Off to a good start. Anyways, I assume this is what Vampire Survivors is like? But smaller scale, I guess. Seems like it might be fun but it chugs a bit on my (somewhat dated) phone.
Guys i'm so excited for the remakes. I am beyond excited they come out just after my birthday i'm gonna buy soda and play them all weekend

There have been other artists doing supplementary and promotional art for a long time now. What I'm curious about is the Princess of Cannock's new design; since it seems like there were always plans to remake 1 & 2 after 3 (I think Horii mentioned that at the initial reveal 700 years ago), was that a design Toriyama himself did in advance?

I don't think they came up with the idea until after they were in mid development. The early trailers for 1&2 only feature the original 3 members.

His original design for her was as much of a stereotypical kid princess as it got. Pretty sure her new look is a recent development by one of his trained successors.

A wierd thing about Alefgard in DQ1 remake is the islands that were reached by boat in 3 are now connected to the landmass because there's no boat and then in 2 they revert back to their DQ3 state.

I'm feeling dread cause I know I won't be finished replaying VII before then, and I'm not sure how good of a stopping point I'll be at to leave the game for a month or two and be able to remember everything I need to.
how interesting is the story in I & II? I'm thinking about either starting VIII or waiting for the remakes release at the end of the month

In DQ1 you rescue the princess and beat the Dragonlord. In DQ2 you meet up with your cousins and beat Hargon. That's pretty much it.
The remakes seem to be adding some more, but don't expect Xenogears. These games both originally came out before the first Final Fantasy.

I usually think it's lame to let "canon" determine your choices in a game, but when it comes to names I usually just go with the official one if there's nothing else I can customize about the character. Unless it's Pokemon or something where even when it had set designs for the protagonists the character's name is more of a "team name" for multiplayer than anything.

You have to listen to me.
If there isn't an NES monster location, name table, and exp/gold rate that is EXACTLY the same as the NES Dragon Quest 1, then the game will suck.
I just played the mobile version and it seems like slop.
One shooting scorpions with sizz? Are you fucking kidding me? Where is the resource management?
I had enough gold walking around in the dark cave to buy a hand axe and rhe large shield. I didn't have to do 8 dives for it and flee from every monster on the 2md floor.
Please. PLEASE YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO ME! THE NES VERSION IS MORE THAN "BABBYS FIRST RPG" I CAN SEE THE WAY! THE ZONES! THE WAY TO GRIND! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAEEEEEEEEEEEEE

The grinding will be superior in the remake cause you'll probably have multiple metal slimes at a time and learn critical claim from a scroll.

did co-op until i got enough copies of the slime army memory to upgrade it to s-rank
thoughts on it so far are mixed. if everyone has a good connection and everything runs smooth it's good, because you can easily dodge the incoming aoe attacks and counter properly...
but if the connection is shit and everything lags, it's borderline unplayable. it just becomes attack and heal back up with the heal slime cdg heal
would probably also need a proper lobby system like in stars that allows you to kick people if they're underleveled or undergeared.
love that stamps are back, though, those were half the fun in stars' co-op
the slime army memory
it's really good for mages, even at lower ranks

also, when it comes to "generosity", the game hands you shittons of tickets and gems to roll shit on.
just the slime event alone handed me like 15 multis in tickets, then a couple more tickets from the tact-like battle pass, one extra infinity reroll ticket, and shittons of gems for another 5 multis or so, and there's still 13000 gems I can get from the cbt missions
the only worry is that they'll change this once the game is live. you'd just have to hope that the minimum amount of tickets they hand out is always 10, not 1, so you still get 1/10 of a multi per ticket package, like you used to get in tact.

