>>47212595>Dragon Quest 12 is ditching turn-based combat and trying to be "for adults"Hahahah, leave it for the shills in /vp/ to run with a mistranslation, and spread it like a gospel.
Hint: Hori said "It won't be implemented as traditional turn-based combat, but elements of it will be present" (Xenoblade/gears/FF7R-style, maybe?); and to appease the already enraging masses in japan, he's gonna go and explain some time later about the whole thing.
I'm expecting a hybrid of it, because like other anons that actually play something else than pokemon, they tried to do that in 9, and people were FURIOUS about it, and with reason.
Only way i see it working is either hybrid, or copying another action RPG combat style like the Mana series.
You REALLY think they're gonna sell the fucking golden goose, when EVEN SEGA WITH YAKUZA has decided that from now on, they're using the DQ RPG scheme for the game? This genre is a staple of traditional japanese videogames; there, it's a sacred cow. Dare to desecrate it and, well, see for yourself.
This is just a test in the waters (once again), to see if they don't get burned.
Plus, have you seen the FUCKING HYPE out of DQ3 remake 2D HD? Of course not, but glad it's coming as well.
