Update on Dragon Quest 11 Definitive Edition

This is a long game, with a lot more to it than I initially thought. I’ve put in 150 hours, which was enough for me to finish all of the story content, including post-game plus all of the side quests except one. And there’s still several more things that I want to do.

This is a very traditional RPG with streamlined mechanics that make it accessible, but also enough depth for you to be able to tinker if you want to. I’d say it’s a great game to get your kids into RPGs if not for how weirdly sexualized some characters are at times. Setting aside the age appropriateness, there is one story beat that’s particularly icky.

The cel shaded art style is really vibrant, and the characters were designed by Akira Toriyama (creator of Dragon Ball Z), which gives the game a very recognizable look.

Overall this is one of the stronger third party titles on the Switch. It’s also a great choice for mobile gaming because a small screen doesn’t really detract from the game.

If you enjoyed RPGs from the NES or SNES era, you’ll probably get a kick out of this.

GOW Ragnarok came out with a free DLC and it’s pretty fun. I chose the hardest difficulty and it’s kicking my ass / a huge grind, but still fun.

Jesus you must like a challenge. I did the default difficulty and felt like I probably could have done the 3rd difficulty level but the mastery difficulty level seems absurd lol. Anyway I got the credits to roll after about 6ish hrs of play. Had a great time. The combat is so damn diverse and satisfying if you learn all the moves.

I liked it alot

I forgot about HellBlade. That game really struck a chord with me at the time I played it.

What a year for gaming. Here’s what I played in 2023:
Witcher 3
The Last of Us
It Takes Two
Portal
Tears of the Kingdom
Pikmin 4
GTA V
Baldur’s Gate 3
Dragon Quest 11
Super Mario Bros. Wonder
Spider-Man 2

I rolled credits on all of these except Pikmin 4 (and I also played a bit of Portal 2, which I plan to come back to eventually).

On deck for next year are Monster Hunter: Rise and the PS4 version of the Mass Effect trilogy.

Last of Us Part 2 remaster comes out in a couple weeks, I’m biased (have like 300 hours in the game) but I’d put that at the top of my list if you enjoyed the first one.
