In fact much of the familiarity ofBravely Defaultmay appear in such parallelism and half-links.

The world inhabited, the systems used and the style of story inBravelyare quite faithful toThe 4 Heroes formula.

And there seems to be more than a hint of welcoming back.

But in doing so they came up against some fairly powerful bosses.

To name a quartet: Beelzebub, Lucifer, Asmodeus and Mammon.

Turn-based, jobs are still the driving force behind the jot down of attacks party members can unleash.

But with this publisher, you may need to play it to truly find out.
