I wish this had VR support.

We don't have a single turn-based RPG in VR yet and just making this discussion post to show that there's a thirst for one. If you agree, leave a comment.

(I'm NOT looking for arguments on whether or not you think turn based games don't belong in VR or whether or not you think VR is dead. I hate arguing and don't want any of that. This is a head count. Period. Just leave a comment if you support the idea or show you don't support it by not commenting.)

there is no "thirst" for one, VR does NOTHING to enhance the turn based combat.

I'm very active in VR groups and that's just your opinion. "The Well' for the Oculus Go is very popular and always recommended in people's top 4 lists. Same with augmented empire. Skyworld was a great turn based strategy game. Whenever a retro genre is suggested for VR, there are always naysayers, but they're always wrong.
VR is just another medium.
It's like saying turn based games don't belong in 3D.

I remember when people were actually saying that at one point. When N64 came out and we stopped seeing turn-based games really being made for Nintendo anymore at the time. Playstation sure proved them wrong.
One of the best eras of turn-based games ever came out then.

It doesn't make any sense.
Just because a new medium or whatever comes along doesn't mean fans of a genre go away. Saying that they don't belong in VR is in fact rooting for turn based games to become irrelevant in the future.

Besides. VR is about being able to experience being in the game. It's what VR adds to the game, not what the genre adds to VR.

I AM someone who is dying for a turn based game like this in VR so please don't be closed minded. I'm not looking for negative comments about it.
People can comment if they like the idea or just not comment if they don't.
Simple as that. No fighting that way ;)

Hmm i wonder, investing 100.000 dollar to make it VR compatible for, what 30 people? - OR save 100.000 and NOT implement it... damn hard choice here....oh wait.

VR is dead, simple.
Just because 100 something people like VR doesn't mean it is worth it.

let me guess, you are one of the few people who use VR and wants a100 hour + game to use it as well...

[tempestmichael]

A lot of people say turn based RPG's are dead.
How does that feel?
VR is not dead. Real VR like a PC that can handle an Oculus or VIve is just still too expensive because of GPU mining. A new generation of cards is coming though so things are continuosly depreciating.

Seriously, I don't appreciate trolling.
No one wants internet arguments.

The OP clearly asks people just to leave a comment in support if they like the idea of VR, not whether or not you think VR is dead or if you think turn based RPGs don't belong in it.
I am not arguing with anyone anymore.
Leave a comment if you aren't completely closed minded about this.
Otherwise, you can show you're against it by just not leaving a comment.
It's a count of heads,
that's it.

I don't want any internet nastiness.
Period.

turn based RPG in VR? Maybe, but honestly just thinking about it I don't see an upside. Turn based strategy exists but I think that only works because you're pretty much playing a board game a JRPG would only really look cooler but not really offer anything, not to mention the single player aspect? If it was active I could understand how VR could enhance but for turn based it would just be a little nicer being able to swivle your head and take in the view while the monsters just sit there. Meh....

I'll +1 it though just for the advancement of gaming in general

Okay think about this, if you think turn based is a niche market, what do you think turn based with VR would be?

think about it.

And so, while im all for it, I dont. I dont think its fun to spend 100 hour in a VR headset, and I think funding this project would hurt the game studio.

Ofc im for the option for it, like if its a first person jrpg/rpg that support VR- great!

the reason why I dont get the VR for dragon quest is... its like animated, and meant to be...I think running around in the world would feel a bit ...well maybe it works for kids?

Also you said turn based is dead?

DQ 11 sold 2 million copies in Japan alone. Persona 5 sold 2 million copies.
Games like Xcom and other SRPG always have an audience - final fantasy tactics, valkyria chronicles etc.

Great turn based games always have a market, prove me wrong otherwise.

He is just salty people disagree with him, and tries to flame the people who like turn based rpgs and try to convince them it is dead (while it clearly isn't) so he feels better about himself.

I am so bored of not having any turn based games in vr. Tastes in genres don't change because of VR. The idea that you have to meet a certain set of criteria to be in vr is bad for the whole industry. It just means people get left out. Now, turn based games were always really immersive and had really beautiful scenary. That alone debunks the idea that they have nothing to offer for vr. imagine soaring above the clouds in an airship for example.

I understand, but I wonder if a 100 hour vr game would work- also, as I said before- if you think there is a small market for turn based jrpgs, what do you think it would be if everyone is also forced to upgrade their pc and buy a VR headset?
I mean, thats like 95% of the market gone easily.
VR is def not going away, but I think you need to wait many more years before it will penetrate the mainstream market.

[Melfalik]

I would love to see this in vr.

[Character Name]

I agree - this would be quite cool in VR. I'd buy a second copy for VR.

[Haseo8]

While I think it would be interesting experiment and I would totally support it, I can’t really imagine how it would work. Would your view just shift from character to character when it’s their turn?

[zfan121]

Toriyama's artsyle is good but...there's nothing in this game convincing me that VR would be a worthy investment. Even 'first person' mode is nothing special and does nothing for you.

Would’ve liked the first person better if you can actually move and do stuff in it. I would have preferred they just kept the closer camera angle you could switch to.
