>not a single person is talking about itkekdid the controversy around III HD damage to this game?the interview, the censorship.. was it enough for people to finally wake up
>>724784959>the interview, the censorship..Expand on that.
>>724784959Dragon Quest threads on /v/ fucking suck, no wonder no-one's talking about it here.
>>724785295https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YP_tD58w6io
>>724785342why do they suck?
>>724784959it's a 40 year old game
why did they even start with 3 and not just make 1 and 2 first?
Having a blast, loved 3 HD and loving this one too
>>7247856753 is the most popular and chronologically wise, it's the first of the trilogy. Also the reviews are questionable if you read them.
>>724785442Because it's 80% chuds who have never played the game pretending to care about body type A/B stuff because someone on Twitter told them to be mad.
>>724785675Sqeenix decided to follow game chronological order instead of game release order.Or, pragmatically speaking, DW3 was the one they needed to force the *least* amount of "AMAZING NEW CONTENT" (filler-padding) into. Like, Dragon Warrior 1 was a VERY simple game and rather short game. It was a pioneer that got endlessly aped/improved upon.
>>724786002Nta, but I've been playing dragon quest since the late 90s and 2000s. You only became a "fan" of this stuff because some youtuber told you check it out. Fuck off faggot
>>724786002>pretending to care about body type A/Bcensorship in general is bad.why would i need anyone to tell me that it's bad?
>>724784959the magic of the game is ruined with censorship, even if the game isn't censored the previous games being so ruins the vibethese japanese tards need to stop doing this
>>724785675there are multiple reasons, the biggest is that the point of these remakes is to streamline the Roto lore and tie them into the canon of the manga.The problem of starting with 1, as it was originally, is that you can't reference the events of 3 that come before it because it wasn't exactly planned to be a trilogy. 3 is a prequel to 1, but 1 wasn't necessarily a sequel to 3 originally if that makes sense. These remakes are done ensuring that they tell a continuous story all the way through if you play them as intended.I hope that makes sense without going into spoilers.
>>724786161Ive been playing before youtube was a thing. I'm just saying that you can tell most of the culture warriors that discussed the series when it became a talking point on twitter never played it.
>>724784959Whats wrong with it.And please don't just say MUH CENSOR whats legit wrong with it?
>HD2DFuck the guy who invented this. Genuinely fuck you.
It’s getting to the point where if I want to play an old game I’ve never experienced before, I’m going to pick the original version not just because of any censorship concerns, but because the older games are just faster. I don’t want to sit through a remake that’s double, triple, or even larger than the original because it gets padded with extra cutscene fluff and cinematics that drag on. I want to see a still image of a monster on my screen and fight it. I don’t want to watch it roar and flail around like it’s having a wrestling introduction that wastes my time. All these remakes exist to waste your time.
>>724784959Who buys a game and spends time discussing it instead of playing it?
>>724787967>waste your time.that's gaming in general though
>>724787967>It’s getting to the point where if I want to play an old game I’ve never experienced before, I’m going to pick the original versionmade me kek
>>724787967lowkey kinda a trvke unc, no cap
>>724785374Do we still not have "accurately" translated subtitles as the naysayers claim?
>>724784959It’s still got that faggy “quirky chungus” localization thoughbeit
>>724785442Nta but most threads on /v/ suck if they because schizophrenic people always mess up threads
>>724787707some dude its complaning the new content is just padding , although he only has like 14 hours in the game so i dont know how much of that is truthother complain that the text is too tiny?other than you cant lower the volume in-game?other that is a low effort gameis just very nitpicky shit
>>724784959>Another Shartenix disasterKEKAROOO
>>724785857same
>>724784959It has Denuvo so poorfags and turd worlders can't pirate it.
>>724788778You knows it’s amazing how many of them shit on games they can’t pirate or run on their shitty PCs
>>724788778why is it always denuvo's fault?I hate current /v/ , when they shit talk a game its always the same shit no one mentions the gameplay , music, graphics anymore when they complain is always the bullshit around the game
>>724789041Can't mention the gameplay, music and graphic if they can't pirate the game to play it lol
Only 8 negative reviews are visible on steam.>One is a guy getting mad the game is too hard after putting it on the "too hard" difficulty, doesn't even cover DQ2>Another is complaining the text is too small>Another is complaining there's no in game volume setting and they have to use the task bar and OBS>Another is an actual well constructed review from a JRPG veteran talking about how the experience is rather shallow and doesn't at all justify the $60 price tag
>>724784959people like you are unironically too retarded to talk about Dragon Quest so we just don't bother anymore, there's nothing to discuss with reactionary chimps parroting what their favorite grifter said
>>724789241>weElaborate.
