Is the Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake a good remake?

I had similar feelings toward the game, it looks beautiful and the new narrative additions are a nice tough but by the time I beat the first major villian I was ready for it wrap up. The vast improvements were nice but it still felt pretty archaic with a thin story and WAY too much mandatory grinding to me, especially being a 60 hour game

Completely agree. The sheer amount of grinding and content is nice to have but towards the end of the game it just got so tedious, especially since the entire world map had increased in size and the random encounter rate was so high.

@ For me the higher difficulty contributed too, I don’t mind challenge in RPGs since it can encourage more tactical gameplay, but when it results in you needing to grind for hours and get all the best equipment to even have a shot at some of the bosses on normal mode I think the game goes a bit too far.
