What am I missing out on if I only played vanilla version of Dragon Quest XI and not the S version? Does it add much in terms of story?
-
the sidestories where you play as erik, jade, sylvando, rab and what they did during the timeskip
the entire 2d mode and its 40 or so quests-
Damn, you sold me. How is it on ps4 being that its from the switch version?
-
Slightly but noticeable worse graphics, compared to OG release, but the new added stuff, symphonic soundtrack and QoL upgrades make up for it, not to mention its only 40 usd at full price.
I’d say its worth it.

-
theres some small scenarios inbetween acts 1 and 2, i really enjoyed them
rab’s is emotional and has whats probably my favorite boss fight in the franchise, really adds to his character
erik’s is, for lack of a better term, really REALLY hype -
A pretty huge side story involving visiting all past DQ games’ worlds. Marrying C___y.
-
I heard you can marry before I played the game and I was torn between mega milk femdom and bratty legal loli until I experienced the loss. I regret nothing.

Good lad.

Unpopular opinion, I honestly wished she kept her adult form.

she’ll age back into that, it’s the best of both worlds -

Correct.

You miss out on some QoL, the sidestories which are like two hours total, and the shittily implemented 2D mode. Also you miss out on the orchestrated OST.
On the other hand, the graphics are significantly better in the original
-
Give and take.
Fidelity is better in the original, but textures and lighting are better in S.
-
-
>Jade is clearly in love with the MC.
-
You could have Googled it.
I only played the S version and reading the comparison lists I found these the most important:
S has
1, Japanese and English voice over.
2, A shortcut menu for important things (it still doesn’t have zoom)
3, Proper (orchestrated) soundtrack
4, Various options to make the game hard
5, You can play through the ENTIRE game in classic 16 bit mode
6, Extra story bits for your companions
7, An extra segment where you can visit past Dragon Quest worlds (only in 2D – available in 3D mode too)
8, Battle Speed settings / Help with hidden treasures / Photo mode (shit)
9, You can see your companions while exploring ingame and chat with them
10, You can craft anywhere and buy ingredients anywhere. This fucking huge, saves TONS of busywork and enables you to forge high level stuff right away in the middle of exploring.
11, You can equip outfits regardless of actual equipment, so you can lewd the girls without any drawback
12, Call the horse anywhere, you can buy a cheat item for the horse races if you don’t want to get minigame cancer
13, Extra mounts, extra outfits
14, New trials and missions
15, You can marry a bunch of characters instead of one.
To be honest the original version is missing so much I probably would have had a very low opinion about it if I played that. Instead I absolutely loved the S.-
All this or an orchestral soundtrack with some higher quality textures. Dragon Quest XI S is a million times better in terms of story content and quality of life improvements alone.

I just recently realized the scene where you fight Jasper’s ghost as Hendrik in Act 3 wasn’t in the original and was added in XIS.
Which is insane since that scene is amazing at closing out their story and I can’t imagine not having it.-
They added a fuckton of shit to Act 3
-
Kinda like Angelo coming to help in that last part of DQVIII in the 3DS version whereas in the original you apparently never see him again after the situation at the holy temple
-
-
You can’t marry Jade.
-
I’ll never play the shitty ugly switch version.
-
You get to be a heart breaker Chad and still have sex
-
Why would anyone do this?
-
>treat them like garbage to the point where they are on the verge of tears but still acts slightly pleasant to keep them hooked on to you
Just like real life. Why are women so masochistic?-
Because they are evil
-
I’d feel dirty though
Just follow story for a bit if your party is underleveled compared to you.
They said they’ll train, maybe that should help

Do you get to treat Veronica this way?

You’re her bitch.

Only the Darkspawn would treat a proper woman so poorly. He truly is the Shadow lord in disguise, I tell you!
-
but that’s my wife, anon. I wouldn’t marry my stepsister or a physical child.
-
-
I feel sorry for anybody who bought the vanilla version. So much QoL shit that vanilla players never got to enjoy.
-
>QoL shit
I’m not an ADHD zoomer so I don’t care.-
These aren’t small things that they added, some shit outright affects story and gameplay. Also zoomers HATE jrpgs. They just pretend to like Persona 5 because they want to fit in on social media websites.
-
They liked jrpgs with social links/romance because they’re literally not having sex. That’s why fire emblem and persona are the only thing selling.
-
Zoomers who like Persona 5 would probably like any other JRPG if they weren’t playing only what generates the most memes
-
Reminder DQ is just as casual as Persona.
You’re not better than them.-
No shit, all Jrpgs are casual, at most they require light use of tactics that can 90% of the time be overcomed by bruteforcing, use of broken strats and retarded amounts of grinding.
-
-
All of 11s’ additions are 10 dollar DLC tier sold for the price of a new game while making the graphics worse. There’s nothing wrong with the original 11.
-

