. Overall, Bravely Default II is a solid JRPG that offers a good amount of challenge and depth for players of all skill levels. If you're a fan of classic turn-based RPGs, then you're sure to enjoy this game.
