Dragon Quest Heroes, a Dynasty Warriors-style spinoff, was announced at Sony Japan's conference today.

Along with a special edition PS4 for when it releases.

I don't have a PS4 and I will want to get one eventually and that is a beautiful one. Are they region free and/or will we get it in America, pretty please Japan?

PS4 is region free but the chance of getting that in America without relying on importers is slim to none.

There's a slime-themed shirt up for sale on The Yetee for another ~2 hours.

One of the Goof Off jokes in DQ7 is "Cannibox do the Hustle? No, it doesn't have Defeat for it" and that is the pinnacle of Dragon Quest-related humor.

Pack it up boys, we're done here.

Didn't see anything about it in here, but supposedly the Dragon Quest edition PS4 comes out Dec. 11th in Japan

This special console is silver and has a matching metal slime DualShock 4 controller. You also get a metal slime that plugs into the system’s USB port and sits on the console, a 15 day ticket for PlayStation Plus, a code to download a Dragon Quest Heroes theme, and a download code for Dragon Quest Heroes. People that purchase the 49,980 yen bundle will be able to play Dragon Quest Heroes one day early.

Several places already taking preorders for the PS4.

No? How about...

Oh, I'm sorry. Still too inexpensive for you?

Maybe having it plugged in means that every time you exit a program on the PS4 it plays the running away sound. :buddy:

I forgot to link this.

You get extra rolls in that DQM mobile game by sharing your first result on facebook.

Which I did till I rolled a Slime Knight. En garde! :black101:

When is DQMSL supposed to get its English release?

I forgot I had an extra preorder for DQH (standard version). If anyone's interested and don't mind getting it a couple days later, drop me a PM.

Trying to get this to work but opening the .exe just causes the command box to crash, and running the .bat spits out a rom without any changes. Running Windows 7 Ult x64.

E: Found another randomizer that works for me, seems to work a lot like the other one. Dunno if it's the same author or a different program inspired by the romhacking one.

Thought I'd share some thoughts from trying out the DW1 randomizer the other night (the github one).

First seed, chests in the throne room were Erdrick's Token, a herb and the requisite magic key. Also the cheapest weapon I could find was a hand axe (560 gold) and Red Slimes were early game murder machines with Sleep and Hurt.

Second seed, I get to Kol in its usual spot and search the tile where the Fairy Flute usually sits.

"Thou has found Erdrick's Armor." :getin:

That randomizer could give you a seed that's impossible to complete couldn't it?

If you know the game well enough and have enough persistence, you should be able to find a way. The randomization aspects are limited to a degree to keep a game from being unwinnable.

In addition, the github randomizer guy is beginning to experiment with map generation, could prove interesting.

All the DQ7 talk got me to dust off my copy of DQ4 DS I've been playing on and off the last few months. The ways the Psaro fight encourages you to swap party members around to keep your buffs up is neat for a final boss fight.

Also every turn he wastes with that disrupting light nonsense is another where Alena and Ragnar give him the pain. :black101:
