| Soriku said: Why is DQ VII so long anyway? I mean the story isn't intensive, right? Or is it like DQ VIII where you just do a lot of stuff going from place to place on a big world map (random battles don't help). Because I've already clocked 4 hours just getting up to the crystal ball part (I have it and back in town now) and I can tell this game's going to be pretty long... |
The game is broken up into small indavidual stories (or quests if you will) where you go looking for pieces of the world. Unlike nearly every other DQ game where you have the freedom to explore the world map and complete the game as you wish, this game makes you do things based on triggers of finding pieces of the world and going through portals. Depending on your view, the game doesn't even 'start' until 25-30 hours in.
