Must be all the snoy fags saying this game is garbage on switch. It's running great for me in hand held and I've been playing all day.
Dqb2 is a solid 8/9-10 and a must own for a switch fan. And it is WAAAAAY better then the first one (by which I never got past the second part too boring.)
There's one part at a mill and you have to fight off 100 mobs with three npcs. Zero latency or fps drops noticable.
Snoy's hate that switch has piracy and they don't. They will claim any switch port runs like shit, even if it has the same framerate or a decent resolution.
I had someone tell my Valkyria Chronicles 4 is terrible on Switch. It's really not, you have to look at side-by-side comparisons to notice any terrain differences. Besides that it's just resolution and polish.
Simplistic games like this are going to be fine on any system let's be honest.
Isaiah Hall
I'm sure your eyes have adapted to the many 15fps experiences only available on Nintendo Switch™.
Christopher Evans
Just got off the boat. Docket performance is shit. Thankfully I planned on playing this in handheld mode with an overclock so all is well
Hudson James
>suddenly 15fps is bad because nintendo is the one doing it oh snoy
Eli Davis
This >Bloodborne runs at sub 20 fps >OMG GREATEST GAEM EVAR >DQB2 runs at sub 30 fps >HAHA FUCK NINTENDO YOU GUYS SUCK
Blake Thompson
How about RDR2 running at around 20fps on base PS4. I still haven't finished that game, I hope they do double-dip like GTAV and release a PC version. I don't want to buy a 2nd PS4 just so I can get the "pro" experience of a decent framerate.
Isaac Hall
Docked and handheld work great As a PC player I am used to 60+ fps.
The 23-30+ I get is perfectly normal for ANY console. But this game is virtually flawless. So far 10+ hours in.
Bunch of snoy bois. Can't believe I listened to you again almost just waited for FE instead.
I don't know, the demo ran pretty decent (aside from the 50 minutes loading screen before it began), which gave me hope. But both here and a few reviews seems to indicate that there's random performance dips and it kinda tanks when there are too many entities on the screen. This is pretty much the whole reason I've been holding back in buying it. I need to know exactly how bad it gets.
Benjamin Murphy
just fucking pirate it you faggot, it's full of DLC anyway
Brayden Martin
That's my point I have heard the same and have noticed nothing.
Like read Nintendo life review. It very minor. If at all I have seen none of this fps dropping and my screens been really busy!
Christian Butler
How did they improve the story mode over 1? I liked 1 and am just curious
>play smash bros online >huge latency and horrendous lag spikes in every match How come there’s no difference yet retards praise smash
Julian Morris
Did they fix the combat in 2? By that I mean do you not get damaged anymore for accidentally walking into a troll's ass?
Caleb Morgan
MUCH more story content. Massive changes
Combat is much better no more dmg from touching enemies.
Alexander Bennett
im at the farm island right now and its painfully hand holdy and way too wordy for shit you could figure out if you were five years old. the moments when you are actually playing the game and not clicking through text is fantastic though, and ive had more fun building in the larger settlement space, while combat feels rewarding now that you can level up and get new weapons from it
Ryan Reed
Does the demo keep progress? I don't want to do all that shit and then have to replay it
Gabriel Brown
yeah you can continue from a demo save
Lincoln Miller
Shiiiiiet I might pick this up then. It nearly drove me crazy in the later chapters because of how much fighting you have to do.
Christian Lopez
Beat first island., this game is fucking fun. Lulu starts making river in empty isle but I want to proceed story since my hummer still sucks
Zachary Watson
Because Smash at its core is a couch multiplayer game and it runs perfectly if you don't use the garbage online.
Julian Barnes
So what's the multiplayer like for this?
Henry Price
So is not-Vegeta your only companion or can you put together a little party?
nobody gives a fuck about playing this on the switch unless they just want to lounge around in their bed like a baby in hand holding mode with shitty fps.
i'ma get this baby on ps4 with my girlfriend and have actual fun through a good online network.
Thomas Green
yes
Tyler Brown
Would like to know this too
Kayden Collins
played it for like 6 hours now, docked and handheld. Overall the performance is good, BUT every now and then the fps tanks for a couple of seconds. I had this happening with tons of stuff on screen and just an empty field. It's very infrequent tho, so it doesn't really take much away from the overall experience.
Eli Thompson
Look man, there is no conspiracy at play here. Japan has had this game longer and can do comparisons. I really wish I could find this Japanese guy's twitter post but he took the same route through the same area on both systems. And what was like a minute's worth of running the Switch user ended up taking 5 seconds longer due to slow down.
Now I own both the PS4 and the Switch and I would've absolutely loved to have gotten this game for the Switch for the portability but when you play the demo and the game's framerate dips on the tutorial ship from just turning the camera, that's a problem. Not to mention the game slowing down when you're just walking on an empty beach too looking at the sea. I guess it's slightly better undocked but I really couldn't take the chance that it wouldn't be. The performance was actually making my eyes hurt.
That said this game is addictive as hell and I really had a hard time putting it down yesterday. I liked DQB1 but this is on a whole nother level.
Asher Reyes
As a person who liked to play games on my Switch I hate that this is what it's become. You cannot just purchase a Switch game and expect it to run decently on your console anymore. Instead you have to wait a week to see whether the game is even playable on your piece of shit system.
What went wrong Switchbros?
Hudson Baker
nintendo puts out shit hardware but tries to make up for it with good software. this has been happenning since the wii, so you are retarded if you didnt expect it
Are you playing from a cartridge or an sd card? I didn't notice any slowdown so far, i'm playing handheld on an sd card.
i'm at the same point, need to explore islands to find a chicken.
Austin Sullivan
>shit framerate >must be other company's fault Yawn, you can tell its eu time
Kayden Myers
I love the game but why does it run like shit?
Cameron Sanchez
Imagine being 30 fucking years old and still being obsessed with console earring. Get psychological help you schizo incel freak
Kevin Gonzalez
Because the switch is a piece of shit?
Owen Kelly
>Snoy's hate that switch has piracy and they don't. This. The PS4 "scene" is fucking dead.
Isaac Morales
1 ran fine, blame tecmo koei.
Liam Jones
Nah senpai I played the demo yesterday and it was running really bad on the Dock, at least up until I left the boat, was running decently on the island, haven't tried portable
Logan Wood
>minecraft dragonballs I think I'll pass.
Levi Long
is this game worth of a buy on the switch or can i just pirate it? i was going to spend my shekels on MUA3 as my monthly switch game but im still thinking about mario maker2/ FE or this.
Dominic Perry
>haha, they look like Dragonball characters Funny AND original
Ryder Cruz
>tfw there will never be comfy DQ Builders 2 threads due to console war shitposting
Fuck you all
Joshua Harris
This. As well as block building games having this stigma ever since Minecraft got really popular. Doesn't even matter that Builders 1&2 have way more going on and are actually feature finished.
Elijah Phillips
Anyone know if you can change your follower out?
Cameron Bennett
No, you're stuck with that bastard.
Ryder Fisher
The Switch performance issues aren't a meme. As you progress further in the game and the town you're building has more and more custom items/blocks in it-- performance degrades.
You don't believe it, that's fine. All FPS issues were reported to be later game and mostly in docked mode because of the resolution bump. The game just isn't well suited for Switch.
Ethan Walker
yeah i just saw some videos and theres no way im buying this at full price for a game that encourages you to build a big city. guess i will have to dust off my ps4.
Asher Carter
Damn I was hoping I could switch him out with the knight girl that I just found
Camden Baker
Is everyone actually homebrewing the switch now? I've been looking at getting one and it seems like it's becoming as accessible as the 3ds was. Thoughts?
Nathan Bennett
Is it really impossible to get the pre-order content from here on? You can't like, pay for it as DLC or something? Is it truly forever impossible to get now?
Brandon Diaz
Yes.
Logan Smith
>softlocked myself out of finishing the first island because I somehow broke the altar in the church and didn't pick it up and it vanished forever
WOW I CAN'T WAIT TO RESTART
Jason Ross
FUCKING WHY!?! I was going to buy this game, but now I'll never fucking ever get the full game? Fucking great! Thanks Square Enix! Now I really feel motivated to buy your game!

