No word on exclusivity either.

So probably they are not sure at this point

>Dragon Quest XI possibly a PS4 exclusive in the west
Unlikely, considering Square likes money more than any other company out there. Prepare for maybe 200,000 units to be sold on all three systems in America.
>>
>They are going to make a big effort to localize the game and only bring one version

Sounds like Square

How does dragon quest sell outside of Japan? I've never really thought of it as having much of a western audience
>>
>>385713379
>How does dragon quest sell outside of Japan?
It doesn't. Even SaGa sold more than any DQ game, but got canned for a Western release when the latest installment came out on the Vita last year. How DQ even gets here is beyond me.

The 3DS version plays completely differently from the PS4 version does it not? Seems highly unlikely.
>>
>>385712581
>What happened?
Sony now pays companies not to make ports rather than paying for exclusivity.

You are a retard and here's why:
the official playstation channels always host trailers for PS4 only, even if it's a multiplat like doom or cod. They don't have any obligation to mention other platforms on their own channel. Thanks for listening.

Nintendo would have to localize the 3DS version if they wanted it.

Square has to focus in marketing the PS4 version. It's the right thing to do.

Hate to agree with some, but SE is dumb enough to only release one version in the West. Regardless, the PS4 version is top of my priority list, would like the 3DS and even Switch versions too, willing to tripledip because I enjoy the series and also want to support it.
>>
>>385714036
TLG is better than Ico but not better than SotC

Both of these statements are wrong.

9 sold well over a million copies.

I still think Ico is the best of the three.

So there is not fucking excuse
>>
>>385714770
Publishing. Nintendo has published all of the 3DS Dragon Quest games but I don't think they'd want to publish it when a PS4 version is coming up.
>>
Oh jheeze, it's not like they purposely didn't make a PS4 game so they could shill it to the 55 million ps4 units in the west and hope for similar success like Persona/Nioh/XV and Nier right?

Of course Square is gonna shill the PS4 version, there is no switch version yet.
>>
>>385713589
Only because it was a direct sequel to the best game in the series.
>>
>>385714871
Square will publish it. It's a major DQ game this time and they will hope for decent PS4 sales in the west since the market is bigger there. They won't let any other company publish it when they can.

I am talking about western localization, yes.
>>
>>385715756
Nintendo had to publish/localize both, and it took years for them to do so. SE isn't the brightest when it comes to doing their own shit, so it's not farfetched to believe they would only localize one version of XI.
>>
The Switch version hasn't even been shown yet so Square/Nintendo probably wants to wait until they have something to show before they announce it's localization. The 3DS localization might come with the announcement of the the Switch version localization.

Difference being nobody gives a fuck about the 3DS in the West now
>>
>>385716260
I think that is a big factor, that and wheter or not nintendo wants to still fully support the 3ds when the switch is around, because if they are going to fully support both, they're going to cannibalize each other sales.
>>
>>385716420
Nintendo has no reason to kill 3DS till sales go below a threshold, that being said, net sales wise the past Q, Switch (hardware and software) sold 3 times what 3DS did
>>
>>385716597
DQXI probably won't release until the end of 2018 and by that time the 3DS will most likely be dead.

Name some JRPG example where they expected millions. Your example is clearly straight out of the tomb raider shot where i think 3 or 5 million was bad to them.
>>
>>385717405
Just speculation, but a lot of DQ 3/DS games wouldn't have been released if it wasn't for Nintendo. Then Sony loves to buy timed exclusives.
>>
They'll probably gauge their decision on preorder numbers.

Can't recall a successful PS4 JRPG outwith FFXV, 2bh, and even then god knows what SE's expectations are. These are the people thay refused to localise DQIX on a platform with (at the time) an install base of 120 mil, and were allegedly unhappy at the results, so who knows

I think I have to break this down slowly for retards like you.

No. No Dragon Quest game released in the West will ever have the same orchestrated soundtrack as the Japanese versions because they are all performed by some Japanese Orchestra that Square would have to pay more royalties to if they were to use their music in any other region.

The MIDI soundtrack is perfectly fine, and the only difference is that it uses sampled instruments on a timed track rather than just a traditional audio file.

