I got myself Bravely Second End Layer and it's good! quality game only complaint is im playing it quite late so I'm stuck with the AI friends

which isnt a big issue

iirc i didnt summon friend that often in og BD

also i like the dynamic where last time you had two pretty well defined ships and the two reoccurring party members are from different ships

so instead of two pairs of idiots being bad at feelings we have one new pair of idiots, tiz pretending edea isn't making exaggerated mwah mwah kissy noises whenever he brings up agnes, and edea having some complicated feelings about her ex which are in the top ten list of things bothering her

but definitely not the top three

ringabel occupies several spots on the list by virtue of being two people

one of whom may be dead, as well as her father

by which i mean her father might be dead

not her father might be ringabel

i also like how yew knows agnes, braev, and alternis but as coworkers

everyone is cool senpai to yew

he doesnt know everyone is an eccentric dweebo

ok tiz is maybe less eccentric than yew is

hes genuinely cool if you don't look at his strappy sleeveless hospital gown

hes just fuckin clark kent is what he is

hes just a good honest farm lad who did very much save the world that one time and also has jedi powers

ok

not clark kent i guess that literally is luke skywalker

im gonna have to fight a catgirl and steal her hat and i am HYPE

probably i am also gonna fight this guy who ran into mags and was a snot about it
