Makes you wonder about Dragon Quest XI



If this game has post game super bosses like the last...I don't even know how they'd be even possible at 20-25 fps. Some people are gonna be pissed when they see this stuttery mess.

Just needs more time on Switch version. I mean we know the Switch can handle BotW so can't see why this game is struggling. Lazy developers I guess

Well Zelda drops to 20fps too.

Switch will have its own unique version

 

Junichi Masuda: I get the feeling that means there will be four versions across three platforms then, yeah?

Horii: That’s right. There are a lot of difficulties because of that. Each one has a different look to it, and there’s also a PlayStation 4 version, so if we make a small fix then we have to fix it across every version.

I really hate that "lazy developers" phrase

the Switch version is probably expected to sell ~50k copies ww and hence the budget (set by the publisher) for the port was very limited, so adjusting a big chunk of the assets to get the best visuals/performance combination out of the Switch just seems financially unfeasible

I don't doubt the devs would have loved to make it the best version it can be

the comparison with BotW makes no sense as that title is easily expected to sell 5m+ copies (I think even 15m+ is a possibility), so there was a lot more budget to achieve the polish on display

It's also supposed to be "super easy to port games" then you see returns like these. It definitely raises the question of viability of 3rd party games on it.

Why should they only expect to sell 50k copies with a proper port? And why shouldn't Switch users expect a better performance in portable mode than the Vita version (only a fraction of the Switch's RAM and processing power) of the same game?

That's unfortunate. I'm not a big enough DQ fan to get this on PS4, but the 2-in-1 release was pretty enticing. Guess that's a lost sale.

Its not a "real" DQ game... so Imo no big loss.

Its one of those musuo hack & slash type games... I wouldnt get this for PS4 either (where it runs fine).

DQ1 was pretty musou, but DQ2 is more along the lines of an action RPG based on import impressions I've read.

Huh? in what way?

I don't really care about frame rate stuff as long it plays ok, so I think it's good enough compared to Ps4, especially if you think it's a launch title and obviously there was more focus towards the Ps4 version



don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^
