I guess I'm more surprised that other people are surprised we're getting a (non-MMO) mainline DQ game.
Like, we even got both remakes, and those were something of a long shot. :P

well we only got the dq7 remake after three years of begging. historically it's been a crapshoot as to if we get dq games or not. nintendo tried to push them in the late 80s and again in the mid 2000s but beyond that we only really got translations after some weebs at nintendo or enix convinced the higher-ups to take a chance. lately releases have been more consistent because it seems like square enix has accepted that the series will always be niche overseas and has adjusted their expectations accordingly. doesn't mean we're not gonna hold our breath each time a new dq game gets announced tho.
Very few people actually play and like, DQ, Tasty Meat. So most aren't actually in tune with the series and are mostly interested because it's ps4. They probably aren't aware of the remakes.
It's the same for the Switch crowd.
EDIT: Wait, it's not even on Switch? Then what the fuck are you people on about?
This is the first real DQ game in years tho.
When was the last Mystery Dungeon of any sort? It feels like it's been forever.
Etrian Mystery Dungeon (3DS) - April 2015
Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon (3DS) - November 2015
Shiren the Wanderer (Vita) - July 2016
Mystery Chronicle: One Way Heroics (PS4, Vita, PC) - September 2016
Unless this question was for DQ specific ones
How is Etrian Mystery Dungeon? That sounds dope as fuck
Jughead owns a Vita
amir0x owns a PC too, a PC used to download underaged pornography and let me tell you i would not be associated as a PC gamer after that incident

I'd take loads in rapid succession from everyone that's ever posted on this forum if I could have this in English now.
No 3DS version is surprising.
IGN says Switch version is coming "much later"
As for the Switch version, things are slightly less clear. "We are also developing the Switch version for Europe and North America," reads Square Enix's statement, "but development is expected to take a long time from a technological standpoint as well, so we still have a long way to go until its release".
What if the Switch version was just the 3DS version?
Pretty bummed that the Switch version is so late. Just don't have the time at my PC to play a long DQ game. DQ VIII is a personal top 3 game so waiting hurts.
I guess porting the PS4 version needs a lot of work because a port with a low Res and FPS wouldn't fit the series. Still, they had a lot of time already to rework assets. Guess it was their last priority.
PC version is more surprising.

Sounds like the Switch version didn't get started until after the PS4 and 3DS versions were released in Japan. So they've been at it, what, ~10 months now? The fact that they're so tight lipped and unwilling to show anything from it makes me feel like it's a mess.
Disappointed in no 3DS version but what can ya do? Maybe Nintendo is publishing that one and that's why we haven't heard anything yet.

Yeah, that what I was thinking. Maybe they couldn't get satisfying scaled down version of the PS4 version done and changed their plans. Some kind of 3DS version redone in UE4 maybe.
Anyway, sucks that the NO VERSION will get the Orchestral Soundtrack. Voiceover also sounds bland compared to the fantastic (if a bit divisive) VO of the PS2 DQ VIII. Steam version probably will at least get modded to use the orchestral soundtrack...

Buy a GPD WIN 2 and play the PC version on the go.
I can't imagine playing the same game twice, even if it looks different. So much time.

Hey developers, remember when Chrono Trigger was 20 hours long and still more varied and complete than your 50-200 hour clumps :doge Apparently not.

Same, if it was early next weekend I'd probably call the store that breaks street dates in my neighborhood and then spend Friday-Monday playing this game like a degenerate.
Do we know how this is on PC yet?

not sure if i should buy this immediately bc i fucking love dragon quest or should i finish mafia 3, horizon, and shenmue bc im already playing those.
lol the switch version. at this point they might as well wait a year or two and release it with bonus content for double dippers. assuming it's not canceled ofc.
While speaking during the Niconico live stream “Everyone Get Excited! Live Stream from the Dragon Quest XI Concert Backstage,” series creator Yuji Horii actually brought up the Nintendo Switch version of the game.
He said, “I can’t really speak about it, but it is progressing smoothly.” He then went on to say, “I have a feeling we’ll have a variety of announcements around TGS, but just how much we will say…” and stopped pretty much there.
I mean it plays great on PC so far?I've played for about 2 hours, and I was a bit too gung ho with my prior post. While I've mostly held at 1080p/60fps, however there have been some noticeable framerate drops (primarily when water is involved, which is odd since the water doesn't look special). I did lower the AA as I normally don't use it very often in games in general.
No fanfare on PSN about the release just some sort of shitty Destiny 2 preorder splash screen. This game was sent to die.FWIW, it's currently the best selling game on Steam.