>>724784959Its a pixel game from 30 years ago. What is there to discuss
>more generic 4niggas in a row slop>why is nobody talking about itbuy a fucking ad
>>724789316me and your mom
>>724784959Aesthetically it looks like shit. Stop this 2H HD bullshit already
>>724784959JRPGs on average have a problem with being kinda boringthese 2 are the pinnacle of boring JRPGs
>>724789241Pretending like this crap isn't affecting games is also disingenuous and faggy. People like you are why these things are getting worse and worse.
>>724789728SAAAAR IT IS NOT AS GOOD AS E33!! ACTION COMBAT NUMBA 1
>>724784959There are like multiple JP vtubers streaming this. Dragon Quest will never be popular in the west. The westerners that do discuss it are fucking annoying as with any jrpg
>>724789398Fucking bitch. I knew it.
>>724790138FFX is actually number 1
>>724790190but people loved 8 and 11?what did they do right?
>>724789169>One is a guy getting mad the game is too hard after putting it on the "too hard" difficulty, doesn't even cover DQ2LMAO, the Dragon Zombie duo boss fight is filtering so many people. I got fucking wrecked the first time I fought them, so I swapped around some equipment to mitigate the types of damage they deal and managed to take them down with two more tries. That boss fight, the one in Damdara to get Erdrick's Armor, and maybe Robbin' 'Ood (simply because he comes with two lackeys who can heal and he hits like a truck) are the only difficult boss fights in the game. I will say, though, that I got wiped out by random encounters very often, especially in the area south of Cantlin and in the DragonLord's Castle.
>>724784959There was no actual controversy, you have no power.
>>724790039Why then aren't things getting better then when people like you exist. Everyone you say is "pretending" just acknowledges that simply complaining online, anonymously no less, won't change SHIT in regards to localization. You've had over a decade to learn this and still you keep going through the same routine thinking eventually reality will glitch out and change everything
>>724790864The west has no power in terms of what these games become. It does however influence what the nips can and can't put in. Fuck off and hang on the rope like the rest of your axe wounded friends.
>>724790917Sure. Society changes slowly. Things that were "okay" then are becoming "cringe" or "bad" now. You keep trying to de-moralize, yet things keep changing.
>>724785342>Dragon Quest threads on /v/ fucking suckEvery game specific thread sucks, just take a look at the metroid thread.
>>724784959what went wrong
>>724784959Yeah /v/ said its woke so I avoided it
>>724785342every classic franchise thread has a dedicated schizo on /v/
>>724784959Yep, censored slop.
>>724791013>de-moralizingI was immediately and instantly demoralized a decade ago when I realized the anons like you who made the most fuss over a legitimate issue like censorship were captured enough by culture war politics that you would never accomplish anything and in fact make things worse
>>724791541I was a huge prog growing up. I didn't care about fags, race or anything. Then your types get upset at trump winning and shit up everything. Of course I care now. I've probably played and have worked around video games longer than you have been a "fan". You're types do nothing than conform with whatever is "in" and in turn ruin all media. You "demoralizing" crap doesn't work anymore. Even the average retard is tired of it. Look outside.
>>724791695Again. 10 years of this and you act like like you're the first anon to say any of this. Wah wah wah liberals are annoying so now I want everyone to die. You don't have a plan to stop any of this and you never did. What you need is a therapist to vent to
>>724792243Way to out yourself. I said I was a huge prog. I'm not even a trump fag. I hate how all you faggots play retard ball back and forth fighting stupid left and right wars
Should i wait for the DQ 7 Remake to come out or should i just play the 3DS version now?
>>724792438The vocation system in the remake looks like it might be a lot better implemented, I'd say wait to see if it actually addresses the previous releases' issues, and if it does pick it up.
>>724792438Like all things wait until release and see what gets altered/changed. The original despite what people say is a good time and the 7 remake is pretty good.
>>724792348He didn't bring up Trump, you did.
>>724788263Grifter. Hold up, I'm going to translate it myself with notes on the REAL meaning, chud.
>>724792960Try reading the post you're replying too. That'll probably help
>>724789397That happens to describe neither Dragon Quest 1 or 2, you don't know shit.
>>724786002I modded in male/female back.
Games been fun on Draconian difficulty but now I must level up from lvl 29 to 40 to get past the undead dragons
>>724789363>30 years agoAlmost 40, actually.
>>724793259The game treats it as such so that's fine. it sucks that we have to put up with this retardation. If some tranny wants to play pretend then select girl and that's it. Why did they rape all language instead? Unironically that's why most of my family are now hardcore republicans. Even my sister and her friends voted trump .
>>724788263>naysayers claimDidn't they have to publish a fucking apology for it? I don't see how you can claim that the subtitles are incorrect.
