Square-Enix has delivered many children unto us across the decades, but the world takes special interest in two of its offspring: Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy. Though he's over 30 years old, Final Fantasy never settled down. He probably never will.

Loved Dragon Quest VIII and have been waiting patiently for XI. It's amazing! I've logged well over 200+ hours and find myself delaying the finish because I don't want it to end. The graphics are a joy, gameplay is classic with a nice character builder, and the amount of content is immense.

Amazing gameplay and great story

What I can say..Dragon Quest is just a superb game and a must for the jrpg lover! The delivery was super quick!

I loved DragonQuest VIII and this one is almost as good as the past one. Recommend if you like J-Rpg

It is great to have another top notch jrpg available for this console generation especially the first dragon quest game to home consoles in the west. This game has everything you need a great story and beautiful animations treat yourself to this gem.

Beautiful scenery and location design continuously make Erdrea visually engaging; The slimes are smiling and it is still super cute; Gotta love that Toriyama character design; All the traditional JRPG tropes are here at their best

Lots of quality of life improvements; item crafting/improvement adds suprising depth to equipment system; the best-looking Dragon Quest game to date; good combat AI; good characterization

Same basic gameplay from the past couple of decades; towns start feeling far too similar, except for visual flair; skill system is a little bland

It would be legitimate to complain that Dragon Quest XI and the franchise as a whole has not evolved much, and less patient players may balk at the game's grind-heavy, deliberate pace and missing features like save-anywhere systems, tactical positioning or even character models that don't reflect...
