Which fans?
If I am a DQ fan I would be more pissed that the 3DS version of DQ will not be localized and that is a disservice to the long time fans that is more interested with the 3DS version. 3DS ver. can let you choose between 2d and 3d which can be a unique experience.
Anyway, I am also going to defend SE with in regards with the NSW version.
Take note that DQXI is using Unreal ver. 4.13 and NSW is only compatible with Ver. 4.15. It's a possible that they encountered a problem with porting the game. Also, NSW is using an expensive format. As someone pointed out that DQXI PS4 version is taking 30GB of space. You have to take account that there is still no VA on the Japan version.
A straight up port from japan version will be stupid because it will be seen as a sup bar version. It leads me to think that they are planning to use a different version for the Switch they could be doing a chibi 3D version but more beautiful and a 2D version. Maybe that is the reason we are not seeing any screenshot for it and there's no 3DS version for the west.
or Maybe Hori announce it prematurely when NX was announced and they didn't expect that it will be a lot harder porting the DQXI to NSW.

According to PlayStation Access, besides the game being translated into EFIGS (English French Italian German Spanish), the following is being added: - Voice Acting (Japanese version has no VA) & 'lip syncing.' - Revamped, more visually appealing menus - A 'Run' button - A 'First Person' mode - A 'Draconian Quest' difficulty mode - The ability to hide the UI (for Share button picture taking people) |
I am glad they are including VA and supporting a lot of languages. It's also cool that they are adding a lot of new features in it.
I hope this will sells well. We need more traditional JRPG. It's tiresome if all the JRPG are all ARPG.
