Does DQ7 3DS have an in game bestiary? Already getting it, just curious cause I like those in RPGs and most of the recent DQs have had them.

Brother Entropy posted:not right away but the story eventually gives you a bestiary item Ah that's rad. It's a small thing but I've always loved those things in games, I'm normally not that bad about collectathon stuff but give me a bestiary, especially one with funny lore, and it's crack to me and I will play the game longer and enjoy it more.

Builders demo is out in the PAL territories. It's weird seeing this kind of game made with an actual budget and experienced team. Great, but weird.

I've run into a problem. I've beaten Al Bhalad and have got the hints to go to the next island, but I'm short a tablet shard. The tablets hints are saying nothing and from the guides I've found the only one I think I may have missed is the one in the now destroyed evil semblance. Anyone run into this or have an idea of how to fix it?

Alxprit posted:Are you absolutely sure you can't just access another island at this point? Where are you at in your "Recent Developments"? I can compare and see if there's anything you might have missed. This actually fixed it thank you. I'd been using the guy at the Shrine for tablet hints and had forgotten about the "Next Tablet" option in the menu. That pointed me to one I'd missed at Alltrades in the past. Cheers.

JustJeff88 posted:There's a mean little part of me that's wondering how many complaints the DRM for the PC version is going to get from paying customers as well. A ton. The better question is whether there'll be reasons beyond (admittedly not entirely unjustified) annoyance at having this foisted on paying customers. Denuvo is usually fine but some devs really botch it.

Yeah, I'm telling Square to do that any time they ask for feedback I guess. Show them other big companies do it to no issue. That said I'm not too bothered by Denuvo, the only time I've heard reliable reports of it causing issues was where the dev implemented it really poorly (there was a game, I think it was Rime, where the dev set Denuvo to phone home thousands of times a minute instead of like once a week like is recommended. That caused issues but that was a developer misconfiguring Denuvo not Denuvo having a built in problem). I'm more worried about standard console port wonkiness and probably getting the PS4 version for that reason.

Twenty some hours in and it just keeps getting better. Also on the VA my favourite bit so far is Rab's MacDuck Scottish bellowing "Let the darkness take ye" and "Hand over yer soul" when he casts dark spells.

uiru posted:Now I'm wondering if I should've played FFXIV. I mostly avoid MMOs these days, but DQXI is making me wish I could try DQX. Is FFXIV fun? Is it mechanically different from WoW? It's my favourite MMO, and yeah it's quite different from WoW mechanically. Also it plays well on a controller (though if you get it on ps4 you'll still want a keyboard for chat, bluetooth keyboard as cheap as chips now though). There's a free trial to level 35 though the game really picks up at 50 which is quick to reach these days, the goon guilds are on Excalibur for America, and they are very big, active and friendly (apparently it's got the largest goon community after EVE?). There's a big Euro guild on Omega and a small group of SEA-Ausgoons on Tonberry though a lot of us just play with the Americans or Euros. It's by far the best written MMO ever, the first expansion Heavensward might be the best written FF content. Also completely opposite to DQ11 the music is absolutely amazing and the largest soundtrack in gaming.

Broken Cog posted:Does it beat the Rayman 3 OST in length? Because IIRC, that was over 8 hours long. The 1.0 sound track had 5 hours, the 2.0 sound track had nearly 7, the 3.0 soundtrack added another 5 and this doesn't include 4.0 or the vast amount of 2.x, 3.x and 4.x music. It got the record for the most original composition in a game before the most recent expansion in Feb 2017. And that doesn't include all the classic FF arrangements in it.

