While Bravely Default II is a fairly good JRPG, its full of old tropes and archaic mechanics that holds back what could be a greater and original game.

Half sequel, half spin-off, the mosou format is an absolute victory for the franchise.

Mixed - Ponpu
Dec 2, 2020

Even with a peculiar visual style and some good mechanics, Ponpu doesn’t stand out as a must-play game. It’s a curious reinterpretation of the Bomber Man formula with a focus on multiplayer modes, but it’s not enough. All style and no substance.

Technically is a problem, but it's so charming and surreal, a perfect follow up of the cult classic. Bless your soul, SWERY.

As expected, there's some beauty in Beyond Blue, but it falls flat on the creative and narrative side.