Nothing that outweighs how downgraded the visuals were. Seeing the wheat fields of Zwaardsrust in the "definitive" edition was just sad, absolutely visually destroyed.
-
>he cares more about wheat than gameplay
literally cattle-
The gameplay is the exact same though, try thinking before you speak.
-
This is literally not true lmao. S adds loads of features that completely changes how you play if you use them.
Show us your huge milky tits already, cow.-
>S adds loads of features that completely changes how you play if you use them.
No it doesn’t, unless you’re talking about the shitty 2D mode or the ADHD zoomer fast-foward button.-
Draconian settings, new items, War Drum (let anyone buff attack), God Bird Staff (make Rab a BAMF), Jade becomes a completely different type of attacker with her new equipment, two new superbosses, New Game+ that is essentially chapter select, among other shit.
Show. Us. Your. Tits.-
>Draconian settings
Super strong monsters is the only important setting, and is in the original
>new items
Must be really impactful if you aren’t even naming them
>War Drum (let anyone buff attack)
Homogenization is not a good thing
>God Bird Staff (make Rab a BAMF)
Homogenization is not a good thing
>Jade becomes a completely different type of attacker with her new equipment
Homogenization is not a good thing
>two new superbosses
Don’t care, the base game already pushes the combat system to the limit when played on hard mode
>New Game+ that is essentially chapter select
Why would I ever want to do this?So no worthwhile gameplay differences whatsoever, in exchange for downgrading to Switch-tier graphics.

Massive fucking cope post, rofl!
Keep on seething!-

Level to 99 quick with a metal slime farm guide.

I’ll never buy a DQ game again. Solely because of the garden gnome business practise they did. How you sell me a game and then not even long after make a "definitive" version and offer no discount to get it for OG players and try force me to buy it all over again while delisting the original.
Games good but Square can suck my dick.-
The game was already half price at launch compared to the original. The discount was baked into the price.
-
Seriously? They didn’t let you upgrade for free? Fucks sake, didn’t know about that because I only played the S version
-
I don’t know why you bought it day one on PS$/PC really. They already talked about how they were doing a Switch version months and even years before the release of the main game and it would come later.
For that same reason, you wait for the late release as they would add more stuff or make it at least more complete that the day one base game. -
Come and play on Xbox. If we get something it is always the definitive edition because nobody cares about the platform for the first time. Also high chance it launch in Game Pass like DQ.
-
xbox is the patient gamer’s best friend, yeah
I pretty much don’t care about game hype anymore because everything has a better and cheaper rerelease after a year
-
-
-
Wait, isn’t the Tockle village only in the definitive version? And people still argue that the vanilla is better? Really?
-
Because no one cares about the 2D content
-
It’s 2D but it’s still good especially when you played some DQ games before. Lots of neat references and locations from the previous games
-
True fans do.
You know, the people autistic enough to keep buying these games to see a little fanservice for them is like nutting high on drugs-
I wish that were me…
-
Anon that’s your sister, and also technically you in your past life.
-
-
The 2D mode is pretty barebones unfortunately, it doesnt even have moving sprites in battle. Like the SNES remake of DQ3 claps 11s 2D
-
-
-
It’s just bitter tards seething because they feel entitled to something they haven’t paid for. Ignore them.

-
>lots of QoL improvements and new content
>can play on the go or in your bed
>the graphics are shit compared to the original
Graphical downgrade of DQXI is nothing compared to pic related-
Why can’t they put this on the switch?
-
Switch can’t even handle 3DS graphics
-
Fuck if I know, imagine DQ8 on the Switch with the original graphics and all the content from the 3DS port
-
That would require effort
-
-
>QoL improvements and new content
All worthless. If you didn’t play the PS2 version, you didn’t truly experience the game. The visual downgrade isn’t even the worst thing about the 3DS version of 8, it’s the massively reduced difficulty.-
Imagine caring about "le hard difficulty" in Dragon Quest. You are impressing exactly 0 people with your posturing.
-
If the game doesn’t present a challenge, it destroys all sense of danger and peril in the story. Difficulty is necessary, sorry if that upsets you.
-
-
The fuck are you even talking about? The bosses are harder in the 3DS version and Memory Lane makes Dragovian trials look like a joke
>you can actually see metal slimes now so you can grind way faster and that’s reduced difficulty
More like reduced tedium-
>The bosses are harder in the 3DS version
No they aren’t
>Memory Lane
No one cares about lazy asset re-use content-
>No they aren’t
Yes, yes they are. But you haven’t played either version anyway since we are on Ganker and you people just prefer to shit on each other instead of actually playing video games so who cares-
>Yes, yes they are
No, they aren’t.-
I dunno what it is, but when people go "nuh uh" it immediately gives me a boner and makes me want to rape them (consentually of course). Maybe I’m just really into powerbottom brats…
-
No, I’m serious, they are harder. I’m not saying that the 3DS version is better, just stating the facts. They deal more damage and have more HP compared to the original
-
>They deal more damage and have more HP compared to the original
This is false
-
-
-
-
-
-
How? The original game wasn’t even hard. Did they make it a walking sim?
-
-
Don’t forget the censorship of several outfits for Jessica.
-
-
Martina’s martinas make me crazy
-
I’m not giving a single cent to this game until that racist composer is six feet below the ground
-
Better open up that wallet then cuz he’s been dead for a week now.
-
So what platform are you gonna buy it on?
-
This, fuck that nazi motherfucker. Hopefully he dies soon
-
>anon finally buys it
>earth starts shaking
>cheap MIDI trumpets thunder from the heavens
>sugiyama’s corpse rises fromhis grave
>he looks like a DQ zombie -
He already recorded the soundtrack for DQXII before passing on btw.
