8 Reasons Dragon Quest 11 Is One Of The Best RPGs On PC

[@lmaocat759]

100 hours into the game,No microtransaction, the post game is huge with story, basicly just like a free DLC, true JRPG experience.

[@chrisdsx5]

Jon Seth I just got into the post game and this game is amazing! It is so much more than I expected and I have played all of the DQ games.

[@Yorosero]

It’s the gold standard for JRPGs. Pure magic.

[@lmaocat759]

Yorosero agree,nothing can top this series forever for me.

[@Snowman8frosty]

It truly is huge I thought I was done 60 hours in! It deserves the scores it got!

[@talobassprog]

this was my first DQ ,yesterday i finish the game with 138 hours and platinum just the best game for my in this 2018

[@georgythegenesis]

Just finished it yesterday after a 110 hours of gameplay, still 5 achievements left. Enjoyed every second of it, and yeah it became the best in the series for me.

[@AscendedBeyond]

Wow I finished it yesterday too lol 92 hrs for me but i didn't go for all the accolades

[@andrewn8002]

I'm still working on fighting Mordegan. 😆 I'm at the Dark Citadel, but... His last form just chomped me to bits!

[@AscendedBeyond]

@@andrewn8002 I was inbetween 50-55 when I fought him I believe if your level is to low go do hallelujah pepe and electro light pep grinding in the first forest

[@georgythegenesis]

Andrew Level up a bit in the citadel with metal king slimes, get around LV 50 and you're good to go. After this part the true game will begin btw!

[@AscendedBeyond]

@@georgythegenesis looking for singular king metal slimes isnt very efficient in this game because of how rare they are imo. The pep grinding took me from like 55 to the 90's in like a few hours Especially if you know how to play the casino and can get pep pips in the 2nd post game casino(no spoilers)

[@einherjar4902]

I cant even watch this review because i am waiting for the switch version... I love DQ to death so wait is really hard for me... And YT just doesnt stop recommending me DQXI videos ._.

[@ludovicmercier1364]

I'm in a situation where I got the game on PS4(as I found myself owning one due to uniquely situational reasons) but the day it's out on Switch in the west is the day another PS4 hits the used console market. Also sincerely, if you can afford it on PC it might be worth considering either ways. Or at least consider it as a gift for friends who might be able to play it on PC while you wait for your own Switch version. The game *deserve* to be better known and if it doesn't sells, I fear it'll be the end of it for the franchise in the west :/

[@odanemcdonald9874]

Mohammed Al-Sahaf I have tendency to dip the quality and bump up the speed when a I feel like a review boiling down or losing focus... It didn't even occur to me while watching/listening here until the tags for other videos showed up at the end to remind me the video was done. I was about to comment on it myself and saw your comment. I agree with you and am replying to elevate your comment. Masterful review Noa, and on a topical note, the points you've outlined and difficulty and linear open world and and such have SHIFTED my perspective on die hard game design.

[@geth--head6380]

Alot of reviews do that 😂

[@chrisstone-streetlightinte5629]

The thing about Dragon Quest, it's like living in a fairy tale, which is something that was established all the way back with the first entry on the NES. Dragon Quest is a guarantee, comfort food if you will. While the earlier games in the series were really difficult, the later games are well better paced and that's one thing I've loved about XI. The Pacing. It feels like no part of the game in the 45 hours I've played so far has over stayed it's welcome. Cut scene's get the point across. They develop characters, the plot, and move along. I think the characters are some of the best in the entire series. I've loved all of them. The voice work is superb, which is a rarity in Japanese localized products...except for that mermaid, she kind of annoyed me a bit. Anyways. I've played and beaten every main entry in the series, some multiple times. So for someone like me DQ 11 has been an absolute treat because it takes everything the series is, improves on it, and keeps it interesting. I love this game!

[@mahfoudissam1285]

since the release of the game I play in draconian mode but only the option that makes the fight difficult and more complex, and believe me my friend ,is a pure pleasure to play like that I'm at 36 hours of playing and I all just beat the kraken and I felt so proud after killing him caus with draconian mode it's so difficult ,so i give you advise try play the game with draconian mode and your experience will change,the game become better with this option

[@baalfgames5318]

Honestly, you shouldn't throw around Comfort food like it's an absolute. I mean, I don't know enough about this game, but if it's another one of those stories were basically everything that isn't human is evil, then that is my definition of rotten food. I know I say this a lot, but I feel like people really need to see why that's a problem. So I have to ask, does this game do exactly as I described, or is there actually the idea that humans aren't these perfect creatures and only they are capable of good intentions?

