Dragon Quest VI DS review

 This game is awesome, if you like the dragon quest series, you should definitely get this game! I was wondering weather I should play DQ 4 and 5 first before this one, but it doesn't make a difference since the trilogy isn't really connected. I actually liked this game more than DQ9 because you are able to interact with the characters in your party, unlike DQ9 where they seemed more like ghosts following you around and helping you fight. . Everything has very nice resolution, without it zooming in on a mass of pixels, as in some of the FF games for DS. On the other hand, while it may not be able to handle 3D the sprites are still charming. The battle system is turned based, but the enemy can always hit you whenever. For the most part you'll explore an overworld map and talk to characters to figure out where to go. By large, Dragon Quest VI is mostly non-linear. Dragon Quest VI can keep you busy for well over 60 hours.

in the end, what counts is it looks much much better than the SNES counterpart.
