IX's was too lacking in personality for me. Your party aren't real characters, they're just there to fight. The main character is mute, it's the supporting cast who has to do everything.
Compare that to VIII, the hero was mute too, but just looking at him already gave you an idea. It also had entretaining party members.

Etrian Odyssey and 7th Dragon

>>386283439
I agree that 9 wasn't the best DQ game, but I really like the ability to make your own party. It's fresh to roleplay a bit more in a role playing game.

I'm guessing that 11 is more like 8 from what I've seen, can anyone confirm this?

>>386282905
The SaGa 2 remake for DS is like that, visual customization is not as in depth as DQIX but the actual gameplay is leagues above it if you really like customization and micromanaging, especially with four races that play differently from each other.

>>386283414
>cat has female eyelashes
uh worry

>Tfw try and play IV DS
>Garbage overlocalization where even the original NES translation was more accurate
How do you deal with it anons?

>>386283414
That setting in the first trailer looks fucking sick.
you're consistently in these threads, I'm impressed

I loved IX, too. It's probably my favorite DQ title.

>>386284572
Man that game was what got me into Dragon Quest. Do accents really upset you that much that it makes a game unplayable?

>>386283439
I literally couldn't give two shits. The characters and plot were never the strong point of the series, and the hero is generic in near all of them

III and IX are my favorites though, so we probably just have different taste. I couldn't get into VIII at all, the pacing kills it for me. Though IX's start is a pain in the but as well to be fair

>>386283414

Is there really just no way to play this? Heck I'd put up with moon just to give it a shot

Check out Etrian Odyssey, though it's fairly niche. The gameplay may not be to your liking, but with several classes and sub-classes to choose from, party customization is really fun.

>>386285000
Pretty sure you can play on the JP servers.

>>386285071
I thought you had to connect from a japanese IP and pay with a japanese credit card, or something

>>386284781
>The characters and plot were never the strong point of the series
The characters and plot are literally the only reasons to play any specific game in the series over any of the other ones.

>>386284681
It bugs me quite a bit, yeah. Do you know if 5 and 6 DS have the same style of dialog?

>>386285159
Shows how weak the series is then.

>>386285359

On the contrary, it shows how strong the core is. Every game is enjoyable if you like the series, and the only reason to prefer one over the other is minor fluff stuff

>>386285314
Yeah, it started with 4.

>>386283414
I missed you DQX chen poster

>>386285314
5 and 6 tone it down a lot. It's nowhere near as bad as 4.

>>386283414
What's the gameplay like, anyway?

>>386285130
They got rid of the IP block I think, but you do need a japanese credit card yeah.

Oof. The gameplay looks good though, and was that guy a monster? Is there a monster class or is that just a AI party member?

Alright, since it's a DQIX thread, where the fuck can I find a silver platter? Internet didn't help much since the easiest way to obtain one isn't possible because I'm playing on an emulator.

>>386285508
Alright thanks, I'll play those on DS

What's the best way to DQ3?

>>386286975
I want to say SNES with translation patch?

>>386286975

snes

>>386286975

People will probably recommend the SNES version, but I have a huge soft spot for the GBC release. Everything is just faster and snappier and the IMO I think the GBC's soundchip does a better job with the soundtrack. Plus it has a new bonus dungeon not in any other version

But really the SNES version is great too and'll look a lot better. Just avoid the iOS/Android port. It's just a butchered snes version

>>386286975
snes translated my good sir

>>386286393
There's one in the Bad Cave and one in the Plumbed Depths.

>>386287275
>>386287291
>>386287397
>>386287436
Alright I'll go with patched SNES version.

Just out of curiosity, are there any good DQ romhacks/mods?

I was playing DQ3 with SNES patch but it bugged on a city and everything anyone said on that city was gibberish.

Anyone else with the same problem?

Armamentalist was really great in 9. The element buffs were effective against the legacy bosses.

