is the game a full MMO
OR
a game's online be like White Knight Chronicles
where you can go online and do quests
It's not a full MMO, you can beat the game without ever playing online.

It's not like you're forced to play this game, go back to other DQ games if you want the same old stuff.

Why does Square Enix need to rehash the same things over and over again? Everything has to change.

The next DQ game won't be an MMO so just skip this game.

Lol, people cry about Final Fantasy not changing enough (even though it has) and when significant change does happen (FFXIII) they cry even more.

I think it's good for Dragon Quest to FINALLY have some type of significant change over all these games, but I never understood why people want to put all these "online" games on the Wii (see: Monster Hunter Tri). I can see the WiiU so Square Enix can be like "YO LOOK AT THIS NEW ONLINE SYSTEM IT'S ACTUALLY GOOD!" but why even bother with the Wii? I have a feeling that forcing a Wii release alongside a WiiU release will really gimp things for it.

Not like I was interested it anyway, I tried playing DQIX for an hour and was bored out of my skull.

EDIT: Oh yeah, I also hate this terrible art design. At least Final Fantasy seems to change art designs as it progresses.

Why the hell did SE remove the youtube videos? Why?
What sense does that make, that I can't judge the game info they've released?

From what I've read it's my worst hope realised, same Dragon Quest IX crap all over again, MMO-like, no actual characters and quests out of the ass.

No doubt I'll be skipping this title, it's gonna have none of the charm of Dragon Quest VIII did, and judging from the screen on page 2, the graphics have managed to be worse.

Usually means investors are pulling out. I don't remember if it happened with the 3DS but it happened with the WiiU announcement.

People (in Japan, at least) will still buy Dragon Quest a bagillion times, even if it is a pseudo-MMO. People were iffy on FFXIII (some hate it with a passion) but it still sold a bagillion copies.

Well, I'm interested. Especially since it's cross-platform between the Wii and WiiU.

Not sure if I'll be buying it at launch, though.

It wouldn't be unwise to say that investors just dropped Square Enix because one of their biggest franchises is showing signs of losing a vast amount of appeal, with such an announcement.

Well I'll buy this on Wii U IF it has no fee outside of japan.
And I should be able to play with my brother even if he's playing on Wii, right?

Guys seriously, just wait until XI if you don't like it. And seriously, stop bawwing, this is the tenth game, there's no reason you should be unhappy because the tenth game in the series is not to your tastes, if you don't like it play one of the earlier ones. Seriously, I bet most of you guys are going to buy it anyway.

But I still love you Akira Toriyama.

No offense but this whole "Just play older games" thing is a lame excuse. People want a new game to play and want it to be good, when it looks bad then it's disappointing. Plus, who wants to replay the same RPG where they already know all the tricks and storyline?

If a new Ace Attorney game came out (since you're a big Ace Attorney fan) and it looked like it sucked complete ass, I think you'd feel pretty agitated it someone told you to shut up if you don't like how the new game looks and go back to playing old Ace Attorney games.

Well that'd be one thing, but there are 10 other titles, many of which have been remade, that one can play, not to mention the side games. Now let's say you've played them all, well as I said, it's the 10th game in a series that hasn't changed much after each iteration, yet when they try something new and original people baw about it. 10 games is a lot, I really think you should be satisfied with the nine games you already have instead of getting sad over would be milk.

EDIT: I'm not saying they shouldn't be disappointed (though I did say that, wrong choice of words), but that they should quit the complaining for a game that was just and that they're probably only complaining about because it's not like the others rather than because it genuinely looks bad.

Every dedicated Dragon Quest fan has probably played them all already and the remakes offer little more than graphical overhauls.

It may be a silly reason to "baww" but saying that they should just play older games is a silly thing to say. Telling people to just replay games they've already played instead of demanding the new game live up to their standards is just retarded.

Replaying the games really wasn't the point of my post, that was just a small part of it. My point is people are...

EDIT: Though I can see why they are disappointed, I'd be pissed if when Square was making FFIV they made some Platformer instead, but I'd still at least give it a chance before pissed all over it (so to speak).

I must've gotten the wrong impression when you said people should just play the earlier games if they don't like this one:

I think Square already did that, it's called FFXI and FFXIV

    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)

    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