I'll be super petty if people are suddenly like,"WOW THIS IS AMAZING" after years of shitting on DQ.
I'll say this, 30 hours in and I haven't had to grind at all. In fact I feel legit overpowered at this point. I think my metal slime kill count is only 2 and my lms kill count is 0.I played about 5 hours yesterday and I barely fight enemies at all. I will face an enemy if I haven't seen it before just to look at their animations and models (which are awesome). Otherwise I try my best to avoid fights. I did the first "real" boss before going to bed last night and it was a bit challenging, but honestly it wasn't that bad at all.
Seems like that hard mode challenge is where the game should have been? I'm considering starting over just to turn it on. Dont want to sleepily press X to win through the game.

Eh, these are never difficult for very long anyway.

Picked this up today, gonna specifically leave the US cover art displayed and use english voice actors. ARE YOUR JIMMIES NOT RUSTLED, WEEBS?
Hello. I impulsively bought this game because I'm rich and weak-willed.
I was really disappointed in Ni No Kuni II, mostly due to the combat being easy breezy and boring.
How's the difficulty in this one?
I’ve never played a Dragon Quest. Should I get this one?
6.5ish hours in and my only real complaint is Erik's english voice actor, and even that's more "meh" than "omg stfu"
Game got too easy after Gallopolis, Metal slimes everywhere and super farmable area with 12 groups of 4 wizard bros all standing in place around a thing, but I had to grind, gotta ocd farm mats, get +3 crafts on everything...
Still fun but I miss the old DQ cross a bridge and get fuckin’ rekt noob gameplay.
Yes, the Super Strong thing is on, this game would honestly be pure derp without it.

Question:
Sometimes you notice those little blue ghosts sitting around or walking. Usually close to a treasure. Are they just kinda treasure markers or will I get a quest/ ability 50 hours in that I need to go back and talk to each one of them?
Man why the fuck every jrpg gotta have the "oh here's a cute and precocious girl child but ACTUALLY she's far older, tee hee, wink wink nudge nudge, don't feel bad about your pedo instincts my weebs" trope

Let the weeb flow through you :rejoice
Question #2:DQ11 doesn't have JP voice acting.
How can I change the voice over to Japanese? No option inside the game.
The english is pretty damn amazing (Gemma's, Erik's) - as it was in DQ8 - but I played FF15 with JPN VO and I would like it here as well for the inner weeaboo.
im lvl 15 stuck at the boss in gallapolis
Not understanding the hate with the soundtrack. It's old school as fuck. I'm loving it .Game is a bit on the easy side but I'm having a good time.
so does the time run when when this game is in the background? finally got some teammates besides erik and im at almost 20 hours. im not rushing or anything but that seems excessively long.
I got the PC version so there's no box for me. :wagGiant story spoiler:spoiler (click to show/hide)World of Ruin 2.0. :lawd[close]

Sylvando needs to be more gay. Although once you get to his ship and meet his helmsman Dave I guess that's an appropriate level of gay for his character.