>>386285949

Kill me, I need this.

>>386289195
I've always like Palladins in DQ from gameplay to looks to the abilities. The Armamentalists are awesome designwise and flavourwise. And Martial Artists are super cool too.

stop being so racist. just because he's a 10 foot tall alligator man with small wings, can breathe fire, and wields a massive axe does not make him a monster.

>>386283414
Daily reminder that Yoshi-P blocks this game from coming out in English because he doesn't want to be proven wrong about western MMO gamer sensibilities.

There's a few jobs that can tame monsters and have a monster buddy.

>>386290448
That's pretty fucking rad. Do you have some sort of image/video showing what the different races look like and what their stats are?

What the hell is pafu pafu? I've never played a Japanese DQ before

>>386290753
Puff Puff, basically motorboating tits.

>>386290857
I'm really surprised this is allowed in what's essentially a kid's game

It's only implied, and the one time they show it the girl isn't really using their boobs, but using two slimes instead

Most CRPGs let you create your whole party but are even more of an acquired taste than jrpgs. They also usually have more generic art styles and world's
They can be fun, but again it's acquired taste
Give Pillars of Eternity or Divinity a shot

They kind of did in 8.

I thought I had that busty barmaid webm..

>>386289195
Wish they were able to use some offensive magic though, for such a cool look, they're often just support characters.

Just got Angelo in VIII and I'm kinda liking the voices. Only character Ive used skill points on is Jessica but I'm starting to think I should just go crazy instead of going for some optimal build for each character.

V was so fucking good but I'm liking VIII a lot more and I'm thinking about buying VII at some later point.

>>386290982
Japan treats these things a little differently from the west. Like the first volume of Dragon Ball has Goku's dick completely on show.

>>386286393

You get to see Bulma's nips as well.

I hate DQ7 but monster classes are cool
Even if you have to grind for fucking days on dumbass slimes

>>386291774
Eh I can see that different cultures react to simple nudity differently, but this just seems very sexual. And it's odd how party members don't respond to it. Like the hero gets invited to go upstairs for puff-puff and everyone's like "enjoy". You'd think there would be odd looks or a highly awkward situation but I guess DQ just obviously isn't reality

>>386283414
I'll always be glad that X will always be NEVER EVER.

>>386292180
It's important Legendary Hero business. Everyone has heard the tale of the hero powering up and sealing the demon lord after after motorboating some slutty bunny tits.

why is the dq3 hero always portrayed as a shota in doujins
not complaining just wondering

>>386293287
Japanese men had major crushes on the girls when they played the game as little boys. DQ3 hero is easily to self-insert as, so they self-insert as a little boy being coddled and molested by sexy older women.

convince me to find the very last mini medal im missing in dragon quest 8 by going through every single location in order until i find the one im missing
i don't want to do this for the love of god, why could they just not have some fucking checklist god DAMN IT

I definitely like having yangus or torneko in the party but I had a blast with my OC characters. I named each of them after plantlife like Sycamore or Holly and set them to the colour of the plant. I just made them into power Rangers essentially and they felt like characters that could have been in a dragon quest game.

>>386283717
I took a look at 7th Dragon, which one is seen as the best? It looks fun.

I hope we get a game that lets you customize your party again, that's always fun.

thanks doc

Why's DQ IX so boring tho

It's a MMO in a DS cartridge

>>386302831
I already did and seems like the IP block is still there

>>386285906
I think it disappeared at one point by accident but it's back now

As someone who wasted 10 years of their life in a MMO, I really recommend against them. You should consider yourself lucky it's not coming out here

>>386304104
If you grind it gets way too easy.
If you don't grind very much it has an awesome difficulty curve and then spikes at the grottos.
Characters have more character until they get every skill from every class and all wear the best gear.
If you force your characters to be different it's fun all the way to the end.

Also it's fun to do Grotto Superbosses with friends if you have any.

Is the DQX offline mode worth the trouble?
