The age of dragons is here! Well actually the age of dragons begins in a few days on July 12, but that's neither here nor there. Anyways, we have a new trailer to get you amped up for some time-traveling, dragon-slaying action. Through three different eras (present-day Tokyo, ancient Atlantis, and futuristic Eden), players will customize their own professional team of dragon hunters to meet the inevitable threat. With 96 appearance variations to choose from, eight unique classes to utilize, party synergies to maintain, and a cat café to manage (IT'S FREAKING ADORABLE), RPG enthusiasts will feel right at home with 7th Dragon III Code: VFD! And hey, if you're not sure about it, there's a demo you can download and play from the Nintendo eShop RIGHT. NOW.

This game looks great, the reviews that dropped today were very positive. I ordered it for $23 after the prime discount and that $10 audible credit.

Ahh shit i was planning on not buying this game till later on in the year considering i still have yet to beat fire emblem fates, #FE, and plan on buying DQ7 and SMT apocalypse.

It's a glorious time to be a jrpg fan, but talk about being overwhelmed with games o_0

So I take it the DLC is only available through an in-game option and can't just be grabbed from the eShop?

How far into the game do you have to play to access the DLC shop?

Yes, DLC for 3DS games have to be bought within the game itself, not the eShop.

Well, this is KIND OF tempting, I was thinking of waiting for the game to drop in price, but with the prime discount & the free DLC, maybe I'll get it, put in my backlog, then pick it up once I finish my other games.
 
Free DLC is pretty awesome. I have my copy preordered through Amazon. Will be a few days before I get it after release but I'm so backlogged anyway I can wait.

Remind me, the demo save data carries over to the main game, right? I did the prologue, should probably finish the demo to get a better feel if this is for me.

yep, as long as you don't delete the demo, apparently if you run out of play times and delete the demo, you lose all of your data.
Not like it would take you 30 plays to beat a ~1 hour demo anyways.

Played the demo for this and was not empressed. Idk the constant random battles ruined the flow of the game. It just felt like a chore
 
Just noting that this is the last day to claim the first two free bits of DLC (not sure what time tomorrow they expire and the next DLC comes out).
