Both versions look good and with distinct art, definitely getting both.

 

[Kazer]

This looks fantastic!

 

[Ragelink26]

Before I opened this thread I made sure it didn't say "First Dragon Quest, XI screenshots".


I've been burned before

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

Here are some 3DS screens:

3DS screens look better than expected (and the bottom screen visual style is a nice touch), but with that PS4 version looking like that... yeah, they can keep it.

 

[Zombie James]

Glorious.

 

[Raven77]

Is this coming to the US?

 

[Zophar]

Both versions look incredible.

 

[darkside31337]

Wow this looks great. Have no doubts about this version of the game coming over at least. Hope they both do, 3DS is cool in its own way.

 

[Eusis]

Is this coming to the US?

It's probably the main reason the PS4 version even exists.

 

[GooWop]

Putting in dat work!

 

[Fine Ham Abounds]

Looks like super HD DQ8

which is fine by me

 

[anderedna]

Great! A turn based game for PS4. I'm happy with this.

Graphic also looks great. Hope SE can deliver this next year.

 

[Nerokis]

Ahh, looks so good.

The PS4/3DS approach is a genius move on SE's part. I know I won't be able to resist getting both versions.

 

[udivision]

Something looks off...

 

[Sammy Samusu]

I refuse to play both versions. UGGHH

 

[Nocturno999]

That's a next gen JRPG o.o

 

[shinobi602]

Based UE4.

 

[archangelmorph]

Lickie Lickie Lickie POL-EE-NA-RE-PHUU!!

 

[Memento]

Wow. Looks fantastic!

 

[jmaine_ph]

That Rosetta Stone app still good for learning new languages? I might not be able to wait.

 

[zeox]

THOSE LIPS.

seeing that character makes me sad though, I want to make my own T_T. What's the chance of them doing a prologue type thing the same way they did with DQX, where you get to make a character after the prologue is over? (yes i know you create your prologue character in dqx)

 

[Hitokiri03]

It looks so good.

 

[sublimit]

I need this game!

 

[AgeEighty]

Was DQVIII this flat, I'm almost certain it wasn't but memory may be playing tricks on me? The 3DS version looks less flat but that's largely due to the nature of the beast.

VIII was about the same as this: cel-shaded characters, but with some slight 3D depth. I think there's more shading to the characters in XI than these screenshots make it look. You can see it with the Lips monsters, some.

I mean look at the characters in that dungeon shot; that's not really super flat cel shading.

 

[Vincent Grayson]

Looks awesome. Can't wait for this to come out.

 

[SomedayTheFire]

The hair looks the same on both. The 3DS model has an over-sized head. If you're into chibi art, I could see why you'd prefer that version. It looks good too.

Maybe it's just the hair looks weird from behind. I don't really know.

 

[Kikorin]

Wow it's awesome :0

I love 3DS version too.

 

[Primethius]

My god, it's beautiful!

 

[decoyplatypus]

Both versions look beautiful, although I'm still slightly put off by the clash between the environment and character models in the PS4 version.

 

[TheGreatDirector]

Yeah this will be the first Dragon Quest game I play after the little of 8 I got to try.

 

[crooked spin]

Both versions look phenomenal. Would love to see a Zelda game done in that style on 3DS.

 

[Steroyd]

I eagerly await the localisation confirmation.

 

[GhostTrick]

It looks amazing... but also weird
I mean, it's like they're using different artstyles... ennemis looks cell shaded while the overworld seems to be semi-realistic with a weird lighting...

 

[Magicpaint]

Both look great but I prefer the 3DS version. It has that perfect, charming DQ look to it. Something about the pseudo-realistic environments in the PS4 version doesn't quite suite me. I'm sure it'll grow on me though, but I was hoping for something more like Ni No Kuni for the PS4 version visually.

 

[Andiie]

Wow, it looks so good.

 

[Philippo]

PS4 version looking almost like DQX CGI trailers, impressive.

 

[ShadowElliot]

Really excited for this! Those monsters in the PS4 screenshot look so happy, especially the Slime, and Dracky in the back.

 

[BumRush]

Last screenshot can't be fully real, right?

 

[AgeEighty]

I'm sure it'll grow on me though, but I was hoping for something more like Ni No Kuni for the PS4 version visually.

If you look at some of the shots, especially the forest one, hyper realism isn't really what they're going for, just a very detailed version of a cartoon background. I think they're pulling it off nicely, it's just that some of the shots make it look more like they're going for stark realism.

 

[Glass Rebel]

Looks pretty impressive but somehow off. The environments and the models don't mesh that well. The 3DS version is better in that regard but that IQ reeks of bullshots.

 

[Bloodrage]

I said it before, and i say it again, the PS4 version needs Cel-Shading.

No thanks. This is about as good as I could have imagined it.

 

[SomedayTheFire]

It looks amazing... but also weird

It's not really cell shaded, they Tony Hawk'd the characters I think. Black outlines and flat textures.

 

[Goteki_45]

Wow looks awesome, dat UE4 does a fine job.

Haven't played a DQ game since DQVIII, and I love that game


also is this going to be turn based or action slash?

 

[delSai]

Beautiful. Really like how it looks.

 

[Kandinsky]

When I opened the thread the battle screen didnt load, and man that looks off as hell, I dont know. Enviroments look amazing tho.

 

[hamchan]

I want this game so badly.

 

[bobbychalkers]

3DS bullshots aside, both versions look really good.

 

[SteveO1683]

Man that dungeon PS4 shot. Will be there day one if it gets localized.

 

[Devilgunman]

The PS4 version looks like a very pretty DQX, and that is a compliment.

I'll definitely buy both versions. SQE is kicking it.

 

[MatrixMan.EXE]

The 3DS shots are bullshots to be sure, but I can already picture it on my actual 3DS screen and it has me salivating.

PS4 version looks ridiculous though. I can't wait for both. Hopefully we get a proper trailer at TGS and then a more in depth look at Jump Festa.

I refuse to play both versions. UGGHH

You probably won't need to.
