Welcome back everyone, today we're talking about the Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake that got announced at the 35th anniversary event last month and why I think you should be excited regardless of whether you're new to the franchise or not. This game looks amazing in every way and I am so excited! Hope you enjoy! - Ігри
It’s still mind blowing that this is what DQIII Remake looks like.
I would have been fine with just the Super FamiCom remake of DQ III.
in Japan they released DQ I - III on one Disc on the Wii .
DRAGON QUEST III HD 2D > FINAL FANTASY 7 REMAKE
This is how you do a proper remake.
Especially considering it got more love than their baby (FF series) , I'd be happy with a smrpg and Chrono trigger remake like this
One of the best RPGs and games ever man, and the most influential RPG ever too. It deserves it.
I'm excited at the idea of playing DQ 3 with a fully orchestrated soundtrack
Despite other problems, the Switch and phone ports do use the orchestrated soundtrack.
For those people who are dissapointed with this style and wanted a full scale remake, I cant say I do not understand them as dq 3, remade to look like 11 would be gourgeous. However this HD 2D style is still amazing and I believe this game can make the series more likeable seeing how more and more people are getting interested with the series lately.
I prefer that they kept it 2D. I dont like that dq11 is 3D because its not as if there is more freedom with the amount of invisible walls
@@sn00k3_9 Thats true, and 2D games does have more interesting puzzles/dungeons than the 3D ones so I think the HD 2D style would most likely fit better with dq 3.
It's hard to be mad when it looks so gorgeous.
It's pretty much the ideal style for a Dragon Quest game
the sprites are very blurry
I expect a 3D Remake for DQ 3 down the line anyway still, because of its insane influence and its so popular. DQ 3 gets multiple remakes like other games all the time. Just like Pokemon Red, or FF games.
I really hope they remake DQ5 in this style eventually. Looks incredible
no, DQ V should be Remade using the DQ 7 3D Remake engine.
@@markplott4820 yes!!!
Yeah me too, but DQ I and II will be remade first they said. Which is a good thing since 1-3 are a trilogy, so them all made in this style first is a a good decision for newcomers long term.
@@Swampert444 Hopefully they bundle I and II together as a single title like they did on the Super Famicom. Both are great and massively influential games, but I don't believe either could stand on their own.
@@markplott4820 I.....disagree. It’s engine made it so enemies would just spawn on top of you and majority of enemies so large you had to fight them, given how tiny and boxed in the dungeons were, which was often unreasonable with how big they should have been. Got annoying real quick for me.
Hori said if DQ 3 HD-2D remake does well, they'd go back and give DQ 1 and 2 the same treatment...I hope they give 4, 5 and 6 the same treatment as well! And bring 7, 8 and 9 over as well! Get the whole series on the Switch!
“Like the great characters and writing”
*shows Ed The Talking Horse*
Genuinely cannot wait to see how expansive and vibrant the Desert of Isis will be, the Pyramid's architecture, the Fairy village, and the dimness of the eternal night in the "second part" of the game.
OMG YES!!! Personally I really want to see Portoga, being from Portugal and all (and we get almost no references in video games)... But yeah. And imagine flying over the world!!! That would be amazing!!!
can't wait to get my ass kicked in there again in HD2D
dude imagine what it's going to look like as your soaring through the skies on Lamia's back!
You don't need to remind me why it's so exciting, because it is my most anticipated game, thankyou sack
I honestly miss the enemy animations back from DQ3 on the SFC, so I'm really excited for the HD-2D Remake. I also agree with the point you made about the detail, most notably with the hero holding the lamp. I hope we can see this again with DQ1 & 2!
Really looking forward to see how they handle the Ortega battle. It would also be awesome if they could incorporate a party talk where the dialogue changes depending on what personality the party members have.
Speaking of, I remember that one of the guards in the Aliahan theone room would comment on your personality early in the GBC version (not sure about the others). If you're playing a female protag with the "lewd/vamp/sexy (depending on translation)" personality, he would even, quite literally, tell you to "control your urges" in front of the king.
I do hope there's more moments like that in the HD2D remake.
This game going to be hype af I just played dragon quest 3 and I'm ready to do it all over again
Same! Played the port that's on Switch. Will definitely be playing again and again and again in HD2D!
I'll never forget how difficult it was for me to beat Baramos. I spent about 4 days level grinding to get multiheal for my sage
Random fact: the GBC version is currently the only one where Ortega's Helmet protects against certain status effects.
Edit: double checked after replies, and specifically it protected against sleep and surround/dazzle, with some sources also claiming it gave 50% resistance to sap although I've only seen a handful of guides reference the third one.
