1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

I've been waiting for this to drop from the first trailer. Fantastic remake with a lot of tools to help first time players.

Anyone else playing?

60 dollar remake game with denuvo on it, no thanks I'll pass no matter how good it is.

I never played Dragon Quest, but these remakes make me very hopeful that we'll see a Chrono Trigger remake similar to these.

That would be awesome! I have a lot of games I'd like to see in the HD-2D style.

Let there be this kind of light in these dark times.

If the pandemic should have taught you anything is people will pay for nostalgia

Due to my financial situation I shouldn't be buying any games right now, but this is so tempting to buy anyway.

You could always sail the seas 😉 then pick it up later when your finances allow.

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 11 points 7 months ago

I imagine with denuvo he'll have to wait a moment before he can sail the seas. Not too long, though.

Hold yourself over with emulated DQ 1 and 2!

I want it and even though I have the money I'm not spending $60 American on it. Same deal with the new Secret of Mana game.

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago

I adore the first trilogy of DQ games but I'm holding off cause I don't like or trust SE anymore (plus, denuvo, ugh).

I will say, it's a better experience to play 1 thru 3 in order with no prior knowledge of what makes them a trilogy. Having 3 stand alone kind of misses that "oh fuuuuuuuck" realization I got to experience (and subjected a friend to, who has yet to forgive me lol). It's what made 3 one of my favorites next to 5 and 11.

Just started! It's been a minute since I played the Gameboy Color version, but the orchestra versions of the music are immediately familiar.

[–] pastel_de_airfryer@lemmy.eco.br 5 points 7 months ago

I might pick it up in the near future. I don't have much nostalgia for the NES Dragon Quest games, but this one looks amazing.

If they remake DQV and VI in this style I will buy it in a heartbeat! And yes, I know V had two remakes already, but none of them are available on a modern platform.

Would prefer ff6 in this style, imo the greatest final fantasy ever made, moreso than the overrated ff7. FF6 deserves some love, the music, the story, the combat and blitz mechanics, the scale of it all is just so damn impressive for a 2d jrpg.

[–] MacedWindow@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

FF6 is also overated 2 is king
