>>11622699>Bravely Default,Even worse than Octopath, imo. It's popular to claim it's "FF5 but with an improved job system and better characters/story" but literally none of that is true. FF5 is a masterclass in simple-yet-robust turn-based, class-customized combat, as well as having one of the most thematically focused plots and well-bonded casts in FF history. Bravely Default fucks it all up royally by adding unnecessary bloat to every aspect, without either the cohesion or direction that makes FF5 such an enduring masterpiece.
>but I didn't finish that eitherMany such cases. I tried playing it when it came out and couldn't finish it, then I tried replaying it last year and ended up quitting even sooner. It's a bloated slog with bad combat that's just complex enough to trick people into thinking it's good. The pre-rendered backgrounds are pure sex, though, especially with the 3D effect.
Anyway, to keep things on topic, Bring Arts needs to get their shit together and make some FF5 figures. I feel like the cool way to do it would be to make figures of all 5 heroes in their "feelancer" outfits (and include the capes/shoulderpads so they could be mimes, too) then do a variant or two of each character in another job outfit. They could even get dirty and package them in pairs, I don't give a fuck. I'd buy them all, anyway.
