Good Evening readers, today I'll be starting a weekly Bravely Default play through. To start out though I'll go into the amazing goodies the collector's edition of the game has come with. The game came with a pretty little art book, filled with great colorful illustrations, as well as some AR cards and a beautiful portion of the soundtrack on a CD. The book is a small little thing with pictures of the character concept art, from the main characters to antagonists and supporting cast. Haven't had a chance to try out the AR cards just yet, but the collectors edition came with a set of 36 cards that show little movies when put through the augmented reality viewer in the game. The CD holds 10 tracks of grand musical goodness from the game that are enjoyable to listen to. Enough about the collectors edition, let's get to the game!
So the game starts with an introduction to the main characters of the game, Tiz, Agnes, Edea, and Ringabel, giving a quick little cutscene for each of them, to give a little background on the characters. What do we learn about our characters? Agnes is a priestess or something, Ringabel is on the search for a hot woman friend and has amnesia, Edea is our epic female warrior, and Tiz is our sheep herder. Our first cutscene however ends with Tiz's village Norende being swallowed up along with his family and friends. Poor Tiz, it's quite unfortunate for him, but that's where our adventure begins, with calamity on our main characters hometown!
The Kingdom of Caldisla at night is a truly beautiful sight.
Soon enough we find Tiz waking up in a bed in an unknown place. After a bit of exploring we find it to be the kingdom of Caldisla. We have Tiz go about talking to the King, and are then sent running off to check on Norende alone. How very irresponsible sending the sole survivor of an event to explore a monster covered hole in the ground. Eitherway on the way, we go about and kill some goblins, zombies, and bats, oh my! Ad mist the killing, it's not long till we arrive at the hole in the ground that used to be Norende. Who do we find to be there? It's no other than Agnes who's saying a prayer or whatever to a magical crystal.
These Goblins are adorable.
Sky Pirates, don't look very pirate-y.
Norende is gone, and to top things off, soon enough we're attacked by Sky Pirates! Oh no, whatever shall Tiz and Agnes do! These pirates start to bombard the area with explosive cannon fire and send grunts to attack the two. They turn out to be really easy to defeat and in no time the pirates are defeated and sent to leave for restocking their ammunition. The duo leave the chasm and head back to Caldisla to tell the king about what's going on and such. Soon enough Agnes states that she wants to leave for some lake or whatever, Tiz being the honorable lad decides to guide the way, since Agnes apparently can't navigate anywhere. So ends our adventure for today though, Tiz and Agnes are off to see the nearby lake to see where adventure leads them.