Brayden Mitchell
>le snoys are pushing me to buy one switch game instead of another you guys must be trolling
Benjamin Gray
it’s not the fact that it runs at 30 fps its that it goes under that frequently
Hunter Wood
>Builders 1 managed a steady 60 frequently with some occasional drops >Builders 2 can't even hold 30 These games aren't even a generation apart what the fuck.
Ryder Diaz
Monster Hunter has been in the same boat for over a year now. You eventually just die inside and learn to live with it. Mods are never going to effectively get rid of console war faggotry and anons will never stop autisticly fighting over dumb shit. What can you do?
Noah Gutierrez
I love this game so much
Bump
Jonathan Jones
PSA Make sure you have plenty of free space during the church altar ghost quest on the first island, because if you happen to lose one of the items you cannot progress and will be softlocked Had to fucking restart
Gavin King
Have you even checked in your bottomless bag?
Henry Brooks
oh no not 5 seconds!
Jaxson Wilson
Yes, it wasn't in the bag.
Logan Jenkins
You know switch has a demo dqb2? why don't you try it and see how it runs?
for me it runs pretty good
John Nelson
And even with piracy, the Switch version will outsell the PS4 one.
Zachary White
>You don't have a mucky magazine sandwiched between the pages, do you?! >Muckiness doesn't matter to me! A quick wipe down with a damp cloth and it'll be good as new.
>The only thing offensive here is that dead dog on his chin.
>That's great Builder! By the way, what did you use to make that wormfood? This fucking writing.
world isnt shit because it wasnt on nintendo, world is shit because it babies you to the extreme while also not being as good as any of the titles in the last decade
Ian Fisher
Does the PS4 version run at 60 fps?
Lincoln Morgan
yeah and then you have horrible localization of that female soldier. you all know who i mean
Bentley Flores
Yes! Fucking 5+ second lack for every 1 minute of gameplay. It adds up. Do you realize you'll have wasted hours of gametime by the end of it just walking through sludge because the Switch can't run this game without slowdowns.
Bentley King
>Dqb2 is a solid 8/9-10 and a must own for a switch fan What does one thing have to do with the other? I'm a Switch fan, not a Dragon Quest fan. Think before you speak

