Inb4 Dragon Quest Monster Joker 3 fags shit on the thread
Fuckin sweet
>>339040739
>Not Rocket Slime 3
But anyways fuck yeah I'm excited. SE finally giving DQ fans over here some love after 5 years of nothingness.
>>339040739
You rang?
Seriously, hope in e3 is some news about joker 3 at least on the west even if its not the best 3ds dqm game. I mean, nintendos e3 is gonna be zelda, i get it, but shouldnt be necessary at least some release schedule for other 3ds and wii u games?
>>339040739
I mean I hope that gets translated too but I'll take what I can get right now ya know?
>>339040474
>tfw no more never ever meme
>>339040739
Reporting in.
Literally the only thing I care about.
Although the remake of 7 does pique my interest a tad as well.
Was it any good?
>>339041257
Surprisingly, yes. Ended up being a pretty fully fleshed out action RPG. Most content I've ever seen in a Minecraft clone anyway. Like a mix of Minecraft and Dark Cloud.
>>339041000
Just going to post this because I remember when we first started Operation Heroes.
Still mad about how many DQ games we haven't gotten yet but fucking hell SE is doing something right. Wada really must have been the cancer that has finally been removed.
>>339041257
Minecraft with a story more or less. But it's a pretty neat story.
DQ1 has you defeat the Dragonlord. In the game they gave you the option of either joining him or fighting him. If you joined him you died (which in DQ terms you go back to the king and have to go all the way back to the Dragonlord to talk to him again). In Builders the game takes place in a world where the hero did take the Dragonlord on his offer. And it's up to you to rebuild the world.
>watchingan easy allies stream the other day
>guy streaming says he stopped streaming this game for reasons he couldn't discuss
glad to hear it's exactly what I thought it was. game looks pretty chill
>>339041257
I've heard good things about it, but people kind of stopped buying it in moon land because one of the devs accidentally let something about a sequel with multiplayer slip on his twitter