It was when it still was called Versus XIII, then development hell happened. Even thought there was progress later as XV, the entire project was shaky. Too much of a risk to put too much money into something that could still end up being vaporware and I'm sure SE needed sales from the MS version more than some quick exclusive bucks.

DQ is a by-the-books JRPG series. The stories are all fairly generic, but well written. It's not groundbreaking or game changing by any means, but it's always comfy and enjoyable.

The games are largely independent from one another, with two trilogies existing (1,2,3 and 4,5,6).
If you want to try it out, it's recommended to start with III or V, you can try VIII but being one of the later ones it might ruin the older games for you.

ran the same as the shitty vita version it was a port off
>>
>>385720081
That's because Omega Force is fucking terrible at optimization. Even the PS4 version dips constantly. Not a good example

have you seen Fate/Extella by Marvelous, which is basically another Musou game on the Switch? Runs WAY better

DQ is always niche, it's part of why it's consistently good.

I don't care one way or the other for voice acting, in fact I hope they don't do it because it might mean future games writing suffers to accommodate VA.
>>
>>385720365
And yet the switch struggled

>>385719956
I think 'heavy work' is an overstatement. They're probably working on a mobile port anyway, Switch version would be a better version of that.

this
switch can never handle with ps4 version this new DQ
and I think DS version will not sell in west so thats only option for them to release only ps4 version in west
though maybe they will release the game in steam
>>
>>385720151
Dubbing it isn't going to suddenly make people learn DQ exists in the West, it doesn't add anything of tangible or even intangible value. Why waste time and resources on something that doesn't belong in the game, and doesn't improve the experience?

>>
>>385720460
let me put it in simple words

the only way you can generate interest in the game is if you put voice acting in it cause otherwise people would only be willing to pay 20 bucks for it and nothing more cause it would feel like a cheap as indie game cause they weren't able to afford voice actors.
a few neets buying at 60 bucks wont mean shit

DQ9 generated a lot of interest and it had no voice work at all, adding a dub isn't going to suddenly generate interest.
>>
Nintendo needs to answer.
>>
>>385720460
>Why waste time and resources on something that doesn't belong in the game, and doesn't improve the experience?
JRPGs have had voice acting since the fucking PS1, at least now they're able to afford better VAs. I literally see no reason why you would have a problem with them adding it to DQ11 especially when DQ8 3DS gave you the option to mute them.
>>
>>385720476
VA is an unnecessary addition and only serves to inflate a games budget and worsen the writing.

If all games went back to text and bleeps exclusively, there would be a huge increase in writing quality.
As it stands now, the West's obsession to have everything voiced has contributed to the state games are in today; especially RPGs, where we have gone from full thought distinct sentences to (A) YES (B) NO (X) EVIL (Y) SARCASTIC YES.

If you want that, fine. Go play any of the countless games that cater to you, but fuck off trying to turn DQ in to your cookie cutter dogshit.

Of course it can. Why do people think the PS4 is that powerful in the first place? It was outdated when it launched and that was years ago. I don't get why people always talk about technology when they don't understand it, you just look like fucking retards.
>>
>>385720732
More like DQ8 generated a lot of interest so people bought DQ9 in anticipate that it'll be as good as 8. But it wasn't, so people got disappointed and didn't buy any of the games after 9 no more.

Those were basically EoL games on their respective platforms though, of course they squeezed every ounce of performance out of them. I'm sure we'll get Switch games eventually that are like, 'how are they doing that?'. It might overheat and explode, but that remains to be seen.

Considerably? No. So far there haven't been any game where there's any real difference between them. Anyone who thinks DQ is too demanding for Switch simply don't know what they're talking about.
>>
>>385713379
8 and 9 sold well. The DS remakes flopped and I have no idea how the 3DS remakes did. But since they announced localization for 11, it seems that they, and heroes, did good enough.

Nintendo doesn't handle the 3DS games localization. They only fund it

You can kinda compare Mario Oddysey to Ratchet & Clank just to see how much the Switch is weaker

I'm just waiting until they actually tell us more information. Normally Sony loves putting "exclusives" on everything even if its just timed. And that video was just the same one SE released themselves without any gaming system logo. Worse case they are dropping 3DS (because SE are a bunch of morons) and just release PS4 and Switch version. I hope not since the 3DS is the best version in my eyes.

