    Me and all my friends talk about how badly we want this game to come here, but we know it wont. I feel like it relies on the (relatively) smaller, more densely packed nation of Japan.

    Correction: After a few ranks the pots start giving other items as well. It's pretty much just herbs for the first couple of levels though.

    Aw man, four years after this video and only now I learn this is a legit, turn-based combat DQ game with GPS functionality. I was so hoping back in the day PKMNGO would have its original combat mode rather than the incessant, mind-numbing screen-tapping. But we're never going to get DQ Walk in the West, and even if we did it would probably quickly go the way of DQ of the Stars and DQ Tact. Sadge.

  • @anim604

    Currently still playing GO mainly because my wife and her best friend still play it with their group of friends. Being a more casual player on the side I see the appeal and the reasons both as to why it still has tens of millions of people playing around the world and why millions of others have dropped the game. From a presentation and mechanics stand point, this game is definitely much higher in quality compared to GO which I have consistently bashed as a game that looks like an indie mobile game (although in truth it is made by a multi-million dollar established company).
    Also, being a pretty huge fan of Dragon Quest, I would drop GO in an instant if this game made it West but I've been a DQ fan long enough to know this game has a 0% chance of making it into the Western Market. Why? Because literally no DQ mobile games ever do. Like the video states, DQ is extremely niche in NA/EU. The main series games has ports, sure, but no spin-offs ever made it over. SEA Region has seen a few games drop here and there but are quickly taken down with a year or 2 due to low interests or little activity.
    P.S. The genre of these games are called Mobile AR btw. Not sure if you were being sarcastic in the beginning there.

  • @yosoyunapina
    @yosoyunapina 5 років тому +1

    Whoa this looks cool. Can you talk about the monetization? What really turned me off from Pokémon Go was how focused the game design was around microtransactions. It felt really predatory and like the opposite of fun. If DQ Walk is doing something different then I am very very interested. I love the idea of games centered on walking around the real world but I haven't seen this realized in a way that really captures me yet.

    • @smashbear9315
      @smashbear9315 5 років тому +1

      It didn't really focus on monetization because you could get around £20 worth of pokècoins by just going on a walk but if your overweight of live in a rural place then i'll admit the micro-transactions start to take over...

    This would be hella amazing in the west... As a westerner who's played most of the dragon quest games I think this would be so fun. I like adventuring as is but didn't like pokemon go because it was too simple and repetitive. This looks like it would be a good addition to dragon quest line along side the western release of dragon quest for the stars.

    Aw man, I want it really bad. I've liked Dragon Quest since the first time I played Sentinels of the Starry Skies on DS, and I've only liked it more with each one I played. I genuinely don't know why the series isn't more popular over here... Its games on offer are really strong, especially nowadays.
    I guess I'll just have to wait and see, but the US is pretty huge, especially compared to Japan. That kind of personal detail would be tough to replicate. Not that I wouldn't be fine with something generic, of course.
    Here's hoping it gets brought over here! (And also that they release that Dragon Quest Heroes I+II Bundle on Switch in English, but that's another matter entirely. I'm not holding my breath, but...)
