Dragon Quest HD Remakes of I-III were the best games of 2025
vidya girls peaked over 30 years ago
>Censored Quest
>>729883096sooo true
>>729883162It is a shame. I don't really care about remakes, the the original dq games are great, but censoring benign stuff like that drops it from might buy on sale to passing even at 90% off.
>>729882953Is there a mod that fixes the sprites?
>>729882953I was hyped for the pixel remaster but decided not to buy it after their retarded censorship. they can go fuck themselves
>>729882953Why does she have a giant crotch plate if she doesn't have a futa cock?
>>729883554for the imagination
>>729882953There's a cock in there, isn't there?
Eeeeh the censorship wasn't so bad.
>>729883862It's not so much that the censorship itself wasn't gratuitous but rather that it's there at all and what that means for other remakes (and media as a whole) going forwards.
>>729884027they did it bc of Steam guidelines to begin with
>>729882953So why didn't you post the Remake version of her design?
>>729884134It is funny they gave her skin tone cloths
>>729883862>>729884076Retard.
>>729884134look at the tanlines in OP image
>>729884365The ones that don't match the remake's top?
>>729884324>look localization of DQ added shit like they have always done in the Westyea man, were you born yesterday?
>>729884426They changed it in Japanese too, moron.
>>729884471>look remake changed shit from my 40 year old game like they have always done in Japan
>>729884471>>729884324>>729884134yea this is bad but does it really break the whole game? the new features are pretty nice too and the game looks gorgeous
>>729884471>>729884324>>729883862I love how the interview with Dragon Ball ex-editor and Yuji Horii they were talking about the censorship and they were confused as fuck about it lol. Even Yuji Horii was like "Would anyone really get mad if we just use M*** & F***** (censored just in case people get offended here)"
>>729884716It is better than Suikoden HD remasters for sure
futanari
>>729884851Princess pantsu....
In DQ3, I turned my martial artist into one of those super wizard classes that requires a special book just for that. Did I screw up? I think the right thing to do is to make a wizard or cleric become the super wizard, right?
>>729885094Would you save her?
>>729885109Not an awful choice, having a Sage that's a bit speedier than average is fine. At the end of the day team comps don't matter all that much because the Hero can cover any holes you're missing.
>>729884134Warrior's design almost feels like some kind of malicious compliance thing. It's so bad it makes me want to believe whoever was forced to draw that wanted to make sure it gets noticed and understood as some kind of higher mandate.
i was thinking of getting the 1 and 2 bundle but the only DQ i've played is 11 and i didn't like it that much, so i didn't
Is XI a prequel to III?
are they gonna remaster IV, V, VI too?
>>729885749No. It takes place in the future of DQ3.
>>729885940Most likely. We'll probably find out on Dragon Quest Day.
>>729885387>>729884851>be me last week>try to check up on laura hentai>nothing>apparently anons on here have a shit ton of shit. what the fuck where the hell do you find this shit >>729885109meh who cares. let's be honest if it's just the main game it's literally just monster hunter -> whatever your choice. one to two sages are nice but you can just go into mage/cleric to grab what you need and dip.
reminder that dq has been getting censored since the handheld port of 8 but you fags only started caring last year. I was posting about the bikini in 11 getting turned into fucking shorts and you all said "it's not a big dead" and "it's still hot." you only care now because some jewtuber told you to be upset about it. fuck all of you niggers.
>>729882953grim
>>729886487this
>>729884134>priest class>from cross to pagan shit
I've played 1 and 2 on my phone is the remake worth 40 bones?
>>729886704>>729886487this >>729884813
Naz Chris (Host): "The costume design has become a huge topic of discussion."Yuji Horii: "Well, there are various regulations, you know. We can't have too much exposure."Naz Chris: "But that's fine. Even though it's fiction, you, the protagonist, are going on an adventure within it, so I think that's okay. Isn't it?"Yuji Horii: "I don't really know. I'm not sure about that."Naz Chris: "It's a game. It's a non-fiction virtual experience within fiction, so I think it should be fun."Yuji Horii: "If there's too much exposure, the target age rating goes up. It could no longer be suitable for all ages."Naz Chris: "I didn't think about that back then."Kazuhiko Torishima: "There's this absolute god called 'compliance.' It’s like evil disguised as good. Not everyone can feel comfortable with everything. After all, concepts of beauty and ugliness, good and evil vary from person to person. At the root of things, there are definitely some things you should never do, and as long as you avoid those, everything else should be fine. But that’s not the case. The concept of sex education that comes from religious ideas in the West is prevalent in America. Their view on compliance is really narrow. When they publish comics over there, they have to categorize them by age. If it's a Weekly Shōnen Jump manga, it can't be published for anyone under 13 years old. Everything has to go through reworkings. You have to get insurance in case of lawsuits. It's really troublesome. Japan has also been negatively influenced by this."Yuji Horii: "You can choose the protagonist's gender, but you can't say 'choose male or female.' It's type 1 and type 2. I wonder who would complain if we just said male and female? I don't understand."Thoughts?
>>729882953God I need her to peg me
>>729886743I think so, all three add a shit ton of stuff. New areas, tons of bosses, and having access to abilities is great. I got 75 hours out of 3 and 95 out of 1&2 so they're pretty beefy for what are ostensibly 80s RPGs. If you just played them recently though I'd suggest putting it off for a bit so it feels fresher, they'll probably get a steeper discount later.
>>729885749そうかも
>>729886337>what the fuck where the hell do you find this shitUhhh... imageboard sites?
