Is that a musou game with RPG elements?

The videos don't show much. But I sure hope it won't be a cash grab because I'm a fan.

Sort of yeah. According to people that played the preview builds it is wide open arenas with waves of enemies, there doesn't seem to be actual level design or progression within the levels themselves besides more waves of enemies and bosses.

I think it'd be more of an action rpg like the Ys & Tales series. We've already got Musou games in the DQ-verse via the Heroes spin-off series.

It’s made by Square Enix, you have your answer.
Let’s just hope it’s accidentally worth playing.

Should I assume this is just going to be a cash grab title with nothing really new except experiencing the story of Dai? It’s cool if that’s your thing but I’m not really interested if there’s no depth of gameplay. Can Square go back to making things I want to play?

Defitively not worth it (imo) if you don't like the source material because you will get bored watching cutscenes and fighting random monsters again and again, but gameplay/combat wise it should be at least "fun" and challenging for any Action RPG fan, I've seen recent anime game with worse combat system and game design. Perfect dodge & perfect guard, really hard boss in challenge mode (post game), cool Boss Pattern and customizable characters/team (costumes and skills).

Umm practically all Musou games have rpg elements so could have stopped after "musou game".heh

That description sounds like the DQ Heroes games

I remember when that name meant something, seems like Avengers was the start of the trouble

FFX-2 and Kingdom Hearts was the start of the trouble. Once Disney got involved its been all downhill.