what's also annoying is picrel
for the vocation skill trees you need s-rank memories, and you can only get these from ranking them up afaik
you need 3 copies of the same rank to rank them to the next higher rank (3xD -> C, 3x C -> B, 3xB -> A, 3xA -> S)
there's no speed up button, characters move super slow, and auto-battle sometimes just stops working, so if you want to max out the vocation skill trees, you have to play through these slow and longer stages over and over again
maybe skip tickets haven't been implemented yet and stuff, but this is too much. you'd have to spend weeks grinding that shit. they better start paying me to play to this if they want me to grind all day everyday just so i can level a vocation's skill tree

I was being 100% unironic.
After watching the glitchless speedrun strategy it's like DQ1 is a resource management game.
When I was a kid I never did the dark cave because I didn't understand the point. I knew the fighter's ring was in there but I also knew that all the monsters on the 2nd floor are hardcore. There's fucking wizards down there.
But now it's interesting. Diving for gold to upgrade my equipment and hoping for the death necklace to sell.
Fight the monsters on floor 1 for gold and exp and run from everything on the 2nd floor until level 7 and the large shield. Then you can fight skeletons and drolls.

I think so. I've only put a couple hours in, and the first chapter was a little braindead but the bit I've played after actually asks for you to pay attention. It's not a terribly complex game and once again I think it would have been WAY better as a full retail game, but it is what it is.

Good. To me, voices feel like they don't belong when the characters are stiff sprites who don't really emote or gesture.
>>542772213
i think so, but i also enjoyed heroes and infinity strash.
like in stars you have 3 blank slate characters you have to roll equipment for. in addition to equipment there are also memories that give extra stats and additional effects, like increased resistant or damage against certain elements or monster families. some high-tier ones also give you blessings or other gameplay changers, like the king slime memory that allows staff users to pierce enemies
the gameplay itself is pretty simple, you enter a stage, you defeat enemies, you get exp, fill the exp bar, and every time you fill the exp bar, you get a blessing, a buff that stays until the end of the stage.
some mobs use larger attacks that are a little harder to avoid, but they're shown in the typical red area danger zones like in any other action or MMO game.
here's some gameplay that shows me going through the flame shrine. shortened it a bit so it'd fit here, but you should get an idea how the game is from it.

One of the main purposes of CBTs is to test server stress in a smaller environment, so if they can't handle co-op that well in the CBT then things don't bode well for the full release unless this does what it's supposed to do and gets them to actually improve things.

Seems like they're really going to church up 2 since it's the "end" of the Erdrick story.
Man 2 could have been a lot better if they had more time to tweak the level and enemy stats.

I wonder if it's embarrassing for old people to be ruled by younger people.
Is the DQXI timeline supposed to work like the wacky Zelda timeline? Like at the end there are 3 timelines: Urnoga's plan succeeds but hero eventually beats them, Hero prevents Urnoga's plan and beats the not-Lavos monser, and Senika prevents Morcant from falling into the darkness and Roche and friends defeat not-Lavos?
>>542851003
Eleven got trapped in a corner of time and forgotten that was the price of going back. The Erdrick bloodline from 3 is probably descended from Erdwin and Serenica, Ortega's coronet is silver with a blue jewel just like Erdwin's.

Horii has said there's no split timeline in XI, for whatever that's worth. I think Serenica was only a spirit after being reverted to human form and she went back in time to reunite with Erdwin in the afterlife, which would also explain how Serena and Veronica even exist. The only comment any character makes is "I hope she finds him", no worries about causality or whatever.

Yggdragon's little speech to the hero wouldn't make much sense if III was a sequel to some alternate timeline he doesn't know anything about.

and here's an example of a skill tree
the round s-circles are for s-rank memories, which means their effects are only enabled if you put a s-rank memory into those
to get s-rank memories you either have to be lucky or farm them. idk what to compare it to other than tact's free character/monster farming. but instead of only having to max out 1 monster, you have to max out 8 of those for one vocation on a character. each vocation is a different color, so you can't just use the same 8 over and over again

That was always my interpretation. Luminary basically just lives a normal life, and his adventure gets turned into a fairy tale. That's why you see Loto's mom reading the book where are the characters are slightly different versions of the XI party.