Sometimes this game looks like PS2's Dragon Quest 8 in HD, sometimes it looks like PS3's Ni No Kuni, other times it looks like a true PS4 title. However at no point in the game it is a big graphical jump or upgrade over Ni No Kuni. It is obvious that FF15 looks like a next game (PS5) title next to it.
However - it oozes charm.
The archetype DQ 2D monsters being shown in almost pristine, non-polygonal 3D are especially worth praising:

Weird after they gave the game a cover story. What did they say about it? Too traditional?
Some guy skimmed the review:QuoteThey praise its vibrant world and engaging cast, but they also call it old-fashioned, with story reveals that could be guessed by five year olds and quests that lack a meaningfully developed plot and character.
Where did u get that outfit?
Spend exactly 0 minutes 0 seconds in the Casino :P
Where did u get that outfit?
From Gondolia.spoiler (click to show/hide)There's an NPC on the left when you enter the city that offers to sell you a Cat Suit for 10,000G. If you turn him down and walk towards the dock, there's another NPC that offers to sell one to you for 12,000G. If you turn him down, you tell him someone already offered you one for 10,000 and he tells you that's his brother trying to undercut him and he offers it to you for 9800. If you keep going back and forth, you can eventually get one of them down to 1,000. You also have to buy the Cat Suit Hat from the regular armor shop for 1,250.[close]
The “second half of FF6, DQ style” results.
119 hours of crafting and farming and being OCD and Level 66 and Mordegon is down. Yes, I beat him on the first try but I nearly died often and needed to replenish MP and use Ygdrassil leaves midfight to save the run. Couldn't have crafted better gear, could have looked for more king metal slimes in the Fortress of Fear and / or farmed more seeds but... on to Postgame, another 30 or so hours and the other 33 levels. Or maybe a lot more as I farm more seeds than I need because lol why not.
That was a very satisfying dungeon, with a very well crafted boss fight. Dat DQ magic - it be here. Hard mode makes that dungeon just sing.

Do we know how well it's been selling? I hadn't heard anything.Steam Spy says between 100k and 200k for the PC version. Those numbers don't sound amazing, but I don't know what SE's expectations are. Maybe PS4 owners picked up the slack.

