Just started and I'm curious on some things
Just started Bravely Default HD. I have vague memories of trying to play it on my 3ds back in the day but due to life stuff didn't have time to actually play it.
Anyways I'm having a lot of fun, there are a lot of mechanics that are interesting but I have a question about save/heal guy in dungeons. Does he have lore? I get the purpose he serves but it's uncanny that he happens to be in every dungeon before us before every big event. I'm currently speculating that he's "D" or connected to Ringabels Journal. I know that these questions can get kind of spoilery so if there's a big reveal I don't mind having these questions unanswered until they happen.
Also are there any ultimate weapons locked behind the "hidden" items mechanic? Early on in the game you get the tutorial quests to find hidden passages in the keep and hidden items in the inn. Like the seitengrat from ffxii? Is there anything important hidden behind things like this or are they mostly fun extras you get awarded?
Thanks again and is the Octopath series a good place to go after completing this?
