Honestly, out of all the platforms that Dragon Quest 10 is on, PS4 and PC are the best possible options for a western release, maybe 3DS/NX if Square Enix is willing to bring both versions of 11 over.

Why do you keep asking this question in every DQ thread? Its at least the fourth time I've seen you ask it, and every time we talked about it.

I've literally never asked this before. Never even seen this game mentioned on /v/. Sorry dude, didn't know its actually talked about
>>
>>339644487

6 was very good. I like it over 5, even. But having played the series completely out of order, my preferences for the series might not mesh with what other people think.

6, though, I kind of felt that Terry and the priest kid were pointless. I used the hero, Carver, the blonde girl, and Ashlynn the entire game.
>>
>>339645415
I actually thought Terry was pretty good. Basically another version of you. As well, if you played up until the REAL end boss, it is SO worth it to see him kick the other guy's ass
>>
Why do you want to hurt me like this, OP?
>>
>>339644487

As a massive DQ fan, DQVI (and IX) just doesn't have the strong character development and story that most of the other games do. I'm not claiming the story and characters are bad by any means. Just not up to the lofty peaks of the other games. This is mostly because every character in the game really only has one small quest that develops them (Milly finds her brother, Carver finds his parents, Nevan is literally only there to help you get a boat, etc). And otherwise, they are just along for the ride. The only characters who seem to get more story is the hero and Barbara, who get two developing moments instead of one.

Aside from the characters and story, the biggest problem is using the class system. Dragon Quest III and IX get away with the class system because they have very open ended stories and events. But Dragon Quest VI had very specific events and possibly the most linear story in the DQ series. Which kind of conflicted with the class system. It also made Dragon Quest VI feel like a beta version of Dragon Quest VII, which is essentially the same class system and focus on story, but with 10x more to it.

Overall, I don't hate the game by any means. But its pretty obvious why its the black sheep of the series and overlooked by most.

No, IX is the black sheep of the series.
It also isn't any less linear than VI, and so easy that you don't even need to reclass to beat the game, so I don't understand your point.

Its the best selling game of the series and one of the most popular. Can't really call it a black sheep. DQVI sold well, but constantly comes in last or second to last in popularity polls.

Am I the only one that doesn't care about X in the slightest?
After more than a decade since VIII we're finally about to see another ambitious next gen, single player focused mainline DQ. Hopefully coop shit and MMOs are a thing of the past.
>>
Is DQX better or worse than FFXI?

We don't know. All we do know is that it was made by the FFXI team plus the DQ team, so it has to be good.

>>
>>339649789
Japan went crazy about its multiplayer features for some time, but it certainly isn't loved in the west.
I'm also talking mostly about my tastes, the game is just a subpar DQ game: short, easy, formulaic, less freedom and variety than in older titles, horrible postgame.
>>339649830

>>
>>339649891
>ambitious
HAHAHAHA no.
I immediately lost a huge amount of interest once they announced a simultaneous 3ds version.
Now they're going to have the dev team split to make two mediocre games, when they could have just made one really good game with the entire team (be it 3DS or PS4).
>b-b-b-b-but MUH SUFAMI NOSTALGIA
Fuck you, Horii. I like DQ, but I don't give a shit about nostalgia. (which I am aware is a rather juxtaposed statement, but I hold to it).
Don't go back to fucking 4th gen after doing so well with the PS1/DS style. For fuck's sake, the enemy sprites aren't even animated, and the town/overworld graphics are literally 5sfc-tier, which is even worse than RPGMaker (which is pretty sad).
>>
>>339650360
Almost as bad.
That said
>hurr we got to add the dialects, and the puns, and the pointless name changes just because
Imagine my reaction why I learned they do this for every fucking language, and aren't even consistent with their changes. Characters and places aren't even named the same things across western languages (not even "Terry").
And they cry about the DQ localizations costing too much and taking too long.
JUST QUIT DOING ALL THAT EXCESS SHIT.
>>
>>339650516
What we saw was an early build of the game. It's entirely possible enemies in 2D mode will be animated. But I'm not counting on it.