Oliver Barnes
That actually seems plausible if a bit petty.
Cooper Lewis
If I buy this game now, that is to say without having preordered it. How much am I missing out on and is it really impossible to unlock any other way? It will probably decide whether or not I purchase the game at all.
Landon Young
Cosmetics, I think some will be available later as paid DLC judging from the Japanese ps store page.
Mason Bell
What the fuck is up with Nintendo fags and defending lackluster products they get, while playing victim at the hands of a company that has nothing to do with it.
I want it but I missed the preorder window by like 6 minutes so I refuse to buy it out of lacking those preorder bonuses.
Xavier Reed
>Town becomes a world superpower by 2020
Oliver Collins
unfortunately the worldbabs will never realize or accept this since they're all newcomers to the series that only played it because it came out on the no games niggerstation.
The pink exploding things drop seeds when you block them in, there are lots of them toward the dock Also some enemies drop seeds Find the secret basement in the church, there are a fuckload of pumpkin seeds in one of the chests
Justin Butler
i know that you're being ironic, but, its on pc and ive played it
it sucks
in fact i didn't even get a switch until after i had played it.
Christopher Reed
Dock and church, thanks I've scoured the entire map and am like 40 seeds off
So eventually I'll be able to get everything anyway? Then I might actually buy it.
Caleb Bennett
You're talking about a localisation staff, the only people more petty than them is us.
Ryder Cooper
Builders 1 was designed a generation behind the times so it could maintain 30FPS on the Vita. Builders 2 isn't being designed for the Vita.
Zachary Adams
Man, water tiles behave really illogical sometimes.
Ryan Allen
I sincerely hope there isn't a söynigger behind that comment
James Jones
Legitimately if you felt the demo ran fine, then it should be fine for you. The demo was bad enough for me personally to get it on my PS4 instead, so if that's not the line for you, you'll do just fine.
Justin White
why would docked run worse that makes no sense
Adrian Ward
Consolefags are so pathetic dick measuring for corporations like owning a certain console is a life achievement
Dylan Hughes
>If you pick up an item that exists in your bag, it automatically goes to your bag instead of infesting your toolbar Games this sexy need to be bought twice.
I might actually double dip for this if it ever comes out on the PC.
Nathan Hughes
>recently become fan of Dragon Quest because of Builders 1 >Builders 2 comes out, 11 comes out on Switch, and Hero gets in Smash It's pretty good, DQbros
>As well as block building games having this stigma ever since Minecraft got really popular. You do realize that the reason why Builders 1 got made was because Yuji Horii is a huge westaboo and wanted to introduce his new favorite game Minecraft to the Japanese, right?
Brandon Ward
The Switch runs shit at a lower resolution in handheld mode so it tends to be more stable. If I got through XBC2 in handheld mode I think I can handle this just fine.
Kayden King
Make stealth treads Only use stuff from the game and outsider would have no idea about >MH Use a LBG icon >Builders Just use a slime and have it say “Blocks your path”
Adam Bennett
Yeah I do get that. My context was more that it could be difficult to have more comfy topic threads about this game on Yea Forums due to console wars and anons entering the threads just to complain about it being a "shitty minecraft ripoff" because the genre is somehow inherently bad.
Robert Ward
Brittany is great and a typical Gal experience. If you think for a second her Japanese text isn't full of Japanese millennial memes, you're retarded.
Jordan Fisher
This If anything I’m gonna go buy it now and I’m not playing. See ya in about 25 minutes
Adam Evans
Devs are weird Like BOTW ran in handheld better than docked
Wait till you make a town, you can't go all out and make it look noce without the fps dropping.
Nathan Turner
>Taking a picture of yourself buying a game making a meme face for all of your secret club friends I'm not even going to insult you, I just think you should really reorganize your life priorities.
I would throw in brushing yo teef/tongue too mang.
Jackson Morales
Is there any reason to play builders 1 before 2?
Jace Sanchez
I might pirate it on the switch to see just how bad it is but at this point Im just waiting for a PC port.
Logan Wright
Nigger I played the switch demo and I'm playing the ps4 version right now. You are deluded. Performance is terrible on switch.
Jayden Wood
Literally the only reason is because Builders 2 just plain improves on Builders 1 in every way, so there might be some retro-shock if you decide to go back to it.
That's it.
Wyatt Price

