Bravely Default 2 is currently having severe performance problems on both Docked / Portable mode .
In fact the performance is worse than it was in the first demo .
Plenty of issues ranging from choppy cutscenes , very low res AA , low jaggy edges suppression even for a switch game .
I am sure some ultra defensive fanboi will come and defend the platform again .
Maybe dropping down to 500p and 20 fps isn't a big deal for some people . A lot of us still play old school retro games .
But that does not apply in this case because it is negatively affecting the gameplay .
Sometimes during a combat you pressed a button and the game skipped a couple of frames , cause you to " confirm " the  action without even seeing it .
I have had that happened a few times during boss fight and that was NOT funny .
Don't understand how people can put up with this .

Such a shame because other than that game is pretty solid . Just wait for a patch before you buy it .

That is because most reviewers don't really care enough to play it on the docked mode or they just don't care .
It is mentioned in some of the more technical sites such as this one .
And yes I have spent about 20 hours ++ in the game , the choppy frame rates are far too distracting especially if you ever play it on a big TV screen .

I supposed if you are going to play this on handheld mode only , they are more tolerable .

I'll be playing it on Switch Lite. Damn, now I'm thinking to wait for patch first before buying. hmm.gif
