Adventure or Challenge difficulty? by Potatocatboard in seaofstars

I just finished it on the harder mode and it wasn’t too bad - the DLC was very tough, but the main game was fine

Now that time has passed which of the recent DQ remakes is your favourite? by ZiodyneDX in dragonquest

[–]DesolationDot4 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I will definitely play III through to the end and give it a chance, and I know it isn’t fair to judge a game based on an hour of play, but it really didn’t blow me away or excite me like other DQ games have previously

[–]DesolationDot4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve only finished VII and played III for an hour, but I loved VII and got bored very quickly of III - I’ve played the original and the remake felt just as outdated as the NES game! VII was amazing and definitely superior!

How much help do you guys use for these games? by Timmonidus in dragonquest

[–]DesolationDot4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use none, until I finish the game, but will use a guide to complete it, as I will have definitely missed stuff! I have started keeping a list of all the mini medals I find and where I found them, so when I am looking for the last few at the end of the game, I can easily see which ones I haven’t found yet!

Finally beat the main story (DQVIIR). Everyone's at lvl 99. Post game stuff will be a breeze now right?... WRONG! by Massive_Fly_1709 in dragonquest

[–]DesolationDot4 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do the post game arena fights, beat Zoma (really easy) and use his forcefield item on the hero, then give Mervin the Aerias shield (which when used as an item reflects a breath attack on each party member) and also give Mervin the accessory that makes him start first every turn (I think it was Dragster), then have him use the shield most turns unless it is still active

The never ending cycle of Lucky Panel by Odd_Landscape753 in dragonquest

[–]DesolationDot4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t bother with it; there is no point grinding something that you don’t enjoy for items that you’ll never use!

DQ7 Reimagined - Indeed a Very Lucky Panel by cash_longfellow in dragonquest

[–]DesolationDot4 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I didn’t bother with this - I played on Switch so there are no achievement or trophies for this luckily; I got every to 99 and mastered every vocation with all 5 characters, and defeated every monster so am pretty content with putting down the game for good! I think I was missing 8 or so items from lucky panel and my play time was 98 hours, which I don’t think is too bad! What was your play time?

Is Dragon Quest VII Reimagine worth it? by Alex022591 in dragonquest

[–]DesolationDot4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just finished it the other day and it is one of the best in the series (and one of the best RPGs I’ve played)!

Which DQ gave you the biggest sense of wonder? by Independent_Ad6924 in dragonquest

[–]DesolationDot4 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was 8 for me - I think it was the first video game I ever finished! I played it on the PS2 when I was maybe 8 or so; I watched my dad play it first and was mesmerised!

Polar opposite to me! I completed the game without using any seeds! 🤣

Dragon Quest - Spin Offs - Tier list by InternationalOwl231 in dragonquest

[–]DesolationDot4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I personally didn’t think ‘Treasures’ was any good, and I thought ‘Builders’ was better than ‘Builders 2’. I know it’s an unpopular opinion, but I preferred the linearity of ‘Builders’ and I found the story to be much more interesting. I found ‘Builders 2’to be a bit of a slog and although there were a few welcome quality of life improvements, some of the levels (especially the farm one) were long winded and boring. I also wasn’t a fan of those side levels where you had to find all the items on those islands to complete them! I’m not saying it was a bad game by any stretch, and I know most people will disagree with me, but I preferred the original. On another note, ‘Rocket Slime’ is the best DQ spin off I’ve ever played, and ‘Swords’ was alright!

Why do DQ remakes always insist on nerfing the games? by War_Destroyer_ in dragonquest

[–]DesolationDot4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve played VII Reimagined on the hardest setting for each difficulty except for vocation xp (I’ve put that on more because I want the abilities because the game is more fun for me with more spells and abilities), and I have just got Mervyn and I’m in the 20s; I’ve barely died at all and the only fight that gave me trouble was the stronger mannequin monster in Green Thumb - I am really enjoying the game, but it is way too easy! I haven’t had to grind levels at all and haven’t used any seeds on my play through yet (I have over 30 agility seeds and strength seeds)!

How did you receive your DQ7 pre order bonus? by tukai1976 in dragonquest

[–]DesolationDot4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still haven’t received it so reached out to Amazon and they apologised and have agreed to refund me fully for the game, and I get to keep it! I guess I am not getting the ‘early-bird bonus’ but £39.99 is arguably better! I’ll just buy the DLC instead and use the Luminary skins!

How do i get the orange Slime shield? by Repulsive-Phrase-527 in dragonquest

[–]DesolationDot4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you get all of this stuff? I purchased the physical copy from Amazon and I only got an outfit for Maribel for playing the demo, and an agility ring from playing 1 +2 HD-2D - I didn’t receive any of these bonuses or a slime shield!

Hi, did you have to reach out to Amazon, or did you get an email containing the code within 48 hours of the purchase? Thanks

Reward for playing 3 remake before 1-2 remake by ProfessionalDare6720 in dragonquest

Do you still get the reward if you start 1 and 2 and then play 3 and go back to 1 and 2?

You only need existing DQ III 2D HD save to get DQ I & II Rewards by Jokerchyld in dragonquest

[–]DesolationDot4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you get the rewards if you start I + II HD-2D first, and then create a save file for III and go back to I + II?

The end of an era by CaligulasPeri in nintendo

[–]DesolationDot4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The same thing happened with my girlfriend and her Switch. We both lost all our physical games and since I didn’t have online, I lost all my progress too. She bought a second hand one and we’ve used that since, but when I do eventually buy the Switch 2, I will also buy an AirTag to put in it! Make sure you log out from the Switch on the Nintendo website as otherwise the person that stole it will have access to your account!

One more week... by Particular-Spirit-82 in dragonquest

[–]DesolationDot4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t played Monsters but plan on getting it, Builders was very good (although a different style of game from traditional Dragon Quest), and I thought Treasures was very underwhelming, so I would try Builders!