I don't think DQ will ever be that popular in the west and it's really because it's not the kind of game people outside of Japan want.
Persona 5 has done gangbusters. I dont buy that being a turn based JRPG keeps people away. Final Fantasy was turn based for a long time with one of the most popular installments being turn based. You'd be lying if aesthetics, subject matter, and presentation did'nt have a huge effect on the success of these games.
That's another flaw in your argument. Nier is an action-rpg. Comparing it to DQ is nonsensical. The obstacle for DQ isn't being medieval or kids friendly, it's that it's a traditional turn-based RPG.
If it does 500k minimum it will have achieved something no one dared dream even a generation ago.I don't think anyone will be impressed with a big budget Japanese game doing 500k. It hasn't been unheard of especially this generation. You want to knock out games because I guess they are more action based, fine but Yakuza, Persona, Xenoblade, and so on have done well this gen. But either way if a game looks appealing and is marketed well people will probably buy it. FF would'nt be popular here if that wasn't true.
I feel like saying western gamers are more superficial sounds a bit weebish.
And while I'm sure there are plenty of people (such as me) playing because it's now on consoles/PC thanks to yes graphics, but also production values.
Well I really doubt being a traditional jrpg is keeping people from playing Dragon Quest since a dating sim meets dungeon crawler can sell well. Two genres extremely unpopular here. Oh and Pokemon being what it is.
I don't even know how it would when the first thing people notice is visuals and presentation.
I wouldn't say DQ is a hard sell. It just needs to be on the right system for the west. Handhelds weren't that system.
Western console gamers are more superficial than Japanese gamers.
And we have come full circle.But the most successful installment is on handhelds...
Dragon Quest has been on handhelds since IX. That's about ten years.
Hence...
I wouldn't say DQ is a hard sell. It just needs to be on the right system for the west. Handhelds weren't that system.
Since presentation and visuals are the first thing you will see, why would western console gamers want to play IV-VI ds or IX? They look like blocks.They would if they looked visually appealing on handhelds.
Western console gamers are more superficial than Japanese gamers.
Emphasis on console gamers btw. Handheld and PC gamers are generally more willing to go with bad graphics as long as the game is good.The most popular games on consoles are Call of Duty, Minecraft, Fortnite, Sports games, and Rocket League. These are games that sell because of thier gameplay before thier graphics. You are wrong.
Dating sims aren't necessarily niche in the west at all.Um fuck yes they are. Those Vita visual novels of which Persona cribs from sell like 1,000 copies if they are lucky.
Western gamers are very much about "which character do you want to fuck?" or else Bioware would have went out of business a long time ago.Are you insane? Bioware games aren't solely successful because according to you dating sims are popular. They are popular probably because of thier gameplay and the entire choice driven story. This is a pretty stupid conclusion to draw from the success of Bioware. Waifu wars and dating stuff are all byproducts of these games becoming successful based on thier other strengths.
Any person who has interested in the new Persona fans knows that they're mostly full on Waifu Wars. Dungeon crawlers have had a massive turn around since Dark Souls became more popular. Dungeon crawlers are hardly niche when every other game on mobile and steam is some kind of rogue like. Your conclusion for Persona is illogical.Andy person interested in a new Persona knows it's a fucking jrpg. That's it. There's really nothing else to it. Dark Souls games are not sold as dungown crawlers, at least not like the ones Persona cribs from so you're wrong on that. Persona is a jrpg ass fuck series and your point is that somehow it can't be compared to DragonQuest because it mixes in these other things is wrong. It mixes in things that on thier own no one here likes. Visual novel dating things don't do well here. Jrpg dungeon crawlers don't do well here. According to you turn based jrpgs are unappealing. At the end of the day the first thing people will no is it's a JRPG, just like DQ.
Furthermore, Pokemon has been an exception to the rule for as long as its existed. Until recently, and I could be corrected, the average jrpg sold 200k maximum. Until recently, only FF, Pokemon, and KH were mainstream jrpgs. They were the sole exceptions to the rule. Every other jrpg fought for scraps. This is Jrpg sales 101 and I'm surprised you aren't familiar with it. Bringing up Pokemon makes no sense because it's one of the very few exceptions. And exceptions do not prove a rule.But that exception dosen't mean anything when we are talking about how the series can sell. Who care's if Pokemon is an exception. It got there thanks to Nintendo. Just like DQ9 was able to sell well thanks to Nintendo marketing. There have been more jrpgs that have sold well over 200,000. Star Ocean 4, some Tales games, Ni No Kuni, Nier, Valkyria, a few of the Xeno games, and so on. The question is why and how can DQ continue to sell. You seem to think it's limiting because of how it plays. I doubt that.
Just fuck each other and take it to dms fuck

What did you do to this thread Himu & Rax... f u c k y o u.Post game is short compared to the other two parts. I've been playing it ~20 hours and I'm basically at the end.
Beaten the game @ LVL 53 - with no (ZERO) skills learned :) only used 2 Yggdrasil Leaves - moving into post game.
I've heard that the post game is not really a post game but REAL GAME (main quest) and it makes 33% of the whole game.
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST, another 45 hours to go :(
I watched the big cutscene I missed and I didn’t think it was that big of acdeal. I heard people saying stuff that implied it somehow went further than you’d expect in a DQ game, but I didn’t see anything like that. I was expecting something likespoiler (click to show/hide)seeing good people die[close]
Which would be kinda shocking for a DQ game.
Why aren't yall playing this? Game is incredible.
Shame on you fake JRPG lovers. Dry humping Personas and Niers but disregarding DQ11? Shame on you.

Betting pool for Cindi's inevitable "this is not my DQ" post of disappointment is OPEN, lads.

