Forums - Nintendo - Should I be hyped for DQX Wii??

You see I've never played a DQ game. I see people here on VGChartz talking about the DQ games, and with the release of DQ IX in the US and the some recent tidbits of news on DQX Wii, people have been talking about it more...

So my question is... is it worth getting hyped for? like where does it stand on you guys' hype lists? especially compared to other Wii RPGs.

Also, how hyped for the game are YOU?? on a scale from 1-10 (knowing nothing about the game itself except that it's DQ)

My most anticipated Wii game!

9.5/10



If you've never played a DQ game I would suggest being optimistic over being "hyped" since they aren't for everyone.  I'm an avid JRPG player but I just couldn't get into DQ as a series.  Just be happy if you're a JRPG fan since you'll have another to play, but don't expect something amazing.



...

It would easily be my most anticipated Wii game if I even knew the year it comes out in Japan, let alone NA/EU.



Hrm... my hype is probably about a 6.5 for this game. Back in the day, it'dve been a lot higher, but lately, I just don't trust S-E anymore. And I know my score will also change upon DQ9 coming in, and seeing how that is. If it's good, the excitement for 10 will increase; if bad, well... if it's bad enough, I won't even bother preordering 10...

I'm VERY hyped for this game. I've loved the DQ series ever since I started playing them on GBC.

I think the only Wii games that currently trump DQX in terms of hype are Donkey Kong Country Returns and Tales of Graces.

Level 5 made DQVIII, and IX though. I dunno who's making DQX, maybe that'll have something to do with it too.

But, I haven't liked a dragon quest game other than ones that was in the SE-era DQ game. (Though I want V, and I am thinking that will top those, I've played every other one, though not finished from 1-4,7-9

Eh, we'll see. 8 was pretty good, but it pales in comparison to 4. Like I said, that number will be revised the most by my impressions of DQ9 once that gets here.

Nobody can anwer that question becuase if you have never played DQ what can any of us do to hype you? I suggest getting DQXI or sny of the other installments and playing them. If yuo dont like them you will not like DQ X * unless its dramtically different* as the series hasnt had any huge changes since its creation.



I'll wait until I see the game before I make a judgement. Right now I'm enjoying DQIX thoroughly enough(again), so I definitely am excited at the though of DQX being released relatively soon and on my favorite home console. I recommend getting DQIX, as it pretty much is what you should expect with DQX. If you like traditional role-playing games, then this should signify a top quality release for you. As for a scale, I'll just rate Dragon Quest IX instead of how hyped I am for DQX. I'd give it around 8.8 in an actual likeness of 1-10, but with the inflated review system I'd give it a 9.5.
