>Square-Enix has announced that they'll be releasing a demo for Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age – Definitive Edition, and the demo's save data will grant users a “Skill Seed” in the full game. The demo's save data will also unlock the premium hero card “The One Descended from Erdrick [S]” in the Switch version of Dragon Quest Rivals. No release date has been given for the demo at this time.
>Continuing on with the Dragon Quest XI S info, Square-Enix also revealed that the world of Dragon Quest X will appear in Dragon Quest XI S as one of the past Dragon Quest worlds players can travel to. Furthermore, Erik will be able to wear his “North Leather Style” outfit from the one-shot manga starring Erik by Hiro Mashima that will debut in the August 21st issue of V-Jump magazine.
>Finally, an enhanced “Draconian Quest” will appear in Dragon Quest XI S. With “Super Shypox” enabled, all members of the party are inflicted with the “Shypox” spell.
I'm so glad there are monster mounts in the game. I didn't like that I had to ride around on a regular horse after being able to ride around on the great sabrecat in VIII. The flying wolf one looks cool.
i dont see much difference at all. so yes to finish off your sentence
>wow DQXI Definitive Edition for the Nintendo Switch is a good exclusive
Blake Smith
no release date?
Elijah Moore
>He thinks DQ fans give a shit about graphics
Jackson Lee
no release date for the demo yet. probably within the next week or so, maybe announced in a nintendo direct?
Charles Gray
release date
Logan Flores
this like fuck dude the DS versions are usually the most beloved ones
John Mitchell
Seethe harder, snoy.
Xavier Taylor
I mean it's pretty obvious Square-Enix is using the power of Smash Marketing to push DQ into the west.
and it's working on me I'm probably gonna buy this day 1 even though I've only ever played DQ8
Kayden Jones
>not pictured: the ear-destroying midi music that ps4 console babies had to put up with for 80 hours >also not pictured: the nice orchestral track that only pc and switch users will experience >further not pictured: marrying jade
Mason Campbell
Can't wait to try the shit version on my Nintendo Shitch!
Asher Myers
I'll be playing it in 16-bit visuals.
Joseph Richardson
Heads up there is a way to transfer data from the 3DS or PS4 version but only in Japan. No option for PC since it wasnt made to be updated. The only thing is that it will not send you directly where you were last, it sends you to the last major story section.
Eli Nelson
>Shit version >Has the most content of all versions of the game by far. Try harder
Wyatt Ortiz
>also not pictured: the fact that you can't even see your party members in the PS4 version while they always follow you in the Switch
Aaron Phillips
Hey Eric, how's it going dude
David Gutierrez
>tfw hate jrpgs >tfw love jade and wanna marry her
>pc: graphics + orchestral music >switch: 8 bit mode + new story areas + other additional content + orchestral music >ps4: ??? sounds like the ps4 is the shit version to me
Sebastian Ward
>Content >Patch tier shit with DLC tier content addons that add next to nothing to the overall game >Resolution scaling below 720p, cant even hold 30 FPS most of the time >Looks like absolute shit
I'll pass, even if I can get it free on my Shitch.
Who?
Yeah, PC seems the only reasonable version. The Shitch version is by far the most useless.
Camden Reyes
>"DLC tier content" >acting like anyone that plays old school JRPGs gives a shit about if its 720p >leaving out the fact that the PS4 version also struggled to keep it at 30fps >Shitch >"Who?"
whatever you say, Eric
Owen Hughes
Nigger I’m excited about the 16 but mode You’re point is moot
Hunter White
JUST DON'T FUCKING RESPOND. WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH ALL OF YOU? DO YOU WANT EVERY DRAGON QUEST THREAD TO BE LIKE THIS? JUST DON'T FUCKING RESPOND
It being portable is a big plus. Probably never would have finished DQ1-4 if I couldn’t play them on my phone.
I do want to get DQXI on PC, but I can’t see myself playing these games just sitting there doing nothing else.
Matthew Robinson
>Next to no content actually added that is substantial >Pretending a patch tier update is huge >Acting like visual appeal is the biggest thing when the gameplay is mediocre >PS4 version is way more stable than anything Shitch
Okay paranoid Shitch owner.
