pretty sure it's already confirmed to be a wii game,unless they bail out

though it would be weird if they showed footage on the wii dragon quest collection for a non-nintendo game

iOS exclusive version would be hilarious, I swear the majority of self proclaimed DQ fans exist just because it's an exclusive.

No HD platform version would just confirm that Japan is still stuck in the 90s.

DQX is wii exclusive.  There was obviously a moneyhat involved.  I could see it going 3ds or WiiU but Mr Segata has successfully cast doubt in my heart about that.

if its on WiiU it'll at least keep Nintendo relevant for another generation, which is more then anybody else can say about their possible future plans.

3ds gets Pokemon Chrome.  WiiU will have New Super Mario Bros Mii.  There, at least a 20  million userbase for each system without much effort.  It'll definitely outperform xbox and gamecube.

wasn't there a rumour this was going to be heavily on line?

... on the wii??



The rumor is its going to be mmo-esque, which I don't mean in terms of online persistence but combat mechanics.

Without a moneyhat I don't understand how DQX wouldn't make much much more sense as another DS game or a PSP title.  I thought the major rationale for platform choice was install base, and the Wii has been tanking HARD for YEARS (outside of holidays).

I didn't play 9.  Can't see myself caring for 10.  As messed up as it sounds, the most entertainment I'll get out of this is watching the reactions from people who do care if it's announced for the Panasonic Jungle.

I think this is distinguished mentally-challenged.  No, seriously, Hori/squeenix must have downs syndrome.  This kind of game appeals to a much narrower demographic than the traditional DQ audience.  The Wii has severely limited communication options which would make maintaining friends a chore. 

I hope someone severely misinterpreted something because this whole idea is grossly inappropriate.  I can barely believe it.

The Director's speech:

You can have AI party characters just like IX.
The interface looks pretty similar to IX's with graphics like VIII.
You can cheer other people on in battle, boosting their tension (for higher crit rate, etc.)
If your character gets KOed, instead of going to a church, you can put up a flag and hope another player revives you.
You can also play as craftsmen in town such as tailor, blacksmith, alchemy, etc.
You can build your own home on the land, inside and out, and invite other players in.
Like IX, you apply skill points to learn new skills.
Monster name color changes to indicate remaining HP.
You can also put your character in Luida's bar for other players to use and gain EXP for you. (I guess one'd be able to hire some kickass characters that way.)

They claim to be working hard to get the game finished asap. So, no release date.

my main issue with online games of this type is that all of the visuals take such a massive hit to make it work; collision detection, clipping, animation, etc. They tend to look ass in that regard and I for one find that very off-putting.

I didn't play 9, nor am I a hardcore slimeophile, but I did enjoy 8, so maybe I'll keep an eye out. just in case.

OTOH it'll be crappy non-story party members and probably half-assed MMO-ish story like DQIX again.  Bleh.

I've never been attached to this franchise, but DQX seems like some squeenix execs imperative as opposed to a ... good idea. An mmo is a huge investment/risk, a huge prolonged commitment afterwards, and the genre requirements of online persistence and subscription fees I would think is at some odds with the wider audience of the franchise.  Hearing about a WiiU version makes more sense in some ways,  I have more faith that its online capabilities will be better, but will it need to be reigned back to maintain parity with the og wii users?

I kinda had DQX pegged all along as a NSMBWii type sequel, where you take an accessible franchise and make an excellent polished rendition with a modern sheen.  Dragon Quest sure did throw a curveball this gen.

Post by: EmCeeGrammar on September 05, 2011, 02:24:50 PM
It's an MMO that has to run on a system without a hard drive.  I wouldn't expect much.

Apparently it will use USB storage.  I think it looks like it does because it IS a wii game that has to show many many characters on screen at once.

Every smash game has significant differences.  Its not fair to dog a franchise that gets one installment every generation even though they could make a killing annualising it, yo.

The way the class system was implemented, the classes to choose from, the art (don't want no wide eyed winged animu shit). Though Valkyria had a lot of aspects that was used in Shining III (like the buddy system). The Valkyrie engine and the Shining scenario seem like a marriage made in heaven.

Shining could be cool.  Depends entirely on the art style there going to go with.  If it's crappy animu like the last bunch it'll be lame even if it plays well.  If they try something DIFFERENT that's more like old school SF it could be awesome.