I'm assuming it's something kinda spoilery.
Multiple actually.
@@paperluigi6132 No, it's just not stated outright in the game. Unknown until hacked, but not because it's a spoiler, but because DQ has a lot of hidden functions and features it never used to mention in the past. DQ8 was the first game to mention what every piece of equipment does, DQ11 the first to give absolute specifics.
@@ignasia7230 yeah, just couldn't remember them all off the top of my head, but I do remember one of them having been particularly annoying. The status effects that is.
@@lordnul1708 Yeah, they are. Luck does reduce status effects by a fair margin (only game that does this...I forget what it does in 4, but I have it in notes somewhere). I had to check my GBC FAQ, but Sap/Sleep/Surround. Though you can reduce Death with the Angel's Robe/Angelic Robe, and for the Hero specifically, the Crest/Token of Erdrick.
I need a dq9 remake with online multiplayer
edit: LOL THE ZOOM AT 4:20
As much as I would like dq9(even more than 3), dq3 is very similar in many mechanics so would probably be a risk to square enix to release a remake of 9 any time soon
@@Flamespotz idk, i feel like dq9 could be use to tread new ground for balance/creativity stuff. Especially since we live in the age of patching things out.
DQ 3 is one of the greatest RPGs and games ever made, so glad the Goat and most influential RPG is getting a remake. And paving the way for modern RPG remakes once again, just like back. Truly amazing stuff, love it.
Im very happy that III is being remade, however, i think games like 4, 5, and 6 need a remake as well. 1-3 has gotten a lot of references in modern games, so having references to the zinithian trilogy will give it more spotlight! I can only hope
4, 5, and 6 have already been remade.
@@OniLordMiki ik, but a switch remake
@@wi11ow8 they should port & localized the PS2 remake for the switch, ngl. That ver. was dope as hell
@@tartatovsky, oh yea! I forgot they did that. Wasn’t 5 like a chibi-ish version with 3ds graphics? Sucks we never got that lol
I think they should port the ds remake of 4,5 and 6 to the switch, so it can be easily accessible to buy given how practically rare it is to buy for the ds itself. I've been struggling to get them myself 🙁
Shut up and take my money
I just hope they'll have every content of the SFC version and will be even happier if they add the contents of the GBA version too.
Yesss... The GBA version's content really got the short end of the stick when it came to porting. The Pachisi (tnt) boards, the monster medals... And the GBA version is the only one that lets Ortega's helmet give status protection.
Didn't Horii let it slip in the interview that he's also thinking of remaking 1 and 2 if this does well?
Square Enix will probably Remake DQ I - II on one Cartridge in the Octopath Traveler style.
@@markplott4820 one cartridge is a very smart move given how short those two games are. But, maybe they could also sell them individually digitally, like they're doing with Danganronpa Decadence.
Its alot more effort than what square is doing with the 1-6 ff remakes and after besting the one on switch im super hyped to replay it with graphics ill actually like
Imagine Chrono trigger in this engine.
I can and I want it.
I mean, sure. But I would also love a remake of Chrono Trigger that looks like dragon quest 11.
@@pattyofurniture694 I'm not sure if that works for Chrono trigger. One, it's an old pixelated art style with a lot of charm. Second, people who played the original wants the game to look the same but at the same time better like the 2D art style.
God I hope not. I want full 3D remakes.
@@guruthosamarthruin4459 i don't, squeenix would 100% screw it up.
this is my favourite videogame of all time. i remember getting the GBC remake as a kid, i got as far as the Dharma Temple. i was young and mistakenly thought the game was similar to the more kiddie Dragon Quest Monsters 2.
t was several years later when i picked it up again and beat it in its finality. i still play it through every couple years. it's a masterpiece. and that soundtrack!
It better have Pachisi from the GBC version. Otherwise it's dead to me.
I love the "2D sprites in a 3D environment" style that seems to be getting more popular these days. It's a nice blend of retro and modern aesthetics.
Finally giving respect to the GOAT!!!! I can't wait for this masterpiece to come out, I know this is a overdone thing but just take my money Square!! Now people will get to see how great DQ III is over here just like Japan knows already and they'll finally put it up there as one of the best JRPGs ever made right up there with Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy VI, a game that influenced those games both. My favorite Dragon Quest game ever is getting the love and attention it finally deserves through all these years. I couldn't be happier.
Two years later and still no release date set. 😢
Now we need Final Fantasy 6 and Chrono Trigger in this HD 2D style.
