The Dragon Quest series may be one of the most popular video game franchises in Japan, but it has a loyal following in other parts of the world as well. The Nintendo DS remakes of Dragon Quest IV and V gave fans of the series an opportunity to play it again with updated visuals and DS-specific additions. But Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation has never been released in North America before, so this will be a first time for everyone (unless you imported).
So far 2015 has been a banner year for Android RPGs. While, unfortunately, we haven’t exactly seen a straight Western RPG lately, Android has, on the other hand, in this third quarter of 2015, developed a potpourri of new digital role-playing games. This year’s best include Action RPGs, Puzzle RPGs, ports of classic JRPGs, as well as a contemporary JRPG, and finally a couple of indies inspired, in part, by Western RPGs. Among these there are, thankfully, a decent-sized contingent of mobile-only titles. Regardless of the intended audience or sub-genre, however, each and every title below is deserving of its spot on this list in spades. What we have, considered as a whole, is a solid and eclectic spread, one that is reflective of the veritable smorgasbord of delights that Android gaming is becoming.
TTP:" Earlier this month the classic entry of the Dragon Quest series Dragon Quest VI: Realms Of Revelation has been made available on the Japanese App Store. English speaking fans of the series didn’t expect the game to surface on the App Store before a few months but Square Enix surprised pretty much everybody by releasing the English version of the game a few hours ago."
GA: Rage quitting or quitting a game quietly…we’ve all done it at least once. If you haven’t, you’re a liar or you have the patience of a saint. An insane saint, but a saint no less. This irregular (possibly monthly) column is dedicated to those moments of quitting, what caused us to go over the edge and never look back. It’s all about the point of no return.
Well, they kind of are. They're just about the most archetypal, accessible JRPGs on the market, with combat mechanics refined to perfection.
That's... kind of the reason they're so popular.
The boss fights are more difficult that the average RPGs, especially the final boss.
Yeaaaah, everyone knows to keep at least one of each rare equipment item in your bag. And especially don't sell the stuff that you can only get once per playthrough. This guy just didn't use JRPG logic and got stuck at a part of the game that should have been a given. (I honestly don't even remember this part of the game because it was such a small event.)
