Topic: Dragon Quest Wars Impressions

I guess I'll start this. lol

I think the graphics are actually pretty decent for the game, and the music is fun but nothing memorable.

The game, to me, is actually pretty hard. lol It's like a glorified rock/paper/scissors. It's actually really well executed.
I lost a couple times in the tutorials however. lol I SUCK.

Controls are easy enough to get a handle for.

Haven't tried Wifi Multiplayer yet, no one was one to play, but it's nice that there's even online to begin with.

I'd personally give it an 8.5/10 or a 9. I dunno. lol

There could've been more monsters and locations, but it's 500 points. You get what you pay for.
Definitely one of the better DSiWare games.

Agreed. I think this was worth the $5.

I'm getting it now, I can't wait!

These games just don't work for me anymore. Tactical, RTS, all games involving moving tiny units all over the place. What happened? I'm supposed to be enjoying this game...and I'm just not

Not that there's anything wrong with it. It's just another Fire Emblem...and those games do very little for me. It's great for what it is (I think) and very affordable.

I'm getting it now. I'll let you guys know what I think. I've never played a DQ game before but I'm big on Strategy games (and board games).

If I had a DSi, I would most likely be getting this. This is not your typical Dragon Quest game so I'm not sure what to expect from it. It is developed by Intelligent Systems which is a very good thing. I suppose I'll just wait for the review and more impressions on it before I decide to run out and buy a DSi.

Anyone want to try an online match with me?

How is it?

I wish I didn't buy either pop plus or box life, now I dont have any points :C

I love it so far! I'm playing an online match right now with 3 other players. I got through like 5 of the Training Missions so far and I'm getting the hang of the different characters. If there's anything you wanna know about it let me know as I'll definitely be playing for a good while.

Do you think it's worth it for newcomers to strategy games and DQ? I'm strongly considering it since it has Wi-Fi.
EDIT: Also, how many blocks does it take up? Sorry for bothering you.

Well I've never played a DQ game before and I'm loving this. Maybe it's also due to the fact that I love strategy games as well. And yes, undoubtedly worth it for only 500 Points. Great quality and Wi-fi for such a good price. I would've gladly paid 800 for this. I'm going to try taking a video of it in action. It'll be hard but I'll try.

Thanks for the info. I might get it later today.

No bother at all. It's 85 blocks.

how many monsters?

There's 6, unless there's more I don't know about.

edit: Listen to this!
"If you keep on disconnecting, you may find yourself unable to find an opponent." XD

rofl I read that too. Funny, good, but also bad if yer connection just sucks.

Or do they mean if you don't even get on. o_o

I`m sure they can tell when its intentional. Each (unintentional) disconnection has its own error code.

Bland. And it's nothing like a regular DQ game. At all. Perhaps playing Dragon Quest V before this was a mistake.

Care to elaborate? (Seriously, your opinion would be very helpful.)
