It really is a demake, isn't it?
I'm not a fan of this either. Feels pointless when removing some of those stories won't fix any of the massive pacing issues the game has. All it results is less content just for the sake of less content. I'm puzzled by this decision.
Uh, are you asking a question? We told you it was a demake. We’re largely boycotting due to the extreme censorship, but cut gameplay is also a reason. Try “lurking” (browsing the site) before asking inane questions we’ve already answered. NEXT!
>>732203242You type like a tranny
Those are some UGLY models, holy shit
>>732203242>extreme censorshipLmao.Nobody takes mentally ill people like you seriously.
What's the point of this when the 3DS remake already exists?
>>732203296>>732203325Did our opinion change overnight? Why do we like this game all of a sudden?
>>732203536Mentally ill tendies are too retarded to emulate or hack a device that they had already bought 4 different editions of
>>732203536Most importantly, it's being released on all currently relevant platforms meanwhile the 3DS version is stuck on the 3DS. Also it's been almost 10 years.New graphics and voice acting is a pretty big deal in my opinion, and I have high hopes of all the optional story changes they added, like in the first town in the demo. So I'd say there are plenty of points.
>>732203742>7R does nothing different and is just the same game with a new portSo the screenshots are fake? If so, that’s false advertising which is illegal. Did Square Enix break the law?
>>732204056>Did Square Enix break the law?They broke the sexy law by making Aishe wear more clothing.
>>732202660Dragon Quest is so fucking lame now. There used to be time where the remakes were direct upgrades over the originals. Ever since the DQ6 DS remake they started making questionable decisions along with gutting things and it's only gotten worse since then. DQ1&2 being the arguable exception but those games were so simple it's impossible to not add more to them, even if it completely fucks the identity the games originally had. Most DQfags will still eat it up and defend it though because "it's le comfy"
>>732204359What problems do you have with the DQ3 remake, if you mentioned specifically that DQ1&2 are OK? It's literally the same game with some QOL and nothing removed just added. It's such a weird thing denouncing every remake when very rarely are there huge problems with them, and even that's nothing that can't be fixed with mods if you are really that anal about it.
>>732202660how much content/hours did they remove? I never played the original but I completed the demo of this and I really liked it
>>732203242>>732203648>we>we're>we've>our>webad bait
>>732202660I played the previous version on 3DS and it 100% needed to remove some of those fucking towns. That said, I heard they removed one of the towns I would've preferred that they kept.
>>732204850One review I listened to listed 3 or 4 towns being removed. El Ciclo was one of the towns listed. I think it was IGN's review.
>>732204724>It's literally the same game with some QOLClearly you haven’t played it
>>732205040Or, instead of removing things, they could've made them optional like they've already done with the other locations.
>>732202660>game is "filler, the game">people hate filler>SE streamlined it>"actually i liked filler"Why are you faggots like this?
>>732205697it's always "damned if you do, damned if you don't" with /v/, basically
>>732205697It's white people being contrarians.
>>732205697It might have been better received if they didn't remove the casino, censor the outfits, and do away with the vocation outfits and charge 60 bucks for it.
>>732202660>It really is a demake, isn't it?Did you mids the chibified chars? Of course it's a demake no self respecting ADULT would play such shit
>>732202660DQ7 was the epitome of bloated. That's why it failed.
The negative influence this game has had on our industry is staggering. Now every dev think it's okay to make demakes
>>732206127So its not about the story bits, but seeing the black woman crotch and some skin?what happened to gaming, man
>>732204359>nowlol
>>732206435See:>>732206063
>>732204359>Dragon Quest is so fucking lame now>Most DQfags will still eat it up and defend it though because "it's le comfy"Yes, Dragon quest has always been lame and but defended by retards like you with "le comfy".
>>732206267What does weed have to do with your post you schizo
>>732206435Its a combination of those things and the increased price tag. Really it just feels like the standard SE remake where they remove a lot of cool things from previous versions for no real reason.
I'm gonna play the original instead because I think dolls are creepy.
>/v/ now suddenly likes DQ7RTime to interrupt your snoozefest to change diapies. We ALL have diapies to change.
>>732206878diapers are awesome. the president poops his pants. it's cool now.
