Besto DQ después del 8 yo creo

VIII’s still a little better imo but traditional turn based RPGs are far from dead if DQXI has anything to say about it. If you like older Final Fantasy games but don’t like the direction of newer ones, give this one a whack.

this shit saved my life i love you erik

They did Veronica dirty


Uno dei migliori JRPG sul mercato, l'interazione tra i personaggi, lo stimolante combattimento a turni e la storia semplice ma riuscita lo rendono uno degli ultimi, validi, JRPG tripla A ad oggi

I like this game a lot. The gameplay is a massive throwback, but that feels nice after so many games trying to reinvent the wheel. It looks really nice too, and the story is decent as well. The music is a big disappointment though, which really sucks.

Has a lot of what I loved from the golden era of RPGs, but the characters and writing don't quite reach that level. The soundtrack also ranges from bland to outright insufferable.

Ha sido una muy grata experiencia, Dragon Quest nunca me deja indiferente, siempre transmite mucho a través de sus historias y mantiene a buen nivel la clásica formula J-RPG que siempre tiene presente.

Excellent RPG. If you are looking for a classic, turn based RPG. This is one of the best of this generation.

Un Dragon Quest precioso pero con una de las tramas más flojas para mi gusto, y a pesar de ser conocidos por ser juegos repletos de exploración, este último título de la saga me pareció algo repetitivo, aunque eso sí, muy entretenido.

First Dragon Quest game and it didnt really win me over at all to be honest. The game is WAY to long, has too much mandatory grinding and lets not even start with the 3rd arcs plot, or the awful ost the entire game.
While it may look pretty, its certainly not a game id really go back to if im being honest with myself.

Une histoire incroyable et des personnages attachant. Je suis vraiment tombé amoureux de l'histoire, de ses personnages et de son univers en général. Les seules dragon quest auquel j'avais joué était Monster joker 1 et 2 (que j'avais adoré) sur ds et le changement est total. J'ai tellement été pris dans le jeu que je l'ai Platine et j'étais remplis de satisfaction quand j'ai eu ce dernier trophée après avoir autant accroché à l'histoire du jeu.

My first ever DQ game and has become one of my favorites overall, a truly great and lovely experience that reminds me why I love the genre.

Another dragon quest, with better visuals. It's ok if you like the classic rpg genre.

very traditional rpg with some modern qol. performs very well within this framework, with a lot of fun customization with your party composition and their builds. figuring out strategies that work well is satisfying. also includes customizable difficulty for anyone who wants a challenge.

the story is basic but told fairly well. however, i began to get impatient with the length of cutscenes by the end of the main campaign, and i failed to be particularly invested in any of the characters besides sylvando, who i love dearly.

by the way, it would've been great if they hired a composer for this game, so it could have more than 10 songs playing over a runtime of at least 60 hours...?

One of the best JRPGS you can play, took me almost 2 years to finish one playthrough.

Um espetáculo de game. A arte é fora de série, os personagens extremamente cativantes. A história, um pastelão que a gente ama. Em sua grande maioria, RPGs de turno não têm conseguido me prender, talvez seja um gênero afetado, em grande parte, pelo fator nostalgia. DQXI, por sua vez, consegue se desvencilhar dessas amarras e modernizar o gênero. Apenas dois aspectos me incomodaram um pouco (mas não ofuscam a experiência): a trilha sonora repetitiva e sexualização excessiva das personagens femininas, principalmente da Jade. Sexualizem também os masculinos, Square, por favor. Ou nenhum gênero.

To my big surprise I actually enjoyed this game even though I don't really like turn-based JRPGs.

Fine for what it was. There's a lot here that I miss from older games in the genre, but there wasn't enough for it to truly stand out either. Half the time, an idea it has, I can think of another game that executes it better. Final Fantasy VI is one such example.

On a side note, I thought the music was handled in a very misguided way; a prime example of this is when the battle theme is used during a stealth sequence.

deeeewwwwewwwweweweewewewd what a game.

La hostia pero más largo que un día sin pan

A really, really long game but I drank it to the last drop.

Faltou o endgame pra salvar a Veronica. Um dia eu rejogo.

I've 100%ed. Maybe the best in the series I've played?

What an experience. There is so much content in this older version (not playing the S version). That I didn't feel the need to play the newer version whatsoever. It feels like a complete game and no paid expansions so it bring u back to the ps2 era where when you bought a full priced game, you got all content from the get go.

- The gameplay is classic Dragon quest, incredibly fun to actually just grind but understandable if its boring compared to other modern RPGs.
- The Plot is good as its a simple plot and has some memorable elements in it. The characters is where the game truly shines.
- The OST is good for the game but not memorable outside the context of it.
