I think the new stories are just fine. Dont add much really but more dqxi can't hurt.

I don't mind it now that I know I have to do this for all 7 party members Although for anyone jumping into it for the first time?? Might be jarring. I love the DQ4 style opening where you basically play the first hour of a jrpg back to back w/different characters while learning their personalities/backgrounds before they all meet up and finally become a proper Party But to do that right after a pretty major story cliffhanger?? IDk.

And also the fact I had just got Divide on him before the end of Act 1. Enemies were a breeze Compared to Jade's tho.. I could seriously see someone getting hardlocked in Jade's substory. I went into it heavily overleveled, and I still spent several turns healing myself/defending bc the boss kept targeting me relentlessly. I never actually died so idk if the NPCs will revive you or what, but still. It was just frustrating

The intermissions would be better if you did them immediately before (or, for that matter, immediately after) encountering each of your buddies. In the original version, the impact of going directly from the end of Act 1 to the Last Bastion / Heliodor scenario is so drat good, and it's strengthened by not knowing if the rest of the world is even more hosed up or what.
...but is it art?

I liked it as a first time player, felt like the filler side stories between big anime arcs, giving you a breather and some hints at things to come before throwing you into the next epic. I can definitely see how the jarring Hero start would be effective though

DQ is so good at the emotional gut punches and such in general, when 5 comes full circle with the "Everything is going to be ok." from the start of the game is amazing. you know what the twist is going to be, you can see it coming, but when it finally happens, jesus christ