Brandon Perez
different time of day. look at the shadows
Andrew Barnes
I feel like the past few years with DQ has just made me content. >11 is cool happy were getting a portable version with the combined content and more >heroes was an okay idea but I wanted them to go farther with it and basically make DQ3/9 as an action game >builders is always so close to greatness but stumbles is still alright, shocked both PS4 and Switch have no caps to prevent the framerate from diving >DQ9 remake for Switch implied by horii which makes me super happy but worried they might fuck it up in some way >still no western monsters release >talk of 10 being repurposed as an offline game for a WW release, No idea how that will go
Close the post form. I know you're looking at the shitpost and itching to call him out. You're not going to accomplish anything and only going to make the thread worse. Just close it.
Michael Gomez
Cope Eric, the Switch is a hit, this version of DQXI is going sell the best by far, and nothing you can say will change this.
What are the odds of them porting enhanced versions of the DS games to Switch's E-Shop if DQXI S sells well? I know there's been talk of the Bravely Default team wanting to do the same for Default/Second.
Lucas Martinez
This. We recommend the mobile versions to people, man. Graphics are the least of our concerns.
Michael Gray
Should I emulate 8 on PS2 or 3DS?
Gavin Hall
>Erik gets his own manga and is the protagonist of the next Monsters spin-off.
Why does Japan love Erik so much?
Asher Brooks
If you are emulating it, go for the DS version with the Orchestra fan patch.
Leo Adams
Low, The DS games would take a lot of work to get into a decent shape for a new release outside of mobile, the only ports that are really likely are 1-3 but the new bad versions on PS4 and 3DS, and 7 and 8.
I’ve played a bunch of DQ games DQM Joker was my 1st DQ game and I was always weirded out why can’t I recruit monsters like Joker? That’s when I found out Joker was the exception not the standard
Jaxson Martinez
here's every dq11 version ranked pc > ps4 pro > ps4 > 3ds > switch
its worth mentioning the 3ds version is like a demake and runs both 3d/2d versions at the same time. its very cool because using the joystick lets you run in 360' on the top screen but if you use the dpad it locks you to tiles on the bottom screen. switch version has the 2d version as a bonus but it doesn't match up with the 3d because the environments are ps4 version. 3ds environments were downscaled to fit the the 2d scale.
pc version lets you use real 4k (unlike ps4 pro) and set the framerate to 60. there's also an orchestrated music mod. switch version is a ps4 port but runs worse in every way possible, but does have extras to try to make up for it
You mean the Shitch*, and I don't know who your boogieman is but it makes me laugh.
>You're not going to accomplish anything and only going to make the thread worse. I'm only pointing out the worst version on the worst platform. Nothing more, nothing less. I have a Shitch too.
Luis Brown
You have no idea what you are talking about, the 2D mode is only top and bottom for the opening of the game then it requires you to pick one or the other, after that point changing between them requires you to go to a save point, pick 2D/3D and it reloads you from the last major plot point.
Austin Bennett
and let me guess you have literally every single game on it because you are a master hacker and yet you refuse to show anyone your game library unless they join some creepy private discord? you are way too fucking obvious now dude, and please seek help
Charles Reed
You can only marry her if you buy the game, so do it.
Owen Williams
I wish I’d kill for new DQM Joker I don’t care it was just a Pokémon clone it single handily got me into DQ
Kayden Johnson
ps2 first, 3ds second. 3ds version still has stutter on citra but no random encounters will make it a fast playthrough to see the extras.
Christian Perez
Did they reveal Erik’s DQM game last night or did they blue ball us
Jackson Jones
Souless Soul
Brody Turner
You must be an extremely young child if you think graphics are more important than content and mechanical improvements.
There was a rumor awhile back that some versions of DQX dropped the ip check. I think people said it was either Switch or PC, since they recently dropped Wii, 3DS, and Mobile
Dragon Quest had monster capturing before Pokemon was a thing.
Gabriel Morris
No, because I can load it on an HD and get all my games from Dark Umbra archives.
Let me guess, you're a bitch boy Shitch owner that's too scared about the truth, and defends the baby tablet with your life because its part of your identity as a "gamer". Fucking loser lmao.
