Dragon Quest > Final Fantasy
I'd say change my mind, but you simply actually can't.

Oh no.
Name every single character in this image and your opinion will be valid
Shin Megami Tensei
Dragon Quest is Final Fantasy but somehow even more bland.
I've never understood the appeal
Well you see, final fantasy is called fantasy, but in reality there isn't a whole hell of a lot of fantasy, just a whole lot of fucking edginess.
Meanwhile Dragon Quest has both Dragons, and an epic Quest, every character isn't overtly edgy to appeal to brooding preteens, and still feels like a fantasy filled world.
Saying you don't get the appeal of Dragon Quest would be like saying you don't get the appeal of a fantasy setting, or the appeal of dragon ball Z.
fantasy=/=medieval
There is plenty of fantasy in final fantasy.
But as you are talking about edginess, its clear you are just an idiot with deep-seated opinions
>an idiot with deep seated opinions
Final Fantasy's style is garish, tacky, and over the top in a bad way. It doesn't know what it wants to be and the setting only confirms that.
I look at this and I don't know where the appeal in any of this is.
I just don't.
its a lot more interesting than the same generic setting played out for the hundredth time.
Anything, even the retardedness of boy band bachelor party adventure, is better than generic medieval fantasy hero fights evil demon entity.
>same generic setting
Shoveling shit into your mouth just because you haven't tasted it before doesn't mean it isn't shit.
I don't want mid 2000s hot topic twink rejects as my fantasy setting characters. I don't want over the top hideous cars in my fantasy game.
It's disgusting, clashes, and looks way out of play.
It works in something like Chrono Trigger where they're explicity going to the future, and has a stylized look to the game, but the combined aesthetics of realism, mixed with brooding anime weeb twinks wearing makeup and shooting gunswords clashes in a way it's just not appealing.
They're just throwing in whatever thinks will appeal to their tasteless audience. It doesn't matter if it actually works together, or has a cohesive look. Just as long as it's edgy enough to appeal to their specialized snowflake personality.
It looks specifically like it caters to 45 year old obese chain smoking women who spent their 2000s in a private second life island
basing your entire opinion of a series off of 1 game is pretty silly, m8
Oh you're this kind of retard.
>Muhhh retard
lmfao, there isn't an art direction. It's just throw anything in that brooding edgy teens would like.
its fucking assinine. Someone thought all of this tethered together looked good lmfao
Not gonna take the bait fag
keep huffing that copium if you think that isn't how every final fantasy going forward will look to the end of time. Awful looking garbage.
Meanwhile Dragon Quest XI looked exactly how a modern dragon quest game should, had an amazing story, beautiful designed world, homage to the originals, something Final Fantasy has long since abandoned with the disgusting garbage they're pumped out since 7's evolution into a movie game.
Every new Dragon Quest is a labor of love to the fans of the series.
Every game being a carbon copy of each other is not “homage to the originals”
>Every game being a carbon copy of each other
HAAhahaAHAHAahAHAAAAAAAAAA
DQ is for real gamer boys, true and earnest, not poseur gays who like FF7 and beyond.
final fantasy is the same exact story over and over again with new names, and just different ways to play through the same story. again.
dragon warrior is the same mechanics over and over again with extra features, with stories that are wildly different every time and have meaningful impacts on how you play with the dragon warrior mechanics.
>with stories that are wildly different every time and have meaningful impacts on how you play with the dragon warrior mechanics.
Alright this was fun, but as my opponent is a genuine retard I must admit defeat. There is no point in arguing this with someone who is blind.
He's right though, and you really don't have an argument against why he isn't.
Which is why you're conceding.
sure, buddy. If winning this argument means that much to you, you got me!
Im not that guy, just pointing out you've never played multiple dragon quests if you believe that slop.
Well that is true to extent, I've only played three dragon quest titles. Playing anymore would be a waste of time.
I don't know about the series as a whole but FFX is better than any DQ game.
playing DQ makes me feel like a child again.
playing FF is just teen emo cringe now.
>playing DQ makes me feel like a child
I'm sure it does, anon. I'm sure it does.
Playing Dragon Quest makes me drowsy, no joke. I should play them before going to bed. I have have had trouble getting to sleep.
Dragon Quest has so many nothing characters. I will never understand how its popular in Japan.
>yawn based combat
>Game keeps what made people love it instead of bending the knee and putting in some shitty garbage button smasher combat that every other JRPG does that takes no skill
yeah, nah. It's actually a legit fucking shame that the next DQ is the one that'll finally move on from Turn-Based combat.
30 years of DQ fans being vocal about what they want, and the creators of the game actually loving what they put out instead of churning out whatever the suits think is most profitable.
Dragon Quest is the last example of videogames being a cultural icon, being a labor of love, creating something that was truly to be enjoyed. Something untainted by the retarded suits running square.
It might finally be time, but them keeping the turn based combat up until 2017 was based.
BASED DRAGON QUEST ENJOYER!!
9 was so comfy anon
