How?

This is Dragon Quest, they've stood by their formula longer than Pokemon.
>>379330586
Japan is REALLY cheap.
>>379330586
>no voice acting
They'll never top VIII's VA, so why even try
>>379330586
Because DQ is supposed to be a retro JRPG with modern gameplay

>MIDI music
Really or are you over-exaggerating for comedic effect?
>>379330849
>with modern gameplay
Is 30 years ago modern to them?
>>379330863
who do you think does character design, faggot?
>>379330968
He's pushing the old toriyama sameface meme.
>>379330903
It's all MIDI music. The entire soundtrack. The composer said so himself.
>>379331879
Well, I believe if they use nice instruments/samples/soundfonts/whatevertheyrecalled it can still sound pretty decent.
>>379330849
>modern gameplay
Nigga DQ is old school as fuck
>>379332227
b-but you can move around in battle now!
>>379330740
Except there are much smaller studios who have voice acting in their games. It's not an issue of money
>>379330586
Midi is a language for communication of devices/instruments. It has no sound. Saying something sounds midi can't be so. It can sound like it's made using midi triggers or something but midi itself has no sound.>>379331879

Also
>ugly as fuck art style
I hate this and DBZ.
PC?
>>379330586
Good voice acting ruined rpgs.
>>379332169
Yes,but it's a big budget game so they should use an orchestra. Ni no kuni did and it sounded fantastic
MIDI was always better.
>>379330863
Be thankful they still look like old Toriyama designs and not the new ones.
why doesn't it have VA, didn't VIII have it
>>379335470
His new shit may be hideous but at least he added some new faces and shapes to his repertoire. Once upon a time his character design was literally just mix and match head shape+face+hair
ITT: Series that's never had good soundtracks or fun as fuck turnbased combat
Literally BORING, if it wasn't for the artist nobody would play this shit
>>379335776
Original PS2 VIII didn't have it. It was added to the US version. Then the 3DS port added Jap VA,
