Capcom does it again!

This is by far the game I have played the most in the series. It's not often that I find myself doing more than one run in a game these days, but I finished this game like 5 times on different difficulty settings.

Graphics are amazing, as usual, and you can configure the settings to match your specs easily. For being a FPS Capcom has managed to do stuff to your character in ways that will surprise you throughout the game.

If you don't have this game already, get it!

I played the demo 10 hours straight and enjoyed it so much that I bought the full game which I don't regret!
This game is a joy to the eye, easy to play, immersive story and it doesn't feel repetitive. Whenever you reach a new area you also do completely new stuff, no quest is the same, which makes the game feel fresh and never gets boring. Still there will be a fair bit of grinding to level up and get some gold, but I did like one or two levels whenever I had to travel from one place to another and that seemed to be enough.

Now, all this was from the demo, ten hours and twelve minutes worth of playing, can you continue playing from your save in the full version? YES! And you even get a really handy reward for finishing the demo itself. And it all carries over when you start the full version.

When it comes to the graphics and loading there's a couple of things to say. First of all it looks gorgeous, everything is very tight, no screen tearing and the stability is just perfect. Now, I'm playing on a 55" TV with an older PC (gtx970) upgraded with a couple of ssd's, and the loading times are just stupid fast, I haven't had a loading screen lasting more than 3 seconds, and you don't get loading screens very often either. Still the game runs on max settings on older hardware which is nice! My PC is like 8 years old and still no problems running this, and it looks and feels like playing on PS5.

Playing with controller works like a charm, but would be nice with an option to choose what controller you're playing with to get the right button layout. Right now the game seems to be locked in with the Xbox layout. Not that it matters too much, but since I'm playing with a PS4 controller it has happened that I push "X" instead of "square" when the game tells you to push "X"!

I haven't really followed the Dragon Quest franchise over the years, it has been very sporadically, but I did play a couple of them, but I kinda fell off the wagon because it got a bit childish(?) I guess. But this game has a bit more grownup feel to the graphics and story, don't worry though, you will get your dose of the typical cheesiness of course, but not too much, it's all very well balanced.

And the music is really good too, I'm not into symphonies and orchestra, but this is actually not bad. You can almost feel the skill level of the people that played the instruments.

I'm not gonna put a grade, or number on this game because it's just a really really good game. It's perfect for the upcoming holidays, and also considering the situation on this planet right now. Here you have a game with an exciting story, beautiful graphics and it will just suck you in. I haven't played RPG's like this in a while, I've been more into other genres, but this game really brought me back, and I'm enjoying it to the fullest.


Just buy it if you're into this kind of games, you will not regret it!

Probably one of the best games out there in this genre. Just buy it!
