nintendo won again
https://www.forbes.com/sites/olliebarder/2017/08/02/dragon-quest-xi-has-sold-over-2-million-copies-in-2-days-with-the-3ds-version-outselling-ps4/#79d326f320bf

Square Enix won. Good for them.
>>
>>386088914

How many 3DS owners and how many PS4 owners in Japan? Also, >Switch MIA

By the way, no Switch game and no DQ game will outsell the Uncharted 4 anyway, so why brag about fifth or sixth place?

Yep

Not surprising, since the PS4 version has a casualized and watered down system, while the 3DS version has real DQ combat.

True Dragon Quest fans will avoid PS4 and buy the game on 3DS.

But the PS4 version was designed by Yuji Horii, thus making it real DQ combat.
>>
>>386092757

Too much graphics, makes it hard to see enemies on screen when there's so much detail. I'd rather play the low poly version which is much clearer. Plus, DQ games don't feel right in other platforms. It's pretty much a Nintendo exclusive franchise at this point.
>>
>>386092951
so the only different thing about the battle system is that it looks different?
>>
right now i'm really only keeping my eye on either the ps4 or switch version. 3DS just looks a bit too dated for me. ps4 looks nice and smooth. if the switch version has the ability to play like the ps4 or sprite based 3ds version that would be amazing, especially for on-the-go as switching (heh) to the sprite version for handheld mode would save tons of battery life
>>
>>386092237
arent they exactly the same battle system?
>>
>>386093076
It's the same shit, that guy just keeps posting the same bait every DQ thread. Just ignire from now on.

And yet square cant afford io interactive

>>386092757
>>386093236
In the 3DS version you choose the actions of all your party at the beginning of the turn, like in every other DQ game.
In the PS4 version instead, you command each character when it's his turn to act. So you no longer have to worry to know the speed of your characters and the monsters, or try to predict if you'll need an emergency heal or worry to waste attacks if the enemy defends or buffs himself.
It's a change that removes a layer of strategy that the series always had to make it easier for ultra casuals.
>>386092951
What a sad post.
>>386093271
Ignoring the truth won't make it go away.
>>
>>386088914
If you take into account the amount of 3DS owners vs PS4 owners, the PS4 version came out on top
>>
23.5 Million 3DS family in Japan vs 4.5 million PS4 family

1,130,000 DQXI 3DS vs 950,000 DQXI PS4

Physical only
>>
>>386093414
>no longer have to worry to know the speed of your characters and the monsters
but your speed still does matter, because it still defines when everyone takes their turn. it's not like you get a list of "who's next" on the side of your screen, right?
i can see what you mean though. the PS4 version requires a more reactive gameplay, whereas the 3DS version is more about prediction.

>3DS --. 1.1 Million

>Nintendo Wins
There's hardly a gap between both versions and that's telling considering the PS4 has a vastly lower install base compared to the 3DS. The PS4 is currently surging in Japan, its here to stay.

Also I'd be damn if this game never makes it onto the Nintendo Switch, its perfect for that device, they could combine both the 3DS/PS4 version together.
>>
Arguing about sale numbers and X company VS Y company sound like such a petty thing to do with your time. What a shit thread too.
>>
>>386088914
The PS4 isn't a mobile system tho. The fact that PS4 even sold 600+ on Dragon Quest is pretty impressive.

Do NOT sexualize DQ gals. Toriyama girls are all pure except for Bulma which was a slut.