Vinny played it on the Nintendo Switch 2 and he loved it and that is all i need to know
>>732206830I think they are at the very least, unique.I was tired already of either realistic looking, or pixel shit like "my game is for chrono trigger/something old with pixels fans"
>>732202660of course, it has even less content than the 3ds version, which was already a demakejust playing the same content of the demo on the other 2 versions will give you an idea of everything that was cut.they even cut important characters, like the wolf boy's "dad", so I don't know how that whole village and storyline will change
>>732202660I actually like the art style, but what's the point of it comes at the cost of 25% of the game being expunged?
>>732203536it's a different game
>>732203648/v/ isn't a hive mind you fucking faggot.
>>732207062I never trust streamers because they gobble up all "quality of life" -feature without questions because it makes their "job" easier.
Ignoring everyone in this thread because they don't actually play dragon quest or heck, video games at all.Haters are gravely misinformed or simply have not played the original so they do not understand the changes or both.Having an absolute blast as usual, another great dragon quest remake, probably one of my least favourite remakes due to removing coffins and a bit excessive with how many "easy mode" options there are, like you already have dracky mode, so why do we also need to revive automatically with 1 hp in addition to rematch bosses or return to the last "checkpoint".Just a tad bit worried that come next game they make whenever you die you just appear back where you were before the battle started with full HP and MP.
>>732206670Demake is for retard stoners.
>>732207554>if you’re not “having a blast” with easy diaper baby mode, you don’t play video games
Do I play the ps1 or 3ds version bros? I've never played it before and now the remake is dogshit I'm going for one of the others.
>>732202660I took months to finish the 3ds version. But i don't want anything removed. I think the only positive aspect of this game is the return of Kiefer in your team.
>>732207868The 3ds is your way to go.
>>732202660ugly art atrocious where are the cool characters
>>732207062no he was bored as fuck
>removed content>needlessly big empty overworld>goofy unfitting costumes>added accents to the script>runs like shit>killed the mysterious tone of the originalWe'd be tearing this game apart if it released today, but since everyone ITT was 10 in 2016, it's the childhood favorite which sets the standard to meet.
>>732210126>goofy unfitting costumesI like when class changes affect the character visually.>killed the mysterious tone of the originalOnly the beginning, the rest is similar.>runs like shitI think it runs fine but the menu delay can be annoying, it's actually best played in an overclocked 3DS which eliminates the menu delay completely.
>>732210126>>goofy unfitting costumesNew demake apologists like you are really desperate at this point.
DQ7 DEIMAGINED
>>732212704maribel
Damn that's a lot of DQ7 threads, I remember when it was the most niche mainline game.
>>732213015>the most niche mainline gameThat would 6.
>>732213661You mean the game with the most popular character in the entire series, Terry? The Dragon Quest version of Trunks, who was the most popular character in Dragonball? That game?
>>732211849You're the one defending a demake.
>>732213661Maybe nowadays, but there was this period between the late 2000s and early to mid 2010s where 7 was maybe the least played game.
>>732206394???nobody liked that game and nobody was inspired by itit's not even the first bad remake what are you on about
the 7R demo FOMO is real, I went from being ambivalent about this remake to wanting to get right into release day because of it.
>>732203242>censorshipLike what? This is an honest question, because I am considering buying the game. I am not much of a turn-based fan, but the game looks pretty neat.
>>732214150>Like what? This is an honest question, because I am considering buying the gamewhy are you guys the way you are
>>732214150I'm considering buying it too. So far the only stuff I've seen is cut storylines, an old man no longer perving on Maribel(literal child), and the removal of the casino(this one bugs me)
>>732214453Never respond seriously to cat posters.
>>732205697People who complained about "filler" never would've liked or played DQ7 in the first place. Actual fans played DQ beyond 5, 8 and 11 would've considered it one of the strongest titles in the series. The entire point of DQ7 was to be a fuck huge adventure that stemmed from the Horii and the devs wanting to max out the amount of space they had on the PS1. Once you start taking that away, it's not DQ7 anymore. At the very least, they could've made the cut content optional instead, as they've already done with certain locations.
It's a DEImake
>>732213757Is Terry really the most popular character in the series? I haven't finished 6 but I heard you don't get him until near the end.
>>732214964you can frame it however you want, but factually very few people speak highly of 7 as it gets overshadowed by 8 and 9, and people think it likes to waste the player’s time. its reputation as the worst in the series is likely to contribute to this being the first DQ “flop” since they shilled XI to the west
>>732206878this is a selfish as fuck mindset, "oh I have kids and no free time so the industry should completely change the way they make video games to cater to ME"
>>732206878That's why difficulty settings exist.
>>732217031easy mode isn't enough for these people. They need every game to pander to them
>>732214647Casinos are worse than the other example you wrote.
