I'm actually surprised the series survived that long on multiple consoles and generations without turning into shit like all the other 6 gorillion 3D platformers.

Even if we inculde spin offs All4One and Qforce weren't even that bad, just subpar compared to the rest.

Dragon Quest has no bad games because it's a series that pratically doesn't innovate. Everything in it feels pretty generic and made to appeal to nostalgic people.

I personally don't like this approach, the combat feels simple in every game, the story is comfy and nice but it feels incomplete, the characters also feels underdeveloped, the exploration, although not bad, could be better, the dungeons are pretty bland and the bosses are extremely easy even if you're underleveled. And they simply don't fix those things and keep doing the exactly same mistakes every game.

I'm not saying every DQ is bad, but saying it's a series without problems or bad things is wrong. btw, played trough 4~9, heroes I & II and Builders.

The genres are completely different. DQ is all about that classical and traditional feel which the ost complements perfectly.
While I agree that some battle themes are OK at best, it has other great tracks.

No, Skyward Sword is not decent. Its problems start to appear on the fucking first hour of the game, where you do absolutely nothing and it holds your hand all the way trough, the they introduce the HUB map which is bland and has shitty exploration (it's literally worst than Wind Waker's ocean), then they show the other maps, which are just huge puzzles, they do all that while throwing cutscenes and cutscenes at the player telling a stupid story at best. Then there are the dungeons, which are designed nice and have a different themes than the common ones in the series, but that still keeps the simple and straightfoward puzzles that the other games also had and even then it still holds your hand all the way through. Skyward Sword is a 5/10 AT BEST.

Your right, to an extent. /v/ won't call it out for its problems because they have too much of a hard on for MegaTen.

The game has a ridiculous encounter rate, to the point of always being over leveled, most environments are dull and exploration is monotonous, and about every fight can be quickly solved with brain dead auto-combat. I mean, everything else is pretty cool: music, weapon variety, recruitable enemies, alignments and demon alignments. But all the problems I listed are too big of an issue and just make it a miserable experience.
SMT2 isn't much of an improvement.

The only good SMT games made are SMT 1, Raidou, Persona 3-5, and Jack Bros.

>You have to constantly change gambits or you get fucked. Using the same gambits constantly against bosses is begging to be fucked.
Not true. All you need are "attack nearest enemy" and "heal if less than X% HP." That will get you through the whole game unless you're a masochist and really want to do those trash hunting missions.

>The writer broke down and quit more than halfway into it.
No excuse. Game should have been canceled.

>Implying Balthier and Basch are shit.
They are, and Balthier was one of the worst since he's an attention-whoring faggot.

>Explain, unless you're still talking about the Gambits shit.
Being able to move is pointless when you can get hit by melee attacks from feet away. The usage of the ATB system in a game where you can move around during combat means that the only thing that separates it from playing like an MMO is the lack of multiplayer and the lack of online. ATB is a global cooldown. What's worse is that the MMO combat is forced on you via a controller instead of a mouse and keyboard, so there are far fewer inputs to work with. That makes the whole thing cumbersome.

>I just refuted all your points.
You didn't refute shit.

Dark Souls and no, 1 and 3 weren't bad games

Press-turn takes the Rocket-tag problem and puts extra emphasis on it instead of taking it away. It's entirely possible in any of the press turn games you can just die for literally no reason in a random encounter that you've defeated dozens of times before just because they got a lucky crit, or they spammed your weaknesses during a surprise round, killing you before you even have a chance to run away. When that DOESN'T happen, you'll do the same thing to the enemy.

Where is the challenge in an enemy comboing you to death? What do you learn about the system other than "Change my weakness for this section"? What do you learn about yourself when the enemy gets two criticals and that's enough to make sure you die before you hit turn one on your side?

Also, about SMT 1, to be frank, I gave it a large pass simply because I realized how old the game was and was more forgiving of it's structure due to respect for age. SMT 2 got the full brunt of my opinion because they should have started to realize problems with the system and made more efforts and attempts to fix them.

Most bosses have explicit attack patterns or statuses that you can't simply power through without buffs or a strategy.