[@realevostevo]

Mugo Urth Oh no, the Dragon Quest series isn't like that. In fact, in Dragon Quest 5 you can recruit monsters you defeat. In Dragon Quest 8 there's even a village of friendly monsters so the series isn't built around such a black and white approach to good and evil.

[@muhsetio]

@@baalfgames5318 Basically, you're scared that this game will be shallow in stories like ni no kuni 2 right? Where its just usual evil vs bad like game for a child. Then no. Its not like that. Stories of DQ is deep, have lot of twist. What makes it different is how they presented the story in a calm, perfect pace that make you understand the point little by little while you relaxed, like reading a storybook. Not jumping into conclusion so fast.

[@baalfgames5318]

@@muhsetio no, that wasn't my worry at all. My concern is how does this game portray life outside the human race? Is there non-human life that can show compassion towards other life? Are there monsters that can form a bond with the main characters? Is there none human life that actually helps the main characters in their battle against the antagonist or other forms of wrongdoing? Or do non humans exist purely to destroy humans, are only capable of Destruction and show no signs that any life outside the oh-so perfect human race can have any good intentions? Are there actually good non humans in this game that don't eventually die or turn evil? For are the extent of "non-human" Goodguys limited elves or humans with cat ears? That is what I am worried about. Generic Good vs Evil stories I can tolerate. What I cannot tolerate is this blind narcissism humans have consumed themselves with that causes them to believe only they are important to this world, that only humans can do good and that all other life exist either as a nuisance or as an object. Humans are rapidly going down this path, and media that does exactly as I explained isn't helping. That is what I want to know: Does Dragon Quest 11 do anything to dispel the idea that humans are the absolute good.

[@CtrlAndF4]

This game is absolutely amazing, my first Dragon Quest game and what a delight it is. The beginning is slow as per usual in JRPGS but this game does have a few very interesting twists and turns, im 50 hours in and i still feel a long looong way from the ending of this game. The attention to detail is one of the things that amazes me the most, be it from someone cooking food and the food actually moves when they swirl the frying pan to the copious amounts of diffrent death animations for the monsters in the world, among other things. A definite recommendation.

[@chrisdsx5]

SunsetAmethyst I love seeing people get into Dragon Quest for the first time. It is a series that focuses on story telling. And DQ11 is just beautiful on top of that...

great review. you should review more games.

[@Sco6014]

first off. Great review! you covered a lot of elements in a short video. I am a DQ veteran. DQ1 (or dragon warrior) was one of my first games on the NES. This new game is really great. the Toriyama drawings are fully actualized and the personality of a dragon quest game is absolutely stunning in a full 3D environment. the characters really pop. love it. can't wait to get this game!

[@TheInvaderDust]

Kai and Michelles story hit me today on a pretty deep level. First time ive cried over a game in a long time. Im a grown ass man, sad over a mermaid. This game is fantastic. Fan-Flipping-tastic. One of the best ive played, and ive played a TON of RPGs since Dragon warrior 1, a majority of the FF up to 12. All my life ive been playing these games and this one just hits all the right marks. Already planning my second playthrough and im only 40 hours in!

[@Rhythmicons]

That was the only time I think the game really hit on the emotional level they achieved with VIII. The other story concerning a previous part of the story I thought was forced and didn't have the impact that anything on VIII did.

[@GenocideNiev]

I can’t wait for XI S on Switch this Friday!!!!!

[@matthewmooon8185]

"Look at him in his little beard" took me out love it. But I felt all of these points in my soul, I'm very impressed with the game.

I learned yesterday that my first RPG was Dragon Quest... well Dragon Warrior on NES. I didn't know the series had changed its name. I'm now on a quest to... get caught up on Dragon Quest!!!! Wish me well in my journey! Also, recommendations are very welcome. ^_^

[@eduardodiaz5762]

Dragon quest 8 is a must... I also started with dragon warrior 1-3, and final fantasy 1-4. But I really liked DQ VIII, try to Chrono trigger too it's not the same games, but it has the same style of rpg and it's highly good story!

