Dragon Quest 11 Announced! [PS4/3DS (simultaneous), NX (tentative)]

I think it would be neat if there was some sort of interactivity between the 2 versions.

Something like Zelda Oracle Of Seasons/Ages, where upon beating either game, you receive a password that you can then enter into the other game.

It could give a cool little bonus (cosmetic equipment or something like that) for those of us who are planning on double dipping.
 
Have they ever changed a character from an announcement based on feedback? I think the MC's design is kind of weak. Wonder what Japan thinks about him. Would love to hear their feedback.

Huh. I really like his design and hope they don't change it.
 
Why not make a thread for it then? All that stuff does to serve in here is dillute discussion and lead to platform superiority arguments. Be more excited about Dragon Quest, not platforms
Dragon Quest games in that list is a big reason why we are excited. Stop being so anal, the entire thread is not a list sheesh. Let people have some fun, let it become a problem before you start policing threads.

While Im not really on board with all of these games its looking like this gen will be a repeat of PS2 era
We can only hope.

Some of that stuff is definitely day one like DQ11, FF15, KH3, TLG, etc...but I do hope Japanese devs see strong sales against from not only there home country, but western audiences as well. If it doesn't work, we can't say they didn't try. Now all we need is Capcom to step up with some next-gen RE/DMC/DD/Maximo!
 
Huh. I really like his design and hope they don't change it.

Yeah, I actually like it because it's pretty different from other DQ protagonists. Side note, we gotta meet up when I'm in Japan next month, man. Been ages since I last saw you, lol.

Though I hope they will implement gear customizations

Out of the clear announced titles on this list, I think there's only 2 games that I'm not getting.

R.I.P Wallet.

SE killed it.

I wonder how upset Nintendo was as they watched the conference.

I'm probably really late on this but I can't see Nintendo being upset at a flagship 3rd party title being announced for their next generation Nintendo console. I'm sure Nintendo approved of them announcing it.

edit: didn't realize they cleaned up in the PR afterwards. yeah must have been a gaffe.

Just realized this might be the first confirmation of UE4 support for NX. Which is a fantastic thing of course!

Really loving the PS4 art style, I love me some DQ art.
 
I just hope they don't make alchemy recipes use unrelated one-of-a-kind items

This really bothered me in VIII..

Nothing wrong with the strongest sword requiring an one-of-a-kind sword.. But.. Why one of the ingredients for the Metal Wing Boomerang is the game's strongest spear?
 
I can't believe it's possible but Square-Enix has made almost everyone happy with this announcement.

Even despite Horii's previous comments I knew it was coming to the 3DS. It just makes too much sense.

PlayStation fans are happy, and Nintendo fans are super duper happy.

Now we can all revel in the game instead of threads of fighting. Dragon Quest fans United is a beautiful thing.

Dat 3DS version is pure magic. Incredible use of the two screen display, I tell you what.
 
I personally think the protag is indeed the Dragon Lord himself from DQ1 (& 3). They share the same outfit color. I'm expecting this to be like SW episodes 1-3.
I also think since logo is extremely similar to OG DQ1, (just the Dragon figure is reversed). SE will wrap-up the series once.

(They'll continue the series of course).

Well it's not they like they announced it at the same time as the other versions. It was said after everything else. It didn't come across as a mistake. Their backtracking kinda reeks of a wink wink nudge nudge situation if you ask me.
 
I was shocked that they did 2D and 3D at the same time on two different screens. Totally unique and unexpected. You can play it however you like.

I just know I will play it both ways. Perhaps switch off each dungeon.

It's seriously the best use of the dual screen set up I've ever seen.

Now I wish they would re-release the entire series on the 3DS with 8-bit graphics on the lower screen and the new graphics on top.
 
Just imagine how a brand new final fantasy would be with this the DQXI style. Fully 3D on top and 2D on the bottom.

Would be incredible.

When put like that ... It's pretty crazy. I hope most/ all of these actually release and are as good as we hope (or better) :)
 
Dark Cloud 3 instead of Suikoden 6?

....

I can see a DC3 over Suikoden. The ideas that could come from a more modern DC are more exciting to think about than what could come from a Suikoden.

On this note I would rather have a Breath of Fire, Vagrant Story, or Parasite Eve.
 
Dark Cloud 3 instead of Suikoden 6?

....

I wish Suikoden 6 will take place in Harmonia or Zelant Kingdom + Dukedom of Gaien.

Yeah, everyone turned out happy in the end, rarity nowadays in the gaming industry.
 
below 150 thousand first month. For consoles in Japan in particular, i'm thinking they will be looking closely at the player base.

On the Japanese blogs, i'm already seeing tons of "not buying cause its not on PS3/Vita", "3DS is better cause its 3DS" ect.

And a whole lot of gloating about NX. It seems all there is these days is fanboy clashes between Nintendo fanboys and Sony fanboys in Japan. A whole lotta "wwww goki" and "wwwww boo-chan"

If DQXI doesnt pull people over from ps3/vita over to ps4, then i guess we'll be seeing people sticking to 3ds for this game then

I do wish that DQ threads eventually cease to be proxies for console war discussions. We're taking baby steps.
 
I just love how a series everyone expects to be "too old school" can still come up with surprises such as the 3DS version with its dual aesthetics. At least that's my first impression.

After giving it more thought, I wonder it would be better to the style switch on the fly (with a button press?) rather than both being displayed simultaneously.

I'm open to any gameplay impact. Assuming I didn't miss anything from the announcement.
 
Square Enix has taken to heart being called utter shit for years, and now we got Kingdom Hearts 3, FF 7 remake, new proper epic Dragon Quest, even Nier 2 for crying out loud.

Hopefully there will be good space between heavy hitters like FFXV, FFVIIR, KHIII, DQXI, etc. It's great that jRPG is coming back but I don't want the market to be so saturated that people get burnt out with the genre. I want all of the to do well.

I find it funny the the square pr team is trying to backtrack the NX announcements since it's obvious, they were not mean't to make that announcement at the event.