*YAWN*
Wake me up when it comes to PC.
>>339041406
Nintendo released quite a bit of DQ games during the original DS era for North America, what happened?
>>339041716
Heroes hasn't even broken 20k on steam
Wouldn't get your hopes up if I were you anon
>>339041716
>I'm interested in game series X
>but I won't get game console Y where game series X is being released on
>I will instead only game on PC
Every time.
>>339041816
Have no real clue. Seem SE really didn't want to deal with localization and just push out Eidos games for the past 5 years. And seem it didn't really turn out like they hoped. And now they are trying to build up their Japanese section again. Guessing they actually was right when they said that the sales of Bravely Default really did change how they look at the west.
>>339042160
Nothing wrong with wanting a game on your preferred platform.
>>339042264
It's wrong when people wait 15 years to play a game on PC.
see FFX
>>339042264
No but that doesn't mean you have to act like a spoiled brat because it isn't on the system you prefer.
Does anyone know how the Vita version holds up? Was thinking of finally getting a PS4 but if the Vita version is good I might just get that.
>>339040893
Even if they do decide to localise it they won't let us know until after builders comes out
That's just how localisation works
>>339042480
Not sure, but it's digital only. Luckily I have a PS4.
>>339042243
It's just weird to me.
I remember reading Nintendo Power, and there were a shit ton of Dragon Quest games being localized for the Nintendo DS. Felt like a new revolution.
Now today, we barely expect any DQ games being seen outside Japan. Fucking bizarre.
What you mentioned makes sense, but it's always upsetting to me that one games sales can lead to whether or not an entire genre should be sold to a nation or not.
Is it also possible that there is an issue with Nintendo/Sony?
>>339042264
Why is pc your preferred platform if it doesn't have the games you want?
>>339042000
Heroes should try not being a fucking shit game if they want people to buy it.
>>339042984
I haven't played it yet, but heroes 2 is supposed to be an immense improvement and closer to an action rpg
>>339040474
OK, so they won't fucking localize any of the ACTUAL DQ games from the last, like, 5 or 6 years, but we get the minecraft knockoff?
Square what the FUCK
>DQ ten is totally coming guys!
>mmm well actually
>nah
[several years later]
>you can have this thing tho. foreigners rike minocrafto, right?
>>339042865
DS had a shit ton of DQ games and I think we actually got them all except Joker 2 Profession (got 2 but Profession is a much better version of that).
And honestly after DS the Japanese side of gaming as a whole kind of imploded. So I guess SE just thought of putting most of their time and money into Eidos and just like Enix do their thing in Japan but they always sell well. And it's really only know that it seem Japan gaming is waking up after a long night of drinking and with a hangover saying "what the fuck did we do all this time"
Nintendo is publishing 7 and 8 (and Bravely Default 1 and 2) so they have a nice relationship going.
>>339040474
>tfw it sells like shit and they don't bring XI as repercussion
>>339041406
>Wada really must have been the cancer that has finally been removed.
tru. SE are pretty based now t bh
>>339043198
Well at least we're getting 7 and 8, hopefully they'll get their shit together after those come out.
>>339041417
no need for spoilers fampai, EZA is /v/ approved
OHHHH FUUUUUCK
Welp time to buy a PS4.
>>339043198
>>339043303
Honestly in this era we live in with digital download, I don't see why they can't localize these games. At least in the past they could argue they would lose a lot of profits from manufacturing carts/cds/etc, but now all they really need to worry about is feeding their North American ESL teaching buddies.
>>339041816
>>339042243
>>339042865
Square Enix does not think DQ can be profitable in the West, because fucking retard Japanese think the West is only interested in realistic shit and gun games exclusively. It blew their fucking minds that Bravely Default was even MODERATELY successful here (no thanks to the sales they lost by censoring the game so much)
And the reason it surprised them is because up until BD they genuinely thought West had no interest in turn-based traditional JRPGs. Despite their best received FF titles all being turn-based...
but of course, nothing can ever just be good as it is, jap devs need to reinvent the wheel every. single. time
>>339043394
I'm still kind of pissy about the vita version of Setsuna not coming over but I'm such a JRPG fanboy I'll probably buy it on both ps4 and pc
> PlayStation 4 will have retail copies
Thank you square
>>339043607
Dragon "Warrior" was never as big a thing as it was in Japan, but they still did well in NA.
Don't really know what these fucks are smoking.
>>339043607
You know they did release all these games for the DS and had sales numbers to look at.
>>339043651
>the vita version of Setsuna not coming over
What? Fuuuuuuck. God damn it. I was really looking forward to playing that shit. Now I'm even more nervous about the Ps3 version of Persona 5 not being localized to increase Ps4 sales.
VII or Builders selling well, which one is more important to localizing XI you think?
>>339043360
Weird how the first DQ game we got after 5 years was a fan service game. It would be like if Nintendo didn't release any of the 3DS or Wii U Zelda games over here (and if Zelda wasn't well known). And suddenly gave us Hyrule Warriors.
I'm just scared people are going to look at it as only a Minecraft game and not even bother when there's more to it than that.
>>339043740
>vita version is digital only
Well at least they remembered us
>>339043869
VII for sure. Is Nintendo doing the localization? I hope not.
>not localizing the ps3 version
welp, i guess the pirated moonrune version it is for me.
>>339043846
They released two whole DQ games for DS
>>339043869