>>724793472It's in quotations.
>>724793472What was apologized for was for what was said, or what can be "interpreted" over these words.
>>724784959HD2D fatigue.
>>724789169>>724790797>Only 8 negative reviews are visible on steam
DQ1 and 2 are absolutely abysmal games. They only got big because they were novel at the time. Why the fuck would you willingly play this shit today?
All the complaining about the "chuds" alone isn't going to save this game, guys. We must buy.
>>724793574>>724793472Reminder that you can and will be sued for libel, slander, or defaming anything and anyone. That interview got quite big. Even in japan.T.know enough to be a n2 and have lived there for a while
>>724793653But I didn't mention anything about review count? I'm not the anon I quoted, I just saw the comment about the Dragon Zombie struggles and chimed in about it.
>>724786678This. III being a sequel to I was shoehorned in retroactively, and not in a good way that tied into the canon very well. It doesn't really, really matter all that much.
>>724793875prequel* I think my brain is irreversibly fucked up from alcohol.
>>724784959am I the only one thinking this game should be $40 max?
>>724793760too expensive for games I've already beaten
>>724793952You're not. I feel the same way about DQIII. Fucking Octopath Traveller shouldn't be $60 on Steam, either considering it's age and the fact that it's already made back cost from Switch sales.Modern Square-Enix are the biggest fucking jews, but at least they do discounts faster than most other companies do.
>>724793760Man I get that III is way more iconic, but that's a pretty huge drop compared to to IIIWhat happened?
>>724793952>40you got silksong for 20.why do we still want games to be this expensive?
>>724794030Yet you didn't complain about DQIII. I guess you hadn't beaten it?
>>7247941013 has some gameplay depth, 1 and 2 are very, very barebones
>>724794101It could be a whole lot of things. Reception from 3-hd, timing, price, etc. It's doing pretty well in japan, but expect a drop off even in the famitsu threads. The nips aren't as vocal as we are, but they weren't as pleased with 3-hd either. It'll still sell well though.
>>724794067>>724793952Yeah same for games like TIC and Reborn, like are you for real Square?
>>724794101I mean, just check the reviewsFor $60 they should have made proper remakes
>>724794212It's insane. I will give them one thing is that their ports are really good, and they do discounts on practically everything on sales. But often times it's not enough. They're going the Nintendo route of keeping decade old games at full release price forever. But unlike Nintendo they do allow for sales.
buy $60 game, or replay my copy of DQVIII I bought at launch?The choice is simple.
Censorship and dei BS for games that they shouldn't be ashamed of is a reason for sure. If we get mods to fix both of those issues I'll buy it ASAP.
>>724793712You can play through the first game in an afternoon and it has a breezy charm to it. DQ2 is a harder sell, because of the late-game difficulty spike and it has more of the 'go to this specific tile and search' aspect that the first game has but with fewer hints.But I wouldn't buy this to play them, the SNES ports are fine.
>>724784959dunno why 3make was so hyped, 3 was a shit game, 1 and 2 were even shittier games, why the fuck do they bother remaking the shittest of the series? why is enix retarded?
>>724794449DQVIII stands head and shoulders above all DQ games. None of them can come close and we'll never see another like it. They should have given up after that, because the closest attempt at following it up was XI.
>>724794560It's better that they leave Meena and Maya alone. It's better that they leave all the V girls alone.It's better if they forget those games existed.They already have good remakes.
>>724789316WE
>>724784959>>724793873this game sucks monkey fuck and has AIDSplay the originals you stupid nigger skins
The 1+2 remake is way better than the stupid 3 demake.
>not a single person is talking about itSo, just like DQ 1&2 before this came out?
>>724790138no he's right, but that doesn't mean fag33 is any better or less guilty of being boring fucking shlock, if anything it's the opposite since fag33 doesn't have the excuse of being the first of its kind
>>724784959I don't know, I guess they made a game with no audience. I own the NES games, the GBC versions, and have access to various flavors of translated emulated editions. This was never something that would be on my radar, I already have all the DQ1/2 I could ever want. It's meant to bring in new people if anything, but most younger gamers don't give a shit about the series or style of gameplay.
>>724792243>"annoying"what a euphemism for fucking literally every singke thing up with yiur faggy pozzed censorship nigger bullshit, fuck off you fucking troon faggot of a kike servant
>>724794821The originals are bad too.
>>724787967You sound like a zoomer. I respect your opinion more if this is the case.