Just wow. Cannot wait for this one. Hope it also releases on steam/pc!!
And more content!! A great time for both old and new dq fans!!
I personally was happy to get the Switch version, as it had been years since I played on GBC and it was nice being able to play a brighter version that can play on the TV too, but THIS is amazing and I can't wait. And honestly I'd be ok if they made some changes or expanded it in some ways since I've played it so many times before.
I'm really exited for this new remake of III, especially after recording a playthrough of III from switch. I actually like the switch version with its smoothed monster sprites. In my playthrough i tried to reinforce the story structure with my own voiced cutscenes to match those in VIII and XI. They also provide character development for my whole team. When i saw this remake reveal i was like: Well..... I'm doing it again! As soon as i get the game, i'll record its playthrough on my channel. What i want to see is all the added content missing from the mobile/switch version. I also want abilities to be added. They can vary by the class played. For example Priests can get Pearly Gates, Mages and Sages can use Magic Burst, Martial Artists get Multifists and Knuckle Sandwich and the Hero of course will get Gigaslash.
Words cannot describe the hype
I'm so excited for this its almost painful waiting for more info. I need a release date.
I'm so freaking pumped for this
I just finished it for the first time two days ago for the Switch. I was REALLY impressed by how big and well-done the story was ! This must have been legendary when it first came out.
The customization, world design, characters, and music are all top tier. It was a privilege to play and I look forward to the remake!
DQ3 was a 9.5/10 for me.
I only first played DQ3 (via the NES version) a few years ago, but it left such a huge impression on me that it seriously is in my personal running for one of the best games of all time.
will the game be released for Ps4 or Ps5? Or will we have the Dq9 classes introduced?
Does anyone know the name of the song at 3:10?
When does it come out?
I still wish the Final Fantasy Games at least the first 6 games got this level of remake treatment. I seriously hope one day Final Fantasy 5 and 6 get this treatment for a remake.
Tangent aside though I can't wait to pick up the HD 2D Remake of DQ3.
I want ff4 the most i think ff6 still looks pretty good
@@theninjararar The original, you mean? Because the remake looks atrocious (somehow even worse than FF5).
Now, I am always here for a new FF4 remake (especially if it's the complete collection), but it needs it less than the rest.
The gameboy color version was solid enough. I wish they remade the first two then this.
This and DQ12 are the best things to come out of the 35th anniversary.
recently beat DQ1, now playing Phantasy star 4 and i am probably going to play DQ2 or Final Fantasy 1 or 4 next, so hopefully when i am out of other games to play the remake is out
Definitely play DQ 2 before this 3 remake, its a trilogy and important to play in that order, trust me. Play FF 4 and 1 both after that since there both amazing games too.
I am definitely going to get it for whatever I have that it is released for. Hopefully Switch or PS4, but PC wouldn't be a deal breaker if it comes out late enough that it's for nothing else I own.
Dude can’t wait to play DQ3 HD 2-D remake.
I fell in love with Octopath Traveler 2, and made me appreciate the aesthetic.
I can’t wait to hear news about a release date. 🤓
I just hope they keep the music, they tend to change the songs. They also re-made the anime Adventures of DAI, but changed all the theme songs from dragon quest 3 in it.
Dragon Quest 1 was my first RPG, i was like 4 lol. I had no idea what it even was, just a memory of it for like 35 years. Then i discovered it again with FFXIV. Understood the name was changed here, and that was part of my disconnect for so long. Needless to say, i have a lot of catching up to do.
When will it be released?
One of my favorite things (that I'd all but forgotten until now) was the hero carrying a torch in caves to light the way in Dragon Quest 8. Cool to see him with a lamp in this remake of 3.
I’ve played this game so many times, it’s going to be amazing replaying it in this new art style!
My hope for the remake is that alot of the Story segments get more presentation and possible voice acting (if possible) so as a player i can immerse myself in the world more and feel a deeper connection with the main character as they go on their journey. I'd also like some optional party chat during INNs like in Secret of Mana remake. This way the extra party members can feel more like people then just tools to switch out now and then. This is just me when it comes to the Presentation and story. I just beat the switch port like a few days ago and while I had fun, it's mainly the presentation i'd like to see an improvement on.
Hopefully this comes out on switch cause I loved dq11 on the switch!😀
I don't know if you're after topic suggestions, but what about ranking DQ games per difficulty? I apreciate how this games aren't afraid os being HARD!
i've only played 11s so far and i've now beaten that game 3 times. i'm pretty hype for this one.
I don't mind the extra stuff not being in the Switch port.
