Is Dragon Quest 9 Worth Playing Solo?
Переглядів 29 тис.10 місяців тому
I bought DQ9 on the day of release in 2009. However, without anyone else to play with, I felt I was missing out on this multiplayer-focused game, so I stopped playing after five hours. 15 years later, I give the game another whirl, and my opinions of it transform DQ9 DLC: (www.almarsguides.com/retro/walkthroughs/NDS/Games/DragonQuestIXSentinelsoftheStarrySkies/ActionReplay/) scroll down until y...

    Yes, definetely worth playing solo. The only thing I miss from those days, is the ability to buy extra stuff daily via the wi-fi feature, otherwise I never really needed internet to enjoy this game for a good while.

    It's the only way TO play. I know it has multiplayer functionality, but even if you find two people with DS consoles, the odds of them both having the game and wanting to play it at the same time are astronomical. If you can prove otherwise, then play it with me.

    Dragon Quest VIII is a crown jewel on a console that was stacked with amazing rpgs for its time. I was so hyped for it, as I was one of the 'Dragon Warrior' fans that was translation hacks of 5 and 6, and collecting the NES carts of 1-4. I was SO unbelievably hyped when this game was announced finally being localized. People told me not to set my expectations too high, and that I was too hyped. It didn't just meet my hype, but rather, surpassed everything I had hoped for.

    Just a heads up, for all those who are already loving this game, people have figured out how to unlock all of the "dlc" content on real hardware. You don't need any cheating devices nor anything. There's a certain way you can set up your wifi settings that will get everything downloades. Look it up! This game has so much content!

    Dq9 was my first dragon quest game and even after playing most of the other main line games, still remains my favorite. Honestly I had no clue it had multiplayer until my second run through. While playing multiplayer is fun, solo play is just as fun or even better

    I think people either love or hate the job system. I am one of those that hate it. It feels super grindy. Otherwise, the game is good but obviously because the job system is important to gameplay, I just couldnt finish the game. I played until soon after you make it back.

    Honestly, part of the reason I never had a problem with DQ IX single player is that it is no different than DQ III was back in the day, and having grown up with that, I don’t mind it in the slightest. Well, that and I never had access to anyone playing multiplayer, so it was no difference to me as far as lived experience. It’s still one I greatly enjoy to this day, despite my objections to a number of the really grindy mechanics and achievements.

  • @rendelldraw
    @rendelldraw Місяць тому

    It felt like DQ III so I don't mind the rest of the party not having active roles in the story. But when I played DQ X online, being able to go adventures with real people is a very interesting experience. I'm hoping if they port it to mobile, it'll also have at least local co-op. 🙏🙏🙏

    • @firzaprama7
      @firzaprama7 Місяць тому

      I'm currently on 70 hours playtime, the only other DQ that I have finished is 7. Compared to that game, 9 might have weaker story but It does well in character customization and more accessible job system. 7's multi-tiered job system required me to do a lot of tedious grind.

    I only played this game once with a friend back when it was released so I'm a little fuzzy on the multiplayer but I thought it was like an Ad Hoc mode and not WiFi. I think once you were connected to another player, you couldn't use the rest of your party members that you created, I could be wrong though. Either way the multiplayer makes sense for Japan but not so much other regions. I think GameStop at the time would have get togethers on special days in US to swap the maps. I just used another copy of the game on a flash cart with someone's save that had everything. I had a spare DS lite to get it done.

    Can you suggest good ds emulator? I own dq9 and ds and finishet it twice, last time in 2014 winter, and I think I'm going to replay 8 and 9 after I'll finish 11S. Last time I tried ds emu was back in 2009, it had small window, and I had to put my screen resolution to lowest to make that window larger. If that's the same now, then I'll just play normaly on ds or 3ds.

    There's a mod to get the best of both worlds: 3DS version + orchestrated music. That's how I played it and it was wonderful. Avoid the mobile version with discrimination because it's in portrait mode and such a masterpiece should NEVER be played like that.
