Dragon Quest 11 is almost nine years old and we still haven't seen a single fucking second of gameplay from Dragon Quest 12...
>>738437767Got cancelled lil bro
>>738437767Toriyama is dead lil brothe game has to be completed by a bunch of studio hacks desperate to try and hold 1 candle to the prestige Toriyama brought the Countryit was already making waves initially as being a "New kind of Dragon Quest" meant to "bring in the newest generation of Japan"and now Tori is dead, we're radio silence and all we know is its gonna be "Different"FUCKKINGCUT MY LIFE INTO PIECES
>>738438034>shitty tranime artstyle guy who's work is easily replicated and wasnt even good to begin with is deadoh wow whatever will they do, next youre going to tell me the washed as fuck composer dying is a big loss too.
>>738437767we havent had a real FF since 2001, thats way worse.
>>738438153What the fuck do you think Dragon Quest is for if not enjoying the art stylings of Toriyama and the music of Sugiyama?Its 4 iggas in a row gameplay from the 90s that they stated they're trying hard to modernize?why are you in this thread
>>738438153>next youre going to tell me the washed as fuck composer dying is a big loss tooYou laugh, but I wouldn't put it past them to do that. They dickride that hack so hard they'd probably commit seppuku along with him and officially retire the series forever.
>>738438297because sugiyama used to be great a long time ago (VIII was his last good work) and toriyama's style was fine in the pixel era when it was mostly just monster designs (and before those monster designs were copy pasted a billion times over)there is zero reason to be sad about both of them being gone now, if anything Im more excited for 12 because of the fresh blood (but its still SE so it will gauranteed shit)
>>738437767what's the best dragon quest game?
>>738438624Imo 5, but the HD-2D remake of 2 is riding closely behindThey did such a good job fixing up that game
>>738438732Shame it's attached to the remake of 1, what a fuckin disaster.
>>738438573Sugiyama was a racist and a prick to people, but Toriyama's designs are the life blood of Dragon Questtake OPs image for example, if it wasn't for Toriyama the slime wouldn't been some depressing puddle on the ground and he came back with the iconic teardrop shape that is plastered over the franchise.The series Oozes toriyama, and since VII a lot of designs were made by the game artists inspired by Toriyamas work, so it'll live on but to say we don't lose something in how his brain works, or he comes across a problem is wild to me.I appreciate you're able to look forward past the deaths, but you're just besmirching the dead.
>>738437767artist name by any chance? reverse search aint showin
>>738438821>Sugiyama was a racist and a prickSo is Hayao Miyazaki, but I don't see faggots like you trying to say his work is bad.
I wonder if the gameplay will be the exact same as the last 11 entries... Hmm...
>>738438821>Sugiyama was a racist and a prick to peopleBased. I already liked his music, this was just the cherry on top. He obviously fell off for the later games in the series due to his age but he genuinely made some great soundtracks and haters can get fucked.
>>738439009I honestly worry that it won't be
>>738438624I only played 7 I have yet to finish it
>>7384392457 is genuinely the worst choice to play as your first entry in this series.
>>738439245It's one of the least accessible. If you're inclined I'd say pick up 8 which is kino start to finish and well paced.
>>738439245God dayum you have melvyn! GG! 8 is not well paced and over stayed its welcome by a few dozen hours
>>738438624SNES remake of III is easily the best (no english release but translation exists). ps2 version of VIII is the second best.every other answer is objectively wrong, be especially wary of V redditors (they think its the best game because you get to pick a waifu and that somehow fulfills their pathetic lives)
>>738438821>sugiyama was a racistthanks for starting with this so I could ignore the rest of the post
>>738439621what makes the SNES version of III so special? I already own the HD version on switch and VIII on PS2
>>738439552>he played it on 3ds
>>738439245no one finishes the OG version of VII except for absolute masochists with no standards. I got 50 hours into the game before I dropped. I wasnt even halfway finished
>>738438821>Sugiyama was a racist and a prick to people,I already like the dude...
>>738439681every version of 3 is great, even the mobile version, its just a great game with a brilliant foundation. but the snes version is by far the best looking and sounding option out of all of them. hd2d has more content but looks like total slop in comparison and also holds your hand like a baby like all watered down demakes, so I wouldnt call that better, definitely not. too modern. snes 3 is one of the most beautiful looking/sounding 16 bit games ever made. on top of being the best DQ game gameplay wise.
>>738439146I imagine they'll go the Tales route, but still have an option to play Turn-Based.
>>738439929I see. How many of the snes DQ games/versions are worth playing?
>>738438624I liked VI. This is an unpopular opinion.I will not apologize.Have a good day
>>738437767oh yeaaah keep listing more numbers
>>738440083It's okay to like VI as long as you're willing to admit it's weaker than the game's stronger entries by a fair margin.
>>738440083I saw someone recently that said that VI was the best one and that the DS version was one of the worst versions/localizations of the game
>>738440159The issue with VI is mostly pacing, in that the game had around 40 hours of content and they really wanted it to be a 60 hour game, so there hits this disconnect from the rest of the content and the whole demon world really feels like that.If you adjusted the vocation system, and how it worked to fix this it'd be one of the best.
>>738437767Surely the'll give some news on Dragon Quest day right?
>>738440213he is correct, VI is top tier and the ds version is shit. Literally the only reason people shit on vi is skill issues (wahh I dont know where to go waah this boss is too hard) it was great story, great characters, amazing graphics, probably the best OST in the seriesonly III and VIII I would say are for sure better and even those are debatable
>>738441154are any of the DS versions worth playing? I managed to get my hands on a cartridge of V recently.
>>738441154The vocation system is tied to #of fights grinded instead of experience etc, so if you want to partake in the postgame of VI you're forced to grind.
>>738441341IV remake on the DS is also pretty good, just be sure to get the patch that adds the party dialogue back in if you're playing it in english.
