Dragon Quest Swords: The Masked Queen and the Tower of Mirrors (Wii) > Opinions (79)

goldmario79 posted 10/11/2016, 05:50
It lasts about 12 hours... but by the time I was done my arm was literally ready to fall off and / or I was willing to cut it off with a blunt axe due to the motions are not all that accurate. A decent beginner RPG if you dont mind all the arm flailing to beat it.

Yeah, this is a pretty decent game. It was really fun to play, looked pretty good and I really like those characters more than the ones in Final Fantasy.

I wonder what Square-Enix's expectations for this game in America were. I hope this doesn't turn them off from bringing more games out on the Wii. The Wii is seriously lacking in RPGs after all.

Sales would remain exactly the same as they are now if that is absolutely true, if not worse.

I know DQS is at 530k in Japan though. Right below MGS4 as best selling 3rd party console game this "gen".

The game has shipped

As of September 30. It looks like America is severely overtracked.

Are you kidding? The Dragon Quest name has NO value outside Japan.

Even so, the RPG genre is very unpopular in Europe. Even Final Fantasy 12 couldn't sell 1 million.

The paths through areas are linear, with branching parts where you can take different routes on in most areas. You can use the d-pad to look left and right in these areas, move forward, or move backwards. In town, you have more or less full control of your movement via the d-pad, in first-person perspective.

from what i can gather, you have a bit of control(using the d-pad), but some times (or maybe most of the time, not sure) its on rails.

Gameplay is quite interesting but very short game. I bought it first day it released in HK for HK$395. It didn't worth this price. It's now around HK$200 for a new one~ I highly recommend to wait until price drops.

Actually clmlb, the idea for this game was from a stand alone dragon quest slasher game that was played with a sword that could kind of read your slashing movements.

They didn't take a deep franchise and strip it of all it's intricacies, but infact took a very shallow game and upped the depth, production values, graphics, sound, difficulty, length and any other aspect you can think of.

I'm with ckmlb on this one, I'm not even a big fan of the regular DQ games and this one sounds like a bore. A gimmick cash in on the Wii-mote probably. Will probably rent it when it comes out.
Message | Report
ckmlb posted 23/07/2007, 02:11
So they took a turn based RPG and turned it into a linear Wii mote slashing game... great work SE. Why not just put the actual DQ on a console?

I expect disappointments from this.