[@maximilian6830]

Actually it was always dragon quest, apparently they changed the name to warrior when they localized the game in English.

[@DaegdaGames]

I have 110hrs racked up and I STILL haven't beaten the game yet but, I think I am nearing the end though. The battle system is so much fun and I don't get tired of leveling and fighting monsters. as a result for almost every battle my team has been overleveled. I am not playing with hard mode enabled so it's just very relaxing, the music, the story, everything... So many times the game has pulled on my heart strings.. it's a brilliantly done.

[@dapanduh6490]

My wife stopped beating me after I beat the demo

[@TheCodingGamer]

[@amancalleddanger]

Got this as a Christmas gift. One of the best gifts that I've ever received. Grew up on Dragon Warrior and Final Fantasy games in the late 80s and early 90s. Nostalgia and pure enjoyment is what this game truly is for me. As a table top D&D player and old school console gamer of yesterday, Dragon Warrior (Quest in Japan) was my jam. So happy that they took their time and released this properly instead of the money grabs like Fallout 76 and Star Wars Battlefront. I got burned on both of those games. Great review and is the staycation I was looking forward to.

[@companyv7459]

Review was really good! Fitting for an amazing game, as well. The humor was very well executed, too!

[@DavetheTurnip]

Your writing, the flow of the sentences, the jokes, the metaphors. It was all delightful. I'll be checking more of the channel's content out to see if some of this style can't rub off on my own work :D

[@WilbertBeltman]

I loved feeling rewarded for paying attention, I make sure I talk to everyone I can, and take in the scenery, whenever I tackle a side quest and they want me to go to someone or somewhere, I already know what they are talking about, and I can just go like "Oh yeah I can do that no problem" where as with bigger bloatier open worlds people often refer to things in quests that I haven't seen or am not aware of, and I just accept it, and run around for a bit can't find it and either give up, or look up where I have to go if there's no quest pointer, but with Dragon Quest I wouldn't even need one and I love it

[@jaydennkuroi3311]

I live in the Bahamas and still stay inside playing this XD

[@kevinarmitage6114]

Its one of the best ever. Takes me right back to Dragon Quest 8, which I also loved, but is different. I'm on my second play through, and I'm enjoying it just as much!!! Hopefully They'll think of an expansion, because this is a master piece that I want to continue.

[@t3jf]

First dragon quest game for me since the orginal Dragon Warrior on nes. I have really been enjoying it.

[@not2shabby]

Dragon Quest 11 does something that few games actually do well; It introduces new and exciting mechanics, such as crafting items and riding monsters, while still keeping the original formula and not messing with what makes the Dragon Quest series so damn grand in the first place. One of many, many, many, MANY reasons why this game is so absolutely stellar. EDIT: Bonus points for mentioning Persona, my OTHER other favourite JRPG series.

[@TheCodingGamer]

Mhm, compared to something like Pokemon Sword and Shield that is removing all the good stuff and not adding anything interesting, DQ always feels fresh.

I fell in love with JRPGs from the trails in the sky series, followed by Trails of cold steel, all on PC. Needless to say I've only recently truly discovered the JRPG genre (I mean outside of Zelda, and FF series from childhood) and I can't get enough of it in the modern era of it. This game was everything I could have hoped for!

[@Evanz111]

D Will I can’t recommend Trails of Cold Steel to people enough. No game has ever made me care about characters or the plot as much as that game has.

[@Dxwill10]

I know man, I've recommended it a lot but.. it's a hard sell around here in the west. Outside of the Zelda and FF games, it's just not a huge genre over here. I loved trails in the sky but.. I'm a minority in that I enjoyed trails of cold steel more. I can't even pinpoint why or how.. the characters were all awesome (except Machias, he gets less intolerable if you do his bonding events but otherwise...I kept him around in my party bc his Burst Drive was just too good), and I loved Rean. I don't know why! He's nothing special, in fact he's a supremely great example of a stock anime hero. I don't care, I named my Dragon quest 11 hero Rean! Why did I do that?! I might as well named him Link, or, My Dude. Anyway, yea, trails of cold steel is what truly solidified my obsession with JRPGs. It's a freaking masterpiece, and I get genuinely sad when I think about how long we still have to wait for cold steel 3, let alone 4! I've actually considered learning Japanese just to play those games ha

Played every DQ except 10. 30 hours into 11 and it's becoming my favorite one on the series. Yes, the orchestral score in 8 is better BUT I still play the NES games and love the chiptunes, so it doesn't bother me, especially since the compositions are consistently good throughout the series.