>>724793952never pay more than 20 dollars for a videogameand never pay for a videogame with denuvo
>>724795012better than THIS SHIT that's for damn sure
It looks like they expanded the amount of content and enhanced graphics and mechanics alike just like with DQIII (where DQII even has a new playable character this time etc) but I think the lack of hardcore early Dragon Quest fans, plus the demand for $60 price points, is why its not a massive success in the West. I'm glad it came to PC at all to be honest, though Denuvo is fucking infuriating conceptually. Still I think there's only so much you can do to enhance DQI while still making it feel like DQI (ie there are no party members), so I think they've done a good job with it. I think it would have sold way more if they priced it max at $30-40 or so; they realized that trying to sell each one alone at $60 was not going to cut it as compared to III which was more advanced and a more standard JRPG party structure but they could go farther and ensure that each of them are a good bit cheaper and would probably sell better.
>>724784959>westoids dont care for dragon questwhat else is new?
>>724794649It’s my first time replaying it in close to a decade. I’m currently at castle Trodain.Having fun but the game is definitely a lot easier than I remember. Psyche up feels like a cheat code against bosses, but I do remember late game bosses are able to nullify your tension.In terms of a modern style DQ game I can’t imagine anything being any better.It maintains the core of the early games and adds some quality of life improvements that don’t feel intrusive.
>>724795249They have no excuse to not make it $40 when the yen is in the shitter. They know they're over charging.
>>724793090>re-reads post>both mention trump unsolicited okay now what?
>>724784959I'm playing it. DQ1 was fun for what it was and 1 party member was a pretty unique experience, it felt like I had to strategize a lot more than normal. There were a few times where it felt like I was left to the mercy of RNG though since you need to rely on Cop Out at times and it's not a guaranteed chance but all in all it wasn't too bad. Started DQ2 and got the second party member and it seems cool so far.
>>724796180>it felt like I had to strategize a lot more than normalI would almost agree but I personally found Cop Out undermines this far more frequently than reasonable. I think the game would have been a lot better if the skill wasn't in the game and enemy damage output was re-balanced around that. Or even if Cop Out had diminishing success rates like Protect in Pokemon. The fact that it's optimal to sit there and just redirect hits makes fights that could be a lot of fun with the number of skill available is unfortunate.
>>724793952>>724795385Start buying your games off of key sites. It was like $45 if you bought it off GMG
>>724796449good luck NOT getting your credit card info stolen
>>724785342I don't talk about games on /v/ anymore because jannies allow the shitpost to happen, now every thread is just some bot replying to itself, so why bother.I'm playing the game right now but I don't really want to discuss it here, same goes with any game. Only coomer threads are decent.
>>724796612yet here you are, talking about the games you are playing
>>724796448Yeah I can understand that. I usually tried not to use it because of that unless it was pretty much required since sitting there and turtling isn't very engaging. It did give me a big dopamine boost beating Knight Aberrant early with a combination of faerie foil, cop out, focus pocus and reheal by slowly whittling it down though.
>>724796593GMG is an official partner and gets their keys straight from Squeenix. Even official sites get release discounts, I haven't paid full price for new PC games in years.
>>724785374>Interviewer: There's a controversy over the costumes>Developer: Yes, apparently regulations exist and I was told not to be too revealing>Interviewer: I don't actually care about that and just want to virtue signalThe only one apologizing is that dogshit interviewer. She is exactly why gaming journalism has died.
>>724796774No, just complaining.
>>724784959>Have all of Edtricks gear.>Dragon Lord still fucked me up the ass.>My face when I had to just get lucky with multiple powered up Dragon Strikes while he missed each physical strike.I won with 5 hit points left and this fucker wiffed on two major attacks.God damn they did not balance this shit at all! He should not be hitting me for 200+ a turn at level 50 when I have seen people beating him at 36 and doing LESS.
>>724784959>did the controversy around III HD damage to this game?the censorship meme was never a problem.>muh censored pixelsnobody cared, the content of the game was good
REMAKE 9 WITH ACTIVE MULTIPLAYER NOT GAMES THAT DONT NEED IT
>>724784959I've heard even less of a peep about xilliahave jrpigs been left too overwhelmed or underwhelmed by the likes of FFT and Kiseki warriors coming out recently?
>2D-HDFool me once
>>724797591Is this on draconian?I finally beat the undead dragons after getting to 40Also how exactly do the sigils work?
>>7247878072D sprites in a 3D environment has been around since the early 90sDragon Quest has been using the 2D sprites in a 3D environment model since Dragon Quest 7 in 2000.
>>7247856753 is the more complete game. 1 is the very first JRPG so is super basic and 2 is excruciating difficult. So there was more work needed to make the games apt for modern audiences. With 3 all they did was apply some modern sprite work, add an additional class and add some additional collectibles and a some ESG mandated censorship and boom you got a modern JRPG.With 1 & 2 besides all of that they have to pretty much remake the games structure wise in order to make them more palatable for said audience. Even to this day the original NES Dragon Warrior 3 is very playable as that was the game that set the formula others followed. 1 and 2 not so much, they feel much more archaic.