I'm looking forward to this, of course, but the prospect of DQ12 being more "adult-oriented" has me wondering what they mean exactly.
Which system is this coming out for?
Didn't even know this was a thing. Will keep it in mind for the future.
I´m so so excited about this!!! Honestly, the only things I really want are the beautiful orchestral soundtrack and the bonus content from the GBC version, which I didn´t get to play with since I played the SFC version of the game. If I get those two things I am satisfied!! AAAH THE HYPE!!!
so, when is this coming out...been a while
Listening to you talk about dragon quest 3 instantly reminded me of some of my favourite aspects of octopath traveler, my favourite jrpg I've played. Super excited for this remake, it's my most anticipated game alongside Mario + Rabbids sparks of hope
I really hope as an OPTIONAL feature, they add in quest logs and map markers.
Sugiyama better let Square use the Orchestrated soundtrack for this remake otherwise I feel like a MIDI OST would hurt the experience a bit.
Another sack video, means I must click ASAP.
Ikr
If this becomes successful, I'm just hoping to see what Dragon Quest IV and V will look like if they ever remake it.
I want to know what they're doing with the soundtrack. Is it going to be rearranged? If so, by who? Are they putting the SNES ost in there for you to switch to?
My absolute dream scenario would be if Yasunori Nishiki (,Octopsth Traveler composer) gets to do his own rendition of the OST. But knowing how strict sugiyama is with his music, I don't exactly have high hopes for anything like that happening.
Here's hoping we at least get an orchestrated soundtrack.
I think it is very likely going to be the Tokyo Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra since the trailer had their name in the corner.
How are the levels balanced if you can play bosses in random order? Are all the bosses the same levels or do they change dynamically according to the player's level?
Pretty sure the difficulty levels for bosses are fixed according to area, though it's clear that some were meant to be done near the same level as each other for that point in the game's progression anyway. If you want to spend hours grinding until you're incredibly overleveled though, all power to ya because you'll likely feel overleveled if you grind passed the mid 20s for the first half of the game.
Could be wrong though.
Bosses are SET LEVELS and you can tell you are in a AREA EARLY if you find yourself OUTMATCHED by overworld Enemies . the FINAL boss is a SET LEVEL , but you may HAVE TO level to 99 in order to have any affect on him.
@@markplott4820 unless you use the orb during the battle, in which case you can get away with level 40ish.
Of course there is the possibility you're actually referring to postgame boss Xenlon, who you *definitely* want to be level 99 for.
I'm waiting for the release date of this game so bad
To be fair... We had DQ6 which made vocations BUSTED.
Which console?
I would be cool if they remake 1 - 6
I’ve been taking all the time in the world in my current playthrough of DQ III. Molding character skills and stats to my liking has just been too much fun. I’m afraid this game will force me into a sabbatical of sorts. 🤪😆
Anyone actually know if this game is still happening?
I can't wait to be Queen HD2D style
It’s funny how despite this one being announced first, the Live A Live remake ended up being the first HD-2D remake of a game to be released.
Does this mean if we get DQ one and two remastered would simple and awesome
Im ready to give this a try. This will be my first dragon quest game. Im really hoping FF6 gets this treatment.
Funny how he thinks the Switch version looks terrible considering that he praises it during the beginning of his lets play...
Sackchief- "It is based on the SNES version, and it looks great honestly".
I'm not really gonna hold my breath due to the game being a simultaneous release and not having it is series tradition in Japan, but I hope there's dual audio voice acting. Octopath Traveler had voice acting.
I'm excited for this remake. The original NES version was what got me into the series and I would love to see what they do with this. I do agree that Switch port is lacking overall, but I am glad they kept the quality of life improvements from the previous remakes(Having Thief as a class option as well Merchant and Gadabout growing MP is wonderful).
I am wondering if the personality system is still in play for remake(I imagine it should be).
I’m so excited for this HD remake, I couldn’t bring myself to play the “remake” on Switch that used the smoothed out sprites. It never meshed well with the backgrounds which were still pixelated it was an eyesore to look at. Never played Ocotopath Traveler but I love the art style in that game and it makes DQ3 look beautiful! Can’t wait for this to release as it’ll be my first time playing this game
I just hope that all the content cut from the Switch/mobile version makes it into this remake.
We need this for the mother series. I’m definitely copping this. Too bad Nintendo would never do it.