[@angrydrunkengerman2819]

I also liked how this game (and series) takes the "Shrek" approach to its story and interactions. It's appropriate for children but if mom or dad are playing there's some adult jokes in there that should sail right over the heads of younger players. Not crude, but playfully adult.

If you are masochistic, love cheesy/cliché stories and you like trunks from dragon ball, this is your game

I do think that random encounters, how annoying they can be at times, raises the risk factor. In Dragon Warrior, you had better get your butt back to the inn before you die and lose half your gold. That is part of the price you pay for being a hero sometimes.

[@alexandrelaframboise4639]

The ONLY drawbacks this game has is how Hard Monsters Mode is not the default difficulty (normal mode being too easy), and how there's no different Overworld theme during the second act of the game, which makes it very repetitive. Aside from that, I absolutely love everything else.

Not just on PC....... it’s the best RPG of all time across all platforms. The one to the Switch will even better with the music that’s really orchestrated. Extra gameplay in side quests and backstories to the characters. The Japanese voice package if you want that. The secret spirit town where the spirit people live. You can switch between 16 bit or the full on 3D. It will be portable as the Switch is very well. The characters with you will follow you now when you walk around. How PS4 and PC didn’t have this is beyond me but Nintendo Switch will have it in Dragon Quest XI S. I’m not even getting paid to say this..... really. Now I’m trying to find out if here will be a password feature where you can continue from where you left off even if you played the game on a different system.

i agree because i also feel that this is one of the best RPGs I ever played, but what's the point in saying that the switch version will be better though? Is it to make us feel bad because we don't own a switch? I'm sorry but I only have a PC

[@sobasically9720]

At the intro they say something about not being able to go to vacation because of prices, no you're wrong we are trapped in our houses, not poor.

Never played a dragon quest game I’m gonna get it on switch when it comes out.

Why would you recommend turning off movement in combat? It's completely harmless and turning it off makes some weird auto camera stuff that's gut churning. And it's a thumb twiddling good time* when you're in a string of long battles. (Thanks, Tim Rogers)

This review is a thing of beauty.

[@MrBorington]

This is a very detailed review, your voice is very good, thank you ! One more to my backlog list haha.

Anyone remember when dragon Quest 1 a.k.a. dragon warrior came with your nes console?

[@guybrushthreepwood8174]

This just came to game pass, feels like it's hitting 60fps most of the time on the Xbox one X and looks really nice on a 4k tv also 👍

[@imslayer9767]

At the first sight, I really loved this game.

[@katesometimeslate158]

Thanks for this, usually hate most people's quick review of one basic mechanic of every game. Somehow I've never played Dragon quest and this made me buy it just now. I love that japan knows not every (open world game needs to be huge.) Persona 5 would not be as polished in each palace etc if the world were completely open world.

[@Skwall]

Fuckin well written test. That's why I love you guys at RPS.

Another reason to play? Veronica in her cat outfit....that is THE most adorable little girl ever!

[@dysthymia4784]

not familiar with her character i take it lol

[@jeffjackson9679]

Her voice was like nails on a chalkboard and/or Sharon Osbourne half drunk.

[@igable82]

I know some of her character, like she is actually an adult turned young again since her power was taken, also know what happens to her near the end and post game. I actually don't mind her voice so to each thier own. She still looks super adorable to me and I like her attitude.

[@StraightcheD]

"Yeah!! ...Honey." is the best line in the game. I think the thumb nail for this video might be it.

[@ryankoopacanada]

jeff jackson I agree tbh

[@cr-nd8qh]

Veronica was my favorite character by far..

[@GeonQuuin]

I'm just about to fight the final boss. And based on many posts on Reddit, the post-game content is filled with enough stuff to last for > 30 hours!

[@ahmedfalahy9337]

@@MrLinkDeity Shh. Spoilers 😉

[@ronzard8045]

Final boss as in Mordegon orrr you talking about a different one?

[@grantfielder]

DQ11 is just right I say. DQ1 was my first love in gaming. It's lovely to look at, and has just the right pacing.

[@presidenttrump2042]

I wish more games would take ques from this kind of genre
