Hell, Yasunori Mitsuda got removed from the credits, probably out of the resentment SE had towards him when he left.
Huh? What are you talking about?

He's also credited in the NDS version.

I really don't appreciate the Horii doing 12/13ths of Chrono Trigger thing. Masato Kato and a lot of juniors in the project really disliked the seniority because of how they got credited. Hell, Yasunori Mitsuda got removed from the credits, probably out of the resentment SE had towards him when he left.

That isn't even satire. It's really not funny saying something wrong like four times just because you can speak Japanese. Or something.

Horii never gets any credit for his work on CT among western gamers, though, and that seemed like a response to that.

Learned something new today.

Yeah. For years, people have been boosting Kato as the "writer of Chrono Trigger" and Horii rarely gets mentioned by anybody. If people knew how involved he was with their "greatest RPG ever made," maybe they'd be more willing to actually try a Dragon Quest game.

Just realised that in the U.K., DQ and Spider-man don't come out on the same day! Anyone reckon they can finish DQ11 in three days? ;)

Steam started the preload! (I don't know why I always preload the games when I know that is slower than waiting for the first day, but I'm doing it anyway). I hope to see some PC impressions before the launch date.
You'll have to call a psychic then, because nobody gettin' their hands on it before release.

If you didn't sleep, eat or go to the toilet you could potentially do it.

Thankfully I'm waiting for a bit after launch to get Spiderman since I'll be buying used (got >£50 in CEX vouchers) so that won't be an issue for me. Having given up on Octopath and since Kiwami 2 should be done by then I should have a free enough palate for a massive JRPG like this.

I feel like this game would've done much better if it came out at a less busy time.


I went from 0% interest in this game to actually wanting to play it with all the reviews and impressions, but there are so many other games to play that I don't have time for a big JRPG right now.

Definitely would've grabbed this like last month when there was nothing to play.

I can see it. I can see more of an overlap of fans deciding between Octopath Traveler and DQXI, than overlap of DQXI/Tomb Raider/Spiderman fans.

A little salty they didn't release it this Tuesday or today, though. 3 day weekend!

I'll try! It was totally in jest obviously... I'll be grabbing DQ11 on PS4 at launch but probably renting Spider-Man later down the line. I'm definitely more of a DQ kind of guy than a Marvel guy.

All this hype makes me really wish I had the time to go back and properly play all of the other games in the franchise. I 100 percented DQVIII on the PS2 but my only other experience with the franchise was renting Dragon Warrior 1 on the NES 30 years ago and not getting very far. Maybe one day soon I'll back and play Dragon Warrior 1-3 on the NES at least if I ever find the time.

I think the closer you are to a fulfillment center the less likely you get things early since shipping time is so minimal. They'll send out games to people further away sooner so they arrive by the release date, which increases the chances of those people getting their games earlier.

Well the day's almost over and still nothing, so unless they somehow get it to me same-day on Tuesday, I doubt I'm getting it on release day. :(

I've never received anything from Amazon the same day they've shipped it.

The DQXI Legendary theme downloaded for me last night. Just need the preload of the actual game now to be set for Monday night.

I'm pretty sure they still wouldn't give it a try.

Any footage of this running on PC yet? Want to pick it up day one on Steam but really want to know the quality of the port first.

Well for both our sakes, I hope somebody can clear your question up regarding DQ 11, it would be an utter pain not to have full camera option in first person too
My English copy hopefully arrives tomorrow. But I can confirm that the Japanese version of DQ XI has the inverted Y option settings you need. I can't see them changing it. Cause I need that inverted Y too!

Im now more confident that they'll include it now. Thanks!

so people who have ordered from GMG, once they email you your code, do you have no way of preserving your 7 day refund option? there's no way to pre-order and like, avoid revealing the code until you want sorta like how humble does it?

... just a reminder that if someone in New York or another place that has it early wants to overnight a copy to me, I'll tack on a bonus. (._. )

I really want to preorder it on GMG for the discount but am worried about PC performance of the port, regardless of the requirements suggesting 60 FPS. I also have a PS4 Pro and saw the stuff about the grass and things getting blurry because of the checkerboarding.

But trophies and couch.

But 60 FPS.

I look like my avatar the more I think about it.

I suppose a JRPG isn't exactly the most requiring of higher frame rates.

This and the Yakuza Kiwami 2 thread have taught me not to order games I really want online any more.

Anyway, can we get an OT soon?

Got the same issue. Though, I can play on my 4KTV but I'm fearing a bad port. NNK2 was okish port, PC HDR saves it. But in that case...