>you can get hit by melee attacks from feet away
How? Enemies have to get in melee range for them to melee hit you. Moving around works because you can simply run from the enemy until your ATB fills, then move back towards them to get the attack off.
The MMO argument has been done before.
>the MMO combat is forced on you via a controller instead of a mouse and keyboard, so there are far fewer inputs to work with. That makes the whole thing cumbersome
This is the only legitimate argument you have made so far that isn't dumb shitflinging or complaining that something is garbage. You're just being contrarian for the sake of being contrarian.

Oh so you're talking about Press Turn inherently being shit because you get fucked over for it just as much as you fuck over the enemy with it? I would think that would make it much more of a fair system compared to other games that have you and only you benefit from it, turning entire games into repetitive curbstomps where you never get a single game over or loss in any way.
It'd say it has more of a mental factor than just a gameplay factor. Knowing that at any moment you can be wiped if you fuck up or if the enemy does just ONE little thing, makes random encounters more serious compared to those of other games. But your point about sudden game overs for no reason other than "the enemy ambushed you / got the first strike!" or random fucking crits, is still a good one - and SMT IV is a pretty fucking good example of this too.
Having enemies know to exploit your teams' weaknesses is arguably a good thing because they're coded to do the same thing that you do as the player. Otherwise you're right on your whole post. I guess in the end press turn is more subjective of a gameplay mechanic/system, but that's how a lot of things are in video games.

>Most bosses have explicit attack patterns or statuses that you can't simply power through without buffs or a strategy.
Add "cast Protect" and "cast Shell" and you'll get through them just fine. Since the game is playing itself for you, it's also leveling up for you.

>Which get you good exp items loot and money
A shame that you need a license to equip something as simple as a hat.

>That's bullshit.
Matsuno wasted Square Enix's time and money, the game didn't deserve to see the light of day and in any sane world it should have ended his career.

>That's what makes him good compared to the rest.
No it fucking does not. Balthier is a one-trick pony. "HEY GUYS DID YOU HEAR THAT I'M THE LEADING MAN? BECAUSE I'M THE LEADING MAN. DID I MENTION I WAS THE LEADING MAN?" Vaan was less annoying.

>Enemies have to get in melee range for them to melee hit you.
Yes, and moving out of the way prior to a melee attack activating is pointless since the game will make you get hit by that melee attack anyway. You were in melee range when the enemy chose to attack you, which means that you're going to get hit by a melee attack even if you're out of melee range when it activates. The enemy's character model doesn't even have to come into contact with you for you to get hit by a melee attack.

>The MMO argument has been done before.
Yes, because it's an accurate argument and you cannot refute it. That's like saying "the cape argument has been done before" regarding someone calling Super Mario World out for its cape being completely fucking broken.

The final fantasy characters (the original characters fucking count 'cause thei're just like ff) and final fantasy tier story is what makes the game cringy. Disney does it a huge favor

>Oh so you're talking about Press Turn inherently being shit because you get fucked over for it just as much as you fuck over the enemy with it?
The problem isn't that it "fucks you over", the problem is that it makes the game have absolutely no middle ground between two extreme outcomes. When the game isn't "fucking me over", it's a goddamn cake walk because as I said in the post you responded to, I do the same thing to the enemy. Which makes combat uninteresting

>I would think that would make it much more of a fair system compared to other games that have you and only you benefit from it, turning entire games into repetitive curbstomps where you never get a single game over or loss in any way.
In other games, enemies get things to compensate for it. Is this a good practice? No, not in particular. But is it fair? Sure. It winds up being equivalent in the end. At the very least, it's more fair then say running into an enemy who casts a death-all spell against the party and gets lucky and wins. That isn't fair to anyone.

>Knowing that at any moment you can be wiped if you fuck up or if the enemy does just ONE little thing, makes random encounters more serious compared to those of other games.
The only type of mentality that encourages is the art of the quick save.

>Having enemies know to exploit your teams' weaknesses is arguably a good thing because they're coded to do the same thing that you do as the player.
Except they don't go through the process of discovery that the player goes through. Instead, they know your weakness, and if they have that spell, they will spam it on that character for no reason with no explanation, giving all of their friends ample turns.

The whole system is a mess. There's not a single decent thing about it.

Only maybe the first 5 levels are "hard". After leveling up, any Kindom Hearts becomes a cakewalk.
