I won't admit that I was wrong, but … A year ago, Dragon Quest 11 debuted on PlayStation 4. Although I certainly liked it, I was not as keen on it as most people. This is a determined traditional outing that doesn't seem to offer much other great content (although it is so great that it is easily the most luxurious RPG I have ever played). Now, for the second time playing Dragon Quest 11 on Switch, I have adjusted my views slightly. Why is this so?
Dragon Quest 11 S Reviews
- Developer: Square Enix
- announcer: Square Enix / Nintendo
- Play platform: switch
- Availability: September 27th on Switch
Maybe part of the reason is the old-school fanaticism of Nintendo, and seeing "Dragon Quest" return to the position on Nintendo hardware. But I want to think that I am more professional than this. Of course, for this new version, a lot has changed, and the original version has been modified in all suitable places, and more content has been added. It seems that the basic principles of Dragon Quest 11 have not changed (they are far apart), but have been polished and polished to make it easier to understand their true meaning.
In fact, this Dragon Quest is all about tradition. Like the Enix series, but the essence of 11 seems to respect the 33-year-old brand's way of doing business. Dragon Quest 11 is set against the background of the energetic Ederian whimsical, and sees your dumb protagonist slowly awaken their fate to save the world. Dragon Quest expresses its mature old stuff in typical characters and dialogue styles (here in English, Japanese for the first time), and becomes active by citing the past of the series. Especially nodding on a game, and this new Switch version is free to distribute a lot of other content.
The opportunity to play set scenes from previous Dragon Quest games is an extension of the 2D mode. This version is also included in this Switch version. This mode is upgraded from the 3DS version, and the 3DS version itself is upgraded from Not localized in western regions. Entering the church in Dragon Quest 11 S, you can choose to switch modes (though it is worth mentioning that it is not seamless because you have been pulled back to the beginning of this chapter), yes, you can experience the adventure completely in 2D I like it because it shows that it is the basis of a firm traditional RPG, in addition to all glorious window decorations.
