Bravely Second

I start this notes but i’m already 20 ours in the game, and i have a lot of thoughts on it so lets start unraveling them:
The gameplay is a development of the first chapter’s one, with the same core mechanics, same objects same skills and spells with some new job and content, it feels like beeing back home after a long journey.
The story starts slow and needs at least 4 to 5 hours to get engaging and challenge you with some big ideas or concepts.
Sidequests are rematches against old bosses from the first chapter, they show what those characters are doing after the warriors of light journey and posses you moral decisions in the quests context.

Yoko turns out to be a daemon that want’s to make yew revive the death of his brother by the brave sword. Yew has to face his old mistakes and decisions that cost him is brother. In the process Yoko reveals that she knew the pasts of all of the party members. Alternis shows up to save Edea from a deadly blow. It felt a bit odd and a recall to the plot of the first chapter where the fairy his the real foe of the story.
