The past of the villain

Game titles Dragon Quest In essence, it is not entirely “independent” but some games, like Dragon Quest I II IIIcan be considered an independent “line”, with the plot with linkage, and even Dragon Quest XI It seems to be within this trio.

However, Dragon Quest Never forced players to play a certain version to be able to play another version, because the stories between them are completely independent.

Actually, if you see the trailer of Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Princeveteran fans will immediately recognize who the main character Psaro is! Who else other than PSARO murder Dragon Quest IVThe evil Demon King wants to slaughter this humanity?

The plot of Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince Can be considered as a base of Dragon Quest IVspecifically explaining Psaro's background, and why Psaro became so cruel.

Specifically, Psaro was a hybrid between the Maou and the humanity, but then the mother (who was the person) of Psaro was seriously ill. This guy came to his father, Ma King Randolfo, and asked his father to help his mother, but instead of supporting, Randolfo put on Psaro a rather ironic curse, which was … never harm harmful to monster.

Therefore, Psaro had to find another option, which was … seizing monsters to fight with monsters. After a while of fighting, Psaro met Rose, whom we all knew that his greatest love, and rescuing Rose from the ruler, then the two of them wandered around the Terrestria land to find justice. For PSARO's mother.

The writer assesses the plot of Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince It is relatively attractive, and quite new. The fact is the story circuits of Dragon Quest Often follow a “spotless” person, a genuine hero, so a villain – which can be considered a hero – in a game Dragon Quest Really blowing a new breeze, a new emotion different from other versions.

The plot of Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince relatively attractive, and quite new

Players will realize a lot of interesting links Dragon Quest IVand will not be less than a dozen “oh” to enjoy the meaning of the familiar scenes and events, however Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince It is not required the player must “be heartbroken” Dragon Quest IV It is possible to enjoy the plot – that is, if you have never played Dragon Quest IV It's okay, the plot is still completely able to grasp.

Overall, with Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Princereaders will be immersed in a bold world “Dragon Quest“, A relatively fascinating storyline with a protagonist is not a” saint “, promising to bring a memorable experience for JRPG fans.

However, there is a “small” problem, that is Psaro … being “dumb” – like the main characters of the game series Dragon Quest other. This is a pity because it is clear Dragon Quest IV Psaro said relatively much, and perhaps a lot of players wanted to hear this guy's voice, and also somewhat affected the leader of the story, because Psaro was a character built, not, not is “blank paper”.

Dragon Quest Shin Megami Tensei !!!

The game is the game Dragon Quest Monsters There is a “core technology” that has not been constantly changing after many years, which is:

• You go out to see the monster
• You can choose to collect monsters or defeat to increase your experience
• After gathering enough monsters with enough experience, you can “combine” the monsters together into a monster … “maybe” is stronger.
• Repeat until you see the team enough “buffalo”.

With the motto “If it's not broken, don't fix it” Pokemon, Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince Possessing the same play as the previous versions … and still really addictive, most in the “combination” of monsters – with a passionate person Shin Megami Tensei and Pokemon Like the writer, the gameplay of Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince Suddenly became too familiar and suitable.

Players will control a team of 4 monsters to fight all over the world, with the traditional turn -based fighting mechanism of Dragon Quest. When you see monsters on the road, you can hit them with experience, or “capture” by … for the monster your team to “show off muscle”, to persuade the other monster to join, and each time ” Showing off ”the screen will jump up to show the ability to catch the monster.

When the beast reaches level 10, that monster can be used as a combination material. The “child” monster can inherit the skills from “father” and “mother”, so you can combine some monsters with the index and skills to sweep all the objects in the game – And indeed this is the main source of “dopamine” Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Princewhen you spend hours testing, preparing, using, going to Google to investigate the combination, then prepare, use …

The main “dopamine” source of Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Princewhen you spend hours testing, preparing, using, going to Google to investigate the combination, then prepare, use …

It looks simple, but Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince TActually possessing difficulty must also be the top of the game series, when you do not have to call 4 powerful attacks to be able to win.

