>into Mega Man and Dragon Quest right now.
>nobody on /v/ wants to talk about those games series
Mega Man or Dragon Quest thread i guess...
>want to talk about Slime Mori Mori: Dragon Quest 3
>literally the only person on /v/ that's played it
JUST
/v/ is flavor of the month general. Good luck talking about something that's not Overwatch.
This is why I wanted a board split. Good luck talking about niche Jap games on a board infected with westernfags making Overwatch threads by the minute.
>>339790881
/v/ has split way too many times already
>>339790881
I agree with this idea. I don't have anything against some western games, but niche game discussions get pushed off the board too fucking fast.
>>339790256
I WONDER WHY
>>339791316
you can pirate it, you know
not like SE wants your gaijin money anyway
>>339791073
It's still the biggest board on 4chan. The discussion is more or less entirely geared towards flavor of month games due to the speed of the board making niche game discussion impossible.
>>339791316
Because it's easily the least selling DQ gaem.
>>339790881
Let's split it to PC / Consoles. Let's split it to Japan / West. Let's split it to niche / popular games. And in the end it's still all shitposting all the time.
>>339791589
>DQ
>Niche
w_w
Just go and make DQ generals on /vg/ if it's that special desu.
>>339791653
>Because it's easily the least selling DQ gaem.
SO LETS NOT SELL IT IN AMERICA, THAT'LL HELP SALES
>>339791653
It sold poorly (for DQ standards) because it was a 3DS game that released before the system bounced back. Even then, it sold over 100k units.
Just wait until DQ7 and 8 come out on 3DS.
There will definitely be discussion about those.
>>339790256
What is it about?
>>339790881
>>>/vg/
>>339791804
>Sells shit in JP
>Let's sell it in a place where it will sell even less!
Brilliant plan boss
>>339791960
>Even then, it sold over 100k units.
That's what pretty much all DQ games sell in less than a week from release though.
I just started DQ IV a few days ago and its one of the few games that's not storyheavy but has still given me that sense of adventure.
I also heard that Shitendo is going to have news about DQ VIIR at E3, so that's comforting
>>339790113
Man I so want to play Dragon Quest 8 again, but don't know which version to pick. Jessica a best.
>>339792303
I want to yank her top down so badly

I want her to talk lewd to me in that British accent
>>339791653
Every /v/ split has been bad.
/vg/ is a mess. /vp/ is ripe with underage posters and has nothing to talk about Pokemon porn for the majority of the year. /vr/ was decent for a while, if slow, but within the past year has become nothing but the most jaded of retro enthusiasts treating their board as a sanctuary and lashing out at anything they deem as not their childhood, all while kids who grew up with the PS2 and Gamecube continue to raid the board with meta threads until the mods give up.
Splitting the boards into Japanese gaming and Western gaming will only create even more shitposting, and it'd be hard to even decide what goes where with borderline cases. Does Metroid Prime get discussed on /vj/ because it's a realistic sci fi game made by a Texas based studio, even though it's a Nintendo IP? What about the Wonder Boy 3 remake being made by French devs, or Pro Evolution Soccer which is Konami but blatantly marketed to western casual gamers?
>>339792476
>>339792547
Both are shit, just pick your old ps2 or emulate

I'm playing DQ5 for the first time. Its bretty gud. I never thought much of this series because it wasn't edgy enough for me when I was younger, but I've come to appreciate it as I've gotten older and developed less shitty tastes.
>>339792737

>literally impossible to discuss rhythm games on /v/ except for Project Diva
Granted, I like Project Diva, and we've had SOME successful Taiko no Tatsujin threads in the last few months, but still.
Never played Dragon Quest. What game should I start with?
>>339793140
8 it's by far the best
>>339793140
5 is bess
>>339793079
Do Project Diva threads even discuss the games proper or is it just an excuse to have Vocaloid and Miku threads?
I don't really like vocaloid music and hate the culture surrounding it but love the games mechanically, so I tend to avoid the threads out of habit.
>>339793956
I won't lie most of it is waifushit and posting vocaloid songs.
If you want actual discussion of the games, you'd have better luck on vitagen in /vg/.
>>339793140
4 is regarded as the first really good one. the first three, while good in their own right and having their place in game history, might be too dated nowadays. 4-6 had remakes on the DS, and all have thier own charme and uniqueness.
9 is also great, but a lot a content is locked behind socalization bonuses.
>>339792060
>>Let's sell it in a place where it will sell even less!
Very unlikely given USA population.
>>339790113
We're having a megamenz thread right now.
>>339762806
>>339794206
>4 is regarded as the first really good one
Said no one.
Dragon Quest III is still the most iconic entry in the series.
>>339794565
here's what systems you should play them on
I - SNES
II - SNES
III - SNES or GBC (SNES is better overall, GBC has a couple more extras.)
IV - DS or Mobile (Mobile version has Party Chat restored, is otherwise identical to DS version.)
V - DS or PS2 (DS has an additional waifu to marry, PS2 has better graphics.)
VI - DS
VII - PS1 (3DS version isn't in English, not yet anyway)
VIII - PS2 (Mobile version is gutted, 3DS version not in English yet.)
IX - DS
X - lol never ever
>>339794730
>VIII mobile version is gutted
How so?
Who Heroes II here?
>>339795147
Still need to complete the first one. Awesome game.
>>339795147
Is it better than the first?
>>339794928
no voice acting
>>339795147
meh wont be as good as the first because of the cast
>>339794928
>>339796362
Also no orchestral soundtrack afaik.
>>339790113
There has been a surprisng amount of DQ threads lately anon.
Anywho,I got really lucky with the Baccarat casino slot machines yesterday.I got 3 7's and 3 bars on one spin and made out with 150k tokens.Enough to get Jessica the Gringham whip and two sets of liquid metal armour.I was so happy I could have wet.Based slime gods were with me lads.
>>339796362
WHAT. How the fuck can they justify taking that out?! Please tell me the 3DS version has it back, love those Brit accents.
Mega Man x Dragon Quest WHEN?
>>339797236
>>339797752
They justify it because the original PS2 release didn't have those either, in Japan at least.
The orchestrated soundtrack and voice acting were added for the International release, in part because they knew Japan would buy the shit out of the game no matter what. Guess they dressed to impress for the gaijins.
>>339797752
Mobile version is a lazy port from the japanese PS2 version which didnt have it either.
Only we gaijin had actual voiceacting, which is why they went so crazy on the britshit stuff.
bump
Not a fan of the series but all I know is that Rocket Slime is amazing.
>>339790881
This.
People saying this would be bad are just shitposters, asks /vg/ and /vr/ if they want to come back to this shithole.
protip:they don't.
>>339796986
>meh wont be as good as the first because of the cast
It has like all the characters from the first, with better new OCs and maribel.
>>339790113
good taste anon, keep the faith
>>339800717
how old is that image? i can't remember where i first saw it, but i know it was years ago.