Mainline because builders will just make them want to give us a sequel to that.
>>339043869
Either one. 7 is such a weird Dragon Quest game in of itself. Don't forget DQ8 is also coming over and to many it was their first time playing a Dragon Quest game. So people feel out of any Dragon Quest game coming out DQ8 would sell the best.
>>339043983
>Still clinging to ps3 and hoping it gets translations
Holy fuck
>>339043962
>>339044016
I'll gift out some copies of VII to /v/ then.
Only 3-4 copies but it's something.
>>339043962
You're still gonna get accents and pop culture references, that's SE's policy.
>>339044072
well the ps3 is the only console that i can pirate for.
>>339043983
Digital Vita...not digital PS3. From Square's own public admission of marketing Builders is best on: PS4--->PS3--->PS Vita...and they don't localize the second best version of the game.
OK.jpg guess I'll wait for the Vita to be fully hacked so I can play it without paying SquareEnix money for being idiots.
>>339043962
You don't appreciate Treehouse's hard work, Anon?
>>339044043
I'm not buying 8, it's such a lazy fucking port.
The 3DS does destroy the PS2 graphically but they were too lazy to optimize the vegetation and now the overworld is disgustingly barren.
I'm buying every other localized DQ though
>>339043846
>>339043991
With zero advertisement too.
>>339043962
why would they
>>339044127
Honest question, why bother telling people you pirate?
>>339044096
That's quite generous of you anon.
I'm guessing since the PS3 version was the lead build, the PS4 version should be 1080p and maybe 60fps?
Or 30fps with no drops at least.
>>339044176
That's because on screen enemies take a lot of processing power, not because the port is lazy.
>>339044318
because when i tell animals they turn 360 degrees and walk away
WTF
So much good news today. I had serious doubts about weather or not this game was coming but god dammit square pulled through. I'm much more forgiving now for what they did with setsuna but yes, this is awesome awesome news. I will double dip on this game. Fuckin A awesome.
I hope you faggots realize that they are only announced DQ games for the west after the games are out already in Japan. So they won't announce DQMJ3 or DQ11 for the west until after those are out in Japan.
>minecraft is shit
>minecraft with DQ skin - /v/ jizz themselves.
explain.
>>339040474
Waiting for the inevitable PC release.
And oh, thanks for beta testing in advance, sonydindus :DDD
>>339044417
Its weird seeing hamster umaru being used for a post that isnt shit posting
>>339044176
I just said that it would most likely sell the best because people are more familiar with that game than Builders and DQ7.
And the port isn't lazy it's because they decided to do other things. And it has a ton of extra content faggot. "But the grass doesn't look good!" Eh I say it's still a nice looking game and while sad isn't going to be in HD is still a great game and I can't wait to replay it.
>>339044337
With Prime I can get 4 extra copies for $130, not that bad.
The price of 2 AAA games on console.
I'll likely ask about peoples favorite DQ game and why that is.
I'll pick my favorite answers and ask them to drop their amazon wishlist with the game in it, so no one needs to give personal info
>>339043198
We are getting DQ7 with a completely new translation, and DQ8, and we got DQ Heroes, and this is an actual DQ game set in DQ1 times.
should i play DQ heroes?
>>339044279
Of course. Why bother advertising it when they think it's going to sink regardless?
This is a problem Square's had since pre-PS1 era. They were half-assedly localizing FF games with very poor communication up until FFVI sold well, and they put some actual marketing into FFVII and it EXPLODED, who woulda thunk right?
But even during VII development, the localizers struggled immensely due to little/zero communication with JP Square devs. The code was a mess, the line of communication with the game creators was a mess, it was all very messy
Apparently it was only FF8 onward that communication and cooperation with JP devs became a thing, also they finally hired an actual team instead of the handful of dudes who'd translated each FF game up to that point
>>339044479
It's more akin to Terraria than Minecraft, it's just 3d so it gets compared to Minecraft more
>>339044503
You didn't buy DQ heroes
Enjoy getting nothing from now on fag
>>339044517
The ground is just green and brown textures pretty much, it's disgusting how many trees and all the grass that was cut.
>>339044353
Overworld models are not that taxing, if it was made into an ARPG you'd be right but it's just fucking symbol encounters, easy shit.
They're no different than NPC town citizens moving a bit faster
>>339044479
Better combat and that comfy DQ atmosphere
Bastard. I bought the weeb edition
>>339043360
>waah they won't ever localize DQ Heroes you'll see!?
>Waah who cares if they are localizing DQ Heroes it's not a real DQ where is muh DQ7? Where is muh DQ8?
>Waah who cares if they are bringing over DQ7 or DQ8, we already got those, where is muh original DQ spinoffs like Builders?
>Waah who cares if we are getting builders where is this game that isn't even out yet anywhere?
Are all DQ faggots completely braindead or just the ones that spam the same pictures on /v/ over and over again?
>>339044479
Minecraft is fine. It's the people that play it and do Let's Play 594 parts of them showing what they did is the problem.
Personally I could never get into Minecraft since I honestly need the game to give me some kind of objective or I just get bored and quit. And Builders is that which I am happy for.
>>339044479
Minecraft is shit because it has no effort put into it, the story mode is shit too.
Builders is a beautiful game, with a cool story, and town building.
>>339044545
Soooo re-translation of a game we already got, a downgraded port of a game we already got on PS2, an out of date musou (Japan is already on Heroes2) and a Minecraft spinoff.
Wow, Square sure is generous!
>>339044479
>>minecraft is shit

