Mimas 182 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Square Enix has announced that they are planning on releasing Dragon Quest X in China this year. The official website is up but it only allows people to register their cellphone number for now to get more announcements. http://dq.sdo.com/web1/index.html There is a video out somewhere with Horii talking about it but I have not found that yet.

YangustheLegendaryBandit 3,617 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Man, they're never gonna release this outside Asian territories, are they? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PSO YASU 19 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 The video is at http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMTU3NTIwOTY0OA The server will be different from the JP server according to the past postings from the hiroba(http://hiroba.dqx.jp/sc/topics/detail/fde9264cf376fffe2ee4ddf4a988880d/).

redneckpride4ever 320 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Platty? Where are you? You know, the magic words? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
YangustheLegendaryBandit 3,617 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 I don't think Platty visits the X board much. (And as soon as I post this he'll probably show up.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Plattym3 2,488 Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I don't think Platty visits the X board much. (And as soon as I post this he'll probably show up.) Are you kidding? I read every message around here. Glad to see they finally clarified their "other countries" comment from like 3 years ago. Yep, we all guessed it, China. As for the US? Duh. It's not coming. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TheKingOfTheDragovians 305 Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 How hard is it to localize it for China? It's gotta be just as hard as localizing it for any other country right? Does Dragon Quest sell well in China? Maybe they'll do it for other regions? Nope, nope, nope, already fooled by that April post I won't get my hopes up. If for some reason it ever comes it comes, but if it doesn't it doesn't, oh well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RyuKisargi 683 Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Trust me you lot... even if it's in Engrish... We don't want a Chinese knockoff of DQXI. CENSORSHIP AHOY 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TheKingOfTheDragovians 305 Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 (edited) Wait is Nintendo localizing it? With how much they censor there localizations who knows what they'll do to it. Huh this would make a good topic. (Please don't take this seriously) Edited May 24, 2016 by TheKingOfTheDragovians Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RyuKisargi 683 Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 No, China in general has a hostile attitude to outside culture, at least Government wise. They'll gut DQX. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just ask Blizzard with world of warcraft on how chinese dealt with one of its expansions. Edited May 25, 2016 by sounderfan84 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RyuKisargi 683 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 This is -extremely likely- that it's some Chinese company paying a royal $#!&ton to SE to try to publish DQX there. Even if it's SE's IP, I can see them allowing it to be localized there if it's paid for. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SomaQz 28 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Ok so it only took months to localize DQX in China? http://2p.com/45519724_1/Dragon-Quest-X-Sells-10-Beta-Access-in-China-by-shaylynsun.htm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alexandrious 81 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 It only took that long? Did they had a lot of the work done beforehand upon announcement or they just rushed it out hard somehow? If they decided to localize it to the west and in at least 3 languages wouldn't it take at least 6 months? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dakarus 3 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I downloaded it but couldn't exactly figure out how to make an account sadly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have to assume they were working on it before they officially announced it because 5 months seems incredibly short for an mmorpg. I don't know how long it would take to translate to 3 languages. It depends on the manpower and how much time they put into it. Seeing that it took 5 months from official announcement to being playable is still very, very fast.