Odd. I've been enjoying the hell out of this.I know classic turn-based RPGs aren't that popular unless it's made by the West anymore, but I find it charming. When you pick up the princess in your "big strong arms" and carry her all the way back to the castle while she's staring at the hero, it's cute. Classic knight+princess shit we don't see in fantasy much anymore.
>>724802846based princess carry enjoyer
>>724802846>back to the castleReal heroes beat the game with her.No seriously, look up how to do it, you get a ton of extra dialog with her
>>724801729No, I turned Draconian off at the Dragon because that fucker was going 2 turns in a row and also hitting me for 180 for physical and 120 for breaths.I was on normal mode.Sigils only work if you have your health below 50% and thats such a fucking shit show of an idea.The only chance you have after where you are, is to use Wild Side, take damage to yellow health and sigil abuse bosses to death.Its just like DQ3, any new bosses added are stupidly hard and unbalanced while the rest is fine until the final boss.
>>724804364>Sigils only work if you have your health below 50% and thats such a fucking shit show of an idea.It also can be triggered when you have Focus Pocus or Reheal active. You're only informed of it after you beat the game and load up the post-game save. Otherwise the tutorial only says there are "other ways" without directly telling you before then.I Focus+Pocused, Wild whatever, War Drummed, Souped-Up dragon hit skill the last boss a lot.
>>724804953>It also can be triggered when you have Focus Pocus or Reheal active.Im so fucking mad, when the hell did I get reheal!
>>724804193well shit.guess I'll need to do another playthrough at some point after I'm done with 2. Never played any version of DQ2 before.
>>724785374It's funny how they have been working overtime to wipe this from the internet.
>>724784959I went from things DQ1 was too easy to suddenly getting kind of fucked up in the second have. If you get hit by a status effect things spiral out of control very quickly. It doesn't feel like it's balanced around having only 1 character. It doesn't even matter though because thread game automates after every fight. I'm having a great time with it! I like what they added with the faeries. They're really cute in Japanese.
>>724806438I largely mostly negate it with Banishing Bell, until I start getting Erdrick equipment.There's still a very small chance to get affected, but I manage resources well enough to where even if I get hit by an effect, I can recover and finish up the boss fight.
>>724804953The Faerie outside of the crafting house will also mention that your sigils have a better chance of activating whenever you have support skills active, she just doesn't say which ones. Focus and Reheal were always active for me in boss fights, so I saw a good amount of Soul Sigil activations. The Sigil that makes you regen MP whenever you defend was fucking clutch for getting through the last dungeon on Draconian as well. I used the same method to take down DragonLord as well, though I used Muster Strength and the Sigil version of it instead of Wild Side.
>>724794101People interested in starting Dragon Quest buy DQ3People lose interest upon playing and don't buy DQ1+2
The fact that many of the complaints from III were improved in updates led me to expect that the same mistakes wouldn’t be repeated in I and II…To get straight to the point, I felt that they couldn’t even learn from the experience of III, and without harsh user feedback, they can’t even make proper adjustments.First of all, even an amateur would understand that I needs to be balanced with the premise that you’re playing alone.Simple losses in power can be chalked up to “guess my level’s too low,” but defeats due to excessive use of tricky tactics left me completely unsatisfied on numerous occasions.Since I’m alone, there’s no recovery option.Sleep, paralysis, and the like are bad enough, but by the endgame, even regular enemies start spamming instant-death magic in droves—I genuinely have no idea what they were thinking when they made this.Even if you read the boss’s patterns and act accordingly, you’d often get stunned by a roar, collapse, and lose.By the time you reach the final dungeon, you can’t even properly deal with regular enemies anymore.Despite fixing this in III, once again there are hordes of enemies with absurd durability and overwhelming attack power, making it unthinkable to take them on one by one with physical attacks.I’ll say it again: I’m playing alone.I really wish they’d design the game with that in mind.I thought the same thing with III, but how does a major developer with such a track record end up like this…?Even if a rookie made it, I have no idea what the people in charge of checking were doing—this level of quality is completely incomprehensible.
>>724806821Wild Side plus Defend after you get that MP regen Sigil is kind of nuts for long dungeons so MP conservation is not as hard. Just do it in not too hard hitting random encounters when you're getting kind of low.
>>724807076>but by the endgame, even regular enemies start spamming instant-death magic in drovesYou're expected to have Erdrick equipment by the time you're in end-game. They deal with insta-death. Never got killed once by them with them on.
