It's just so...dull

>play literally anything else

Most JRPGs easily have worse battle systems than DQXI specifically, which is the most refined in the series, so what you are saying is bullshit. Most jarpig fans do seem to think that superficial complexity = depth though, so that you're trying to claim this doesn't surprise me.

I beat the entire story. It had a few good characters, and a few good moments, but they weren't nearly enough to fill up that ridiculously long playtime. So, I know what you mean. It's almost as if they took the basic formula and stock characters for a JRPG and threw them together and then did nothing else and released it.

gave up when I got to the end but it was fun while it lasted. the enemies were great. You just have to turn on "enemies do more damage" or you will fall asleep.

That's ever Dragon Quest after 2 from what I've seen and played. People only cream themselves for that series because of Toriyama art.

The easiest way to trigger people is to speak truth, because they know it.

whats up with the soundtrack? its fucking terrible

Sounds fine to me.

I'm deaf btw

Then how would you know what it sounds like?

It's that bad

What's more criminally overrated? Dragon Quest or Tales of cliche Anime?

I'm sorry you have shit taste.

fine on my system (switch)

I thought it had charm, but it suffered the Achilles heel of traditional JRPGS of just being mindbogglingly long with too much filler.

I think I dropped it around the time you fight the kraken after the mermaid or whatever

Ironically the series worked best with the DS/3ds clamshell suspend modes

Its really dated as a main TV game

If you have lost the ability to appreciate then I imagine it would seem that way

It's a game I feel I've played 10 times before. The shit soundtrack doesn't save it either. A jrpg with a bad soundtrack just can't be good, period. It's a shame, the rest is kinda polished if you can pass over the Toriyashit sameface, but it's just ruined by the bad music and dull everything else.

I thought it was really great up until Act 3 starts. If we pretend that doesn't exist, literally the only problem I have with the game (and I played this on PC, maybe it is better in the Switch version) is the fucking horrible OST. Seriously brings the game down. There is a grand total of like 5 songs the whole fucking 70 something hours. In a big JRPG I expect to have at least a couple of overworld tracks, one for every town, at least a couple of battle themes, a more emotional track for emphasize the big points in the story .... DQ11 plays the same midi shit over and over and over and over and over AND OVER AGAIN and it is really unfortunate.

>combat has not changed since the beginning of the series
Feature, not bug. People in Japan would riot if DQ's combat were changed too drastically.

I'm sick and tired of asexual colorful happy go lucky Japanese fantasy, when is the goblin slayer of JRPGs gonna come and deconstruct the genre?

Dark Souls

...

Too linear, no towns, etc. Its an action game with rpg mechanics not a true rpg

>redditor is a wojakposter
Every time.

I heard it was in midi because the composer wanted to sell the orchestral version separately. Guy is like 90.

dragon quest is only for depressed salary men

I literally start falling asleep in my chair if I play for 30 minutes or so

That's what every commercial about DQ tells me

I think you are wrong. DQXI was amazing and I loved it.

Except Goblin Slayer is more about being a harem manga than it is about Goblin Slaying.

yeah this is why gook fantasy media is trash, they can't contain themselves
for example kono suba HAD to introduce a katana as some superior weapon because japs are not self aware
the small penis syndrome always surfaces, this is why the best fantasy mangas are made by women (dungeon meshi and fullmetal)

I don't watch the anime you mentioned, but don't pretend katanas aren't overhyped weapons in western games/media as well.

it sucks in d&d games

Yeah, it's a DQ game. Dullness is expected.

>Thousands of weebs went on twitter to call for the show to be cancelled after 10 minutes of the first episode
Hmmmmmmmm

There’s a reason this series isn’t popular in the west. It doesn’t have the luxury of being a blueblood series outside of Japan so it gets exposed for what it really is. A cookie cutter RPG

That’s not a deconstruction. That’s just Twitter trannies being Twitter trannies. Also
>Goblin Slayer
>not weeb bait

Your soul?

well its a deconstruction of what weebs expected of a fantasy anime in the age of harmeless generic isekais

I'm noticing all the posts in defense of DQ in this thread are reactionary excuses, insults, and hand waving. Can anyone actually justify DQXI being the game that it is? System mechanics, pep, grinding metal slimes, milquetoast story, all grand reveals/twists/turns deflating the build up, etc. I would just love, for once, to see someone on this board explain why they love DQ the way it is rather than fall back on wishy-washy "it's so comfy and doesn't NEED to change."

It's the 11th mainline game in a generic fantasy JRPG series. Not sure what you were expecting.

It’s a conventional JRPG with “twists” that would have been novel 20 years ago but is predictable now, with the same combat system, the same cliches, and a silent protagonist but glossed up with higher production values

>>combat has not changed since the beginning of the series
Yes it actually has with the psyche up and things like the coup de grace powered up moves and skill trees. Objectively false
>> garbage story OH WOW GUESS WHAT YOURE THE LUMINARY THE WHOLE TIME WOOOOOOOW
The fact that you are the luminary wasn't a plot twist afaik
>>garbage ost
I guess this is a matter of taste because I've always liked dragon Quest osts while many don't Idk why.
>>garbage voice acting
All English voice acting is shit, that applies to like everything

>its a deconstruction of what weebs expected of a fantasy anime in the age of harmeless generic isekais
Bitch, it’s just your typical fantasy shit with a hard edge to it. Same shit as Akame Ga Kill.

I dunno, I thought Erik's VA was aite. He was the best party member IMO, game might have been better if he was the protagonist.

its comfort food

I fail to see the appeal in it too.
I got 10 hours in, what the fuck would change if i played it for a hundred more? What would i unlock? What new systems to play around with would i find?

>All English voice acting is shit, that applies to like everything
This is just wrong.

The characters are great.
The story is good.
The combat is the best of the series.
It's massive and post game is great.

Name 3 (three)

Does this game have the worst true ending ever?

Well, yea, that's what it's known for

This thread really shows the average age of Yas Forums these days.

Yeah. I thought it was fine but nothing really too memorable or special.