I might not say that but if I don’t like this it will be my final jrpg. I relied upon DQ because it was something I could expect to enjoy. If I can’t enjoy DQ then it’s time for me to hang it up. But I promise you that if I don’t like it I’ll just state it and be on my way. I won’t argue for pages like usual.
IMO DQ11 is supremely conservative, archaic and a carbon-copy of the DQ formula which is now 30 years old. You cannot find a more DQ game post DQ8 than DQ11 (DQ9 was pretty whack). If suddenly you will find it... not fitting you that means more or less that you have outgrown the whole DQ formula, not only DQ11. DQ11 does not betray any single DQ hallmark. It follow them up to a tee.
At least the first half is linear, with provided directions for everything. The second half at least so far gives the impression of opening up a bit.
Not sure what is really discussed here but the game being more open world would surely help with western sales.
If you want wide open world games with lots of choice, play wrpgs. I think what you want is that weeaboo shit AND wide open worlds. This is the darkest timeline. You don't get your cake and the option to eat it, ever.

I bought a game to play DQ.
I bought a chicken sandwich and got a hamburger.
This game breaks several DQ rules that have been in place for decades. Sorry they trigger you but nothing I’ve said is wrong. You just don’t care. What you like about DQ is obviously different than what I like about it. That’s fine. But don’t tell me I bought something just to find flaws. That’s distinguished mentally-challenged.
you want everything to be 100% what you want and are incapable of taking 70-80% and calling it a win
Cindy, which mobile DQ would you recommend? I've beaten VIII twice on PS2 so that s out of the question. I'm thinking DQ V...
Cindy, which mobile DQ would you recommend? I've beaten VIII twice on PS2 so that s out of the question. I'm thinking DQ V...
Depends on what you want.
Want old school awesome with the gloves off that you can beat in a day? DQ1.
Want an epic story of how multiple individuals from faraway lands all meet up to find the hero to destroy the big bad? IV.
Want a plot focused romp about a boy that becomes a man, a husband, a father, and a king? V.
Want vignettes and class based stuff? VI.
II and III are great but I don’t recommend them for beginners. If you are going to play III do I-III as it’s a tightly connected trilogy.
Can Sylvando use two handed swords?
Ok since this thread is dead anyway some real talk why this game sucks:9.5/10
- you are basically replaying the same game 3 times. Same maps, same dungeons 3 times over (Act 1, Act 2, Act 3). Kinda awful.... lazy devs anyone?
- each monster has 3 different color swaps: Normal, Malicious, Vicious. LAZY DEVS.
- true last boss design sucks. It basically looks like this:
(https://abload.de/img/teletubisie9qdk7.jpg)
- Toriyama can't draw villains for shit. The only good villain design in this game is the "last" boss (not really the last boss....) but he looks like Dhoulmagus from DQ8 anyway so...... LAZY DEVS!
- game is easy as shit
- music sucks-ass. Which is weird as I've read that 90% of the music is from old DQ games... LAZY DEVS?
- MIDI music in 2018... no comment. LAZY-ASS KOICHI SUGIYAMA.
- the true ending and post-game basically invalidates everything you did in the first 80 hours. It paints the main protagonist in an awful, shitty way... what about his "friends"?!?!?
- no trophy/ achievement for "hard mode"
Should've made a 30 hour game instead of stretching it with repeating content - but alas, gotta have those 100 hours box checked these days.Some people do demand this, I'm sure, but I also think the higher ups there think it dissuades trade-ins. Though I don't know how severely they're overestimating people's need to finish their games.
I need to just go beat the game but I want all the accolades. I can't get all the accolades because jackpot in roulette and a royal slime flush are pure dumb luck and take forever. Wah.
God I love this game.
Kinda getting bored with it.This is NeoGAF
Bloated mess. Easily the worst Dragon Quest. DQ has never bored me before.
Got to the desert town.
The game actually becomes...a game once you reach Hotto. Now that the pace has slowed down and you’re not constantly being pushed forward, the game is lots more enjoyable.
Excellent game until the "choice" of "Act 3" which I won't even bother with any time soon.
Just finished "Act 2" on super strong which brings me to...Excellent game until the "choice" of "Act 3" which I won't even bother with any time soon.
Yep. Fuck this.spoiler (click to show/hide)I just spent hours perfecting builds and levels and setups to finish the game only for everyone but the Hero to be reset to Act 1? Fuck off. The ending was fine, Veronica should've stayed dead and the postgame content should've just been DQ3 nostalgia.