>DQMJ3

Two months ago.
>>339044518
You're alright
YEAH
physical version
I'm happy but why are they releasing Builders in October when they pushed back VII and VIII?
VII should have release priority.
Also can anyone confirm if Nintendo owns the translation script to VII?
I want them to release the superior mobile port in English, I vastly prefer random encounters to symbol.
>forced to buy Dragon Quest Heroes on day 1 because "how well it does will determine if any more games in the series make it to the West"
>it was a pile of shit
I just wanted DQ7 for 3DS, Square, why haven't you made a single good game since 2010?
>>339044518
Kind of you. I already got an answer to that but I'm planning on buying it myself. Feel more right personally.
>>339044646
>>339044176
Get over it. It's not a game-breaking factor especially with how much they added to the game. Don't be a graphicsfag. It's a fucking RPG not the latest Uncharted game.
>>339044835
Yeah and DQ Builders came out in January this year.
So if DQ Builders was Jan for Japan and Oct for west, then DQMJ3 will be Dec for west since it was March for Japan.
>>339044717
VII is a remake redone from scratch you dear shitposter.
>>339044884
Birth By Sleep, Type-0, Dissidia 012, Theatrhythm.
>>339044767
The game seem to be more towards people like me. Who like the idea of Minecraft but hates how it just drops you in the world and let you do everything. Yes I get that's the point of Minecraft but all that freedom just gets me bored. Having actual quests and interactions with people is what I feel would make me play a Minecraft like game.
>>339044947
I built a PC to play JRPGs with AA in higher res, nigger.
I'm not settling for this dead empty looking world despite the extra content, I just hope someone gets all the 3DS keys and fully cracks it open so we can insert the world map vegetation back in and then overclock the virtual hardware for frame rate.

>>339044884final fantasy xiii 2
>>339045227
Think LR was actually even better but mostly because by that point even the game know it was a piece of shit and said "yeah fuck it have fun"
>>339042264
Then you dont get to play the game.
Rather simple isnt it.
>>339043059
Its literally the same garbage
>>339044947
When a 10 year old needs to be downgraded just to accomodate shitty outdated hardware then it's a problem, it has nothing to do with being a graphics fag, we don't want improved visuals, we just want the game looking like it looked in its original state, not wanting to have shit removed out of it, it lowers the experience.
>>339045015
so is 8 supposedly, why should i give a fuck? I want RECENT DRAGON QUEST GAMES
NOT REMAKES
NOT SHITTY PORTS
NOT SPINOFFS
They promised DQX in the west, then figured NAH and gave us nothing instead
then held the IP hostage behind a shitty Musou like oh man, we're sure hoping Heroes sells well to gauge Western interest in DQ, despite it being a a fucking musou game and not an actual DQ title!
>>339045407
The new overworld ruins my sense of immersion, it's just so empty and barren.
the original was vibrant and full of life, it made it really easy to be immersed in it.
>>339043651
>>339043861
Wow, devs dont want to waste money on a dead device. Shocking
>>339045407
That looks quite disgusting on the left

>>339045219
Don't remind me...
Even if we get joker 3, and im gonna buy the fuck out of it, is gonna be an inferior game to the other 2.
According to dragons den's datamining, over 150 monsters that were in the previous games were removed in this one, all for sake of the riding mechanic.
>>339045407
Youre a cute little shitposter. Or just some underage marginalized dumb kunt.
DQ8 never looked like that. That is a pic from an emulated version with HD mods.

>>339045847
Who the fuck said Heroes was good?? It was mediocre, at best. DQfags liked the roster I guess? The combat itself was fucking awful

>>339045658

It costs them nothing to do that when theyre already translating the other versions.

Yes. Theyre called hd mods you dumb fucktard
>>339044176
>The 3DS does destroy the PS2 graphically
???
>>339045407
I played a bit of the JP version, and honestly, the lack of graphical fidelity turned me off. Graphicsfag or not, you can't sell me on my memories of the original game and then fail to replicate it well. Extra content is nice, but I can't avoid that bad taste in my mouth.
Doesn't help that I don't like playing JRPGs on the 3DS. At all.
>>339046292
Not for PS2 games.
Widescreen hacks are all you get.
>>339045962
>persona 5

>>339046292
Funny, as far as im concerned, theres no hd modding capabilities on pcsx2, at the most there's codes that enable hd resolutions and widescreen on not compatible games, and dq8 has widescreen support by default.
Can you please show us the page of these so called hd mods, or should we understand that you are just talking out of your ass?
I thought it wouldn't get localized, and if it did SE would ignore the Vita.
Definitely double-dipping.