Dominic Brooks
While you are right, DQM came out after Pokemon. Also didn't MegaTen predate both DQ5 and Pokemon?
Kayden Stewart
>patch notes are content lol
Luis Morgan
Who do people still feed the troll?
Jaxon Richardson
>content is content ...yes it is?
Alexander Long
You should understand the fanbase of the series you're trying to shitpost. Most don't even like that it's 3D.
Levi Bailey
because he's become so fucking obvious and still denies everything, it's too funny to me I know I shouldn't but it feels like scratching a spider bite
Carter Torres
I wish I had a mermaid wife. Only then will I be set for life.
Samuel Ortiz
Deny what exactly? I'm curious.
Easton Kelly
No, they are patches. The content listed is hardly anything for an 80 hour RPG that you will spend maybe less than an hour viewing this new "DLC tier" shit. It's like adding cosmetics.
Damn, Switch version really bothers you that much. Huh.
Oliver Scott
>new missions >new monsters >new attacks and synergies >new story content >new costumes >a new japanese dub with orchestrated soundtrack >new mounts >new modes
Hell it has more new content than most sequels have lately, so by your logic all sequels are just a patches.
>finally will be able to fight Gold Calasmos I really didn't want to buy the 3DS version for a super boss.
Brody Hernandez
Know what would be funnier? Depriving him of attention and watching him squirm instead of giving him exactly what he wants
Bentley Russell
>adding a 2D 16 Bit mode for the entire game is something you use for less then an hour >adding new music for the entire game >adding the ability to see your fucking party following you is only something you see for an hour cope
Caleb Nguyen
The last, what, 7 games have been 3D? Do you mean they don't want it to look good? Now that's just being retarded then.
Benjamin Smith
show me another game that has this much content added in a free patch then
Lincoln Fisher
announcing a demo?
Cooper Johnson
>Hell it has more new content than most sequels have lately, Again, not even close to near amounts to justify anything close to worth it. Its patch tier content.
Yes, >2D mode is shit used by autists >Music can easily be replaced on all versions, which is better than even the OG soundtrack >Literally useless tier cosmetic
Matthew Price
bloodborne only for ps4
Angel Rodriguez
they are adding a free demo of the starting area sometime next week, the important bit is what you do in it will save and carry over onto a save in the final version

There's a 100% chance that every Snoyshill that posts this picture and argues for graphics over content hasn't actually played any Dragon Quest games.
Christian Walker
>Cosmetic content >Mattering when your game looks and runs like shit on the Shitch Nope.
Jordan Cooper
what free content was added to bloodborne? some small quests, a few costumes vs 10 brand new areas, new music, visible party members, completely different graphical style
Juan Myers
Sure, try mod the PS4 version
Anthony Torres
How to make Eric go away. 1. Post his Youtube channel that he doxxed himself with. youtube.com/user/Zharkos 2. Laugh at him.

Kayden King
>mission claims you need to be around 40 to do it >every time I go in he fucks me up >finally look up people doing it an they're all level 99 man, the grind is too much in this game.
How to pretend everyone is "Eric" and blame all the Shitch's issues on a person instead of facing its multitude of issues: >Find someone being critical of anything Shitch related >Call him Eric >Pretend to DOX him (which is bannable) >Still get butt flustered when you run away from your problems and real discussion
Such is life as a Shitch fanboy.
Julian Harris
Thats not fucking modding you chromosome hoarding potato fucker.
By the same logic, you can play Bloodborne on your Switch by playing footage of it on the youtube app.
I was referring the PC version and PS4 collectively, moron. Literally anything works better than the shit portable version.
Lucas Jones
Anyone know of good ways to grind my guys up faster? People say you can get they keys to get into the metal slime king room from hunting them in the wild but I haven't gotten any in so long, and hunting kings is so fucking tedious even in the easiest areas to find them.
>Pretend to DOX him Oh no no keep telling yourself that. Have you forgotten Mega Man 11 already?
Gabriel Jones
Nigga it’s an anime game featuring really bad puns and the most recognizable character is a little blue slime we don’t need movie game graphics
Alexander Allen
Who?