I am excited for new content. More classes and Pachisi boards. Even more bonus dungeons. A big thing that would be amazing is the Draconian settings from Dragon Quest 11 being in the Dragon Quest series moving forward. That would be amazing. Being able to play Dragon Quest 3 with 'Stronger Monsters' or being able to 'Only have 5 total player characters created,' or 'You cannot change a character's class at Alltrades Abbey.' Combining something like those 3 would be a completely different way to play the game.
Or after beating the game and doing post game and all the of the sidequests, maybe you could unlock the ability to play Dragon Quest 1 and 2. So you beat 3 and unlock 1 then beat 1 and unlock 2. 3 is a prequel so it is within the realm of reality, though I know it is extremely unlikely. But that would be incredible post-game content. The ability to play the entire trilogy with new balancing and these beautiful visuals and remastered audio.
Also, things like more equipment with more interesting and varied affects like %-based elemental damage reduction, strength or wisdom bonuses. Status ailment prevention, accessories better than personality altering ones. But most importantly, big things like Magical Might and Mending, to let spell casters keep up and giving physical classes skills, instead of just the 'attack command.' So, the Warrior could have things like the Spears skills like: Mercurial Thrust, Multithrust, Clean Sweep, Thunder Thrust and Lightning Thrust. Another class could have: Flame Slash, Lightning Blade, Vacuum Slash, Kacrackle Slash and the like to hit elemental weakness. Or another class could have things like: Miracle Slash, Falcon Slash, Dragon Slash, Metal Cut. And I could go on and on.
It's a HUGE shame that this game might have been significantly delayed. I want to play it so bad. I do hope it comes out this year. It already super sucks we aren't getting Dragon Quest 10 Offline Edition. I hope the developers stay safe and healthy.
To be honest I didn’t think that the switch port for dragon quest three looked terrible and I’ve also only recently started playing through numbers one and two on the switch. I will say that I do hope this comes out soon because even though I don’t think the switch port looks awful you’d be insane to say that this doesn’t look as good as the port.
DQ3 was actually my first experience into the franchise, and rather recently. I saw the trailer for hero on Smash and thought "Why have I never picked up a DQ game?" I grabbed it on the phone, and didn't get too far, but enjoyed it. I since have picked up a few more (mainly XI) and am loving them. Thanks for pointing out that this should be a better experience than on the phone, I'm now looking forward to it even more.
I hope that they will remake other Dragon Quests in this look, for example Dragon Quest IX, I just need a 60 FPS HD remake of this game because its my favourite out of the whole series (:
Thanks for sharing. Always appreciate DQ and the history with it. It’s the console RPG King!
Been excited question is when will it arrive to the west?
Four words: confirmed simultaneous worldwide release.
Dragon quest 1 and 2 are good games, but 3 was a big milestone
I can't wait to see your playthrough of this Mr. President
I'm really fricking excited for DQ3, but I really wish Square Enix would bring 4, 5 and 6 to Switch already.
Once DQ3 HD-2D remake can be pre-order I'm buying it, as addition would I like to see have to be new vocations even if we have to do sidequest for them I mean there so many new vocations since this game and with the obvious attention they did to this game having some new classes wouldn't hurt right
I’m only just finding out about this, but knowing it’s gonna have the Octopath Traveler engine has me excited.
I'm not into the 2D-HD remake at first, but now i'm glad they took this direction
The 2D Remake really HITS HOME. To the past vibes and so on.
Well, maybe DQ4 and 5 deserve 3D remake more
Can't wait to see it on PS4!
DQ III is NOT coming to the PS4 , ever .
however its possible you may get DQ 12 if its not a SWICH Console EXCLUSIVE.
@@markplott4820 I mean it is on ps4 in Japan. So maybe there is a chance
@@tyrone2423 - Why would SE release any older DQ I - III on the PS4 , the Graphics are NES 8 bit , even for the DQ III.
Looking forward to playing it for the first time. Also they seriously need to use this HD2D tech style with Chrono Trigger and FF6. That would be incredible, and they could literally just the original sprite work.
I still can't believe we're getting this
2:59 I saw that game it looks fun. I check that out.
I totally agree they should more content even give a side characters life like each class have a different dialog and also add some easter eggs.
kinda wish it was more 3D, but oh well. i also hope they keep the monster medal system from the GBC version. made it a bit of a grind, but it gave you something to do when leveling up other classes. i could do without the pachisi boards... unless there's a save state ability. wasted hours trying to play f'n pachisi.
i imagine it'll be out before XII, but since the video only shows events up until you break the wall east of aliahan, i sadly don't think it's close to being release yet.
Finally watching this.
Hell yeah, the remake deserves all the love.
We're getting the butter-smooth sprite animations that the newer versions lack, and everything is just better in general.