>>339046986

Or did you feel that way about all the new content jn the DS remakes?
>>339047138
It's a city-building game/RPG. Not Minecraft.
It's pretty good though.
>>339047223
Dude's clearly just shitposting because there's never been a bad dq remake. In fact almost all of them became definitive versions (mobile ones are ports bros).
>>339047223
Deborah was the Poochie of DQV.
>>339047524
Now all I can think of is whomever you marry will just asking each other "Where's Deborah?" on their adventure. Even the kids will ask it when they never even meet her before.
Holy fuck how can you be a Dragon Quest fan complaining about graphics. That is the least the series has to worry about. At least for us in the west. We gotta buy every single thing possible or square will just keep ignoring us. Besides the VIII port is better in every way aside from the visuals and even then on its own it still looks good.
>>339046838
>he is actually so deluded that he think's they're actually gonna localise the ps3 version
>>339047524
Considering both the other marriage candidates were boring as shit, I was glad for a somewhat interesting option. Also the game doesn't guilt trip the shit out of you for not picking Bianca anymore, which is another massive improvement.
Damn nice
Just in time for my shiny PS4
Goddamn there's so many game that I want during that period
>>339046535
Persona 5 on PS4 is a port of the PS3 version. Game engine is entirely built on PS3, ported 2 years ago to PS4.
AtlusUSA PR re-confirms Western localization of PS3 version. Atlus is also localizing Odin Sphere remake on PS3 and PS Vita in the USA too.
Pic related, choke on a dick NeoGAF "PS4 ONLY XD" fanboy.
Nice.
DQ XI is one of the games I'm most looking forward. If it get localized then I'll serioulsy consider buying a PS4

fuck man,
Apart from you just being actually retarded, why wouldn't they localized the PS3 version? There is a huge install base of PS3 owners. And it's a PS3 game to begin with that was just ported over to the PS4. And where's your proof? After every single trailer Atlus reconfirms the PS3 version.
>>339047524
Also teaming up with Psaro was the DQ equivalent of That Kid's "you know you can recruit Sephiroth in FF7?" story.

>>339048047

As a Dragon Quest fan, these threads are starting to disgust me. But hopefully they have helped to shame SquareEnix into localizing more games. Let's keep shaming them until all the 3DS games and Dragon Quest X are out here.
>>339045407
>the 3DS game looks horrible compared to an emulated version at 4x resolution with AA!
Of course it does.
that's some good news, too bad about the vita version being digital only though
>>339044672
All of those complaints are perfectly valid, imagine if Japan only got all the mainline Mario games and we had only gotten spinoffs since fucking Sunshine
god forbid people want A NEW DRAGON QUEST THAT'S NOT A SPINOFF OR A BAD PORT
>>339056530
No they aren't.
Seems that Square Enix tries to appeal more to different audiences instead of the jrpg audience, seeing that they also focus at a Dynasty Warrior-style spin-off and ignore the main games.
Good thing for Nintendo for localizing DQ7 and 8 at 3DS.
>>339044672
None of those games are new Dragon Quest. It's like the scraps falling off the table for us to lick off the floor.
>Heroes 1 when there is already a superior sequel in Japan, also holding future titles hostage behind it despite it not being the same fucking genre
>constant broken promises to release DQX in the West, practically TAUNTING us by releasing ports we don't care about, spinoffs we didn't ask for, etc etc
but yeah DQ fans are SOOOO entitled. If you don't like Minecraft or Musou games and you have already played DQ7 and 8, what are you supposed to feel thankful for?
There hasn't been an ACTUAL new DQ game in the West since the DS era in 20-fucking-10!
>>339057424
>None of those games are new Dragon Quest
DQH is, DQ Builders is. DQ7 is a complete remake.
>>339057424
>WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH GIVE US DQ7 AND DQ8 ON 3DS RIGHT NOW REEEEEEEEEEEEE
>WAAAAAAAAAAAAH FUCK THIS THEY AREN'T NEW GAMES WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
>>339057570
>DQH
dynasty warriors reskin, this is like saying Hyrule Warriors is a new Zelda game when it fucking isn't.
>DQ Builders
again, not an actual mainline DQ. Based off fucking Minecraft
>>339057424
Man you're a fag. I'm happy as well.
>>339057656
Are you responding to the wrong comments or something, Mr Retard?
I never asked for 3DS ports of anything
>>339056530
DQ fans want all the DQ games to come over. Spin offs, remakes and new games. And es, the MMO as well, since it is a main series game. Stop pushing this 'only main series games count' crap you always bring up in every DQ thread.
>>339057820
So you're happy that Square has promised DQX multiple times and then just never bothered releasing it? Japan is already on DQ11
>>339057705
>dynasty warriors reskin
And yet you LITERALLY JUST FUCKING BEGGED FOR DQH2
>again, not an actual mainline DQ
And? It's a new DQ game regardless you cunt.
You list all a bunch of random DQ games in this meme image here>>339041406 then when you get a bunch of the spinoffs and remakes you still fucking complain.
>>339057905
>DQ fans want all the DQ games to come over. Spin offs, remakes and new games.
I'd prefer one new mainline DQ game to the five spinoffs we've gotten since fucking 2010, especially when Japan is already two entire games ahead (3 if you count Heroes 2)
>>339057949
They didn't promise it once as far as I can remember and I've been humping that game like a thirsty dog since 2012. All they've done is make excuses why they can't.
But there is a PS4 version coming out. Maybe they'll localize that one.
>>339058000
I didn't beg anywhere for anything.

