crispy4000 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 DQIII remake looks fantastic. Definitely seems like they hooked onto Octopath. DQ offline looks like DQIX imagined for today. Excited for 12, but they showed nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLeon Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Hmm. I’ve been (very slowly) playing through DQ3 on my phone. I’m a little tempted to just wait for that remake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paperclyp Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Changing 12's battle system makes me leery but at this point I'm just happy they realize how popular the franchise is. I love all things Dragon Quest, it just tingles a certain happy part of my brain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greatoneshere Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 A remake of DQ3 specifically is random but very cool. I'm sure a lot of people are hype for DQ12. I think the most interesting announcement is an offline version of DQ10 (too bad they are changing the offline version into super deformed art style for the graphics). The West could really use that release - drop it on PC you cowards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodger Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 I really need to get through DQXI while it's on GP but I just don't have enough time to play all the games I want to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your best bet is to find a fan translated ROM and emulate it. It's mostly music anyway, maybe you don't even need it translated. But yeah, it'd be nice if they brought it over given this slew of announcements! It's odd, the random games here and there in the Dragon Quest series that Square Enix chooses not to localize. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamer.tv Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Question - how good is the Dragon Quest game on the Switch? I’m kind of feeling a JRPG and either want to pick up the FFX hd bundle, this or maybe something else. Looking for feedback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xbob42 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Will it launch with orchestral music this time or will we get that fucking awful midi trash of XI? And even when it was orchestral it was bad. They need to let Soken do a DQ soundtrack, the DQ dude seems to have lost his touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you like JRPGs from the mid-90s to early 2000s - or say you like DQ8, you’ll adore the game. It is about as tradition as it gets, lots of side stuff to do and end game content, good characters, decent story. Man it’s good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved and beat XI but the music was awful. If XII is utilizing unreal 5 and has true beautiful orchestrated music it will be truly amazing.

The two JRPGs that I have enjoyed in recent memory has been DQXI and Persona 5. I played DQXI on PS4 so I can’t comment on the switch version but it’s a great classic JRPG type game. I like FFX as well. I prefer those two over Brave Default II, Octopath, and Xenoblade I & II. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greatoneshere Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Just note that the Definitive Edition of DQXI for PC/PS4/XB1 is broken. It is based off of the Definitive Edition for Switch version, which has worse resolution/graphics than the original DQXI release which only released for PC/PS4 in the West, which had much better graphics/resolution. Last I checked, they delisted the original version of DQXI from both the PC and PS4 stores. Was that issue ever resolved? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but that is some serious weaksauce. The original DQXI released in Japan on 3DS and PS4 only. We got an international release based on the PS4 version for PC and PS4. That version is superior than the Definitive Edition Switch version in every way except content additions. The fact they based every version on the Switch version is crazy.

Honestly, I did start to get a little tired of it, but finished everything. The friggin' 'post-game' felt almost as long as the actual game.
