GOATED

It just doesnt work.

This is a fun game. It's a great surprise to see that I can reach places like all trades abby without spending 60 hours in game. I personally would NEVER as an adult who wants to experience other games want to spend 100 hours + in a game. If you think its "Only 100 hours". Good for you, but if you like stream lined experiences with optional quest to make the game longer this is a great dragon quest experience.

I've played DQ 11 , DQ 1 - 2 , DQ 3, and now DQ 7 remake. In my opinion DQ games have a problem of feeling like they drag on. However a lot of DQ fans like that there is a point in which it feels like the game is supposed to end, and then it opens up to basically another half of the game. This is great, but the problem is that first half can already run you 60 hours. DQ has a simple & effective game loop, great designs, and A LOT of character.

If you are an RPG lover, and a modern gamer who doesn't want top spend 100+ hours on ONE game. Than a lot of the older titles are not for you. However this is a great way to get into the game if you want to experience DQ , and not have to ignore life.

good straightforward JRPG with tons of personality

not as bad as people are saying. It's a standard Assasins Creed with modern graphics. If you like parkour sure the older games had flexibility , but if you like the assassins part of it its not bad.

this is peak game of the year

This IS a SILENT HILL GAME. Is It a story of a young Japanese woman in the 60's ? Yes. Is that angle relatable to me ? no. That doesn't mean the psychological element isn't there. The horror aspect is still there, the creatures being a manifestation of one's psyche is still there. The largest and only different things are the location , and the other world. Very similar to Silent Hill 4. The game is amazing, and it should not be compared to Silent Hill 2 because its Silent Hill f.

I have not played this game in over half a year, and decided to download it again one day.
I have never been online, and have only ever attempted to download mods to make my Mechs look like Gundams.
I got back on the game to find out I have been banned for 180 days online.
I have never been online, and I dont even know when this ban happened because I have literally only played this game to chapter 3. When I emailed Bandai they tell me they will "get to it", but they have not given me any update nor have they told me when this happened.

surprisingly fire for an old remake and it looks great for the year 2002

THE PROBLEM IS THAT YOU HAVE TO CLOSE DOWN ONE OF YOUR SCREENS. I agree this game has crashes, and the fps is slow because it focuses your integrated card, and not your regular graphics card. IF YOU CLOSE ONE OF YOUR SCREENS OR GET A 1080p IT WILL LOAD. I swear to god if we never get another bleach game because people couldn't problem solve. We shouldn't have to do this, but this has fixed it for a few people I know.

1. Close your extra screen OR disable any monitor above 1080.
2. Make sure the game is launching on your graphics card and not your integrated.