>>724804364The dragon was fine on draconian if you equipped a dragon shield and had the fire breath resistant armor then pop dodgy dance to mitigate the phys side.I'm heading to Galens tomb next with draconian still on, doubt theres going to be as fucked up as the twin undead dragons were which required me to grind metal slimes to get 15 whole levels
>>724788778>>724789010>POOR POOR POOR POOR POOR >so what do you like about the game, anon?>POOR POOR POOR POOR POOR you should really buy the games you pretend to like anon, maybe your favorite companies would stop losing billions of dollars.
>buying squeenix slop in 2025the big japanese corpos have long fallen to westoid "consultants"I refuse to financially support this
>>724807545The Pearly Gates souped-up skill is insanely good on those two zombie dragons.Problem is the game does a bad job explaining who to use Souped-up skills other than the 50% health thing, and they did it on purpose. I legitimately disagree with their decision on that. Shouldn't just explained fully so people could engage with the mechanics.
>>724807545I had those things on, I almost beat the dragon multiple times but he always got a lucky shot in on me.>>724807840AGREE.
>>724807840>>724808046Also have to say with draconian on the reduction in gold is a bit too extreme, I definately did not find shop gear THAT expensive in DQ3 with draconian on but here just buying a single weapon at this stage in the game will drain my entire 12 hours funds I've earned
So they still didn't fix the names to be inline with the original Japanese version?
>>724784959I've heard the game is brutally filtering casuals.
>>724808221Honestly I never really had to buy gear, you can find overpowered stuff just laying hidden on the ground in those secret areas.I found some gear that was better then magic armor and had stupid high evasion, but breath attacks are hilariously bad.
>>724808393Lot of people not properly engaging with mechanics the game provides and expecting to just face bash everything, but since DQ1 is a single character, not engaging with the mechanics results in a much harsher result, and then they get mad, make their angry review over balancing, then ragepost online
>>724808393It's decently still difficult on Normal but crazy fucked on draconian once you're at least half way throughI have regain mp and hp on level up enabled to reduce the tedium, it doesn't make the game easier but it does mean less time spent teleporting back and forth to the inn.In the original game and the SFC version that I played the original game was 90% grinding, you simply could not progress through the game until you reached a high enough level to be able to cast the healing spells needed to survive in specific dungeons or boss fights, as outdated as 1 is I think they did improve this with skills like cop out and dodgy dance and a few others but sigils definitely need better explanation and I feel one more element is missing.Cant wait to get to the 2nd game, I'm expecting it to be on par with 3 now that the remake will likely fix up some of the egregious difficulty issues, new content, 4th party member etc to make it the best version of 2
>>724808393Not sure if they fixed 2, but it was notoriously hard for its time.
>>724791120If your game is not a nintendo ip you get the tendie pajeet doomposting and even shaming you for posting hot non nintendo girls
JPs are complaining that the new writing in the DQ II HD Remake is shitting on the MC and praising the second prince in his place and isn't in line with the original. (each HD revision has it's own writers, 1, 2 and 3 are all different) >It's formatted like a cuckold doujin RPG. >It's like a prelude to Narou [webnovels]>Is it a derivative doujin game?>This is seriously not funny. The writer is such a jerk. >The staff has a bad personality >Ah, the writer is putting down Lorelia because she likes Samar, a common behavior among women is to put down things that they don't like. >It's like I'm being forced to read some stupid Narou lol [webnovel]>After all, female writers and female authors are no good. >Square Enix isn't suited to making games, so they should just close the company. >Stop letting women write the scenarios. It's all doujin vibes. Bring me someone who can write properly. >They're completely trying to rile up the nostalgic old man now. Fan instigation is terrible. >From a company that could only do remakes properly to a company that can't even do remakes properly
>>724784959I like these games
>>724811543>praising the second princeextremely based
>>724808393it is because the majority of video game players are bad at video games
>>724811543Holy shit. That's bad.
There will always be mentally ill people defending garbage remakes no matter the quality, even if the original devs and original fans hate the remakes.
>>724812991but they're good
>>724811543link me a source nigga I'm not gonna believe everything niggas write on 4channel
>>724785342yeah any DQ thread is always filled the same nonsense because we're either heavily botted, have a gaggle of autists who need to push culture war shit at all times, or both.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STahp4WPCKEstill the best overworld theme in the franchise
>>724813387Matome blogs so it's roughly the JP equivalent of dramafagging leeches reposting content but both the original source and the comments are, unusually, roughly in agreement on this one.http://www.anige-sokuhouvip.com/blog-entry-82138.html
>>724784959Shart Peenix will always loose until they retvrn to turnBASED
>>724784959They're two old, archaic games, and the remakes did nothing to really make them appeal to normies. Of course no one is talking about two classics that are filtering everyone that hasn't played them before.
