That's hard to say. It's really a matter of what you're looking for.
DQXI is very, very traditional. If you didn't like NNK2, I'm not sure you'd like DQXI.

for someone who played and was let down by Ni No Kuni 2, would you say DQ11 is a better game to scratch my RPG itch? never played the other games, but very tempted to give this one a try after i plow through spiderman later this month

It's basically a full time job. Not for the time-constrained.

I want to play this so bad but I have no way to play a 100 hour game I work 65-70 hours a week 😭

I've never played a Dragon Quest. This one is coming out to PC, so i will have to check it out.

As a long time Dragon Quest fan, I'm happy to see this game getting stellar reviews. Suck me in for 100hrs please!

Thank you!
If you reduce CLS content to four or five hours a week, only a small fraction (maybe 10 or 15 minutes) is scripted. So you're in luck!

I love all your videos, but there’s something about your unscripted stuff that is my favorite content ie. Podcasts, let’s plays etc. I like to hear you off the cuff

The pacing is good. I had no issues there.

So I know DQ is typically a long game, and I'm not worried about that. What I am curious about is if it falls into a problem I've noticed that JRPG makers seem reluctant to evolve from, and that is the slow start. Example Xenoblade chronicles 2 started out so slow I actually stopped playing the game completely. -- So how do you feel about the pacing of the beginning of the game and is the game well paced so far? -- I love JRPGs and I've been wanting a good one to get into, but I feel like they need to evolve on the slow beginnings.

It's a huge game, and it's honestly perfect for a long break or a lull in games. I wouldn't necessarily play it this year. But, hell, next summer? It's a great game to sink time into.

I have heard so much about this game, both you and several of the Easy Allies guys are hotly anticipating it, but your in depth look here told me what I need to know. I think it looks great, graphically, and while I am intrigued, there's just too much to catch up on/too much on the horizon for me to give this a shot. Maybe somewhere down the line. Thanks for the detailed look, Colin. Also, with two unscripted SQs in a row, can we expect a return to the usual format next time out? I enjoy them all, just wondering!

I've only played DQV and IX, I'm looking forward to this!

I love your let’s plays because you actually explain the game instead of yelling or forcing stupid shit to try and be funny. I’m very ready for this game, can’t wait to get to grinding those levels. Hope you’re well and having a good day Colin!

Like an Active battle system in the options? Where you dont select attacks? Was I imagining this watching another Square video?

Awesome. Can’t wait to check it out this afternoon!

Kinda. Only played for 15 hours, so wouldn't be fair for me to render a verdict.