Hm... well, I'll have to replay SF1 & 2, but they seemed like typical SRPG, in the vein of Fire Emblem, to me. I've never played 3, so you have the advantage there.

Back then it ma have been wow cool but... we are in 2011 now.

Fire Emblem is pretty much a modern Shining Force. What I would like to see is some sort of world map setup like II though but if they're using the Valkyria engine I'm guessing it'll be mission based.

Its amazing how much, visually, that shits on DQX. MMO vs. Single Player I guess but I can see a MMO on PS3/360 looking that good. Hilariously I think DQX on WiiU is gonna be hamstrung (as far as capabilities and visuals) due to being focused on the Wii and ported over to the WiiU.

One person even Bububu'ed about DQX being internally developed by callling Level 5 "just code monkeys"

how was smash bro's online, I never tried it

i was never able to find an opponent using the random opponent option and when playing with other people trough friend codes,it started lagging like crazy if it had more than 2 players and sometimes with only 2

and you can't communicate with other people,only thing you can do is sent short message's by taunting and only if you are in a friend code match

i don't get why people talk like that,monster hunter 3 played perfectly online and it was on the wii so i don't see why this game should not

Eh, imo they just have to get it to 1080p and put some decent lighting and it would look better than that.  The low poly models dont look that different from the wii game.

So, I come home from the best weekend of my life... to this HORRIBLE news. I feel worse by this than when I broke up with my g/f of almost 2 years. This is fucking horrible, I hate hate hate MMOs... DQ9 wasn't that great (probably the worst game in the series since 2), didn't most people in Japan hate the MMO-leanings of 9? Why would S-E even do this and alienate the fanbase even more??? This is fucking distinguished mentally-challenged, I was hoping for something similar to 8, with actual character development and shit... just wanted a classic turn-based RPG on a console, but instead I get a game in my least favorite genre ever (barring sports sims or racing sims)

I thought the Inazuma games were well regarded rpgs.  Hell, they sell well enough. 

Its wierd, I generally don't care about rpgs but I could see myself hypothetically buying something like a traditional 2d console dq type game if only out of curiosity for the 'prestige' of the franchise.  MMO doesn't appeal to my sensibilities.

I should check if Dragon Warrior is on the virtual console.

What makes the gorgeousness of that Ni no Kuni trailer hurt most is how mediocre the game is going to be.  Judging by the DS game and every other RPG Level 5 has made on their own, anyway. 

And BlueTsunami, with regards to Level 5's involvement with the DQ games, they *were* just code monkeys.  They contributed a couple things (like the alchemy pot) to the game design, but they mostly just did the actual code work. 

I'd much rather a mediocre offline turn-based RPG than the MMO pay-to-play crap DQX is going to be.
Title: Re: DQX: Wii(U) Online Grindan
Post by: EmCeeGrammar on September 05, 2011, 10:28:53 PM
For a rom dump service there's a lot of publishers who apparently think its not worth the 'effort'.  Then again maybe its stranded on the JPN wii shop.

edit:  I almost feel... empathy? for DragonQuesters.  The wait for the next numbered offline DQ is going to be long and full of doubt.

That certainly puts to rest "online is just optional" thing.

Maybe it will force Japan to care a little bit more about online.This is a pretty big bet by Square,nice to see someone doing something "against the rules",for better or worse.
Maybe they are trying to transform DQ into Japan WoW.Fanbase is there,but will they bite?

FFXI was big succes for SE.

Then they screwed up with FFIX somehow (by being typically Japanese and basicly releasing the same game in HD, 10 years later) so now they need a replacement cash cow.

@Oscar, I think thats exactly the point.

That screwed up precisely because it wasn't a god-damned thing like 11. It was like 11 and everything they had learned from it never happened.

It wasn't the same yet it was?  Isn't this a bit like what I said?

I thought the problem with FFXIV was that

me? to be fair i don't really care about it much,when they announced FF11,i simply ended up shrugging and played the next one instead

it does bother me a little though,dragon quest is a series whose whole appeal consist of being "classic" so turning into an mmorpg makes no sense,heck couldn't they have just made an original MMORPG at this point? it would be like if they turned etrian odyssey into a story-driven rpg... the appeal of etrian odyssey is being a wizardry clone so there would be no reason to do so

still i played a lot of monster hunter 3 and it was really really really good,like i have no reserve into calling it the best wii game i've played,so maybe this could turn fun too?
