Dragon Quest 10 |OT| Version 4 and beyond
- Thread starter Aeana
- Start date
The one I was having trouble with before was still quite hard. The next was a cinch. The last wasn't too bad, just took forever. Cool fight though.
Finished version 2 last night. I loved the last dungeon, the art was really moody you could feel the evil in there. There were some great set-pieces too like following the young princess through the spooky cosmic road. The story was great, I hope v3 is as good, Is v3 the one with that little time traveling chicken guy? Something about him gives me the willies.
On to Version 3, which if I move at the same pace I'll finish up in the year 2029. Look forward to it!

The voice acting in version 5 took a bit getting used to, but I'm really enjoying it now. Everything has been pretty cool, although at the same time it does feel a bit condensed, probably because they did have to voice everything. I've done the two east and west kingdoms and stopped for now.
I don't know if VA has been the reason, but the main story of 5.0 is very, very short. I think I finished it over the weekend and honestly it would have probably been doable in a day.
Luckily the patches are the usual length, so it takes a bit to get through them.
I just used this to get an idea on fusing/what the best accessories are:
There are probably better guides out there though!
I've made it to 5.2 now. Feeling a little burnt out and might wait a month before finally catching up fully.
Yeah I hear ya - what a year it's been for RPGs. I wanna play all the PRs too but holding out for console versions. Excited for Endwalker too!
Hopefully I can finish both DQX 6.0 and SMTV before EW hits, although the latter will most likely have priority.
That said, when 5.0 came out it was possible to beat it in not even a whole weekend, so I do wonder if this one will be as short.

Has anyone else finished 6.0?
While I enjoyed the new cast of characters, the base expansion definitely didn't blow my mind, especially compared to how strong the previous ones were. Hopefully the following patches will be really good.
For anyone interested, I think you can beat the whole 6.0 in under 10 hours, plus all the bosses have difficulty settings from the get go - no real problems there.

I haven't dug too deep - the first major boss kicked my ass and I got a little tired so I spent a bunch of time doing other stuff. My pirate is level 100 and I'm stubbornly determined to get to 120 even though I don't really love it as a class (lol). I'll probably get back to the main story next weekend though. Congrats on finishing!
Pirate unlock is very quick and you get enough skill points to max out the passive right away so I definitely recommend that.
When taken as a whole, how many hours of content is this? I know they are making an offline version that may or may not eventually come to the west. Just curious how much content there is for this.

Somehow...(???) I completely missed that they added the gadabout job to this game. I was browsing through the job quests in my quest log and saw the unlock quest for that. Really weird how a whole job just totally flew under my radar.
My current character, who is near the beginning of version 5 and has done pretty much nothing but main story quests and important sidequest unlocks has 330 hours clocked. There is tons more to do in the game. It has a lot of horizontal progression, unlike most MMOs today.

Mega bump I guess.
If anyone's still playing, looks like starting with the next patch, they'll finally make characters walk 1.5 times faster (in towns only, but that's where it's mostly needed). I'm glad because that was one of my biggest complaint with the game. Sure, teleporters helped but that wasn't quite it.
As for the new expansion, it doesn't look that appealing from what they've shown so far. I'm still in the middle of version 4 (I'll really try to finish it this year) and I may be missing some things, but I am under the impression version 5, or maybe 6?, was the grand finale to what they intended storywise, so I can't get really excited about it...
