The "a" at the end of her name. It doesn't just apply to "Dragona".

English really shouldn't have dropped gender and case.

This is awesome news. Now, lets hope IV and V come out in the states. And then eventually VI, which I have some strange obsession with playing.

On the contrary, English should have dropped gender-specific pronouns altogether. It would make things much easier, since in most cases they just trip you up.

don't spoil yourself or anything people, don't read damn story sypnosis about DQV.

you need to experience the story! I was lucky enough to not know anything about it till I played the game back winter 2006. one of the best story in JRPGs, if you ask me.

Wow.

Then again it was sort of the same for me back several years ago when I ran through the translation. Practically my first taste of Dragon Quest and I've never looked back since.

Having gotten into Dragon Quest more recently than some, I've tended to few the series as story-lite compared to most other big RPG series. So yeah, I was pleasantly surprised at the way Dragon Quest V unfolded.

Sadly, I'm pretty sure all the DQ DS remakes will come out in Japan before even one of them sees the light of day here.

DQIV USA will probably be after July, thanks to the FFIV release, but I can't possibly see a future where DQVI is released and DQIV has yet to see the light of English day.

that's not the case for me, I actually enjoy and look forward to DQ stories. I can't really say the same about a bunch of jrpgs.

is it the cool scenarios? yeah. the awesome feeling of adventure? yes. the lack of melodramatic stuff? absolutely. I don't really like using this word to describe games, but to me, DQV story is epic.

I really hope that it's in my hands sometimes in the Summer. I really have nothing to do then (unless, I'm forgetting some big releases...)

Trauma Center?
Final Fantasy IV itself?
Etrian Odyssey?
Space Invaders Extreme?

The DS is doing pretty good for the summer season

Sadly, I'm not really interesting in those games (maaaybe Trauma Center. And the reason I'm not getting FFIV is because I have a policy of buying remakes of games I own.)

Although, I was speaking of games on all of the consoles/handhelds I own (I realize I may have sounded like a troll.)

Poor you.

Encounter rate isn't as high as SMT games, though. (at least, Nocturne.)

Remember: DQ is pretty much old-school.

It'd only be weird if we actually saw more of DQIX and turned out to best one yet. Sadly, that isn't the case(from what we have seen thus far).

Well unlucky for you because FFIV might be one of the best examples of how to do a remake where the game feels very fresh!

By the same token, the sooner we get the FFIV,V,VI,etc remake out of the way, the closer we get to FFIX. :(

Don't worry..the first part is just a stab at the people in MC threads who think DS sales have saturated.

The second part..yeah I've never played a DQ game ever..I was kind of excited that the DS was gonna be ARPG but now its turned back in TBRPG..but it looks like its not random battles.
