Holy chit this game (Dragon Quest 11)

[ChelshireCat]

Second moment I have cried my bloody eyes out in this game.

Emotional fukking rollercoaster and one of the greatest JRPG’s of all time, for real.

If you are a fan of JRPG’s then you need to play this game now.

[MadFury]

I haven't finished it yet

Kinda feel to out of it now to pick it up again

[ChelshireCat]

Don’t be daft! It remind you of the major story plot points in case you have forgotten where you were.

This game has hurt my heart with it’s darn emotional gut-wrenching story. Which I was not really expecting from a game where 99/100 characters are copy and pasted from DBZ (Bless you Toriyama).

[Destor]

It's that good eh? I love the DQ series but haven't played this one yet

[drvillain]

when does it get good. Seems kinda bland

[GodlessWonder]

Never played any of the DQ games but may give this a shot

[MadFury]

I think when you get involved in the story and characters a little further in the game

First few hours I wasn't feeling it either

Ah that's right; the game does that when you load! I'll try and pick it up again

The art style is what got me into this game as it reminded me of Dragonball lol

[OttomanEmpire]

It's a good game, but Dragon Quest VIII is waaaay better and the absolute best in the series. Dead srs.

That;s the only one I played in the series, and played it when it came out. Got the best gear where you had to camp those slots/casino i think and also camped those rare silver blobs for best xp.

This. I always planned on it since DQ is one of the big jrpgs but just never got around to it.

not worth it bro. dragon quest is literally the generic of all generics lol like the first 3 were good, then after that it's like the cookie cutter of jrpgs

[dcbone30]

The game was pretty good. I really don't like the over the top flamboyant stuff with Silvando. You literally March in a pride parade for like 15 minutes between towns, it was pretty awful to sit through.

I always thought the weird humor/creepy weibo stuff took away from these DQ games. If they took a serious tone like FFX or something I think it could be top notch despite the cartoony-ness.

[TenEngineer]

One of my favourite games

[Bracket199]

Heard very good things. Wish I bought it when on the Steam Summer Sale

[Muzzlrpress]

Were you unaware of Dragon Quest until now?

Also, I'm guessing you have Super Serena now?

C'mon man. How can you not like Dragon Quest puns? In DQ9 you look for a missing abbot from Alltrades Abbey named Jack. When you finally find him he's turned evil and goes "I am no longer Jack of Alltrades. I am now Master of Nu'un!"

[BearyManilowe]

Lolwut? It's no more cookie cutter than any other JRPG and the characters are interesting

I agree about the ******* sht. That was pretty much my only problem with the game. Other than that it was one of the best games I've played, definitely one of the best modern day RPGs. No DLC bs either, just a full on game like the good ole days. I ended up getting the platinum for it a while back. The cartoonish and humorous style works well for it though and fits the game very well. Although I definitely wasn't ready for the feels and serious parts either, the writing is top notch. FFX is my favourite game of all time.

[ArtistBrahs]

I've been working with EPIC games and using their tech for over a decade, great company.

They are always looking out for smaller indie devs and were the first major commercial engine to allow anyone to use and profit.

Why would anyone hate them? Because they challenge the steam monopoly that also rips everyone off with a 30% revenue share, and went and made there own store that is dirt cheap on profit share?

[MountainLion84]

This was my jam as a kid.... are the new games fun?

[dcbone30]

haha I dunno man. I guess I'm not into less serious RPG's. Maybe not even that, but the game is just a roller coaster. The creepy old man and his "grimoire", the sexualized outfits you can get the girls, everything revolving around silvando, but then there's some pretty serious stuff that is pretty awesome but everything else is just so out of tune with the seriousness. Maybe I'm just all or nothing on the humor. I also have fond memories of DQ1/2/3 kinda being darkish. Saving the princess in the pitch black dungeon from the dragon from DQ1 was terrifying when I was a kid.

I bought dq8 when it first came out 16 years ago and this **** stays with me at how stupid/goofy/immersion breaking it is. First 1 minute with the VO of this dumb boss

[dankydank]

I played this because I’ll play any turn based rpg, my favorite genre of all time. This game has 0 difficulty to it, you spam the same move from start to finish for pretty much the entire game. The story is the most generic bland garbage I’ve played recently besides the Tales series. You literally play as “The Chosen One/Hero” on a quest to beat “The Dark One” LMAO. Why is the Dark One out to destroy the world? No one knows but he’s the evil dark one and the hero must beat him. Literal 1st grade tier writing. Some side quests have their moments and theres a few funny moments that would trigger SJW cucks but overall it was a slug to push through since it takes 80 ish hours to beat the game without grinding. If you want turn based, games like Pillars of Eternity, Divinity Original Sin, and Valkyria Chronicles are much better

It's not the chosen one, it's the loomeenarree! I enjoyed it, took 86 hours to platinum (max rank and getting all clothes was the grind). Valkyria Chronicles is better though.

I love idiots like you that break games down to their most rudimentary baseline in the story and use that as a knock. And the compare this game to Pillars of Eternity or Divinity like those two games are ANYTHING remotely similar. DQ11 fans and DoS fans could be entirely different people as there is next to no overlap beyond "turn based" which is a loose description of the DoS combat.

[ChelshireCat]

Finished the story a while back but finally moppe dup the last few little bits and got my platinum.

Loved it.

That was my first ever Dragon Quest game, so now gearing up to play some of the others. Any recommendations on which one to go through next?

General consensus I believe is that VIII (PS2) and III (PS1? I think) are the best titles in the series. I personally thought 8 was great so I'd recommend that.

[blissful88]

Do I-do I-II buy it...? $60 it better not sux

No, V is considered the best one.

[sooby]

Been wanting to play this, but there are so many other games, yet so little time I find myself being hard pressed to get around to it, but will eventually.

what DQ games would you guys recommend I play first?

Man, DQ8 was my CHIT DAWG. Went all in on the monster fighting arena. Did the endgame stuff n chit. Loved it.
