ErdrickSmasherVIII 6 Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 (edited) So. . . What features would you guys want to be added to a Potential Future Dragon Quest heroes Game; a Musuo Game akin to Dynasty Warriors, with similar Gameplay; but with many staples of the Dragon Quest Franchise & Characters from various games in the series like Terry & Jessica(who were in BOTH Dragon Quest Heroes 1 & 2) The main rules so far are for who will not get in as characters in this series of games as the games seem to follow: 1. No Incarnations of the Legendary Hero, or any of the heroes from 1-11(like Erdrick or the Luminary) 2. No Playable Villains(With the Sole Exception of Psaros, using the DQIV Remake Logic with a Different final boss that isn't Psaros) 3. No Generic Placeholder Characters, like the Cast of Dragon quest 1-3 or the completely Customizable party members of DQIX Me Personally I Want Playable Monster Characters that originate from Previous Dragon Quest Games like Lizzie from Dragon Quest VI, Or Saber from Dragon Quest V; and also Some playable characters to Represent the Most Recent Mainstream series of Games in the Dragon Quest Franchise; Dragon Quest Eleven; such as Serena & Veronica, Erik, Rab, Princess Jade, Spoiler Sir Hendrick and Sylvando; and maybe even some Party Members from Previous Dragon Quest Games that weren't included in Either of the first 2 Dragon Quest Heroes games; like Redd from Dragon Quest VIII, among others Edited October 15, 2019 by ErdrickSmasherVIII Link to post Share on other sites

Twinkie 284 Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 I actually enjoyed the multiplayer in DQH2. I would like to see that being expanded on to keep a playerbase that lasts longer then two weeks. I really don't mind on who gets added. But I would like to see Torneko and Yangus get added back in. I was actually a bit sad with the lack of Yangus in 2. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Brother Jaybird 540 Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Combination Attacks. More character interaction. Much more character interaction. The Carver-Maribel concept was amazing but it never went anywhere. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Much more character interaction. The Carver-Maribel concept was amazing but it never went anywhere. i Agree that WOULD Be amazing; though Combination Attacks are admittedly more of a Chrono Trigger Staple instead of a Dragon Quest one(though one other than myself COULD argue that Pep Powers from Dragon Quest XI are basically Combination Attacks or Chrono Trigger Double & Triple Techs) and yeah, I Agree; I'd Love to see more Cross-game Interactions; Like Say How The Other characters would react to Sylvando's VERY Effeminate nature, or Alena's Reaction to Jade also being a warrior Princess, How everyone else would react to Jade's Re-Vamp Curse; Everyone's Reactions to Lizzie being affectionate towards Terry; there's so much possibilities for how each character can react to other characters, like comparing & contrasting, reactionary humor about how Characters react to certain other characters Edited October 23, 2019 by ErdrickSmasherVIII 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Monsters being playable and up-gradable characters. Yeah. . . Well; I Bet if I were them and were trying to make A DQHIII; I'd Be Trying to figure out how to add Playable Monsters and still have it work with the mostly unchanged Gameplay mechanics that the Dragon Quest Heroes games have established. . . How to decide which Monsters get to be playable(aside from ones that are from Past Dragon Quest games like Lizzie & Saber), How to make playing as monsters work as actual party members, deciding what, if any, Monster Characters get to become Party members, and which species to use, and They'd have more experience & knowledge to figure these things out, Making Complex 3d Video games is Hard, and takes a Lot of People to make it work right, with as FEW Game-breaking Bugs as Possible, making sure the game ends up as Polished as it can possibly be!!

Stuner50 16 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 (edited) The monster recruiting thing seems stupid no offense, the heroes games are about bringing characters from older DQs in a new world in a hack-an-slash gameplay, if you want to recruit monsters there's the monsters games for that let's not add unecesary things, game needs to fix its flaws first let's not bloat it or it will turn into a shitshow. You're just forcing a monster recruitment system for the shake of it when the game is not about the monsters it's about the ARPG/Crossover aspects and the monster medals are all what it needs.

Yeah but some people feel like certain, "Heroes," in some of the games were monsters as well. Remember, the DQ franchise has a unique relationship with it's monsters since they don't always represent enemies and some titles have allowed monsters to become part of the team. That being said, I'm not super vested in the issue one way or the other, but I just figured I would throw that viewpoint out there. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Also Healix is a Heroic character, even though he's a Monster in Species. . . and there were Monsters who served as allies(aside from Healix) within DQH2. . . Link to post Share on other sites
Democrobot 1,019 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I'm still waiting for Debora to show up. We have the other two wives. Now give us the best. I also wouldn't mind some more representation for VI. Maybe just one or two more at max but something at least. Lizzie would be a good choice honestly. They already kinda explored the concept of using monsters in battle so why not take it a step further? One thing I really want them to do is a couch co-op multiplayer. I want to be able to play with my friends without having to use multiple consoles. This should be the norm between all versions. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I Agree; I'd LOVE to see Lizzie as a Party member; or even SABER the Sabrecat from Dragon Quest V. . . and I'd love to see them further the concept of playable monsters, than just leaving it at human party members using Monster Tokens to turn into them!!

I doubt we would see Saber. Bianca summons Purrcy (alt name for Saber) so I just don't see it happening. Not to mention Great Sabercats are a token as well. As for recruiting monsters as full party members, as cool as I think that would be I don't think it is a particularly feasible option. Link to post Share on other sites
Brother Jaybird 540 Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 It occurs to me that you could integrate monster recruitment mechanics into the Heroes series by opening the potential cast list to the Playable Characters from the Monsters series; maybe integrate the Tokens into unique attacks.

I mean; they COULD add Lizzie as a Playable Character; as well as Playable Monster Characters that make their debut in this game! Why should Healix be the ONLY Monster on the Protagonists' Side?! that's rather limiting; Especially When We could see Lizzie tearing through swarms of opponents on the Battlefield! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
