Metal slime earrings reduce most kinds of damage by 25 %. With the right equipment, somebody like Yangus or Angelo could be near immune to certain attacks.
It kind of bothers me that a 3DS can play IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX and XI. Because they're not all of them. But they look like they're supposed to be all of them.
Light Dragon Charm can be downloaded for resistance to Sizz-spells and immunity to Bang-spells, which are among the more pressing concerns for backrow-characters due to dealing damage with even potency to all targets.
It's just too bad they haven't specified whether we're getting only one or both. The PS4 version is a sure thing, but the 3DS version is the one that has been up in the air given the circumstances.
The 3DS version is pretty wildly different from the PS4 version. Comparing the polygon based appearances against eachother the PS4 version is going to win, but the alternate sprite-based style you can set that more closely follows its predecessors has a unique charm to it - a lot of love was put into the sprite and background detail that definitely makes it worth picking up for.
The LE box set that Japan got that comes with both versions would be pretty rad but I don't see SE putting that kind of effort into it.
I love 9. It was the first main series entry I seriously played. Prior to 9, my only experience was with playing 8 at a friend's house on his PS2.
9 was the first game I owned myself, and so all of the silly puns, written dialects, and tropes that are repeated in the DQ series were first introduced to me in 9.
I have since gone back and purchased nearly all of them. I own 1-3 on my iphone, I own 4-6 on DS, 7 on 3DS, and soon 8 on 3DS.
I don't mind the stories. They're lighthearted and a bit generic. But they're also not super serious. Sometimes the heavy-handed world-ending universe eating demi-monsters of the Final Fantasy series can be a bit much. The DQ series is a comical, light-hearted alternative.
Honestly I don't like the FF ones any more than I do the DQ ones. I want VERY little story, if any, in all my games. I just don't have the patience anymore.
Interesting. I primarily play games for their narrative. I'm uninterested in
But it is for primarily the same reason as you: The games I play are finite. Beginning, middle, end. I invariably lose interest in competitive shooters (Overwatch, Destiny) after some time no matter how good they are. I don't even touch MMOs anymore. If a game has no or little narrative, the gameplay had better be nigh orgasmic or I have no interest.
I will never play an RPG solely for the gameplay. You better have a damn good, robust story or you can fuck off into my never, ever pile.
In other words, I don't have patience for games that are nothing but gameplay.
(This isn't meant to counter your philosophy in any way, I just thought it was interesting how we differ.)

Ayy this is exactly the same for me.
I require a narrative. Thus why the indie scene everyone seems to be big on doesn't do much for me. Not that there aren't games there with a narrative but a lot of it doesn't focus on that and thus it does nothing for me. I want a narrative and I want it to have a proper conclusion. Also why I don't replay games because after the first time it is no longer about the narrative since I already know the entire narrative.
I generally do not replay story-heavy games, at least not right away. Not until I've had a chance to forget the story. Like with FF12. I played it through to completion on PS2 but at this point I barely remember it. Playing the remaster is almost like a new experience. Almost.

I wish I didn't remember as much of it because I could really go for a jurp right now and the updates to it make it seem like sooooo much fun.
Current combined total, 2 million copies sold in the last two days. The 3DS version selling an amount more than the PS4 version. This is not including digital download sales.

The first one was better than this by a long shot.
I don't think DQ3 was ever released in Europe.
Haha, I didn't know that Maribel kicks the barrels if any are left in her way.
And there is apparently a lot of alternate dialogue for doing certain things out of order.

Sounds like the chances of it coming to the West are approaching 100% :P
This information is based on nothing.
Except for the fact that 4,5,6,7,8,9 are all on DS/3DS.
This right here. Sorry 3DS but the PS4 version is too beautiful and smooth to pass up.
Now, if we get a simultaneous PS4/Switch release in the west I'll have a real decision to make.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Feels very much like an old JRPG with new features... but not so much that it's cluttered with new shit that ruins the experience.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I don't know what gave you that idea

Unsurprisingly, DQ11 is selling out in Japan. Interestingly, some stores have even had to dedicate registers to only handling DQ11 purchases.
I was just there recently.
Ads for the game were EVERYWHERE.
Like they had giant slimes just vinyled on to buildings that had seemingly nothing to do with video games.
It was crazy and awesome.

I think the game did pretty okay, guys
Still many times more than Zelda sold just based on the PS4 copies.
That's damn good.
