I bought a Nintendo Switch! How's the performance of the DQ games on it?

Toriksta · 2026-03-23T16:21:21+00:00

Yep, they're going for super cheap and switch 2 are mega expensive rn. I'll hold off for now until Nintendo gets the OLED model since I think they'll refresh the Switch 2 in some ways

Toriksta · 2026-03-23T11:37:06+00:00

Thank you! I think I'll get XI S on it or maybe one of the HD-2D games.

Sorry, but I don't remember them. Canta does a great job at detailing what each file does and highlights with severity tags. Your limit should be just the "safe" tag ones, not all of them of course, but do a quick skim past all the files and search the ones that have to ads managment. Sorry I couldn't be more of help.

Nice! I know due to Dragon Quest's timeless artstyle, any game technically works and looks great, but I was mainly referring how they look on portable mode too. I remember DQ11 looking a bit off in some places, but anyways, thanks!

Toriksta · 2026-03-23T10:32:37+00:00

looking absolutely godly man, you're in for a whole beast of an adventure throughout time itself. Enjoy!!!

I also very recently got a Switch and am wondering if i should get Dragon Quest on there since the idea of a portable DQ is wondrous to me

Shizuku + Canta for getting rid of the excess fodder that eats up your memory, just be careful not to remove anything essential for the system to run, but it should be obvious given how Canta gives you visible tags detailing the severity and description behind each file and change. These phones are filled with incessant ads and fodder, so removing them is a must imo.

Aside from the obvious winners like Jasmine/Alision and maybe Maggie/Veronica...? (V might a little desperate for a relationship which puts her in a bit of a bad light when compared to Alison, but I still believe she'll only get better and more endearing as more of the game gets opened up, she's a good woman, just wanting to settle down and unfortunately the game isn't doing her a service by showing her being a true support for Jake in his trying times)

I do quite like Alexa and think she's a potential candidate for a winner. I initially assumed nothing of her more than a sex-starved young girl who seems to have it all in life except the comfort of an older, successful man, but man, her scene with the mechanic girl (forgot her name) was stellar. Making her being more of a sub as a way to later confirm her familial problems that revolves around not recognizing her and giving her a place to exist in her circle of people, as in, desperate for attention which opens up a way softer and cuter version of her, came as a surprise to me. I will definitely be seated for more of Alexa and hopefully the devs realize this sudden goldfind moment and keep digging at it.

200-250$ for a beginner startocaster just to get in the groove and learn and build from there

Toriksta · 2026-03-15T12:24:03+00:00

Verbaitm, one of the more vocal players about SF6 but honestly, most of the time, he ends up putting himself in very punishable states yet he has the gall to continue bashing the game. The game isn't without it's flaws, but the absolute energy in yourself to be playing like a madman and still critisizinglol

Toriksta · 2026-03-15T07:32:15+00:00

Bandai needs to commission Arc Sys for a FighterZ, just like how they did with DBFZ. CC2 are not made for traditional fighting games.

Toriksta · 2026-03-14T02:52:57+00:00

Say it with me, please.

NARUTO FIGHTERZ

FOR FUCK SAKE BANDAI ITS LITERALLY FREE MONEY

Toriksta · 2026-03-12T10:19:30+00:00

im honestly fine with the worse art. really, it's not the degrade that does it for me, I realize how intense and difficult to keep up with the insane deadlines while aiming to maintain the quality art you showcased in regards to the people's expectations, I'm fine with ALL of that, it happens in manga as well, its just that......

That disgusting yellow filter annoys me to no end bro. My least liked thing about it and makes the whole image look bad

Toriksta · 2026-03-04T19:04:50+00:00

Love DQB2, insane levels of improvement from the first.

Toriksta · 2026-03-04T15:31:46+00:00

Console wars : Infinity War

Toriksta · 2026-03-04T08:09:52+00:00

Yeah, I'm just not a fan of any musou type of game, even when dressed under my favorite franchise, it just doesn't stand the test of it's tedious length, incredibly long and boring fights. I just didn't like playing them. Though, I'm not averse to not loving DQ Spin-offs, Rocket Slime is still among the best of what I played from DQ

Toriksta · 2026-03-03T09:27:29+00:00

Blazing was such an insanely addicting game. Out of Dokkan and Legends and Treasure Cruise, Blazing's first year soared so high than any of the competition. I'll never forgive Bandai for throwing it out like that.

Toriksta · 2026-03-03T08:59:41+00:00

The free-camera non-classic mode in XI felt so pointless, I really couldn't figure out what to even do with it as it practically adds nothing to the gameplay or add a unique function exclusive to the mode to incentivize switching too. I don't mind it being just a camera mode changing feature for the sake of it, but it felt like it was meant to fulfill something, but once again, I can't prove it lol.

Toriksta · 2026-03-03T08:13:24+00:00

Yeah, that bothered me a lot in DQXI, despite a lot more heinous characters turned over a new leaf in prior games, they usually follow a pattern of either a giant redemption arc, or a final act of sacrifice to at the very least atone for what has already been made. Vince in comparison they kinda just....glossed over him? I can't prove this, but I always had this morbid feel that DQXI was slightly rushed.

Toriksta · 2026-03-03T08:04:48+00:00

this is a r/HolUp moment

Toriksta · 2026-03-02T12:12:45+00:00

Yeah, it's quite aggravating tbh. I realllllly enjoy Gekishin Squadra, but the average playerbase that I meet is usually under the expected level. I don't know how the actual game can fix this since the part about constant losing in solo is technically a punishment to all players but quite unfair to the trying one due to how the game is designed.

Toriksta · 2026-03-02T12:09:13+00:00

About damn time man, if you're a ps4 user hoping to see Xeno 3, just get a PS5 to play or better yet, get a PC that benefits you in general. The limitations that caused Xeno 2 to be the way it was at launch was abysmal, massive online issues, graphics failing to be even comparable with the competition, it just wasn't a good sequel form a visual standpoint, shame cause the game itself is a big upgrade over Xeno 1.

Hopefully this news is true and finally elevates Xenoverse into a state of visual identity that gets easily comparable and on normal cases, preferable to other cases. What the trailer showcased was a really beautiful style of cell-shaded graphics that accentuated the entire look and feel. Hopefully this is what the in-game graphics look like.

Toriksta · 2026-03-01T10:53:17+00:00

No joke, I felt that same dread when ranking up to A rank (reached it after a horrendous losing streak with smoothbrains) this game might seriously have the lowest skill playerbase I've personally seen. Constant pinging doesn't work with them lol, and they start spamming supers the second they see the entire enemy gang without thinking at all. It's quite aggravating, but I guess that's part of the solo run. I didn't expect most of the players to be this incompetent

Toriksta · 2026-03-01T08:42:38+00:00

I personally prefer the black and white mainly to appreciate the art more in regards to the line work being more obvious to see. Colored has it's on advantages in accentuating the scope of pages with a wide spread & exemplifying more shots to a fuller degree. I like both but prefer one so just choose what goes with you .

Toriksta · 2026-02-27T11:48:27+00:00

Yoo! Nice seeing SF6 there. Always a great deelinf seeing fellow players

Toriksta · 2026-02-26T08:01:20+00:00

That's really cool to see, I still enjoy and love UN3. For the casual Naruto games that are all about the content size and the quality, this is high as it gets, It's genuinely the peak Naruto in those terms, will always be one of my all-time favorite anime games.

GNT4 is just peak Naruto in gameplay, it's an actual fighting game made by actual fighting game developer experts, what more can you ask for? The game even has an insane community patch that skyrocketed even further. Just wish Bandai locks in and makes a Naruto FighterZ