It isn't a excuse anymore. Localizing in 4 other languages seems like a big undertaking, specially for DQ when the games tends to be heavily brimming with text.

The text is simplified for literal children, and you can't even talk to all NPCs. It isn't a big undertaking at all, it's just the usual SE being cheap fucks as usual.

I understand not wanting to bother with the Switch, but the 3DS still has a healthy install base. Did recent DQ games bomb on the 3DS or is there some issue with the publishing?
>>
>>385713618
Basically what happened is that Sony started throwing their weight around in the nineties by paying third parties to support Playstation in the nineties. This is the real reason third parties all dropped Sega and Nintendo, it never had anything to do with cartridges or anything.

However, when Microsoft came along and started doing the same thing, Sony found it increasingly difficult to negotiate exclusivity. This leads to a weird situation in which Sony and Microsoft pay tens of millions of dollars every year to third parties to get support.

>“The business model that we had wasn’t working anymore. We were starting to make sizeable losses, so we had to change. In the past, you could be successful by being a bit opportunistic. The Wii platform, ten years ago, was so successful and anything you launched on it was selling. Even with some lesser qualitative stuff, you were able to be successful. But that was all changing and you could only sell quality products. We had Mario & Sonic back in those days, and that game was selling so much that a number of other titles could afford to underperform. But when the sales of Mario & Sonic, and the Wii in general, began to slow down, it became very visible that we had to change.”

And I'm wrong?
>>
>>385732306
Oh, it already is, believe me.

A major reason that more third party developers have not gone out of business yet is BECAUSE of Sony and Microsoft footing the bill for things they really shouldn't be.

>>385732618
Right, third parties make excuses for not developing for Nintendo consoles, but the real reason is because they Nintendo isn't willing to fall for the same trap that Microsoft and Sony have. Look at Bayonetta 2, and compare that to the original Mass Effect, which was at one point an Xbox exclusive.

Bayonetta 2 will NEVER release on Non Nintendo platforms, because Nintendo took the steps to guarantee that it would never happen.

3rd parties don't like Nintendo. Companies only agree to work with Nitnendo because Nintendo agreed to give them a shitload of money for exclusivity whereas with Sony they make exclusives because they get a shitload of money and they also like Sony on a personal level.

3rd parties like to take Nintendo's generosity and completely fuck with them. Look at Ubisoft. Iwata was a great spokesperson for 3rd parties for Nintendo, especially Japanese ones. Seems like when he died they stopped caring.

Why hasn't Dragon Quest Heroes II for Switch come out yet?
>>
>>385734198
3rd parties know they can make the games they want and not be scrutiinized if it's too violnet or too sexual. Where Nintendo still carries the sstigma that it'a a conosle for little kids. I remember the CEO of Level-5 said something similar as to why Ni No Kuni was not on a Nintendo console and he said something along the lines that Nintendo systems are meant for kids games like Yokai Watch.
>>
>>385734000
3rd parties only like whoever is easier to port games in.

What are some impressions so far?
>>
Is the going inside the scrolls thing just from the 3ds or something?
>>
I think we're going to see a major shift in public attitudes concerning consoles in the next couple years.

For the past two decades, third parties were able to skate by on Playstation consoles by putting all of their best talent on those games while feeding Nintendo fans scraps. Back then, if you wanted the 'real thing' you had to buy a Playstation.

However, things are changing. We're starting to see Nintendo IPs like Splatoon outperform juggernauts like Dragon Quest. Titles like Monster Hunter World moving to Playstation is drawing outrage from the community. Titles like Street Fighter V and The Last Guardian pale in comparison to Nintendo's offerings. All three of the major GOTY contenders this year are Nintendo Switch exclusives.
>>
>>385735596
They don't care. As long as Sony keep giving them money, they don't need big sales to stay afloat. They can rely on Sony to prevent them from going bankrupt.
>>
>>385735169
He's not wrong.
>>
>>385735919
Sony isn't doing too hot themselves. Just look at that Emoji movie or their TV division. Even their gaming division isn't doing too hot... PSVR is a disaster.

