My Thoughts on Dragon Quest I + II HD‑2D and Dragon Quest III HD‑2D

I’ve been checking out the reviews and previews for the HD‑2D remakes of Dragon Quest I + II and Dragon Quest III, and after playing them, here’s my take in plain, casual player talk. ⸻ 1. Classic Feel Meets Modern Touch For me, the biggest charm of these HD‑2D remakes is being able to relive the nostalgia of the original games while enjoying modern conveniences and upgraded visuals. It’s like wearing your favorite old clothes made with better fabric and added pockets—familiar, but pleasantly surprising. In I + II, I was curious about how they’d spice up combat, especially since the original I was pretty basic. The previews mentioned multi-enemy battles, which really piqued my interest. At the same time, I was worried that too many changes might ruin the classic feel. III HD‑2D struck a better balance: keeping the simple, heroic adventure vibe while adding quality-of-life improvements like faster battles, auto-save, and voice acting. ⸻ 2. Story and Immersion If you’re used to complex stories, the simple plots here might seem “lightweight.” But I’ve come to appreciate the “simplicity is beauty” approach. The classics were always about the chosen hero, saving the world, and defeating the big bad guy. In I + II, especially I, the story is straightforward. Some players say, “Don’t expect anything deep—just defeat the enemies and save the world.” Adding small side quests or tweaking narrative pacing could boost immersion without losing the original charm. III offers a richer world, with job classes, day/night cycles, and exploration that give more freedom. Exploring this world and building a party still feels exciting. ⸻ 3. Combat and Systems Combat is a big deal for me. The remakes did a good job improving it. • In III, combat feels more flexible, and speeding up battles reduces grind fatigue. • The job system remains, and switching classes or combining skills is still engaging. • In I + II, introducing multi-enemy battles in I shows the developers’ willingness to rethink classic mechanics, which I really appreciate. Of course, some old-school limitations show up, like running repetitive encounters or grinding for levels, which can feel tedious at times. ⸻ 4. Visuals, Audio, and Art The HD‑2D style combines pixel characters with modern lighting, depth, and layered environments, giving the world more “weight.” III is widely praised as the most beautiful in the HD‑2D series. Monster animations, combat effects, shadows, and environmental lighting all add a nice touch. Music and sound effects are faithful to the originals but remastered with modern instrumentation, and the addition of voice acting makes key dialogues more immersive. ⸻ 5. Minor Gripes and Hopes Even though I enjoyed both remakes, here are a few things I hope could be improved: 1. Richer story / side content – More side quests or character interactions would make the world feel even more alive. 2. Deeper system complexity – For players who love strategy, class combos, and skill trees, more depth would be nice. 3. Random encounters – Some areas can feel grindy; fewer encounters or visible monsters could help. 4. Platform / performance optimization – Handheld versions should run smoothly, with minimal loading and good visuals. 5. Cross-save / upgrade options – I + II remakes currently lack cross-platform save support, which could be inconvenient for future hardware migration. ⸻ 6. Overall Thoughts Overall, these HD‑2D remakes are highly worth checking out, especially for nostalgic players or anyone who loves classic RPGs. • If you missed the originals, these remakes are an excellent entry point: modern visuals, smooth gameplay, and friendly mechanics. • If you’re a long-time fan, it’s rewarding to see the classics come to life while respecting the original vision. • If you prefer complex narratives or extremely deep systems, some parts might feel light—but the remakes strike a solid balance of classic charm and modern convenience. In short: Dragon Quest III HD‑2D feels like the most polished and mature entry in the series so far, while I + II HD‑2D is a bold attempt to modernize the classics. If you enjoy this type of game or classic RPGs, these remakes are definitely worth trying. I’d love to hear your thoughts if you’ve played them too 🙂

Having a good time with this one. Aside from the obivious srpg style that ressembles Final Fantasy Tactics in the character structure (doesn't got job change, but can equip reaction and action skills), it contains two main gameplays: 1) the 1st one is the basic structure that you see in a lot of gacha games, where you select a stage, spent energy and battle your way in this part of the campaign, along side all others gacha strucutures so far (upgrades and such);

