No orchestra tracks though, so it’s a trade off, hope the voices are like DQ8

the japanese versions don't have the orchestral score either becuase sugiyama wants to sell cds and tickets to his concerts in japan, in addition to hating the slandering western barbarians who insist that unit 731 comited crimes or that the invasion of manchuria wasn't wholly an act of self defense against chinese agression.

6 is the most difficult of the series because if you aren't focusing on certain jobs it makes the final boss incredibly hard and drat near impossible. Kinda bullshit since you only gain job xp from number of battles won and I like experimenting with the goofy classes. Everything up to that was fun though, every boss was beaten with like 1 party member alive.

7 was a real slog but it's notorious for being a long game so I kinda had to expect it. Still my least favorite DQ tho.

i liked the 3ds remake of 7 a lot more than 6. i never played the ds version of 6 tho only snes, but the basic grind for classes is probably the same .

already got it on pc and was just curious, but its hosed up that it was the first system it was announced for and now no one knows if it's ever coming out

they announced it for nx before anyone knew that the switch would be 2 android phones taped together unable to run unreal engine games at more than 10 fps

playing dragon quest VI was epic because it was a fan snes translation and sometimes you'd go to some corner of the map on your flying bed and some NPC would be all "dialogue box 7854!" and I was enlightened

I remember that. Iirc most of the main story was translated but you could revisit old towns much later and thered be new dialogue but it would be stuff like that or gibberish

I’ve never played a DQ game but this looks very awesome. How quick are common battles completed? Is this a good game for someone new to the series?

they don't take too long and you can [[and probably should imo] leave your party on auto battle for most battles except bosses. the options you get usually work pretty well.

thats becasue dq9 was a weird storyless game with bad procedural [?]quests and most of the cool stuff was designed around living in a country where half the population can go to shibuya on a sunday and 50 million ppl could all do the weird multiplayer stuff over streetpass

the next person to call the sequenced music midi is going to face my gunblade. also this score seems way worse than before, at least the new compositions. all the old tracks are still good. i don't think the orchestral arrangements for the new stuff are as good as the eariler games either oh well. sugiyama is 90 years old or something. hopefully they replace him for dq12 in 2026

Oim still playing this game insanely slowly and the sand boss in gallipolos on hard monsters seems insanely unfair he does and air sand attack that hits all my level 14 characters for 1/2 their health and then immediately follows up with another attack sometimes sand again which straight up kills veronica and selena before I can even move. Fuuuu

I never really respec, I kinda just go with whatever default weapons the party show up with. Seems to work okay.

I'm doing spears on selena becuase i assume it has that 50/50 crit chance move in there plus her sister has wands already

Jul 8, 2003

my morning jackass posted:

I didn’t initially because of the hit to magical mending but now I think I may switch since her clothes and accessories add to that now anyways. Are spears really that good for crit?

Idk. The old games have a specific spear skill that gives you either a miss or a crit 50/50 good for metal slimes and sometimes a hail mary move. Im assuming its the ? in the spear skill grid but I dont know for sure since i havent unlocked it. Plus you can always respect pretty ez tbh

the tentacular was a real pain in the rear end on harder monsters but i beat him by completely respecing veronica [got her vim ability that doubles her magic power] and sylvando to get hustle dance since (u can go thru the lithness tree to get the first showmanship piece, then respc the lithness for more showmanship points. that's life hax folks. everyone probably figured that out 2 months ago, also].no one else has an aoe heal spell at level 24-25 yet. i forgot to use sylvandos spare points to buy his slap skill again tho oops. veronica only died once and i only had to use 5 ofthe 7 magic waters i had epic. the twisteh army marches fuken on

once you've amassed enuff coins its also impossible to lose which is cool

a lot of the new songs aren't very good. this is probably becasue they were written by a 90 year old man who can't stop talking about how gays and koreans need to be tossed into tokyo bay, and how you need to lock up chinese ppl in shuttered yodabashi cameras [japanese version of walmart....good place for a black site]. the sound fonts for the sequenced score are also absolutely awful. the default snes trumpet sound from almost 30 years ago sounds better

the magic key boss fight on harder monsters is the most hosed up yet, her finger flicks always crit and its a garunteed 1hko on everyone but the hero and jade, her laser beams do 80 damage, normala attack deos 80 damage, and she gets 3 moves and still moves before me most of the time even with decelerate and accelerate thank yo u game
