Dragon Quest VIII 3DS Yangus Only playthrough Is it possible? Yes... but very hard and annoying much later in the game. The final boss before you unlock the post-game content you have to have everyone alive when facing Rhapthorne, but there is a creative way of doing the Yangus only challenge during that boss fight, which I'll get into that later. I played up to the point where you get the ship, then going to Princess Minnie's Castle. I then started a new game because I wanted to distribute my skill points differently. Here's the breakdown of my new playthrough.... VS Zaban

The apk has been updated. Without the new apk, it won't let you on. Use the Qooapp to get the update. Make sure you disable Qooapp after getting the necessary update because you don't want it running any other time because it will prevent your phone from sleeping. I just updated and it works fine for me now.

Use Vypr VPN by goldenfrog, it gives you a free 3 day trial at full speed. It has a PC and mobile app, and extremely easy to use. https://www.goldenfrog.com/vyprvpn For the Android app, once downloaded, it's as easy as finding your target country, click and connect, then enjoy.

I knew I was right. I just logged in to the game today on 4G without the VPN, and it let me in. But the weird thing is, that message you get when you can't connect to the game says nothing about being region locked or whatever, just to be around a better connection.

Alright, after several tests in the game, this is the scoop... The first time you load the game, you HAVE to have your VPN turned on when you click new game. After that, once you finish creating your character and have access to the map, exit out of the game completely, turn off your VPN. Open the game again, it should let you connect without it, if it doesn't completely exit the game and try again. It seems it only does a connection check every once in a while. I turned on the game without my VPN succesfully 5 times just now and have been playing it without it disconnecting on me for sure

I take that back, you do have to use it every time to enter the game, and that's it. Once you're in the game, you can disconnect your VPN and start playing. It hasn't disconnected me once after I turned it off.

I figured out that yes you do need a VPN, but only to get passed the part where you click new game. After you get to character creating, you can disconnect your VPN and play the game. After that, you don't need to use your VPN anymore. You can start up the game anytime without a VPN.

Even though it's region locked on the Japanese Google Play Store, the game itself is not region restricted. Once you have the apk, it'll let you download the game's data even in the US without a VPN. You can get the apk here: http://apkpure.com/%E6%98%9F%E3%81%AE%E3%83%89%E3%83%A9%E3%82%B4%E3%83%B3%E3%82%AF%E3%82%A8%E3%82%B9%E3%83%88/com.square_enix.hoshinodqjp How to set up Dragon Quest of the Stars. 1. Install the apk file. 2. Open the game. 3. Install the game data. 4. Once the game data is installed, turn on your VPN. 5. Start a new game. 6. Create your character, go thro

There is a 4 panel gag comic of DQVIII that just came out on the sony ebook store in Japan same day as the game, and other Japanese ebook stores. it's 124 pages long. I'm going to try to get it.

I'm still not that far yet, lol. Been busy with work.

The photo quests are fun. Just use google translate to translate those, it hasn't let me down yet. It gives you a general idea of what to do even though the translation isn't good.

Just to let you know, in order for the Slime Pudding to appear, you need to kill 30 slimes. It will appear south of Farebury (Trapetta) day or night. Also, don't forget to take photos of these monsters to complete their respective quests.

Same here. My copy and Cranberry's copy will come on Monday as well. (I bought hers because I really wanted her to play it) Walkthroughs are already showing up on YouTube thanks to Kouli30 and Hikaru Games

Volume 1 has been fixed. Apparently, some images from the first volume were missing, and some out of place images were in there, so I fixed them and re-uploaded.

I deleted it, but here's the video of it on YouTube. The only thing in the livestream that was worth keeping was the Dragon Quest of the Stars trailer, gameplay of Dragon Quest Builders, and gameplay of Dragon Quest XI. Everything else was just talk. The majority of the 1 hr 30 min livestream was just talking. (Beginning of video starts at 10 minute 06 seconds mark) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Kgmb_k3q5U

I recorded the livestream, however it seems like there's no need for me to upload it. I recorded it as a backup just in case no one else did.

I'm recording the Livestream now if anyone is interested in watching it later or couldn't cause of real life stuff. Will upload it later today. Dragon Quest Heroes II, and Dragon Quest Monsters Joker 3 was just talk. Just 1 gameplay image for Joker 3. So far just a trailer for Dragon Quest of the Stars, and gameplay of Builders. Also, apparently, DQXI will be for both PS4 and 3DS. PS4 graphics for XI is beautiful. 3DS graphics are way different. in the 3DS version, you can see 3D model world on top screen, and 16-bit on bottom screen. You can even switch between 16-bit and 3D mode

All the other DQVIII 3DS related stuff was already discussed on Siliconera like the part about Jahagaros.

SE will probably announce a winter 2016 release for VIII. VII will probably be released during Spring 2016.

I will buy both remakes in English when they come out. Square-Enix can have my money.

Update! Volume 1 is up. Volumes 2-5 will be up sometime this week.

V3 is getting an interesting update next month. http://www.famitsu.com/news/201506/11080087.html

I found a new interesting article about the new DQ8 port for the 3DS. It talks about the Seiyuu and their comments about their characters. http://www.famitsu.com/news/201506/11080194.html

Isn't some of the script in the 3DS release different? There have been some changes, such as the fairy guy that gives you hints about the puzzle pieces which wasn't in the original PS1 release.
