Ok, I preordered Dragon Quest Heroes because I am a bad person.

I liked Hyrule Warriors so much, and Heroes seems different but similarly good.

I think pre-ordering this one makes you a good and decent human being, since who knows if they're factoring pre-orders into their decision of if we ever get more Dragon Quest over here.

Pre-orders, or actual sales numbers?

Couldn't tell you one way or the other, but I don't believe in taking chances when more English Dragon Quest is on the line.

I don't think Square ever said that Dragon Quest Heroes sales will factor into their decision to bring over future DQ titles to the west.

...but they never denied it either.

They didn't say that future games will DEPEND on it, but that it will certainly factor into their decision.

They basically remade the entire game and also made it much less of a slog, AFAIK.

I wonder how hard it is to get hold of a DQ7 PSX disc. I know I used to own it a thousand years ago, but at this rate, I'll never be able to play the game on a more modern system. I guess it'd still be called Dragon Warrior...

...oh well shucks, it's a steal at 139.99

That's for new. You can get it used for $40.

The only major complaints I have is that it takes an hour or two to really get going (around the end of Caliburgh), the shop/alchemy interface is kinda bad (Seriously? I can only get one thing at a time?), and kill quests can seriously gently caress off.

And I kinda regret choosing the male MC.

Can you ever use the other MC if you don't choose them?

They have their respective main game scenarios and post game scenarios, but the meat of each are the weekly tournaments and wifi casual/ranked battles that occur, as well as online street passing and trading, etc.

I mean, I still got close to 80 hours out of the first one completely offline, and I didn't even finish everything. If that's not the "meat" of the game, then there must be an absurd amount of online content.

The Final Chapter never got better. It's the only one I rushed through because it was just bland and awful. Everything else I took my time and explored for so this is the first one I got the challenge of beating it quickly done.

what? the final chapter was great. certainly better than the garbo second chapter at least. i mean i beat the speed one too, but only because sleep wasn't at all necessary.

Why wouldn't they port the competent 3DS remakes? I guess that will eventually come. Although to be honest the remakes were underwhelming and I have a lot of love for the original's charm.

i'm a weirdo who prefers the gbc ones, so i'm more excited about this than porting the remakes