>>732205697>keep all the original content>add a streamlined mode that cuts some stuff to make the game more suited to smartphone-addicted kids>now (you) can choose the best experience for (you)rselfProblem solved
>>732216232>its reputation as the worst in the series is likelyDown to casuals.
>>732206647>by retards like yousome people just come to /v/ to be complete dickwads huh
>>732217723>l-le casualsit’s dragon quest bro, it is a step above pokemon in terms of difficultynice cope, though too bad it doesn’t make any of the drivel you wrote any more true
never played a dq monsters. is there one on steam and is it worth playing? mind that i hate not seeing my character in combat and is the reason why despite liking the game i do not play etrian or other labyrinth exploration rpgs like mary skelter or labyrinth of refrain
>>732212884
>>732218026>it’s dragon quest bro, it is a step above pokemon in terms of difficultyAnd yet it's too much for casuals.
>DQ7>DQ7: Remake (Streamlined Edition)>DQ7: Remake (Streamlined Edition): Remake (Streamlined Edition)In 30 years we are going to get another DQ7 remake and so much is going to be stripped out of the game it's going to be a hallway you walk down for 15 minutes then roll credits.
>>732218274In most 3D DQ games you only "dont see" your characters when making command choices, but they appear during actual combat animations.
>>732218516WHY IS SHE DOING THAT
>>732202660>plays Pixar DQVIIKWABOTY
>>732204191>They broke the sexy law by making Aishe wear more clothing.They will pay for the woke censorship soon enough.Releases in 2 days, it's next on the chopping block.
>>732207868Ps1 if you can stomach it. That shit is slow as fuck. If not just go for the 3ds one
>>732202660Playing DQ7 for the first time now, also my first Dragon Quest game. Just reached Baloch Tower and I'm not using a guide. I peeked into a remake playthrough just for funnies and it honestly looked gorgeous. I noticed they changed the prison/arena arc a bit, you now climb to the arena with Fosse on your party while you were all by yourself in the original game and job changing is available just before the arena starts.. Leaving the thread before I get spoiled, I'm really going full blind.
There is 0 excuse for content removal and censorship.Idk how some anons itt manage to defend this.
>>732215684He's also the og Monsters MC. He's an edgelord meme in VI given how shit he is compared to his lizard partner. VI is the least popular of III-VIII in Japan too
>>732221459The original All-Trades arc is one of the rawest things I've experienced in a traditional jrpg. Just one fuck you after another until you finally claw your way out
>>732221913It has a certain heavy metal vibe to it, I wouldn't mind a whole game in that style.
>>732221913Losing your main damage dealer, Kiefer, one arc earlier was already pretty ballsy by itself but losing all your skills and being forced to go through three dungeons with your healer that can't heal, mage that can't use magic and the bark dog that is Gabo was a whole another level of balls. The game is nice enough to give you WonderRock before the dungeons which is all you need aside learning how control your HP, parrying to reduce damage and stalling some encounters to heal HP. I never expected having to go through all that before even getting to jobs.
>>732203223>people complain the game is too long>they make it shorter>people complain they made it shorterwtf do you people want?
>>7322078683ds version has an atrocious translation.Play the original.If you're complaining about the length, then dragon quest is not for you. They're all ridiculously long games. It's in the title - DRAG ON QUEST
>>732206309Not to mention it was a hideously outdated game even for its time (this releasing in NA essentially head-to-head against Final Fantasy X is comical), and Toriyama was phoning it in HARD with those character designs.
>>732213757I don’t even know who the fuck you’re talking about. The casts of 4, 5, 8, and even 11 are instantly more recognizable and iconic than anyone from 6.
>>732221913IT'S CALLED DHARMA TEMPLE, YOU FUCKING CUNT
>>732224826Toriyama's designs in 7 were different, but not bad. 6's were arguably worse since he didn't even design a good chunk of things. Not saying he didn't design ANYTHING, but a chunk of things were outsourced to other artists on record. It's why some of the monster designs are so different compared to older games.
>>732202660Is any of the removed content good?
>>732225681One of them was a scenario town related to yggdrasil, one was fairly peaceful and just related to the style contest (which is now removed), and one was just another scenario town. They also took out the immigrant town, casino, monster farm (as expected since you can't gather monsters anymore and hearts are only accessories now), and style contest (as noted before). Well, shit, if style contests are out, I would hope that style stat still serves some value in the superstar job to stun enemies.
