This game is the definition of soul
>>12599697>cucking your childhood friend for some random rich girlShameful
>>12599697looks like low budget shoverlware, Slop Enix was too lazy and greedy to pay for a remake in the graphic style of DQ8>>12599705>childhood friendhe just knew her for few days and went on an ''adventure'' to that haunted castle and she never shuts up about it
>>12599737>few daysThey lived in the same village.
>>12599705childhood friends are meant for cucking and suffering thus includes the video game world as well
I actually played this earlier this year. Solid game, but it was my first DQ game so I don't know how it stacks up.Started with the DS version, but eventually just played the ps2 translation. Bianca is best girl
>>12599697>>12599737God I wish they gave it to level 5
>>12600251>Bianca is best girlREMEMBA THAT TIME WE WENT TO THE HAUNTED HOUSE
>>12600310You don't want today's Level 5, they fucking SUCK
>>12600339>Remember the core memory we formed together?Yes.
>>12600707exactly she knew the MC as well as Nera did
>>12599659>low effort jeetmake>"soul"
>>12600762Nera didn't know shit and she would be happier with the other guy, the game obviously wants you to pick Bianca
>>12600762Flora saw him on a boat once
>>12601330>the game obviously wants you to pick BiancaHorii is a faggot
>>12601330>the gamewho gives a shit what "the game" wants. The devs were seething when people picked the joke option Deborah in the DS port
>>12600251>Solid game, but it was my first DQ game so I don't know how it stacks up.A lot of people rank V as among the best easily
>>12602014>The devs were seething when people picked the joke option Deborah in the DS portTldr?
I started it as a non jrpg guy thanks to this thread. I like the graphics and story so far, Papa is cool. The amount of random fucking encounters in that first cave though holy fucking shit. Will stick with it, thanks OP.
>>12602118Bianca is Horii's waifu. He tries to guilt you into picking her in the game>Her father's dying and begs you to take care of her>if you pick the alternative option Nera you cuck someoneHe originally complained about the doujins with Bianca and Jami (horse monster that kidnaps your wife). In the DS port a 3rd option Deborah was added. She's a spoiled brat and acts as a bitch and Horii and the other devs were seething when she proved to be popular
>>12602165>He originally complained about the doujins with Bianca and Jami (horse monster that kidnaps your wife).Funny enough, in the original release DQ11, one of your female party members gets herself enslaved to a casino-controlling monster who makes some very rape-y implications about her. Re-releases added a small extention retconning said monster to be such a wuss around women that he thinks holding hands with a woman is something you have to very slowly build up to over a decade.
>>12602160The encounter rate is quite high, but the loading times and combat animations are instant so the battles go very quick. Also as you get more party members you can basically juat automate battles anyway and use weapons that hit all enemies
>>12602194Cheers. Yeah I really like the battle animations. Very charming game and it looks wonderful upscaled.
>>12602184yeah that's the classic Square Enix copium
>>12602165>if you pick the alternative option Nera you cuck someoneThis is why you pick Nera/Flora. Plus having her father as your father in law gives you better dialogue.
>>12602228After the merger, Horii went soft on both the gameplay and the writing. DQ7 was the last "true" Dragon Quest, as it was the last time "Happily ever after" didn't mean everybody's happy.
>>12602248I don't think charmles is pretty happy at the end of 89's ending with all the Celestials fucking off and people forgetting about them wasn't pretty happy either
