I am still not done with the demo, and it is unexpectely long, but god dammit it, it surpassed my expectations!The combat is freaking amazing, blending traditional turn based combat with the system introduced in Bravely Default, the art style is simply gourgeous, the enemies are a call back to how the enemy art was done up until Final Fantasy 6(with a slight animation to make even more appealing), and the game seems to have a nice story!

My only concern with the story is that it will be 8 separate stories that only crosses with each other, but otherwise remains separated.Hopefully thats not the case, and there is a bigger plot, and when you play as everyone(or something of the like), you unlock the final part of the game.

But otherwise, this game got me by surprise.I mean, I already expected a great game, but this seems to be above and bayond!What do you guys think?What were your experiences with the demo?

I'm playing it now.



 

Ohhhhh, this totally slipped under the my radar. I want to try it out right now xD but I let my brother in-law take my switch with him on vacation since I wasn't really using it. Will it still be available next week? or is it limited time?

Its there for good as far as I know.I mean, they didnt say it otherwise.

 

But yeah, the fault is on you for lending your Switch right before a direct XD

I'm absolutely LOVING this game. It's really what I've been craving in a RPG for some time now.

OP, ALWAYS put a "see results" in your polls.



Bet with PeH: 

I win if Arms sells over 700 000 units worldwide by the end of 2017.

Bet with WagnerPaiva:

 

I win if Emmanuel Macron wins the french presidential election May 7th 2017.

It screws with the percentage.I thought about adding it, but choose not to because of that reason.