Thanks for proving me right.
"We'd love to but *makes excuses as to why they can't*"
I ain't saying they're right to, I think they're being pretty jewish too, but I'm not unhappy with what we're getting right now because I never imagined to get them at all.
>>339058000
>EVERY PERSON IN THIS THREAD IS THE SAME PERSON!
Just stop posting please.
>>339058082
I would prefer getting all of the games. Dragon Quest X most of all since its a main series game I can play for years.
>>339058531

>"'Of course' we're bringing Dragon Quest X to the west! What a silly question!"
>2 years pass with no news
>"We're not bringing Dragon Quest X to the west. What ever gave you that idea?"
Aren't we supposed to get VII, VIII, and XI on the 3DS this year?
I couldn't give a fuck about spinoffs.
>>339058359
That literally isn't a promise at all.
>>339058668
They didn't say "west", they said this
>The MMORPG Dragon Quest X will “of course” be released outside Japan
Outside of Japan does not specifically mean west. DQX is coming to China which is outside of Japan.
They never said they would bring it west or promised anything for a western release.
>>339058531
I'm not. That is one of example of about a billion other promises and allusions they made to bringing the game to the West, here we are 2 fucking years later, japan has already moved onto DQX1, Square told us last year "buy DQ heroes if you want us to bring over ACTUAL DQ GAMES" and then people did and HERE WE FUCKING ARE, STILL no DQX and at this point even if we DO get it we are STILL an entire game behind Japan
>>339058359
>“We also have to think about it from a business standpoint. With Final Fantasy XI and XIV, it’s a global-scale endeavor. In terms of Dragon Quest, the way it’s perceived in the different countries is very, very different. How it’s perceived in Japan is different than how it’s perceived in the United States.”
in what fucking way, square? what the fuck do they think is different about DQ fans in the west??
>>339059101
We get it weeb, you think you are just like nihonjins.
>>339058943
They were talking to an interviewer from Europe who was asking about the game coming to Europe. And even then, it took almost 4 years for the game to be released in China.
That's some mighty fine cherry picking you have going on.
>>339059189

fuck off
DQH2 comes out this week.
Maribel hype.
Actual exploration/world map hype.
>>339059273

>>339059513
hopefully it makes its way west
>>339059252
They said outside of Japan.
Not west, outside of Japan.
China is outside of Japan, DQX is coming to China.
Shut the fuck up and deal with being wrong.
>>339059101
Dragon Quest is an established property in Japan. While in the west, it has a strong loyal fanbase, but doesn't have support from the general market like FF does. SquareEnix is basically doing everything they can to point out that they expect DQ to automatically get popular with zero marketing. Despite it needing marketing even in Japan.
The specific quote you mentioned is basically hinting at the same thing. SquareEnix built Final Fantasy XIV with the western fanbase in mind. Yoshida even said officially that he made it a WoW clone to appeal to the west. While Dragon Quest X was made with the Japanese gamer in mind. And Yoshida has said he thinks DQX would need to be 'completely rebuilt to appeal to the western gamer'. In other words, he thinks it needs to be made into a WoW clone.
What is so stupid is that all these producers in SE don't realize the biggest benefit DQX has is not being a WoW clone. And that's why it would do well in the west, which is starving for something new in the stagnant MMO market.
>>339040474
Awesome, gonna vita that.
>>339059776
>Shut the fuck up and deal with being wrong.
Right back at 'cha Squeenix defender.
WHY CANT WE JUST HAVE A NORMAL DQ GAME
FUCK
>>339045407
Christ, might just emulate this. Looks so awful.
>>339059727
It will if SE won't bring the game here then KT will bring the game here along with a terrible port
>>339059985
>Gets proven wrong
>B-BUT IT TOOK THEM 4 YEARS REEEEEEE
Who fucking cares? You are still proven wrong from your own statement that you made.
>>339057705
>dynasty warriors reskin, this is like saying Hyrule Warriors is a new Zelda game when it fucking isn't.
By that same logic, none of the spin-offs are Dragon Quest games.
>>339043651
The Víta version was supposedly pretty bad, so chances are that you'd hate it anyway.
>>339060045

