Complaints mainly are about the traditional turn-based battle system. Westerners constantly ask about innovation in their games and DQ hasn´t evolved ever since. I´m not considering which one is better or worse.
Sure, if SE can market DQ like Nintendo did with Pokemon on their own then it would certainly reach a 'popular' status. But 100% SE can´t do that due to lack of resources, so they are definitely not the ones to blame. I´d blame Enix for not investing on the Western market like Squaresoft did and formed alliances with poweful players (Sony, EA). And since SE and Nintendo will promote together DQX, I don´t think there´s any reason to blame SE for anything, like the current trend dictates.
You know, I´ve never played Pokemon. I hate the anime for having such a stupid plot and characters. It´s for kids, not all ages (unlike DQ). And if DQ has to be downsized overseas for the sake of popularity, then no, better for DQ to never be popular abroad then.
