More Bravely Default II! I've reached Wiswald, but this is a non-spoilery post.

It's good to be reminded of how fascinating the Bravely Default battle system is. Mechanically, it's the most interesting RPG series I've ever played.

Which is just as well, because it throws you into a lot of long, involved battles. Boss battles in Final Fantasy XII tend to frustrate me, because they're long and dull; boss battles in Bravely Default II are long and interesting.

Aww, I'm glad we got to see how Elvis and Adelle first met! That was a very cute sidequest.

I've got Elvis wearing two pairs of leather gloves simultaneously, and this is hilarious to me.

Ugh, Bravely Default II has a card game? I thought. There's only one good in-game card game, and that's Triple Triad. I'll finish the sidequest requiring B 'n' D and then never play it again.

I finished the sidequest and immediately played four more rounds, then ran into every corner of every town in search of more B 'n' D players. I've now played thirty games of B 'n' D, and I've reached the point of slightly resenting all this story and battling for getting in the way of my card games.

IMPORTANT BULLETIN: THE INNS ONLY HAVE TWO BEDS.

My headcanon for Final Fantasy XV, another game where the four-person party keeps staying in two-bed rooms, is that they cycle bedsharing duties so nobody gets stuck with Gladio every night.

I'm not sure they'd cycle in Bravely Default II, but I can't decide whether it'd be 'Elvis and Adelle in one bed and Seth and Gloria in the other', 'Elvis and Seth in one bed and Adelle and Gloria in the other', or 'Gloria gets a bed to herself, as the princess, and Elvis, Adelle and Seth all cram themselves into the other bed together'. Leaning towards the third scenario, as it's the most hilarious. Gloria thinks the others are being ridiculous; she's happy to share the bed!