Specifically, you will need a healing monster, a monster to increase your side, a monster reducing the enemy index, or must be very flexible customization to be able to go through some difficult bosses with The mechanisms are relatively “miserable”. This is invisible in combination with the loop – the combination of the above, creating a pretty play game.

Combined with more than 500 monsters to hunt and combine, the writer can sit for hours just to “prepare” the monster, how to produce the strongest monster as possible.

Each monster will have its own skill tree, so you can even make a team of Dracky, but each Dracky has a different position – completely depending on your ability or luck.

General achievement, Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince There is a gameplay not called breakthrough or too prominent in the game series Dragon Quest Monsters In particular and the game market in general, however, the formula is still “delicious”, it is not guilty of changing, the game still brings an addictive and attractive experience.

The world of Akira Toriyama

Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince Still possessing the typical drawings of the late painter Akira Toriyama, from the world, character drawing, monsters and music.

The world of Nadiria is divided into many areas (also a tradition of Dragon Quest), for each area, it is divided into three floors, lower, medium and upper. Nadiria in Dragon Quest IV It is described quite sketchy, however in Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince It is described in detail, with each area has a unique feature, a completely different unique drawing, and this is also one of the main motivations for players to explore the magical world by Akira. Thao should.

In some places, it looks dark, scary as the name “hell”, some places are full … Confectionery and sweet honey, some places are icy, some are all … factories, certainly the continent This Nadiria will be the fans Dragon Questor fans of the late painter Akira Toriyama, love.

The writer especially praised the variety of monsters, and the diversity in the strokes of each monster, instead of just “Reskin” in a cheap way, even some new ones that the writer has not ever seen in games Dragon Quest other. For example, the basic monster “slime” (viscous puffer), but up to … 40 different strains, each slime has a unique form like Slimecicle has a very large ice hat on the head, Wild Slime Both people all feathers …

These monster drawings are the biggest motivation for the writer to spend hours hunting monsters, testing, and then “plowing” experience for new monsters to use …

Even music also has the extremely characteristics of the game series Dragon Questalthough it is not too excellent, but for such veteran fans is more than enough to do more comfortable experience.

The game runs relatively smoothly even on Steam Deck, so players will be immersed in a fanciful world most beautiful!

You will hate

Still have to “plow” as usual

Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince There is such a loop, but it should be remembered that the level of 10 monsters can be combined, and it takes a high level to be able to use it to fight. Different from Shin Megami Tensei good Personathe newborn monster starts from … level 1, so you have to “plow” for them to be able to use.

Because you test the squad, rotate the monster a lot, so the plowing is also … horrible, and you are forced to “plow” from the beginning of many monsters whenever you go to a new area and catch the children. The new monster if you want to overcome the area in that area.

This plow for fans some game genre is not significant, but for those who just want to feel the plot, “plowing hoes” like this is really a challenge of patience!

However, the game has a number of functions such as fast fringed match, or automatically fighting to make the plowing become easier and more flexible.

Because you test the squad and rotate the monster is a lot, so the plowing is also … horrible

Paragraph links

As mentioned above, Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince Can be considered as a base of Dragon Quest IV and contain relatively many events about Dragon Quest IVso it is possible to understand some events that players can feel … a bit bewildered.

Even the writer played Dragon Quest IV ROh, you can grasp many details that beginners do not know, but there are still some details of the writer … do not remember, leading to confusion in some actions of Psaro, to the point of sometimes feeling sensation Like Psaro was … followed by the story circuit of Dragon Quest IV So.

Some of the events that the writer expects will have been explained more carefully, or in more detail, they are not done very carefully, leading to a few disappointments. For example, the Psaro segment meets The Chosen – the main characters that players control in Dragon Quest IV – Players think there will be more emotions, like when Jack met 4 light warriors Strangers of Paradise: Final Fantasy Originhowever, this scene was made a bit quickly, so almost emotions were lost.

In general, this does not greatly affect the structure of the plot Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Princejust a little complaint from a fan Dragon Quest That's it.

Some events that the writer expects will be more carefully explained, or more detailed, they are not done very carefully.
