Its shit.
Well, yeah, the original was shit too.
>>732354558Team America World Police on the right
looks like westroon pixar slop
It looks kinda washed out too for some reason. animal crossing nh had that same problem.
>>732354558Why bother remaking this? Why not literally any other dq game?Is it a new team they wanted to gather experience so they gave them a game nobody cares about so its not a big deal if they fuck it up?
>>732354558No shit I played the demo.
>>732354558I dont care what anyone says, the artstyle is repulsive
how is difficulty? i fear the stronger monsters setting is too easy still
>>732354602Better than 6 and 9 by a mile, at least.
>>732355014>Is it a new team they wanted to gather experience so they gave them a game nobody cares about so its not a big deal if they fuck it up?Most likely. Same reason P3R had jank animations and faces.
Of course it's shit, look how bad the cover looks.
Demo keyed me in on that.>Menus are ass.>Facial animations are stiff but don't lean into the stop motion thing they kept banging on about.Oh, at least they fixed the 3DS neutering the initial puzzles!>Instead of a cutscene of a button being stepped on, now you get to move TWO WHOLE BLOCKS.>>732355014They're clearly trying to get the whole backlog on modern systems to both cash in on brand value now that most of the creators are dead and to build a fan base for 12. One team is doing the 2D games, one's doing 3D. Honestly, 3 HD was ass. 1+2 only has value because they're really *not* 1 or 2, but new games wearing their skin, which feels kinda off. Can't imagine the 4-6 or 8 remakes will go over well.
>>732354558Is this a Pixar movie?
>>732354558I'm glad they put a demo up. When I was a kid I got sucked in to Phantasy Star (RPG) and FF, and I guess the whimsical stories these games have and the uh. unique localizations are just not for me. The only DQ I've finished was 11 and I had to force myself and I've bounced off of every single other one.That's fine; not every game has to be for me and obviously this series is HUGELY influential.
>this threadIs there no POS Western bloat-trash Snoy movie game to shit on this year?
>>732355582Why would they remake 8? Even on the ps2 the game still holds up visually. The only thing they could do is maybe up the resolution a bit. You know they'll censor Jessica's titties tho
>>732355758I love DQ but this remake is ass.>>732355691If you couldn't get into 5, I dunno what to say.
>>732355895This is what you said about Metroid Prime 4 too
Whats so bad about it? Compared to the original.
>>732355895just not for me, man. I am appreciated for the demo so I knew I wouldn't be into it. Square still going to get my money; they announced a new Paranormalsight.
>>732355582Yeah but it's a really good game wearing 2's skin.
>>732355691>The only DQ I've finished was 11 and I had to force myself and I've bounced off of every single other one.Because DQ is overrated as fuck and is forced nostalgia. They keep doing this "le whimsical" tone when its just generic cartoon slop and we're supposed to go "oh it's so wholesome and nostalgic"
I know people say this all the time now, but this really looks like someone asked AI to turn original art into 3D models.
>>732354558That artstyle looks so awful
I'm not listening to anybody here. I'm buying it on sale and I'm playing it.
The blurring makes me sick. Can you turn it off?
>>732356125>I'm not listening to anybody hereas you shouldn't
>>732356125Ok
>>732354558>cut areas>cut dialogue>piss easy>simplified puzzles.>simplified areas>cut dungeonsWhy should anyone buy this?
My Switch copy just arrived today
>>732355227it's piss easy
>>732356271>Why should anyone buy this?They censored the problematic sexual elements, so you should support them to help pay for the consultants they had to fly in.
>>732355982>>732356271
>>732355965Nah. I think it's ok. Better than 3. Not great, though. Writing sucked. Ok areas.>>732355997>I am appreciated for the demo so I knew I wouldn't be into it.Huh? I'm talking about 5, not 7.>>7323560363, 4 and 5 are fantastic RPGs and nobody who actually played them would characterize them like that. I think the games after Chunsoft were way worse, but the early ones kick ass.
>>732356271How simplified were the puzzles compared to the original?It was kinda confusing how that old man couldn't solve the most basic shadow puzzle to get a tablet piece in the demo.
>>732356125Well, Square Enix doesn't drop the prices for their games that much. I wouldn't pay more than 20 Euros for this game and that won't happen for 5 years.
Holy shit I've never seen this level of jeet/spic unison to shit on a game they obviously cannot afford. Been playing it for like 12 hours, it's fun and I do not care about your faggot 'muh original'.The only legitimate complaint is the character faces, but those're actually only shitty in the cutscnes with the exception being Keifer. Keifer's face is fucking abysmal.
>>732355894Casino too but I don't know how they can get away with that as it had plot relevance.
>>732356908The temple puzzles are all gone, same as the 3DS version. In its place is a single room and annoying imp creature, which is by far the worst change enacted by the 3DS version that still remains.Instead, finding the four shards of the first tablet is changed into a properly-tracked quest. So it's still handholdy compared to the "figure it out yourself" style of the original, but better than the nothing we got in the 3DS version.
>>732356908The first two hours of the original is basically isometric Ocarina of Time.https://youtu.be/U2hzucDOUYM1 hour and 10 minutes in. It's a Zelda dungeon.
>>732354558works on my machine
>>732357103Not quite. This remake replaced the 3DS version's literal nothing with the most basic puzzles in the world. An upgrade, except not really.
>>7323546023ds remake is where it's at.
I'm interested in getting it, but I want to finish VI first, and wait for a sale. I haven't read about what exactly was cut and added though.
I'll only get it if the new Kiefer stuff is good, but I can't find any info on that. Might as well just play the 3DS version if I want a pared down VII.
>>732354558Whys it so fucking hard to remake a game? Just take the original and update the grahpics.But no thats too fucking hard and too much to ask.
>>732357471Ehhhh. I used to say that too, but honestly, I think the original is just more immersive and engaging, which is what this game had going for it.
>>732355227Easier than the original, even the puzzles that are there are crazy easy but there are tuned up super enemies hanging around that are stronger than bosses. There's also a DLC super dungeon that comes with the deluxe edition.>>732354558It's better on PS5, the load times are noticeably shorter, and textures are better and better nails the stop motion puppet aesthetic the game is going for.Even with all the cuts to the intro and the job system being available at the start, with new unique starter jobs, the game is a slog and a half, it's still a cozy classic, I love the self contained nature of each area
ending in on youtube for anyone who wants to see it.
>>732354558What gave it away? That horrendous fucking artstyle on the cover that instantly makes me want to throw up and call gaming dead?
>>732355758I see the recent news of Yotei's success is causing some consternation in the tendiephile community. Good.
>>732357471i think that version is the ugliest of any mainline dq remake. all the enemies look like plastic and the overworld is just a flat green grass texture with trees that pop in 5 feet in front of you with a dogshit camera. plus the translation sucked all the soul out of the ps1 script + censoring shit and they completely rebalanced all the vocation skills so you cant go crazy with the 0 mp multi target skills anymore.
>>732358783>completely rebalanced all the vocation skills so you cant go crazy with the 0 mp multi target skills anymore.Sounds like the remake of Tactics where they went full no fun allowed with teleport nerfs and the like.
What are the story changes? They gave an alternate ending for Ballymalloy in the demo, did anything else change?
why are they waiting so long to remake dqV???
>>732354558>calarts bean mouthsyeah no shit
I played the demo and loved it. Cute and comfy.It's all I need.