Uncharted Tombs Of Creed | Android

Here Drake is an ordinary tourist who will find himself by chance in an ancient Egyptian city, hidden from the world because of the desert sands. The locals, who he meets along the way, are also an RPG, they tell him legends about powerful pharaohs and treasures hidden in the bowels of the pyramids protected by terrible monsters awakened from eternal sleep due to the evocation of an ancient curse. It will be precisely these evil spirits who will transform the once prosperous oasis into a kingdom of darkness and fear with giant scarabs, nightmarish mummies, etc. with the sole intent of reclaiming the city and chasing away the peaceful residents. The title has the style of Assassin's Creed Mobile (only for iOS) and Tomb Raider. It will be thanks to a local inhabitant, with whom we will interact several times, who will provide clues that will allow us to reveal the mystery of the ancient sphinx and break the curse!  We will travel through temples and lost dungeons, we will encounter mystical creatures, we will have to solve puzzles to open passages, jump and climb to unlock contraptions and finally face powerful bosses. Exploring the ancient ruins in 3D is a marvel for the eyes considering it is a mobile title; it reminds me of the splendor of Gameloft with 9mm. Very often we will be fascinated by the architecture of the buildings that we can even cross and interact with to open portals. The particle effects of the sea and the water that gushes from the fountains of the palace are well designed, the pyramids in the distance, the sailing ship with its sails under the impetuous wind, the moving clouds with dynamic weather (depends on the time you play it), the grass caressed by the wind, etc. It is still in beta-test phase and the improvements will come in the current year.

Ryu Ga Gotoku Online | Android ( Only Japan )

Known in the West as Yakuza Online, it is a title developed by Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio (an internal division of Sega), supervised by Masayoshi Yokoyama, and directed by Akio Horii for iOS, Android, and PC. The subtitle visible in the image, "黄龍放浪記" (Kōryū Hōrōki), refers to the second part of the main story, which focuses on the character Ryuji Goda. 1) 📝 STORYLINE: The plot of Ryu Ga Gotoku Online introduces a new protagonist, Ichiban Kasuga, a former yakuza member with a strong sense of honor and a larger-than-life personality. After being betrayed and serving a long prison sentence, Ichiban returns to society to find a completely changed world and a fragmented yakuza organization.  The story unfolds through criminal intrigue, fragile alliances, and power struggles, maintaining the classic narrative style of the Yakuza series: intense drama, humorous moments, and deep characters. Meanwhile, the second part of the storyline (Kōryū Hōrōki) brings Ryuji Goda to the forefront, offering an alternative perspective and expanding the narrative universe with events and backstories related to his past and ambitions. The game thus expands the saga's lore, connecting to the main events of the series and introducing new protagonists and antagonists.

Super Mario RPG is a must-play remake of one of the most nostalgia-packed SNES RPGs ever

SHOULD I PLAY SUPER MARIO RPG? That depends. Do you like feeling joy? Do you get a kick out of taking part in pure, unabashed, childlike glee and wonder? If yes, then duh, absolutely jump into the wonderful world of Super Mario RPG as soon as possible. But if you’re more of a Bowser-esque figure who prefers ruining the day for innocent toadlings, or if you prefer your RPGs avoid cracking jokes at all costs, then maybe this one just isn’t for you. Or maybe this will be the game that finally breaks through the thick, Grinch-esque barrier of cynicism and unhappiness you’ve surrounded yourself in. Who knows?

The thrilling conclusion of an amazing JRPG story - Trails into Reverie Quick Review

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it if you’re a big Legend of Heroes fan, but newcomers to the series are better off starting elsewhere. The Legend of Heroes: Trails into Reverie is a sprawling epic that serves as a conclusion to both the Cold Steel and Crossbell story arcs. It doesn’t waste much time on recaps or exposition, so if you’re not familiar with previous games, you’ll probably feel pretty lost. If you’re curious about the game, but don’t want to jump in at the end of the story,

Black Beacon | Android

We will take on the role of the Seer, Zero, a prophet foretold in ancient prophecies, whose mysterious black monolith will be known as the “Beacon” which once activated, will trigger anomalies beyond comprehension in the Tower of Babel! These anomalies are much more than just myths. Within them lie hidden truths, waiting to be discovered. Our task will be to lead a secret organization called: Eme-an to protect humanity from unknown dangers that will awaken an ancient sun god, and what follows is a perilous journey through time where the very existence of humanity is at stake! It is a sci-fi ARPG that boasts beautiful animated cutscenes and the characters shine most when they are engaged in heated battles and strategic combat! Additionally, we will have to chain together the coolest combos to take down huge enemies, maximizing each character's strengths for satisfying victories; it also allows you to swap characters mid-fight or mid-combo, which at least gives them some respite after being thrown by monsters.  Our choices will determine the fate of the world and will resonate through the centuries.

#JRPGsILove Octopath Traveler

I’d recommend Square Enix’s Octopath Traveler. Its gorgeous and dreamlike art style is everything, plus a good story (you have a chance to explore eight travelers’ life and each of them has different abilities) and incredible music. Also, there are dungeons and caves, in addition to the main quest. It has enough content to keep me playing.
