I'm actually not going to watch it. I just came across the live stream on YouTube and didn't see a thread for it so I created one for anyone interested in discussing it.I haven't been able to afford the first DQH game yet.
thanks doc
Fuck I have to leave right now
Thanks for the heads up OP
How long will it be and will it be recorded somewhere when its over
Not liking the new heroes.
The two new companions seem like a Yangus and Psaro reskin.
The monster medal control thing is pretty damn cool though

Can you create your own main character this time a la IX?
>>333580734
No.
>>333580734
no, but it looks like there's a job system now so the main characters can use different weapon types
>>333580819
Lame.
>>333580874
At least there's that, sounds cool.
>>333580569
asking for PC and PS4.5 for lulz are sensible?
Angelo, nice.
Do people really like Kyril and Alena that much?
Might as well bring in Borya
Also fucking Ruff/Gabo that's gonna be weird
I get that it's a feature of DQ games, but the way you manual save is just annoying and slow.
>>333581359
Then you dont really get it.
>>333581406
I do, but it's still annoying and slow.
>>333581460
No you dont.
There is nothing annoying about it, you can never die in DQ so why does it need to be faster?
When you are done playing just teleport to a church and save, saving is supposed to be an event
You dont get it
>>333581460
but I like save music
duhhhhhhhh duh duh duhhhhh duh duh
Is there any change to the layout of the world? The first game was decent, but I felt zero drive to return and replay anything, and exploring the levels for chests was kind of a waste of time. They didn't really hammer out the kinks in marrying musou and DQ together, I guess.
I didn't know this was even announced.
I really loved DQH, even though I generally can't play Musou games. And since then I even finished DQ games 1-6.
Can't wait for DQH2. Is there a release date? Andis it coming to PC?
What is the appeal of VIII? I see the appeal of the others but not VIII. I'm a fan of the series but wonder what others see in VIII as it looks very basic. Also the character designs seem pretty generic to me. I want to get 3ds VIII when it releases but don't have the reason to.
>>333581512
You don't have to enjoy something to understand it.
>>333581536
The little song is all right.
Pretty cool how the tokens let you turn into the monster this time.
>>333581594
VIII was the first one where you could see you characters perfoming actions and that opened a whole new appeal to the art direction of the game. You see your swords, shields, etc change as you equip them and it gave a better eye appeal. I personally think that 8 along with heroes are the 2 best art directed dragon quest games.
Some people like it because it's more traditional to the RPG formula and less "Dragon Quest" like (meaning it looks more like other RPGs and not so much like DQ)
Though honestly you can't go more RPG than Dragon Quest
>>333581594
8 is fucking aces, and along with 5 probably has the most genuine, fleshed out characters in the whole series.
>>333579102
>DQH II
They're rushing it man.
>>333582275
same as DQB II 2017 (I'm 99% sure they making it)
>>333582232
>>333582047
The art looks beautiful, very appealing. I wonder if VIII was appealing as it released at a time when other jrpgs like it. I'm honestly not even sure about getting VII, I just keep hearing negative things about it. I'll wait and think about it, luckily have a lot of time.
>>333581594
VIII's characters have more personality than most in the series, it was the first 3D game and it had a very vibrant and cozy world. Only one that might be better is V.
Oh fuck.
>>333582471
V will always be my favorite RPG story.
I started playing the child arc and was like "Oh boy, can't wait to get the magical thingamabob and start my adventure", and then the story just gave me a huge middle finger to the face. I wasn't expecting that turn in a dragon quest game and I loved it.
>>333582641
They all ran away.
>>333579102
>retarded enough to forbid anyone stream the first game for copyright issue
>use stream to promote game
>>333582795
I like V alot too, however I feel the last third could've been better. Loved being a father, would love more games to let me fight with my wife and kids.
>>333582795
Yeah 5 is lovely shit. The grievance I have with it is the supporting cast is weak. Like, your story is badass as all get out, but no-one who joins up with you really has any agency. Stills great though. 8 has little minor arcs with some moving scenes for even sub characters who never join you, and it really takes the game to the next level, for me.

Oh man, I had a blast with DQH.
If there's one thing I'd like them to make better it was how long menu and shop navigation was. I know it simulated old Dragon Quest games menus but it was just frustrating at times.
If they could increase basic movement speed a small amount and make dodge roll cancels a bit more fluid and connected certain attacks that'd be great. But they aren't important.
I loved the fight against the Bjorn the Behemoose.

What the fuck in their fucking mind when they think making a sequel is a good decision.
>>333590061
Because it made them money? I dunno, anon. Why the fuck do you think a company would make another game?
Because some other anon on /v/ was shilling harder than you were shitting?
>>333590061
Why not? it sold well in japan
W-what time will it start?
why is this boy everywhere?

Who's that? I have seen him before i think in tv drama.
>>333579102
Chrono Trigger Heroes fucking when.
SHIT'S LIVE, YO
>>333579102
sounds like sims music
>>333590503
It already ended
>>333591212
I actually thought about it too. Could be cool. They could even use the DQH engine and shit, the art style is similar.
Also add some Chrono Cross characters for diversity and it'd be gold.