I don’t think the picture points one way or another, but Horii himself said there’s only one timeline and it converged with the old, which is why the party members start having Deja vu/remember bits Act 2. My thought was that Serenica going back and defeating Calasmos in the past could cause a similar phenomenon, where it’s still one timeline that still holds some memories of the original. Which explains why no one in DQ1-3 has any knowledge of the Luminary. They think he’s just a fairy tale. Ultimately I don’t think Horii ever intends to give a 100% clear answer.

Have you played the Playstation version? The 3DS version isn't very good IMO. The costumes are cool and I like the graphics OK (though I don't like the world map and the colors are a bit over saturated for me) but the gameplay is weaker. I suppose you're worried about the "streamlined" narrative of the new game, but we still don't know the exact details. I'd suggest either playing PS1 or playing Remake and going back and playing PS1 later.

play the 3DS version now and then play the reimagined 6 months to a year after it comes out, so that enough time will have passed and you'll also get the benefit of having the reimagined version on the latest possible patch and whatnot (plus eventual mods already made, if you're on pc)
You'll buy the DQ7 remake, won't you? You don't need all those dumb islands from the lame old versions.

It was a shame for 3DS to make cuts too, but 3DS wasn't beautiful so it didn't hurt me to skip it, I actually chose PS1 over 3DS for my first playthrough.
Should I play one of these or DQM3?

i guess the game only has those 4 locations they showed then, cause if it's not in the trailers it's guaranteed to not be there!
also, they already have alt dlc outfits, why wouldn't they have vocation costumes?

Because they can charge money for DLC costumes retard. Why would they randomly not have outfits for 4 vocations but then have them for the rest? They're obviously not in the fucking game at all.

Are there any other examples of DQ taking inspiration from movies? Obviously it's downstream from other games and anime as well, but I mean specifically stuff from Hollywood.
Do you think DQ7 Remake will give you access to vocations/the entire party faster than the original?

Maybe by trimming some of the fat off the arc, but not by much. Alltrades Abbey is the party's first major direct encounter with Orgodemir's forces and also their first without Kiefer, so it's kind of required to stay where it is in the plot.

Luminary had to deal with vicious and malicious which is objectively stronger than normal monsters as their power is greatly multiplied and there were boss fights like that too which still didn'teven compare to stuff like Calasmos.
Builder defeats One in his game, so we know he's stronger than him for sure.

Wouldn't Six and Seven actually be the strongest if we're going off of number of abilities? They both have access to every spell and ability from every class at the same time, Seven even has all monster spells and abilities and combines the capabilities of some classes to make up new abilities.

>Have to give up ailment resist up for better kazap damage
>>543247045
Sorry, had to gather my thoughts for a bit. I’d say it’s fun, but with a big asterisk.
At first, I tried to see how far I could get without summoning anything, since that’s just how I play gachas. I don’t spend money, so I like testing how far I can go using only farmables. That worked fine through Chapter 1, but once Events opened up, it became obvious you have to summon, otherwise you’ll just get one-shot or time out.
So after I realized there is no farmable gear, I gave in, decided on Martial Artist as my main, summoned, and built my team around that.
Once I pulled some 3 gear from tickets (Crystal Claws, Queen’s Whip, Shiverstick, etc.), the game opened up a bit. The stat gap between 2 and 3 is pretty big, especially when it comes to additional effects, but that’s expected in gachas. Still, it’d be nice if there was some farmable Event gear so unlucky players don’t get boxed out completely.
Midgame was okay. When you’re properly geared and not getting erased in two hits, combat feels fast and satisfying. A mobile version of Infinity Strash, basically.
But the “endgame” (Nightmare bosses and Gauntlets) is where the cracks start to show. Enemies spam adds that flood the screen, the auto-aim constantly screws you (AoEs always locking onto nearest enemies), and the dash mechanic straight-up breaks once your speed gets too high.
My guess is they made dashing a Battle Animation and forgot to add a “must travel X distance before the animation can end” check. Since higher Battle Speed shortens animation durations, it basically cancels your dash instantly. So instead of zipping across the field, you just stutter in place, dashing one inch at a time.
Giving me the option to opt out of auto-aim and fixing dashing would be a godsend.