>>724784959censored slop deserves to fail
>>724806684Yeah I've had the banishing bell equipped since I got it. I can't imagine playing without it.
>>724813981>the remakes did nothing to really make them appeal to normies.good
>>724811543>>Square Enix isn't suited to making games, so they should just close the company.HOLLY FUXCIMG INFATHOMABLY BASTE I KNEEEEEEELL HOLLY SHOT
>>724813981i hate how it always has to appeal to normies.they always ruin the games for everyone if they do that(see censorship and changes in difficulty).just make those games with the genre fans in mind
>>724786002
>>724804364>he didn't use divide to have his 3 shadow jutsu clones also attack with him for 4 times the damage of any skillLOL RETARD
>>724808778This. There's several NPCs who even say "hey you know that you can do shit like ailments and debuffs, right?"
>>724808778I remember stopspell in DW1 being crucial, don't remember what the silence spell is called in the modern games.
There’s no 3 controversy, it sold really well, you retards really overestimate your impact on the industry
>>724811543Lorasia was always kinda retarded but well meaning though? Somebody post giganigga lorasia while sumaltria and moonbrooke are tiny and riding on his shoulders.
>>724813887fucking kek
>>724784959Have things been censored in 1+2 or are we still talking about the 3 censorship?The 3 censorship is fucking retarded btw. You can't insert Type A/Type B into a game with a bunch of gendered equipment, and changing "Tomboy" personality to "Tearaway" without a reasoning for why that would be a female only personality is the icing on the cake. You only acquire it from a book that still has "GIRL'S" in the name! For fuck sake!!
>>724816267They get weirdos to add new scenarios and get it wrong and then in translation they change things up, make up racist accents and change random words based on some tranny's sensibilities so by the time we get the finished work you might as well not read any of the text, it's quite hilarious
>>724815317It sold as well as a HD2D remake of a 30+ year old JRPG was going to sell. DQ has no branding outside Japan.
>>724790138>E33 out of no whereBased frogs really has mindbroken Tendies so hard
>>724816568*frog dev
>>724786002Yup, its this. Can only discuss shit on /vg/
>>724816418Well, I like the funny accents.
>>724784959As pointless as these weird 3d 2d remakes look, DQ2 is much more interesting to me as I never finished the game and its SFC remake, based on DQ5 engine, looks a lot rougher than DQ3 SFC. Stiill, I'm not gonna pay for it. And checkign what Squeenix changed with its ethics department and looking for mods also would just be a pain. So I did not bother downloading the Switch version, and even when paying I don't want Denuvo running on my PC anyway.TLDR too much to mind, I'd rather finish the original than try to play this filtered version.
>>724817329Oh wow this is half illegible but then again I did have a bottle of wine.
I don't buy anything from Square Enix anymore. The predatory Dragon Quest Monsters DLC was the final straw
>no DQ1-3 for PS4What in the fuck is S-E thinking? It's not like they're ignoring the console in general since FFT just came out on it.
>>724817727I still throw my money at SaGa
>>724784959Its excellent so far with DQ1. Its the definitive version of the game for sure, there's so many things to consider with modern DQ equipment and abilities that its actually engaging and fun to be solo, unlike the original where you're just attacking and healing in most fights and if that didn't work it meant your numbers weren't high enough and you needed to just grind more.
>>724817886this, I can't keep my PS4 as a comfy rpg machine if squeenix refuses to do sensible crossports.
>>724817886>>no DQ1-3 for PS4They actually are but JP only of course.
>>724786002*BRAAAAAAAAAAP*Leftist faggots are being fucking purged from gaming and I couldn't be happier, time to fucking suffer you cuck losers
>>724819101It had the shitty phone-versions ported over that Switch also got, but the HD2D versions of 1-3 are PS5 only on the Sony end.
>>724805819Same. 2 is an entirely new experience for me and I've been getting my shit pushed in a lot. I'm at the city in the SW part of the map and the random encounters at sea have nearly wiped me out. The enemies in the sea a few seconds south of Midenhall obliterated me, so I just made a mad dash down to the area I could see on the map to get it on my Zoom list. I've ran from encounters more times in the past hour than I did for the entirety of 1. I'll also have to look up how to beat 1 while carrying the princess. I imagine she mainly speaks in person to you at the points where she'd normally use the necklace to communicate. There's probably also additional dialogue at bosses.I do like the scroll system they have in here, especially in 2 since you occasionally have options as to who will learn whatever is on it. I kinda hope they keep this in either future titles or for the inevitable Zenithian Trilogy remakes.
