    One Infinity Strash is another Eternity Streasure.

    Looks like a good bit of fun! But agree with you on the anime stills, would have been so much cooler to have them done in engine, as from the few ones you show they are real eye catching!

    Oooo thank you for this. I have been wondering about this game. Still on the fence unfortunately but maybe I will give it a try at some point. Some things seem up my ally like the battle system but the dungeon area has me hesitating a bit.

      I know the game was supposed to come out same time as anime they were announced the same day so I think they didn't wana have too many Spoilers but the game kept getting delayed... even after the anime ended the game didn't get released until now

    Certainly looks to exceed my expectations in both graphics and gameplay.
    While alot of the monster designs are from toriyama originally couldnt hurt the mention the artist for the dai manga koji inada when talking about artstyle.

      @@BacklogBattle dang. I know its minor, but for some reason I never like to see the numbers constantly appear on screen. I know it's just a game, but its kind of immersion breaking in the sense that im focused on random numbers instead of just the battle itself. Game still looks great though and I'm excited to check it out now after seeing your review. Thanks for the effort!

    Do you play many Dragon Quest games? It would be cool to see a video listing a preferred order to play them for someone interested in trying them out and wondering where to start, if you ever need to fill a content gap!

    Your review is the first positive review I've seen Alex. I appreciate that. Other reviews made it sound like this game was the worst game in history. While I'm a Dragon Quest fan, I have never seen the anime. The first hour I watched of someone's playthrough had me really enjoying the story. Since I can't play action games myself, I can only judge on whether I like the story or not. I find it quite entertaining. Thanks Alex!

    I am surprised that your review of the game is a bit more tame compared to one TH-camr who also had the game from Square but aside from music and animation, he stopped after a few chaoters as he saw the game to be repetitive and one reviewer who mentioned that the game was just an average action RPG with mediocre production values even on PS5........I don't know what that last guy was watching but while I do agree that using the still shots from the anime is and always will be a dumb idea for games following a show(in my case that would be that Arslan musou game), the in game engine looks beautiful at least. As it is, this game is just all right but I was honestly hoping for more news on Dragon Quest 3 2D HD remake and Dragon Quest 12 rather then ANOTHER spin off game, especially when we close to another one that is a prequel to a Dragon Quest 4 character who is super important. But this was still a good review as usual Alex!

    The combat gives me Ni no Kuni 2 vibes, but ya know... Fun. 😅 Haven't seen either anime adaptations, but I'm gonna add it to the least. I really haven't into anything Toriyama related outside of DB, and the few DQ games I've played.

    Idk man this game feels really cheap and lazy, i have for myself, this the 1st review i seen so far and you are giving the game a bit to much credit. The art work/game graphics is by far the best thing about this game. The rest of the game so far is jus making jus wanna want stop playing the game and go watch the anime instead ONLY because everything is a damn slideshow, i mean how cool would have been to actually play as Avin in the beginning instead actually watch the cutscenes or saving your golden slime friend from the fake hero instead of watch a slideshow. I jus feel like there could've been better not this really nice looking lemon of a game

  • @kylebatzer353
    @kylebatzer353 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    As someone who bought the game i can definitely say it is not as good as this review makes it seem. The story line part is more than 50% stills and cutscenes, might even be over 70%. Its that much time not playing the game. The only continuous play happens in the endless dungeon leveling up the bond memories. Outside of that it is dragon quest heroes 2 with half the action, not much fun, and still the same price. Criminal.