Then there's the Monster Memory grind. Drop rates are painfully low, and you need absurd amounts of them for Skill Tree unlocks. 8 per vocation per character, across 5 vocations. The rank-up system (3×D = C, 3×C = B, etc.) is just pure bloat. Combine that with the “unique memory” restriction and color/family matching, and it turns into a full-time job.
For example, my Martial Artist has a Slime Knight Memory equipped, so I can't use another Slime Knight Memory for the Skill Tree. I'd need a completely different red 50+ cost S-rank Slime-type memory, which doesn't even exist yet.
And the worst part? Everything takes forever. Training stages last a full minute and drop almost nothing, so upgrading a single weapon takes 4-5 runs. Do that across three characters, and you're spending 25+ minutes just grinding basic materials. You'll stockpile stuff eventually, sure, but right now it's just painfully slow. Doubling the drop amounts would fix half the problem.
Co-op's just as bad. It didn't count my earlier runs, and now it wants me to do 25 more. That's 25 x 7 minutes, not counting the 'finding a party' screen. Since Co-op's only open for an hour and then closed for an hour, I'd need like 6 hours straight to finish the mission. And that assumes no bugs or crashes. I'm not doing that, I got shit to do. kek
Gauntlet mode could be a highlight; it's actually fun when you roll the right Blessings. Big numbers good basically. But since only three of them (Magnifier, Flurry, Scatter, not including Gauntlet-specific ones) are really worth anything, most runs feel doomed halfway through. Out of ~50 runs, I maybe got a good combo 7 times. Not the end of the world, but it's annoying to not be able to PB simply because the Blessings fucked you over.
So yeah, the core gameplay loop is fun when it works. It just gets buried under grind, RNG, and design quirks that make it hard to enjoy consistently.

>The wisdom stat's maximum influence on attack spell power was raised from +30% to +60% and also increases the damage range by the same amount. For example the Zapple spell has a base power 80 and range of 10, with high Wisdom now raising the base power to 128 and the range to 16.
So that explains why magic feels so strong in DQ3HD compared to other games.
>>543265779
It was good beforehand, too. Mostly because hard mode boosted enemy defense to obscene values and Kazap could instakill everything in Alefgard's overworld except for like...One or two enemies. And many of the enemies in dungeons, even.
>>543264304
>Then there's the Monster Memory grind
This is what's sapping the fun out of the beta for me. I wanted to do all of the feat sheet things but 10 S-ranks is far, far too much. I'm only halfway there and if I also have to somehow do 25 co-op missions in one day then I'm kind of over it. I beat the robot, so as far as I'm concerned I "beat" the beta.

You can press the auto-mode button and let characters fight by themselves, but the AI is retarded and sometimes just stops working, so you have to be there to reset it.
And no, you can't automatically let it play multiple stages. You can only skip 5 stages per day, and that's it, no skip tickets, speed ups, or auto-restart buttons. You always end up back in the stage select after you're done with a stage.
A regular stage takes around 3 minutes, harder ones around 5, Co-Op and Endgame stages around 7 to 10.

Half agree, but musk will get you half of them and a thief covers the other half. I actually enjoyed the tradeoff of having to use musk and increase the encounter rate to get some monsters in dungeons. Of course 0 MP no limits Zoom hurts that a bit, but it's a cute idea.

Why do we want HD-2D remakes of games that already had perfectly good DS/3DS remakes? The Bravely Default S2 ports look far better than any HD-2D game.

If they keep doing remakes maybe they'll loosen up the rules a bit to keep things interesting. The distinction between new abilities and new spells is completely arbitrary anyway.

For every spell they add they also have to add equipment that resists it and enemies that are weak and resistant to it.

