Its a joke in reference to the original joke image talking about a poo sandwich. 'Consistency and Solid'. Get it?

But it also has a double meaning. That Dragon Quest really is consistent and had solid gameplay. If you like pure turn based games, its pretty much the best in its class. Also the best in NPC interaction and exploration in my opinion.

Getting so tired of this. The translation gets outsoruced. And SquareEnix is in charge of it. SquareEnix of Japan is the one who keeps insisting on all the dialect and pun changes.

Nintendo is covering distribution and marketing (such as it is). Not translation.

I think nintendo has a say in it since their involved in it. Binding of isaac was censored, or changed whatever you prefer, in the 3DS version because it had religious themes. Why would Nicalis do that to their vision unless they were compelled to?

Nintendo is just super careful with their western audience because they believe every american is a bible thumping jingoist, whereas in japan they're much more lax in comparison

i am playing the PS4 version, and it looks great.
the combat is solid and i really love the characters and the world design.
also there's a shitton of voice acting.
for 10 bucks i would probably say go for it.
no idea if it suddenly gets bad after 10 hours but so far i've been having a blast.
>>344184652
maybe i can help you out too, granted i only played 3 hours of dark cloud.
it seems to be a pretty tough and possibly grindy dungeon crawler, somewhat similar to Diablo where you go down floor after floor.
and in the dungeons you obtain structures and stuff to rebuild your village with, wich is pretty fun.
haven't gotten much sense of the story yet, oh and theres also fishing.
i've been having a good time but i can see it getting repetetive after a while, i heard Dark cloud 2/dark chronicles is much better though.

Binding of Isaac wasn't censored, and while Nintendo has input on Dragon Quest because they're publishing it, it's still Square's call on everything. The only thing Nintendo's changed was the sword T in the logo. Everything else was Square's doing.
>>
>>344184371
The problem I have with it is that handheld RPGs are often so much less in scope and ambition compared to home console games simply because they can't do as much on the limited space and processing powers. They're also filled with ports or remasters when I would rather just play the original. I am probably wrong, just my impression

But they're the ones that have been ruining DQ for the last 2 decades. At this point, it might actually be better for Nintendo to take full control over it.

I think either I worded it wrong or you misunderstood. I'm saying Enix isn't around to fix the mistakes that SE did to Dragon Quest in the first place.

I wouldn't say DQ was ruined by Square since the most they've done with the label recently is rerelease mobile ports of their games. It took a ton of dicksucking just to get DQ7 over here in the west.

>>344188814
but think about it.
i am now buying PS2/3/4 games (among other stuff like wii U games).
i'm not really interested in anything before the N64/PS1 because i don't have nostalgia for those old Sega and Nintendo consoles.
but other people do.
i mean yea... 20 year olds in 15 years won't get to play something like secret of evermore, but it's not like they need to.
they have no affiliation to these older games of older times.
while YOU who really liked the console and those games, will always have those around to play them.
unless you're dumb/poor and have to sell the games, in wich case some other nerd will own them forever.
it's really not an issue, especially since Emulation exists and people technically do have a way to play older games.

She literally has the 'Sex Appeal' skill tree.

Regardless, Toriyama sexualizes all the girls he draws.

Nope, it's dual audio

>>344197142

DQVIII on 3DS has some top tier voices for the Japanese version. It better have dual audio since the voice for Dhoulmagus, Marcello and Medea are the best. Whereas those were the worst voices in the original English dub.

Nope. In fact, they add a scene with loli Mitea finding shota hero in a forest. Jessica's marriage scene(s) are just tossed in.

Dhoulmagus was great, especially his laugh.

I've always wondered this: Are Rogue Galaxy's dungeons randomly generated? Because they are so damn boring, uninspired and just don't feel like they were made with any love at all.
>>
>>344206868

it was just made by Level 5. All their games are bland and watered down versions of other more popular games. I mean, in the last few years, they've made three DQ clones, two Pokemon clones and they're working on a Monster Hunter clone.
>>
>>344174262
>I haven't played Dragon Quest IX
>>
>>344206868
hmm, good question.
don't have the answer for that, the dungeons i've been through had distinct chest locations that were semi hidden.
so pretty sure the early dungeons are set.
either way, i don't think boring dungeon design is really bad thing, i find it hard to remember a JRPG with interesting dungeon design, especially an action JRPG like rogue galaxy where you actually have to do combat in those dungeons.

That's part of the reason I prefer the series over the grimdark/realistic style. Though Dragon Quest also get pretty dark and emotional in story content. Its a lot more impacting to me when you have a bright, cute atmosphere but dark storytelling. Same reason I like Mahou Shoujo the best for anime.

>>344224683

It was 25% during the SquareEnix sale. But really, going from $60 to $48 isn't that great. I love DQ, but Heroes is the one game I'm not going to pay full price for. Especially knowing that the sequel is going to have 10x more content.

I also won't pay full price for Hyrule Warriors. Especially after knowing the 3DS gets content the Wii U version doesn't. Plus, they're both Musous, which I'm not that interested in anyway.

There was a couple people talking in the trailer and didn't have an accent. Maribel and Keifer. But a guy who claims he played the game at E3 said there was a town full of people who speak cockney. And for all we know, they could change Maribel before the game launches as its apparently still being translated.
