@JaxonH I didn't do the first world. I just left after hearing out the king or whatever. I found another one of these little ghosts a ways on in the Gallopolis region, but I can't seem to interact with it, so I'm guessing it's not one of the ones I need.
I found one with a password somewhere in the desert, and it was red. So I assume that makes them easier to tell apart from the regular decorative guys.
Edit: ironically I ended up binge playing Dragon Quest 1 all day and completed that. It's a quite enjoyable little game! Basically "open world" in it's design, and the world is small enough so it's not too bad going back and forth across the continent as you explore and find clues.
Interestingly, after the final boss you're completely free to roam the now monster-free land and talk to everyone to hear how they much they all love you now, I was fully expecting it to just end.
The automatic quick saves made it fairly easy to beat. In total it took about 7 hours from start to finish- that’s the same amount of time it took me to finish the XI demo!

Think I’ve seen them on Amazon. The figures, I mean. If that’s what you’re referring to.

Why is X even mentioned in the topic title? Apart from the OP's agenda, why? We need to have a topic to talk about XI-S as it's a thing on the Switch now.
The horse racing in this game is super fun! This whole game is super fun!
I’m so glad I went all in on the Slime Controller and DQ system and tat... I’m loving this game so much- it’s one that’s already near and dear to my heart. Like Xenoblade Chronicles was. Only... moreso. Which is really saying something, because I love all the Xenoblade Chronicles games.
You know what it really is? I just love me a good JRPG. It’s my favorite genre of game, by far. Which is crazy because in 2013 I had never played a turn based game in my life. Fire Emblem Awakening, which led to Final Fantasy X, changed all that. Now, it’s all I ever want to play. It’s just a shame there’s so few A-tier JRPGs in the market. Even Tales, I would consider B-tier. And I like Tales. But it’s just... never quite “on the level”, I guess. Xenoblade Chronicles, Dragon Quest, Final Fantasy... that’s pretty much all that’s left. Though Trials of Mana looks A-tier and then some. I am more excited for that game than the Final Fantasy Remake, though perhaps not quite as much as Xenoblade Chronicles HD. Either way, they all look great.

Yeah you might as well remove DQX from the thread title! That was included originally based on mere speculation. Doesn't look like we're getting it though.
If they do anything else, I bet it'll be a HD port of DQ8, given that they release that on everything!
Considering the physical release for 1+2+3 is near the top of the best seller list for Play-Asia and Shop4, I think it's fair to assume well get a physical release for 4+5+6 not long afterwards.

I missed them saying anything about IV, V & VI, @Magician .... Still not too bothered, as I played them on my phone, though Can't get VII on it, so if that's coming, I'll get it & IX, too, please!
I'm about 12-13 hours into DQXI at this point and I am having a darn good time. But I am not gonna lie, the silent protagonist really holds the game back for me. It doesn't feel like the Luminary is supposed to be an avatar for the player - you can't even choose male or female - and yet they never speak, aside from "character name explained XYZ to so-and-so" off screen.
Even Byleth in FE3H, who actually IS meant to be an avatar for the player, feels like they have more personality. Yet the Luminary in DQXI just stands there almost as bad as the protagonist in Pokemon S/M... Although at least they don't have him constantly smiling in every scene. But he just goes along with everyone around him without conversation and it feels unnatural.
Complaining aside, I'm enjoyed everything else so far. I love the classic well polished JRPG gameplay and the monster design has grown on me very quickly! The rest of the party that I have met so far seems simple but likable.
The story has been mixed so far, the fake out with the MC's home town was surprising and surprisingly dark! I can't imagine speaking to my mother and her not recognizing me, it would be terrifying! On the other hand, the story with the Prince of that sand kingdom I literally predicted almost perfectly almost immediately upon hearing about the Prince and the horse race...
Yeah I agree. If you're gonna have a silent protagonist, you should have a character customisation. Or just don't have a silent protagonist preferably!
Well, we have a silent protagonist that looks just confused most of the time, vs voiced characters that have the emoting skills of a plank with a face drawn on.
