✦ AI summary
DRAGON QUEST® XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age™ - Definitive Edition is a massive traditional JRPG that offers beautiful graphics, an excellent orchestral soundtrack, and a huge amount of content spanning nearly 200 hours, with smooth performance across platforms and rewarding exploration. However, players note that the first bulk of the game relies heavily on familiar RPG tropes and can feel like a chore to push through, with bland NPC dialogue and a fairly straightforward "save the world" narrative, though the later portions and endgame challenges improve significantly.
TLDR: a super long, Ultra (for better and worse) traditional RPG that has made me question just how many games in my life I want to beat in my backlog like this It took me a while to play this because I knew it was long. To start off, the first 85% portion of the game was very hard for me to push through and to continue coming back to. Progressing the plot was a display of discipline instead of enjoyment. The reason is because if you've played any rpg ever before you've seen all of this before 1000s of times. The game rewards exploration, theres many towns many deadends with treasure chests, many hidden items. The dialog with NPCs is very up-the-middle "save us Hero!" the dialog with your party members is bland in the way a 90s cartoon has a way of filling up the 30 min saturday morning timeslot with back-and-forth semi-useless or redundant exposition. It's not BAD, just imagine a Inspector Gadget episode or the TMNT arguing over pizza for a bit too long and that takes up a bit too much time. The disappointing feeling can be summarized as how when we were kids playing these games we felt like children playing something restricted for adults, but now we are adults it feels lik…1 found this helpful
This is the first Dragon Quest game I've played, and boy, it sure rocks! You play as the silent protagonist Android 17, or at least a lookalike, who travels the world or Erdrea to fulfill his destiny (so what else is new?). This game is absolutely massive! It took me almost 200 hours to finally beat the final boss (a tough one) and I still haven't completed all quests. Graphics are great and the orchestral score is absolutely gorgeous. The action is kinda tame compared to other JRPGs (ahem, Final Fantasy) so I guess this RPG is more like "for younger RPGers". Bottom line, great game and no JRPG fan should miss this one. I wonder what future character designs will be now that Toriyama-san is gone.
Challenging and interesting to play.
New to Dragon Quest and loved the Erdrick Trilogy HD2D remakes. So I wanted to play this since it is a prequel to III. This has hands down become my favorite game in the series so far.
Game is smooth as butter both in PC and with a Steamdeck, Fun JRPG game, where you can go dual swords, dual boomerang, dual wands, so good.
While I don't love the Christian symbolism, the game broadly plays well and is pretty cute, and I enjoy it, when the mood strikes.