When did it stop being a gear treadmill and become a sandbox, again?
Reminder that RS isn't running crazy sub numbers despite not being a "wow clone".
>>339060982
I was talking about Setsuna. DQB Vita is fine.
>>339060420
>They were talking to an interviewer from Europe who was asking about the game coming to Europe.

>>339061194
They asked about it coming outside Japan. Not west. Just outside Japan.
They said it will come outside Japan.
DQX is coming to China.
China is outside Japan.
You are literally fucking wrong.
>>339060985
Dragon Quest X has far more going on than just end game raiding. It isn't just a simple black and white themepark vs sandbox as you claim. SWG and Ragnarok Online also had gear progression, but clearly weren't WoW clones (until they tried to turn them into WoW clones).
>The autist will keep on complaining about SE because his precious series (which he doesn't bother learning Japanese for) isn't as popular as he wants it to be
Wew.
>>339061290
Protip
When you keep hitting enter after every single thought.
And you keep repeating the same arguments without any variation.
Its really easy to tell you are the same poster we see in every thread.
So please stop it.
You were wrong.
Deal with it.
k?
what is gematsu exactly
there are no review or advertisements or anything, and pretty every single "article" is just a paragraph or two of news and news alone by 1 single guy.
Its like a blog, but I see it linked all the time and mentioned because of some "gematsu link" but it doesnt even have a wikipedia page.
if it is just a blog, how does this fucker get his information? or is really behind and just reposting things he read from other organizations?
>>339061318
Hey, just like RuneScape for example. It still isn't doing too hot.
Pay to Play is a dying model. Either it should be Free to Play, Buy to Play (with MXT) or P2P with ability to play for game time with in-game currency (+MXT on top).
But, it wouldn't happen just for the west, it would have to happen globally.
>>339061429
It started off as a blog for PS games, I think. Then it slowly expanded.
>>339061429
He knows Japanese.
You could knew this information beforehand if you learned Japanese, Anonymous.
>>339061528
Why do you keep comparing DQX to Runescape? That game came out before Ragnarok Online did. Runescape isn't doing so hot because its nearly 17 years old.
>Pay to Play is a dying model.
Perhaps. But that doesn't stop people from claiming FFXIV is doing well. And despite the huge drop off in subs, WoW is still doing 10x better than FFXIV (or any other MMO).
Still, none of this is comparable to DQX. Especially since DQX could be released in America/Europe/Korea, sell half as much as FFXIV, and still make a profit. THe major costs of development were done years ago for a game that was only released in Japan. Localization and server costs are a much smaller cost. So even if DQX was only getting 300k subs outside Japan, it would still make plenty of money. Just like how FFXIV is sitting around that number and they still support it.
So does this game have progression that matters to actual gameplay? Is it randomly generated or does it have good exploration?
If I can reclaim the feelings of wonderment I got playing Minecraft for the first time when it was back in alpha, but in a game where I can actually do things like fun combat, then this is a definite buy.I'll probably buy it anyway since it's dragon quest though
>>339061649
so he just posts news about japanese games in english by reading japanese news and reporting the same, technically old, news in english?
if i may ask, in what form did this "leak" come? did this sal guy himself obtain the information and release it? its not a review site so i cant imagine him having access to games before release
>>339061429
it's a website for news on japanese video games that covers western games too
>>339061880
It has a story and quests. Like 'build a town center'. So you go out, gather materials and then build the town center and get rewarded by new NPCs appearing in town. Which give you new quests.
But outside of this, there's also an ARPG combat system and the ability to make your own stuff like in Minecraft. People have created crazy stuff in the game like they did in Minecraft.
>no physical vita version
Damn, no surprise though
>>339062151
The best option is obvious. Buy the PS4 version or wait for the PC version.
>haha its not coming to PC newb!
If a Musou got ported to PC, a Minecraft clone will.
>>339061875
>Why do you keep comparing DQX to Runescape? That game came out before Ragnarok Online did. Runescape isn't doing so hot because its nearly 17 years old.
It's still one of the most popular western MMOs to this day. WoW still has millions of subs goin (even if many of them are from China and with tokens subs mean less) and it came out 11 years ago as well. RS started gaining ground with RS2 and not RSC.
I could also compare it to Wakfu, I guess?
>sell half as much as FFXIV, and still make a profit
Based on what evidence? They'd need to localise it first and then have servers up and running along with setting up databases in each region (Europe didn't get XIV database in EU before Heavensward so you were always playing on US servers) then there would be maintenance, GMs, support, all the shite.
>So even if DQX was only getting 300k subs outside Japan,
I'd be surprised if it even got stable 50k running.
>>339062318
>If a Musou got ported to PC
You do realise that KT is one of the oldest (if not oldest) Japanese PC dev, right?
>>339044503
Interesting that they didn't announce a PC version
Considering that DQ Heroes flopped, PC fags aren't getting DQ Heroes II and Builders
>>339062318
And you're wrong on both accounts anyhow.
Dragon Quest Heroes isn't a musou, even if it shares the aspect of many monsters, finisher attack.
DQB isn't a Minecraft clone as it's more about tedious town building.
>>339062327
>Based on what evidence?
Super niche Korean MMOs getting less than 100k subs still stay active after localization and server costs. A major SquareEnix MMO could and should pull far more subs. Plus with cross marketing, it would also help add subs to FFXIV.
>I'd be surprised if it even got stable 50k running.
I wouldn't. Just the core DQ fans alone would be a couple 100k. Then you have all the FFXI fans who hate FFXIV and want a new game by the FFXI team (which is what DQX is). And the legion or MMO fans who want something besides a WoW clone.
The game could do quite well. Even better than FFXIV. The reason it might not work is because SquareEnix wouldn't market the game.
>>339062318LOL
>>339062542
>its not a musou because I don't like it
Can you please vary your trolling for once? Every single post you make I've seen a dozen times before.
>>339062689
Explain to me how is it a musou? It shares two things and that's about it.