>>729883419Yeah.https://basedmods.org/mod/9ce7a2fd-71aa-4c70-a57f-8b3f13378ac6https://gamebanana.com/mods/555706
>>729886743I've only played 1 because 2 has references to 11 which is making me acoustic as fuck because 11s has tickington which has references to everything so I want to beat 11 first but then I also want to beat 4,5,6,7,8,9 so I can get the funny references in tickington but my opinion on 1 is:>More expanded plotMixed. It definitely "ruins" the pacing with nes being nice and sweet but there's a lot more character for laura especially if you bring her along. but remember cutscenes aren't skippable if you die which brings me into my next point>this gameplay is hard as fucking shitlike holy fucking balls rng out the asshole, you have to beat every fucking boss fight by cheesing if you're on draconian, you cannot outgrind shit. abuse your 70% chance to reflect physical move and abuse your evasion buffs and pray. You could also just REALLY slowly chip away at most bosses until they run out of MP and just loop from there but it's still pretty tedious.
>>729886487It's been getting censored since the JP version of 8 where they changed the crosses into tridents.
>>729884813>Would anyone really get mad if we just use M*** & F***** (censored just in case people get offended here)I really think the whole Type A/B thing is going to eventually be one of those things that people look back on as being ridiculous. Like how you can visually identify corporate kids mascots from the 90s because they all had a wheelchair kid. Eventually wheelchair kids disappeared because they figured out no one actually gives a shit and other things became better marketing material.
3HD was still way overpriced and should have been 10-30 burgers. If it was a true 3D remake with decent character customization (height slider, hair options), then maybe they could justify the price.t. only played and finished DQ 9.
>>729887634>wheelchairsbrother they're back in anime. hot as fuck and usually in porn gachas idk how but still.also that wheelchair kid from backyard sports is goated so shut your mouth
>>729883815Yeah, mine.
>>729887828His name is Kenny and he's my star pitcher, bitch.Maybe in the future there will be anime gacha porn that fetishizes the Type B bodytype naming (if there isn't already).
>>729887285>Naked elbows are literally porn!What?
>>729887795I bought 3HD on sale to try to get into the series, played less than 3 hours and refunded it. Didn't hate it but I really didn't feel I got my money's worth, really wish they added some party conversations or something.
>>729888290If I had to guess, they knew they were gonna have to censor the F-Warrior bikini armor and Priest's crosses, so they added more work to justify the expense of having some dedicated censor on staff or contracted. There were a bunch of small changes like that which make little sense.
>>729882953i thought that was shantae from the thumbnailyou guys got any bellydancers in dq
>>729888557>you guys got any bellydancers in dqperhaps
>>729886898Regulations in Japan have been out of control for a long time, and no one is saying anything.The lolis in Everybody's Golf have their fucking bellies censored. Artists can no longer depict bellies without covering them or painting them black in Japanese games, unless they classify the game as adult or some shit like that.
Why did they put so much effort into II? They really didn't need to make it the new best of the trilogy.
>>729888783very nice tummy
>>729882953What is she hiding behind that crotch plate?
>>729887828Well gachas you throw a hundred character gimmicks and see what sticksWho knows maybe some cripplefucker will singlehandedly fund your game
>>729886717They replaced the crosses with the trident since like DQ7 or 8
>>729888272I had this game, can't remember which sport it was for, I think Ricky was my favorite.
>>729884813And then Square Enix nuked the entire several hour long stream, of which that interview was just a small part. Promises were made an accurate translation will be provided, and stream restored, but they were not kept.
>>729890687That screenshot is from Backyard Baseball 1997, which actually got a nice rerelease on steam and works great. Even has achievements. I think Kenny is in multiple Backyard games though.
>>729882953Still haven't bought cause of the censorship. If they put out a physical 1-3 collection on switch 2 I'd probably fold to that
>>729882953agreed. 2HD was fucking great>>729883162>OH NO MUH CENSORED PIXEL ON ONE FEMALE CLASS THAT I CAN TOTALLY TELL APART FROM THE ORIGINAL. HOW WILL WE RECOVER COOMER BROS?
>>729890339Her crotch.
>>729891498I'm not usually one to care about the censorship stuff in games, but the warrior bikini armor is pretty damn iconic and the shorts and top they put underneath look like an obvious last-second addition. I would've preferred a black bodysuit or something more than what they did for her. I also wouldn't say it "ruins" the game, but it's a legitimate complaint.
XI is the last time this franchise was good.
>>729882953I started playing through the original DQ games. I'm going through 2 right now with the SNES 1+2 version.
>>7298933122 is pretty good. Be prepared for a weird grind at the very end of the game.
>>729882953I'll be playing the GBC version of III, is there anything I'll be missing out on?
>>729884324I am playing in Japanese, it's a good thing not having to deal with the atrocious localization this franchise usually has, but stuff like this is such a bummer. I heard Live a Live was censored too
>>729891646That's a new one. >>729894979This is what happens when you give all your Seeds of Strength to the warrior.
>>729891806It definitely isn't last minute since the design has been that way since the DQM 3ds remake so like 2012it appears with spats/shorts in DQXI as well, I'd assume the 3ds remake of VIII too for the girl in morrie's arena>>729886717it's been a trident since DQ8 so 2004it was more censored in the NES port of DW3 where the churches were healing temples and the priests were just healers
>>729882953I played this remake with my brother and we were pretty hyped about starting it because we've played several other DQ games before, but even though we played at the hardest difficulty there was zero resistance from the monsters. There was almost no need to replenish life and mana, because the characters would always level up before it went too low. The sound/timing feedback during battles was really bad, which made for an absolutely terrible time given the high monster encounter rate. We dropped it in disgust after 10 hours of gameplay because there was no sense of progression, just endless slop battles. We decided we'll try to find a rom of the original with a faithful translation some time in the future and just play that instead.
wake me up when DQ12 comes out