Cringe.
LMAO It's hilarious how sure you are. Yet, you are the same person who runs away from a voice chat right?
Grayson Torres
That never works either. Oh well it's still funny to laugh at Ruggarel's microscopic snoydick whenever he shows up.
Ethan Moore
Why the fuck would anyone defend the PS4 version if you play it on PC? The PS4 version is unmoddable, is locked at 30 fps, and has framedrops. Any intellectual would ask the question : What do I prioritize, more content or better performance? So the choice will always be between the PC and Switch version.
Kayden Harris
It's Shitch* on this board, please use the correct term when discussing Nintendo's console.
Brandon Cox
Eric you're acting schizo again. You've been at this for 2-3 years maybe even more. It's time to stop and get help.
Jace Gray
Performance + Resolution > Patch tier content in an 80 hour game
Dylan Powell
>That never works either You've never seen it happen it in the first place.
Blake Adams
>muh patch Is this the new snoy cope?
Eli Rodriguez
>Actual DQ threads show up once in a blue moon >people let one dude keep ripping them to shreds
Which is why it was pointless of you to suggest that to begin with.
Ryan Morris
It wouldn't be pointless if all of you would just think for one goddamn second about what you are accomplishing by taking the most obvious fucking bait in the history of the world
Henry Scott
Sure John Bain, sure.
Caleb Hill
The reason we know it's you Eric is because you have a uniquely autistic writing style. Plus you always get this utterly flustered and defensive whenever you get called out.
Nicholas Morris
DAILY FUCKING REMINDER FAGGOTS: you can marry your waifu in the switch version and not in the ps4 version
Why does this guy pretend he's not obsessed when he keeps going around challenging people to discuss things VC? Does he not know he is very easily identifiable?
Man playing this kinda made me upset back when it launched since I was also playing DQ8 3DS thinking how it would have been better if they just waited. Its not really worth it, its an early Koei Switch game meaning it barely functions. Koei still have a rocky record on Switch, remember how DQB1 ran well and was made by Square while 2 didnt and was made by Koei?
to be fair DQB2 is far more demanding that B1 so is understandable.
also, I have heard that it doesn't worth but I want it anyways, outside Hyrule Warriors there are no decent musou on Switch.
Isaiah Lopez
2 is also using UE4 I think. Actually most of Koeis Musous are fine on Switch. FE is okay if you dont mind the bad cast but the new Warriors Orrochi was pretty good.
Noah Powell
I don't even like the Switch, just wanted to point out that you're really obsessed. I look forward to seeing your mentally ill ass sperging out in SMT V threads.
Adrian Morales
But it's not in english, so what difference does it make?
Gabriel Lewis
If you truly loved her you would be able to put up with a game you hated no questions asked
Switchfags and their nerfed PS2 hardware really didn't like this post huh
Joshua Johnson
Did they say if the save data carries over in such a way that I don't have to replay what would already played in the demo? Or is this demo like Bravely Default or Pokemon ORAS & SuMo?
I'm still not buying it And in these threads most people who will buy seem like they already like the franchise, if not have played DQ XI before
Luke Davis
Guess the demo will be a good chance to see how it runs, I don't mind the lowered graphics but if the framerate keeps fluctuacing that might stick me to the PC version
Brody Roberts
Do not feed the trolls.
Ethan Collins
NICE. Hopefuly it shows enough to decide if this will be my first DQ or not.
Christian White
Just beat DQB2, any post game stuff I should keep an eye out for?
Can I just have the 3DS version localized With the DQ1 code
Gabriel Rivera
Don't bother, the DQ1-3 remasters are not a step up from the SNES versions. Same backgrounds but slightly "polished" character sprites like in the FF1-2 remakes in PSP.
Hunter Cook
>this retard long list Fucking hell, gotta read all this
William Peterson
The things that matter: 2D mode Party chatter in fights Party visible in the field Chapter select Costumes not tied to armor slots
Xavier Fisher
>demo announced >tfw getting anxious about how it will look in handheld since i exclusively play portable >tfw will probably be 540p I know, graphics doesn't matter (when its convenient for the argument) but still. I'm so sick of seeing almost every switch game i buy run at lower than 600p. Or worst. Having frame rate issues too since this is done on UE4
why does square think ANYBODY likes that flash game aesthetic. PSP FFIV looked like a newgrounds knockoff of FF
Austin James
Maybe by performance, but in terms of features and gameplay switch>3ds>pc with mods > ps4
Michael Edwards
Well, they apparently contract two studios and the one that has the right idea (upgrade backgrounds, not characters) is doing Romancing SaGa 3 right now (their RS2 remake is fantastic!). A shame that all of them design the UIs for mobiles, so they look like wank.
Aaron Perez
It's insane just how much the Switch version gets over the others.
Let me think: * Complete 2D mode you can play the entire game in * Dual audio and more voice acting * Ability to explore past DQ worlds * Expanded storylines for each character * Various quality of life changes, can now also ride vastly more monsters as mounts and transmog gear with a vanity system * The OST is an actual proper orchestra one instead of the disappointing synthesized one - can also play with the DQVIII OST * You can now romance and marry a lot of characters in the postgame
>PSP FFIV looked like a newgrounds knockoff of FF Hey man I actually liked FF4 on PSP. It's the mobile ports of 5 and 6 that are the real travesties.
Ayden Peterson
They do sometimes, let's be frank, but definitely not in the case of DQ.
Carson Edwards
>wanting to play a modern full 3d game all blurry I think there is a misconception here. Graphics are one thing, resolution is an other. The issue here is resolution, things looking blurry, muddy or jagged.
Does this game have padding like DQVIII? Doing a bunch of shit just to fight Dhoulmagus was a chore.
Owen Campbell
Wait. What screenshots?
David Morales
The one on OP? There was another with a grassy field that is used for shitposting.
Jayden Perez
Will the extra content hit PC and PS4? All i care about is the japanese voices. Reason why i didn't buy the game on PC.
Brandon Reed
user, the on in the OP is pre-render. Also the one with the grass its been tempered in size so it doesn't help either
Austin Sanders
This, VIII, or IV are the best starters in my opinion.
Xavier Sullivan
Yes yes it did
Luis Cruz
He’ll just bump himself 5 times until he gets more attention
Grayson Powell
My bad. One would think people like Digital Foundry already got their hands on it.
Julian Cooper
>Literally over 9000 There’s a point where austim ends and straight up mentally illness begins
Michael Carter
Unlikely, there's rumors that Nintendo straight up paid for certain things (Orchestral music being the big one) and if SE didn't update FFXII Zodiac Age while the Switch and Xbox ones got a ton of stuff added I don't see why they would update this one
Alexander Rogers
That's a shame then but its just a rumor which i hope is not true. Would definitely like to get the game but i don't to get it on the switch.
Mason Young
I want to get dq11 on ps4 but man, all these additions are really tempting. Even if I have no idea what the dq10 world is, it still sounds really cool to explore it. And the new pixel style. May have to stop being a snoyboy for once and grab it on switch.
Blake Young
You should be able to grab a copy of the PS4 version for 10 bucks by the end of the year if you're interested in the graphics.
Jose Taylor
Nah, not really a graphics whore. Gameplay takes priority to me. Plus the graphics being bad on switch doesn't mean anything since I'll probably be using the sprite mode most of the time anyways so.
Grayson Phillips
It's not really a bad looking game by any means, the textures are very detailed. Although you can get that through videos, lol.
Samuel Sanders
Literally rent free. Every fucking DQ thread.
James Carter
Ohh, I didn't meant the one in the OP but the one below, with the horse. Sorry about that, just found out the mistake.
Brody Williams
Wait, did your partners really not follow you in the original? That's a key JRPG feature these days.
Matthew Jenkins
how about you actually play the game first
Levi Reyes
>NPCs lie to you Castlevania 2 flashbacks
Evan Morales
Eric really did delete his whole shitposting didnt he?
Ryan Myers
CUTE!
William Bailey
The PS4 wasn't powerful enough.
Isaiah Nguyen
Wait is this from the new content or in the base game? She is cute....CUTE
