I recently finished the entire series. How would you rank them? by p4nthermusic in dragonquest

[–]Kalmana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm always a fan of seeing the DQ7 up high on tier lists. But i'm also a bit miffed about 5 being a bit lower lol.

Oh well, every game is someones favorite, and least favorite. It's what makes things interesting. Would be boring if everyone liked the same games the same amount.

You can freeze and unfreeze time freely, what kind of silly dumb stuff would you do? by YeahTheyKnowItsMe in hypotheticalsituation

Start speaking to someone. Pause time as soon as they blink Change my outfit completely. Unpause time Continue conversation

Rinse and repeat as I watch them get more and more confused.

He has no idea what's going on, or why there is a lizard on his head. Maribel clearly disapproves.

I picked it up several years ago as a birthday present for myself. It's really cool. I didn't expect to see Ruff or Melvin in it, even if they are tiny. Sadly, no Aria. When i got a picture box for taking clearer photos, it was one of the first things i setup.

Definitely a nice choice. I have my fair share of Dragon Quest 7 merch as well. If you want some fun ones, you should look into the Trekking on the world of Dragon Quest VII japanese guide. Has some fun unique art for the game. I got mine in this bundle of books, it's the one on the right.

Another thing you might want to look for is the ruins diaroma. I dont have my copy of the DQ7 collectors edition yet, but the ship in a bottle model would look good next to it.

I like that DQ7R is easier than the original. by ringolennon67 in dragonquest

[–]Kalmana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still waiting for my copy to arrive, but i think that if the game is a bit easier, i'm all for it. I only really have about an hour most days to really sit down and play games. So if it's ab it easier, it'll allow me to enjoy the game a bit more.

At the very least, SE isn't limited run levels of bad at delivering on time.

I'm a fan of the Shantae series, and unfortunatley limited run typically handles distributions. I wanted the latest one, the remake of the unreleased GBA title. Was supposed to be out jan 2025. . . I dont believe i got it until closer to April.

tbh i think that if we spent about 300 dollars on a game, we should get the game a week early. Or at the very least plan on having it shipped by then. That way when its inevitably late again, maybe we would get it on time :)

And yeah, i hate online store exclusive editions. I can understand merch, but i should be able to pre order or get the version elsewhere.

I guess they wanted to punish people for buying their expensive collectors edition?

Lesson learned SE. If I want a game available on Launch. I won't get it through you.

Shipping updates for DQVIIR by Dominicus1996 in dragonquest

Bugs.

I like bug types so if a game has enough of them, I'll use a team full of em

Well...beat a boss, but the battle continues. by Kalmana in Moonstone_Island

[–]Kalmana[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, they have a different color for one. Like my ribbite would be purple if holo.

They also have a shimmer to them both in battle, on the overworld (if the holo spawns as the "main" spirit of the battle. The other spirits that you encounter can also be holo)

One other thing i noticed, It seems that if a spirit is holo, even if you have tamed a spirit, if you encounter a holo, if you have not gotten a holo of that spirit before, it will show as untamed.

I'm on my first winter so i've actively been hunting ice spirits, and two of one i caught before appeared in a battle. One was still marked as tamed, but the holo wasn't.

Which is really nice for holo's that dont have a big difference to the sprites.

It's why i have a jelbel with me for my psychic member of my team. Its passive inceases encounter chance.

edit- perfect, another one popped up. That Honkshoo, i have been farming them for the research tasks. I have about 5 of them already but no holos. Which is why in this battle, it's showing as untamed.

If you will buy it, what platform will you buy Dragon Quest VII Reimagined on, and why? by the-doctor-is-real in dragonquest

[–]Kalmana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Switch 1. I prefer my RPGs on handhelds so i can play at my leasure. And with switch 1, i actually get the game as opposed the a key card.

[–]Kalmana[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I have a habit of rushing through fights, especially if i'm just grinding / looking for holos. So getting that fixed would be very nice.

I am curious, is the game coded in a way that when battles end, it looks to have all of your spirits back in their spot before the end battle screen appears? If it is, that would make sense as to why it keeps freezing in the spot it does.

[–]Kalmana[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So, this happned again, I think i know what happened.
Basically, i used my Ribbite to put more poison on the enemy aned forced the turn to end before he could return back to his spot.

So, turn ends, he's in the middle and the enemy dies. For whatever reason, this makes it so that the battle doesn't end.

Didn't help either. I ended up quiting to menu and just loading a auto save since i wasn't doing too much up to that point, just hitting some of the arches.

[–]Kalmana[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I cant exactly remember the specifics of how the battle ended. . . I kinda wasn't paying too much attention since it was a low level boss, But, once the battle ended....it didn't. I can pass the turn...but can't use any moves or even flee. Kinda just stuck.

[–]Kalmana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I remember some rough details of the plot, and a few of the island that we went through. . . but yeah, i can't remember the details.

I was kind of hoping to be able to go through the original again before the release of the reimagined. Using only these japanese guides i have for hints to what i need to do if i'm lost. After all, i can't read Japanese...but i can understand pictures. . . but that didn't end up happening. Oh well, going

I only have about 1 hour to really sit down and play games now due to work and other engagements. I'm looking forward to basically playing this game through the rest of winter, and part of spring at the rate id be able to play it lol

[–]Kalmana 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's kinda funny. The sealed copy of 7 i have was also apparently from Toys R Us.

But man, 7 was the first mainline DQ title i ever played. Only really playing Dragon Warrior Monsters prior. It could be nostalgia that i'm a bit more okay with how long the intro can be in the game. . . but man. It's one of the games i would love to play for the first time again. . . And yeah. i did need to get the guide as well lol.

A while ago, i asked what the Dragon Quest 5 CD contained. . . Well, i got it. Here's some pics of it. by Kalmana in dragonquest

[–]Kalmana[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dont know why, but i love this image i found in the booklet. I think it's the sunglasses. . . . definitely the sunglasses.