And 2D mode overworld/town wasn't based on 5, it was based on 6/3SFC. Some of the NPC sprites were literally from 6.
>>
>>339650360

>Japan went crazy about its multiplayer features for some time, but it certainly isn't loved in the west.
I can only go by what I read online. But DQ9 seems to be one of the more popular ones. Probably because its the best selling game tied with DQ8. its just the sheer number of people who have played it and the marketing it got.
>>
>>339650516
Dude the 16bit mode was made for the japanese nostalgic about the SNES games.
Of course it doesn't look like DQVII or the DS remakes.
There's also no indication that developing 2 version will hurt the game. As if a DQ lacking content would ever be a realistic threat.

>>339651558

Not supporting that idiots point. But DQVI and VII are even more story focused and had a class system. I actually think the remakes for DQVI and VII would have benefited by using a skill system like VIII. But the other fans would riot.

The italian version of VI is particularly horrid, with not only dialects but also Star Wars and LotR references every 5 minutes.

The skill system of DQVIII was set up so that any skill tree you went down, you could still beat the game. Provided you didn't split your points up between every single skill tree. In other words, you don't have any reason to grind.

While a class system has a lot more oppertunities to mess up. Especially the class system in DQVII, where you'll spend 30 hours leveling Pirate or Tamer, only to find it doesn't lead to a tier 3 class. Making you have to stop and grind up to something like Sage to make your character viable in battle.

tl;dr: Skill system in DQVIII doesn't require pre planning or grinding. Class system can work fine, but requires pre planning to avoid grinding.

You can beat the game even if you go clubs. Hell, in my first game of DQ8, I went Boomerangs, Scythes, Knives and Bows. And I not only beat the game, but beat the Dragonvian Lord with that setup. It was 10x harder than it should have been, but it was doable.

People who played the game say it only went down by maybe 20 hours. Mostly because of faster movement and less shard hunting. It turned a 150 hour game into 120 hours.

SquareEnix 'censored' the game to get a CERO A rating in Japan. Because the CERO system is going to the extreme. Since the game has a Teen rating in the west already, they may put those things back in.

But go ahead and keep blaming Nintendo for things they didn't have any hand in. I'm sure that's what you really want to do.

Nintendo owns the 3DS, therefore any changes made to games are a direct result of Nintendo's bullshit censorship polices. You cannot refute that fact, especially when Nintendo forced Atlus to butcher #FE. Come off Reggie's dick.

4, 5, and 6 on Smartphones are straight ports with no no content what-so-ever, none of them are new remakes. You can claim party chat for 4, but that was in the Japanese DS version, so it's not new content.
4 on DS has no new content compared to the PSX version. Even the Immigrant Town and Party Chat were in the PSX version.
1, 2, and 3 on Wii are literally emulations. No new content there.
1 and 2 on Smartphones have zero new content compared to their Dumbphone versions. Even the resolution wasn't changed, as they just stretched the games to fit fullscreen on Smartphones, and they look terrible because of it.
3 on Smartphones doesn't have new content either compared to the SFC original. In fact, it has LESS.

Definitely a contender, only flaw is that the normal version is too repetitive.

We all know the real answer is "My Road, My Journey". There are literally NO bad official versions of that song. Even when they change it around, they ALL sound good. Even the Loula/Rura version. Even the fucking spanish vocal version. Fucking incredible.
Note: I said official. Some fan versions of it may suck, but I've never bothered checking.

Horii isn't stupid, Dragon Quest games are ALWAYS on the most successful consoles at the time.

Now, while the PS4 is plenty successful in Japan, there's a few things.

1. It still hasn't outsold the WiiU (yet)
2. Splatoon is the first console game in Japan to sell over a million copies in a WHILE

The 3DS version, much like Smash 4 is a failsafe. People will buy that version and it probably will top those million copies. The PS4, we don't know? Maybe? Hopefully?

The original ramia song is just a 5 second loop. And the original ramia sprite is a fucking pigeon.

I can't possibly agree understand this, or even try to understand it

remaking something is remaking it, its only the dq3 flying song, it can't possibly be anything else

this would be like saying that the snes version of dragon quest 3 is dragon quest 3, its not, its a remake for a different system

the dq8 remake 'exists' but it is not a new song in any way, shape or form. they reused it precisely because it was so good, and they wanted to use nostalgia to make 8 less shitty, which is a perfectly acceptable decision

dq3 ramia is good, and so is its re-use

And FFXIV saw a huge drop off precisely because its a WoW clone. Like every other WoW clone which struggled.

The very thing that could make DQX popular in the west is that it isn't a WoW clone. But SquareEnix still thinks its 1997, so they probably haven't figured that out yet.