Asher Thomas
It's funny how much both the build games dab on minecraft.
Jonathan Perez
What did it for you? For me it's the NPCs walking around, using your buildings, helping you defend, etc. Meanwhile the villagers in minecraft, as much as I try to save them and build them a nice place, fall into random ravines and die or just outright disappear.
Carter Lewis
literally all the block building games shit on minecraft. its pathetic when you look at the stuff you can do in terraria and then look at how little minecraft changed since prealpha.
Luis Lopez
sorry about your autism bro
William Wilson
Does anyone know if you can rename the animals you befriend?
Will definitely pick this up on the switch. I might just sell my PS4 honestly and wait to play Death Stranding on the PS5 or PC.
Jaxon Thomas
I felt the fps was low, but it didn't bother me that much.
Then I decided to check the noticeboard and visit some user generated castle. I promise it was 5 fps, or less. What the fuck?
Tyler Cox
Too much shit and effects on screen and over a shitty online network.
Charles Jenkins
Can I let Malroth kill Lulu?
David Flores
>It's running great for me in hand held Why do Switch fags always lie? The game looks and runs like shit. Just because you are used to playing shit at 20FPS, doesnt mean it isnt an issue.
Blake James
>They will claim any switch port runs like shit, even if it has the same framerate or a decent resolution. Most games on the Switch do run and look like shit. What the fuck are you talking about? Even PS2 ports have issues.
David Thompson
>Oh okay I'll take this retards word for it and check >Video has tons of frame drops, even from moving too fast in some areas, some constantly 20FPS >Turns out it does run like shit even with all the downgrades
Who would have guessed Switch fanboys are lying faggots that take every opportunity to make the shit console look good? Everyone should know by now the Switch has downgrades on top of performance issues for most of its library.
This, legit this. It's all like a clown show of Switchlets that want SOMETHING to praise about the shit console and fishing for anything. It's all a circle jerk of fanboys that don't even play games outside of shit that lands on Nintendo.
This is quite literally a rule breaking thread, and still perpetuates Switch fanboys as the worst fanbase on this board.
Colton Gutierrez
COPE Switch runs at 60 FPS all the time. Even next gen games like DOOM run great! Gyro controls!
And the worst thing is that you can still be deceived by all the braindead faggots like OP with no fucking standards whatsoever being "happy" about shitty sub 30 fps/sub hd games and screaming everywhere that the Switch version is "great" or some dumb shit like that.

Ethan Russell
I've been playing it on switch the last couple of days. it often struggles to keep stable frame rate it dips rather frequently. It's certainly playable but people aren't lying you're just a idiot for not noticing.
Eli Morgan
Why would you come to Yea Forums and not expect shitposting What the fuck dude?
Are you clinically retarded?
Jackson Howard
Believe it or not, there are threads here with quality video game discussion. Just not DQ Builders 2 though.

How the fuck is it taking longer to load on a cart than on a ps4 harddrive. What a terrible port.
Zachary Miller
It isn't just bound to the type of storage you have, also need a CPU strong enough that can decompress and transfer all the data, polygons and textures from the storage to the video memory of the console at the fastest time possible. guess what the switch lacks
Cameron Watson

Here's hoping that DQ getting in smash makes people curious enough to check DQXI and make the nips realize it can be profitable to market the franchise in the west.

I made it through this whole area playing docked on Switch without any noticeable drops, idk. Maybe I am blind though.
Acorns are always on the giant bark trees. Just look up
William Taylor
Is there any chance of docked mode getting patched?
Hudson Foster
I've seen some slowdown happening from time to time, but for the most part it runs perfectly fine, even during the big battles with a million enemies and allies duking it out. Anyway, why is the game so fun? I wish it was a bit less handholdy, but I can't stop playing anyway.
Nicholas Foster
Just make a 4 blocks tall building, then put a ladder on the outside to climb up easily so you can put the roof tiles. The flat ones are pretty finicky, you may want to put a normal block first, then put the flat tile over it as a guide, after that you can just put the rest easily.
the first game ran perfectly fine without a single fps issue. there is no reason why a sequel using the same quality assets and engine should suddenly run significantly worse. its not the hardware, there was a development decision to allow the game to be made like this.
Jonathan Fisher
>GameXplain Isn't that the autistic retard who went full reeee about Mario Maker 2?

Don't have the game yet, so I can't tell you where, but there's a flute that will locate items later on so you can complete your lists.
