>brings up Sugiyama out of nowhere
The Dragon Quest XI team within the Second Development Division has begun work a new project...
Dragon Quest has always had spin-offs that change things up though. Unless this is specifically meant to be DQXII, what does it matter?
Why is DQ so unpopular in the West?
I just want a new DQM Joker with DQXI graphics
It is weird. Most shit with Toriyama's art style sells like hotcakes no matter where.
The don't ever advertise it. I work with 3 people who constantly talk about how they miss old school, 100 hour RPGS and when I tell them about DQXI they've never heard of it or even the franchise.
>new appeal
Well, it was fuck for 40 years I guess. Fuck you yuji horii for allowing this.
They tend to not come out in the US and when they do its either not marketed, understocked, or recently, sold on platforms where there isn't an audience.
>never heard of it or even the franchise
They're not classic JRPGs fans then.
Admittedly the original western releases didn't use his art.
