it looks so good omg

 

[Cleve]

I wonder if multiplayer will be cross platform?

Only if they can keep the kids safe from nintendo players.

Spoiler

Nope.

 

[ShaoranWright]

I'd love to see it released on PC just like other square enix games, but if not, I guess I'll take the PS4 version.

 

[Aeana]

Online co-op or bust. Never even considered the 1st once I found out it didn't have what makes Minecraft so great.

It has other things that make it great, that Minecraft doesn't have.
It's not a Minecraft clone.

 

[tsundoku]

maybe the sequel will actually have co op and free building areas and have you build up a megatown instead of 'transport to new island / start over completely'

 

[AmayaPapaya]

Loved the demo for the first! Wanted to wait for a sequel, in the end, to iron out the flaws!

 

[addik]

Of course not, PS4 owners just aren't as loud as Switch owners.

Yeah if I manage to finish the first one, I'm going to get this one for my PS4.

Spoiler

If I had a Switch, I'd get it for that one though

 

[takoyaki]

Day 1

The first one was a fantastic surprise for me and Switch seems like the perfect platform for the sequel. Graphics closer to the PS4 version with the portability of the Vita version, all in one package.

 

[otakukidd]

Only if they can keep the kids safe from nintendo players.

Spoiler

Nope.

Well dragon quest x is

 

[Unicorn]

Omg yes! Sad I missed the first one.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Hm, might give it a try

 

[SinCityAssassin]

You think they'll announce a port of the first one ahead of this? I'd double dip.

 

[WickedLaharl]

It has other things that make it great, that Minecraft doesn't have.

Not for me but it's good to know this one has online.

 

[Quintin DM]

Fuck ya Switch!

 

[KZXcellent]

Yeah I honestly couldn't get into Minecraft that much. DQ Builders on the other hand was fantastic. Having a story mode with bosses and quests was so much fun.

 

[Terrell]

Looking forward to playing on the Switch 9+ months after it launches on PS4.

Was this worth it for you?

 

[Elfforkusu]

Hmm, haven't even finished the first one yet. Game has charm, but I suck at building things.

Something about:

Minecraft + objectives + DQ world == magic

 

[Calm Mind]

Looking forward to playing on the Switch 9+ months after it launches on PS4.

 

[nicolasacmf]

Square starting to pick up the slack with the Switch? Nice.

 

[Effect]

Nice!!! Been wanting to play this. So only PS4 footage?

 

[KZXcellent]

Really hoping they localize this and especially the new Fortune Street they're showing off. I NEED THEM.

 

[Unison]

Is anything else coming out of this event?

 

[thebisonxrc]

I skipped this on PS4, but always wanted to play it. I'll definitely be grabbing this for Switch. Pretty excited and surprised to know that it's coming!

 

[tsundoku]

oh look
coop

 

[mstevens]

I never could get into Minecraft but loved Dragon Quest Builders. Hmm, gonna have to decide if I want to get it on PS4 or Switch...

 

[Kyoufu]

If you're not familiar with DQB or you think it's just a Minecraft clone and isn't for you then read this article. You may end up being interested to give this game a go.

[The Technomancer]

I heard the first game got repetitive, which kept me away. Can anyone elaborate? I would really like to pick this up

 

[Giga Man]

CRAP! I've had the first game for a year and haven't opened it yet.

 

[ULTROS!]

I wonder if this is still being developed using the PhyreEngine.

It has other things that make it great, that Minecraft doesn't have.
It's not a Minecraft clone.

At first glance people will think it's a Minecraft clone. What differs is that it has set objectives, focused areas, and a third person view. Making the experience different than a Minecraft clone.

 

[Dark Cloud]

Lmao

 

[E_Darkness]

Is the demo for the first game a good indicator if you'll like the game? I'd hate to play the demo for it to do unnecessary harm.

 

[Commanche Raisin Toast]

I hope they bring the rocket car back too. That was kinda fun once you find a good area without too many obstacles.

They also need to keep the boss fights as involved as they were in the first title. Less random waves of enemies though please.

 

[RoboGeorgeForeman]

Nice. I never played the first one, but I'll be there day one.

 

[Aeana]

The demo is from the start of the game, so it's not terrible.

 

[Theswweet]

Looking at my import Vita copy of the first game right now... definitely grabbing this on Switch!

 

[nckillthegrimace]

I heard the first game got repetitive, which kept me away. Can anyone elaborate? I would really like to pick this up

You moved to a new area every chapter, so you had to rebuild your town multiple times. I would have preferred having one giant town.

 

[Hockey123]

Is anything else coming out of this event?

I think the new Fortune Street got its release date (October).

 

[tbhysgb]

Demo of the first game intrigued me, but I never found it at a decent price. Maybe I should jump into this one instead.

I feel bad cuz I got it on clearance at a small town shopko for 15 dollars.

 

[foxuzamaki]

I didn't think BOTW would have a influence on games this early, then again even AC seems to be using the slowmo arrow shot

 

[Licas1355]

Switch the successor of Vita.

 

[jack_package_200]

In for the Switch version

Gimme

 

[KZXcellent]

The game's Story Mode has you run into an abandoned town. You then meet various NPCs and build up a town while completing quests. Usually involves getting a certain material, making a building, crafting a new tool ect. Every so often you'll face off against hordes of enemies who will attack your town culminating in a Boss Battle that ends the arc.

Once you're done you leave the town and head into the next chapter. From there it's basically a clean slate with you starting in a new area with a new town and new set of characters to help. Some can find it repetitive to start from nothing all over again for each chapter but I think it handled it fine. They limit the material types you can use in each chapter so you end up working with different stuff each time.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

I still need to play the first one. ;_;

Glad to see they added what needed to be added.

 

[pretty done]

BotW didn't invent slow-motion aiming

 

[Hattori]

Thank You Square-sama for Switch version 🙇

 

[LiquidSolid]

I wonder if this is still being developed using the PhyreEngine.

Why wouldn't it? PhyreEngine is multiplatform.

 

[CrocoDuck]

Looks good. Will buy.

 

[massoluk]

Didn't buy the first one, but the Switch version will get my money. Can't beat 2 versions for the price of one

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

RIP vita. Switch is squares second console darling now

I always wanted DQB for both console and handheld so this will be great for me

 

[FallenGrace]

In for the PS4 version.

I hope I'm not the only one buying the PS4 version here lol.

Nah, GAFs Switch fans are just extremely vocal lol. I'm in for the PS4 version. Loved the first on PS4, this was great news to wake up to.