Saigyouji posted:It's also worth noting that the world record wasn't actually for the game, but for Masayoshi Soken personally, as he's composed almost the entire 2.x-4.x soundtrack himself. (The main exception being the main themes, which are Nobuo Uematsu's work.) It's absurdly varied too, classical, folk, pop, rock, baroque, big band, jazz, classical Japanese, classical Chinese, choral hymns (it's FF so of course there's loads of this mixed into a lot of things), like half a dozen kinds of metal, Mongolian folk music, sea shanties, string pieces. poo poo's nuts. And it';s weird I've only just found a liquid metal slime like after flying. Had terrible luck with them.

chaosapiant posted:So I've bought and am starting to play DQXI on my IBM Compatible Personal Computer. If I like this game, and so far I do, what other games should I look into getting? I see 7 and 8 are on the DS store. Are 1-6 and 9 worth getting? Looks like lots of them are available on Ipad as well. 8 is the most like this one and incredibly good, 4-6 are all really good for their time, 5 in particular is held in high regard. Have good iOS ports too, 4 in particular you want the iOS not the DS one due to weird cuts in the DS one. 9 is a weird beast that's based heavily on a multiplayer scene that never materialised outside Japan. 1-3 were NES era RPGs and the iOS ports have weird issues. 7 is incredibly long and I couldn't get through it. If you have a Switch Dragon Quest Builders is a fun as hell take on Minecraft with more direction and questing. A Sometimes Food fucked around with this message at 17:22 on Sep 10, 2018 |

GrandpaPants posted:I need Colourful Cocoons for recipes, but nothing seems to drop it commonly and I can't find a resource node for it? The item description says it's found in Insula Centralis but...it isn't? Is this a post-game (which really should just be Act 3) thing? I found them off a tree in one of the flight locations, I think the one near the manglegrove.

Ytlaya posted:I kinda wish stealing wasn't a thing, because I can't stop obsessively trying to steal from every mob I encounter (or at least the ones that have items that seem like they might be used in crafting), and Erik's stealing success rate can be pretty abysmal (it's sometimes taken me like 10 tries). I mean, that's an order of magnitude better than any other DQ thief.

Saxophone posted:If you're talking about the pyramid, apparently a couple of the blocks used to form corners in the interior walls don't count as blocks for the making of rooms. So if you're using the existing pyramid wall as one of your walls, you need to run behind it and tear out the corner blocks. Roofs on everything, except one big open space room that I use when I'm in a hurry usually.

I've seen a lot of Japanese fanart of New Vegas so this holds up. My understanding is wrpgs and first person shooters have a diehard super nerd audience there same as we got weeaboos obsessed with only the most anime of games.

Phayray posted:I got DQ11 on Switch late last month as an early Christmas present to myself, and I may have just snuck in the best decision of 2019 right at the end - what a game (my first DQ game)! I love all the little details and dialog quips - I just got to the part where YOU GET THE FLYING WHALE! and Serena saying "Is that a flying fish?...no, that's a whale!" There are a lot of little moments like that, that get a grin out of me. Just a fun-rear end game. Dragon Quest is a great series. If you want another one the phone ports for 4-6 are shockingly good.

Last Celebration posted:Like someone else said, stealing in Act 1 is kind of helpful for like, forge items if you don’t want to grind but nothing really stands out. I think one of the rabbit robber guys have some gloves that improve your steal rate which you can get with decent odds when Erik’s psyched up (or whatever it’s called it’s been a while) Cheers. Knew about the bosses was just curious if there were any cool drops to look out for. Like I remember 8 had a really good bow near the thief town.

I square away the "time travel means you either annihilate or abandon the future timeline depending on if it follows Back to the Future or Dragonball rules" thing by just thinking it's not a purely material universe and maybe it's the same soul even if you time travel so this actually does fix things without destroying the original future.

RareAcumen posted:I just use the Avengers Endgame explanation for it. Isn't that just Dragonball? They go to alternate realities and grab stones to fix the damage in their original universe but don't actually abandon their original world cause they return and resurrect everybody. Everything still happened they just raised the dead. So you're saying you just imagine the hero going back to the original world after act 3 somehow? Which okay yeah that's a good ending too so I respect that.