Midenhall - physical offense specialist, no magic damage at all without relying on specialist weaponry
Cannock M - hybrid attacker with an emphasis on magic. his spell list will be support oriented given that he got kazing in the original game and we know that he has access to fire magic (sizz line) and zap (trailers).
Cannock F - as you said, she's likely to get all of the abilities that dont neatly fit the others like Hustle Dance and Kerplunk Dance. If she has any magic, it'll be pretty limited given that we already have two full fledged magicians.
Mookbrooke - the team magic expert and will likely get a lot of the high end spells. For offensive magic, she already gets woosh and boom in the original and potentially crack if cannock f doesnt learn it. Because she was "dogged", i think this is where nose for treasure and snoop will go.

They have spell overlap but Bianca is more offensive magic focused, Nera has a more well rounded magic pool, and Debora has the least spells (mostly utility ones) but can equip more weapons and has high strength.
The only thing wife choice affects for the kids is hair color, but I think different move pools would be cool in a remake.

Bianca with Ranger abilities and Debora with Gadabout/Superstar ones are pretty obvious (I wouldn't even mind her being a Torneko-like turn waster) but Thief for Nera is a little weird. I always thought she should get Summon/That Special Summon and other Druid-y abilities to give her a magic niche that isn't covered by the hero or daughter.

That makes sense. I wouldn't want it limited to just Thief skills, but I think having a couple would make for a bit of cute characterization. When you marry Nera, her party chat reveals her sillier/more rambunctious side. Thief abilities kind of fit that, but I imagine there would be plenty of other ways to showcase that too.

I got the 3 HD2D remake on sale. It genuinely feels like a fan project.
I also love how they could add voice acting, flashbacks, quest markers, a minimap, balance changes (typically for the worse) and character creation, but apparently character animations in battle (on the 5th iteration of the game) is where they draw the line. Of course you can't criticize this anywhere as fans will harp on you for how "faithful" the remake is, despite the aforementioned changes. It all feels so lame. I just want 12.

Its amusing how we accurate we were with the offensive magic distribution in 2HD. The surprise for me is Midenhall getting Propeller Blade.

Best in the series and it's not even close.

Is Oda really a fan of DQ? I don't remember him talking about it in volumes or interviews. I know Togashi used to play DQ back in the days but it was a long time ago and people online made a meme out of it as if he were completely obsessed with it.

Yes, easily.
I never grouped up for anything my entire time playing the game.

You ever played FFXIV? It's structured very similarly with the way you do the main story.

Yeah I playd up until Heavensward but it was too long and the gameplay wasn't engaging enough. The story was interesting but by the time I finished the vanilla game i had like 100 hours put into it and I felt like it wasn't worth it overall

Well it's definitely not as long as FFXIV's story, not even close but the structure is the same. To me I felt like I was playing a regular, single player DQ game the entire time. The most MMO thing about playing through the story is instead of party members in a regular DQ game you go to the inn and you borrow NPC versions of other people's characters as your party members.

One piece of advice, choose your race carefully.
There's no paid race changes so once you pick one you're locked in the entire time on that character.

>Sage has all of her fucking spells and Wrangler still hasn't learned his last skill
This is ridiculous. I'm too addicted to Duplic Hat shenanigans to go without a proper mage.

Well, yeah, he fell into Alefgard when the pit opened up and he pretty much went native, though old habits die hard.

I never played that One Piece RPG because I lost track of OP years ago but I liked the look of it and Oda's monster designs. I hope someone grabs him for a Toriyama-like role doing designs for some other game series eventually.

Frankly it would be insane if a manga artist born in 1975 that loved Toriyama didn’t play at least DQ 1-4. Wouldn’t be surprised if nowadays he’s the kind of guy who only plays a game once in a blue moon though. “Middle aged Japanese guys who basically just play DQ when it comes out (maybe Monster Hunter if they’re on the younger side of middle aged)” aren’t just a meme, they’re really out there.