Wild Side + Gigaslash killed the Dragonlord in like 20 seconds lol
>>724821610a shit nevermind I forgot about his second phase
>>724784959Dragon quest got woke and went broke
>>724821720Makes you wonder how SaGa escaped this fate. Romancing SaGa 2 remake had a bunch of sexy outfits for the women.
>>724820675>I'll also have to look up how to beat 1 while carrying the princess. I imagine she mainly speaks in person to you at the points where she'd normally use the necklace to communicate. There's probably also additional dialogue at bosses.It pretty much feels like a much more complete experience across the board. NPCs react to her, she reacts to a bunch of different events, has dialog with the Dragonlord, etc. Kinda makes me wonder if there wasn't plans to have her actually become a party member at some point.Well worth doing.
>>724821886>makes me wonder if there wasn't plans to have her actually become a party member at some pointI think they only did it to expand upon what the original game already did with altering some dialogue if you were carrying her.
I think this remake looks shit, mainly because the games they're remaking are also shit but if there's one thing I've really come to notice with JRPGs is that people who hate HD2D are always the most contrarian faggots alive.
>>724784959>http://www.anige-sokuhouvip.com/blog-entry-82138.htmlLmao. Apparently the whole game was deliberately rewritten by feminazis to piss off long time fans. The princess of Moonbrooke fawns over the hero in the original and acts indifferent towards him in the feminist rewrite. And everyone throwout the game including npcs shits all over him. Just LMFAO. They pissed off the boomers who were the only ones buying the fucking games.
>>724794183I thought 1-3 all used the same systems?
>>724822757Makes sense to me.Imagine being a hero's descendant who can't can't magic. lmao what a loser.
>>724820675You can't beat the game with the princess or without saving her because you can't go past the new illusion forest without her helping you from the castle.
>>724789363The playstation and saturn were out 30 years ago zoomie.
>>724795005>>724798780What was censored in DQ1&2R ackshually? Nothing to censor in 1&2. As Takaichi became new PM to stop Ishiba's censorship and return bikinis to Japanese console game. >>724807776But Takaichi is normalizing them and stopping Ishiba's censorship to return bikinis to Japanese console game again. So Shinepost, GoA, Sky1st, Reseleri RW can have bikinis. And ReslRW has pantyshots for green shalie, Sophie again. And platcha's outfit is normalized from gacha. At least Konami never kneels to DEI for being a sweatshop. Can sweatshops which exploit employees and give few wage become woke when they never care bout staff right?? And Cygames is super based and has bikinis on Uma musume unlike Korean gachas which cannot have bikinis. CZN is censored slop.
>>724807776But Konami and Cygames don't kneel to westoids tho. Uma musume shows more skin than BA and Nikke. Shinepost has 10 years old on bikini. Konami never gets woke.
>>724822757Imagine being so fucking fragile that the MC not being able to use magic being mentioned 3 times sends you into seething rage.
>>724821720But does 1 and 2 have shits to censor tho? And Takaichi is normalizing this. No Japanese console game was censored in Abe's era. It's Kishida and Ishiba's fault.
>>724784959will outsell metaflop just like DQ3 did.
>>724822757Why cannot blue prince use magic while other 3 can?
>>724796612>now every thread is just some bot replying to itselfare you the kind of nigger that accuses real art of being AI? I'm sure there are bots, but this problem you're talking about is imaginary.
ahem i came here to just saymimonelthat's all. thank you for reading my post
>>724823429Yeah. And Takaichi is decensoring Japanese console games from Kishida and Ishiba's shackle. You think it is still Ishiba's period, but Takaichi Sanae is normalizing the things. Japanese console games will have bikinis returned like Abe's time.
>>724796593Bro, what are you talking about! Kinguin would never!
man, i wish i was like the japs who can lose gallons on moonbrook princess. don't know how they do it.
724813943just proves SE right that none of you faggots actually play games.
>>724795184NTA but no the remakes try their best to salvage the horse shit of the originals and do improve on basically everything but since the groundwork they're building off is sewer sludge the end result is it's still a trash game.
>>724823514Because when they made the game the party was just as simple as fighter, cleric, mage and not much more thinking was put into it.
These frauds should've ported IX instead
>>724823514He's not actually loto's descendent. The queen fucked a nigger behind the king's back.
>>724784959Not buying censorshit, fuck off.
>>724784959Is it any good?
>>724825947How is 1 and 2 censored tho? Nuffin to censor in 1/2. As Takaichi is PM now. Not feminist like Ishiba shigeru.
Ahh gross, why does the mc start talking at the end of DQ1?
>>724826180he talked all gamein battles
>>724826310I suppose that's true, but it's bizarre hearing him talk in full sentences.
>>724826173>>724825947