I think third parties will start demanding more and more payouts to deal with rising costs in development. I strongly doubt Monster Hunter World will be profitable if it ONLY sells Monster Hunter Tri numbers, for example.

I think the current trends are showing that only the biggest AAA games cam thrive on Playstation platforms.
>>
>>385735596
>All three of the major GOTY contenders this year are Nintendo Switch exclusives.
I really hope you're not including Splatoon 2 in this
>>
Dragon Quest threads are merely a pretext for people to talk about video game companies right? Nobody actually wants to talk about DQ right?
>>
>>385736197
Splatoon 2 is GOTG worthy.
>>
>>385736179
Sony has a stronghold when it comes to Japnese 3rd parties. Especially if it's anything anime related becuase Sony owns anime in Japan. I remember Nintendo systems were the place to go for stuff like DBZ, One Piece, or Naruto games. Now it's Sony. Only chance Nintendo has at getting genuine 3rd party support like SNES days is if Sony dies.
>>
>>385736197
>I haven't played Splatoon 2

Lol. It is absolutely one of the best games this year. It's still fresh, dog.
>>
>>385736376
Only because Aniplex, but even then they can't really just force.

Also PSP line is dead and buried at this point and mobile versions always sell better than console ones on japan, if anything Switch will fill that void pretty well.
>>
>>385735919
multiplats are a thing anon, most of those anime games are on something else

>>385713379
It doesn't, because most western people can only stand playing JRPGs if they're either easy or have a """deep story"""

On the flip side, Japan liked Kemono Friends, so both countries have shit taste.

not likely if they want people to care, the second they say its not a Dragon Ball game or an ARPG people will drop it.
>>
Didn't the 3DS remakes sell really poorly in the west?
If SE wants to rejuvenate interest in the series, I can see them going PS4-only. The game looks amazing. At the very least, it will be hard to promote 2 versions of the game that look so different, because they won't want people thinking the PS4 version looks like the 3DS version. So from a marketing perspective, it makes sense
>>
>>385737365
all of them sold poorly because lack of marketting and copies
SE only shipped 150k of DQ5 DS and bitched it didn't sell 500k
That said I doubt something like DQ would sell well on PS4 due to it being niche and not called FF.

Nah this is not true. The real truth is that companies are to lazy to advertise their own games. Why do you think Sony and Microsoft invest so much money into getting advertising rights. It's literally a never ending battle once one third party hears your paying for shit they all want it.

It's fine if the game is exclusive to the system and you take care of publishing and advertising rights. But it isn't the case anymore their not even paying for anything except the right to trick normal fags to think the game is exclusive to the system when it's not.

let's be honest, there's a large possibility that dq11 isn't getting localized on 3ds due to it being late in it's life.
3ds feels dead even though metroid and a new pokemon version are coming.

vgchartz says 1.05M globally for VIII, and 1.5 for VII? Sounds accurate, sadly. I've been wanting to get into DQ, but even as a fan of grinding, slow RPGs the early games are even too slow for me. Would it be blasphemy to jump in with VIII on the 3DS?

Builders was published by SquEnix and sold more than DQVIII on 3DS which was published by Nintendo.

>>385745524
According to Dengeki(Japanese tracker in Japan) DQ7R sold 1.25 million as of March 2016 and DQ8R sold 885K as of March 2016. If vgchartz numbers were right(they never are vgchartz makes numbers up) that would mean DQ7 and 8 only sold 165K and 250K respectively in the rest of the world

The PS4 version has a lot of extra NPCs where they just have one line of text above their heads if you get close.
Probably just to make that version seem more populated without screwing 3DS players out of conversations.
>>
>>385748239
I feel like that is a very Nintendo approach since they do that with their rpgs a lot.
mainly Xenoblade.
>>
>>385748239
Well as long as they still have text, it's okay.
A lot of the time NPCs would just say one sentence anyway, so it's no different really.
>>
>>385748323
>>385748239
Sounds like the Witcher.
>>
>>385748323
It's not in the 3ds version though. The towns in both versions have the same NPCs you can talk to like normal but the PS4 version has these extra ones with the single short comments.
>>
>>385748556
I know, I'm saying that its something you'd more expect from Nintendo rather than Enix.
