I’ve been waiting for this to drop from the first trailer. Fantastic remake with a lot of tools to help first time players.

Anyone else playing?

    I adore the first trilogy of DQ games but I’m holding off cause I don’t like or trust SE anymore (plus, denuvo, ugh).

    I will say, it’s a better experience to play 1 thru 3 in order with no prior knowledge of what makes them a trilogy. Having 3 stand alone kind of misses that “oh fuuuuuuuck” realization I got to experience (and subjected a friend to, who has yet to forgive me lol). It’s what made 3 one of my favorites next to 5 and 11.

    Just started! It’s been a minute since I played the Gameboy Color version, but the orchestra versions of the music are immediately familiar.

    I never played Dragon Quest, but these remakes make me very hopeful that we’ll see a Chrono Trigger remake similar to these.

    Would prefer ff6 in this style, imo the greatest final fantasy ever made, moreso than the overrated ff7. FF6 deserves some love, the music, the story, the combat and blitz mechanics, the scale of it all is just so damn impressive for a 2d jrpg.

    I might pick it up in the near future. I don’t have much nostalgia for the NES Dragon Quest games, but this one looks amazing.

    If they remake DQV and VI in this style I will buy it in a heartbeat! And yes, I know V had two remakes already, but none of them are available on a modern platform.

    Due to my financial situation I shouldn’t be buying any games right now, but this is so tempting to buy anyway.

    I want it and even though I have the money I’m not spending $60 American on it. Same deal with the new Secret of Mana game.