FUCK THAT. WHEN IS DQ7 COMING OUT.
If this is coming out in october, then when is DQ7 supposed to come out!
>>339062318
I know, I am getting the ps4 version probably.
>>339062614
Its dumb that you keep thinking a game has to sell millions to be profitable. Especially since this game didn't even have localization costs or development costs. Its just a straight port of the PS4 game.
But since SquareEnix thinks the same way, I guess we're fucked.
>>339062827
>TBA 2016
Someone in Nintendo said they're aiming for an August release, but they also emphasized that they don't know. Blame SquareEnix for going 4 years without starting localization. And now they're rushing to localize it in under a year.
>>339062614
Your point? For a low-key port such as a musou game + DQ, both niche titles in the west, even more on PC, these are pretty decent sales.
>>339062875
Yes anon sub 30k is totally worth the effort
>>339040474
fuck yeisssss
>>339062612
>A major SquareEnix MMO could and should pull far more subs.
Based on...? Even big studios games can be flops.
> Just the core DQ fans alone would be a couple 100k.
Can you give me a source for this "Several hundred thousand DQ fans want a P2P MMO"?
>Then you have all the FFXI fans who hate FFXIV and want a new game by the FFXI team (which is what DQX is)
But what makes you think they'd be interested in DQ?
> And the legion or MMO fans who want something besides a WoW clone.
While it not may be a WoW clone, it still is a gear treadmill.
> Even better than FFXIV.
Yeah, a game from a series that's far less known outside Japan would surely do better than the one from a more famous series.
>>339062790
Its made by the Musou team who calls it a musou. I'm all for claiming it doesn't play like a musou since I think musou games are shit. But its still considered one by the developers.
And all the major complains from people are consistent with a musou game. Endless grinding on enemies and a bad PC port.
>>339058681
VII yes, VIII maybe next year, XI god knows when.
And the Monsters games are just as good as mainlines, I want both.
>>339062961
Inb4 the treehouse is localizing DQ VII and VIII. Expect dank menes and censorship
>>339063063
Its sad that you keep demanding he give you solid numbers and facts when your entire argument is based on conjecture. Neither of you can prove anything. But it sounds more logical that SquareEnix should at least try to release DQX and see if it gets subs, rather than just sit on their hands and claim the west wouldn't like it.
