Finally got the game for my PS4. Is the loading at the start always takes longer than usual? (I don't have ssd)
Other than that, been playing for 1 hour now lol.

Dragon Quest Builders 2 |OT| You Can Pet the Dog
- Thread starter Deleted member 10737
- Start date
Speaking of which, does anybody have an SD card recommendations? Ive downloaded Dragon Quest, and Fire Emblem digitally, so I may need to get a new SD Card soon. Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask.
PS: Dragon Quest Builders 2 is amazing xD Been a while since Ive put this much time into a game in such a short amount of time.
I'm halfway through the final big island. I just went back to check the mailbox and nothing in it. Guess this is out only on Switch.
There's a big prompt that will show up when you can use it. It's pretty hard to miss. It's not the orange glow.
Not sure about a video. But the town is more a reference to one in DQB1 than a continuation. Given that DQB2 takes place in a timeline where DQB1 wouldn't have happened. DQ2 takes place after the good ending of DQ1. DQB1 takes place after the bad ending. The legendary builder mentioned is not the character from DQB1. I'm not sure who it is though.
Can anyone explain to me how the boundaries of the town's work exactly?
Is there a boundary on my main island?
I know there was one on the farming island because the music would change.

What exactly do they mean by "fix the mine" in the second island? I got to the first warp point down in the mine but dont see any more spots to go deeper with the bombs, is there something I need to do first, or did i simply miss a wall somewhere?
You should complete the quests they give you. Early on it's stuff like blow up the walls and fix the mining cart tracks, and bring ore to the blacksmith. Look on your map for the orange dots.
I actually like the rustic mountain river valley just as it is, but now it's got stupid blotches of grass because it's required that I'll have to clean up later when I build a proper village there. Which I will because it's a cute little area.
I currently have no orange markers on my maps. I have only made it to the first warp point in the upper levels and the only missions I have a re to fix the tunnels and build the bar which I cant do without iron ore.
I feel like I forgot something important from last night when I played, I do remember blowing up some walls and fixing tracks back to the start of the mines though.
EDIT: just figured it out, I was missing one cup of the drink for the bar to finish one of the non main quests that opened up some new ones.

The optimal field layout for tomatoes is the same as the optimal field layout for cabbages, just add a planting pole. They don't actually need the strips of water to grow, fwiw. That's something optional that's for some reason introduced at the same time as tomatoes. If you have farmer NPC types living in your town they will water the crops for you.
The only plants I've run into so far with additional "planting conditions" (which you can see in the Scarecrow seed menu) are ones that need to be planted in a flooded field.
Who is industrialising their villages? The space seems so tight you're forced a little bit to trade space for buildings/fields. first area at least seems to have more space than I expected around the back near the spring
Hmm weird thanks.
Few more basic questions
- Do the villagers ever harvest themselves or is that always down to me?
- any info on how far from fields chests need to be forbidden me to put seeds on to auto plant?
- same for the kitchen - do I need to put harvested stuff in the kitchen chest or just in a chest near a field?

Wait... stackable slime was only a preorder bonus for digital purchase if you got the bundle on switch? So if you used a voucher to preorder just the game, you missed out? Or am I missing something?
Also, this is the first game I can remember that makes my docked switch sound like a jet engine/PS4 pro.

Nope, I used a voucher on the base game and got the stackable slimes together with a bunch of other stuff.
They'll appear as a recipe in the workbench you get when you go back to Isle of Awakening.
Gonna pick the game up for sure now that I got extra money, debating on system pretty heavily though. Quick question, I know multiplayer is pretty much just isle of awakening but do monster attacks and stuff still happen? Or is there any kind of danger? Or are there other things you can do in co-op?
How many story islands are there? I just started on
, is this the last one?
I'm honestly getting burned out on story stuff in this game, there's so much text. I might take a break and focus on building up the IoA.
Moonbrooke

That's the last island, yeah... but you're still a ways from the end.
After Moonbrooke comes a hellish underworld area that basically plays out like an island - and is as long as one - where you do missions for monsters and build up a spaceship base.
Does anyone know why my people won't sit on their stools when having lunch? I made a dining room, made the tables a dinner table, set a dinner bowl on top of it and a bread basket and while they rush to the table they just stand on the side, next to the stools or stand on them instead of sitting on them having a quiet lunch.
Any tips for how to get the guys on the second island fed? First was easy cause you have hundreds of crops and someone cooks them and everyone gets them out of the chest by themselves, but here it's not so easy to have food, don't even know if they take them out of the mushroom kitchen chest.
The first Explorer Isle I forget the name (costs 50 gratitude to unlock) has big tree enemies and they drop a couple acorns a lot. I used them as they are the best option I've found (about to start 2nd story island)
Oddly enough I just posted about something relevant to this. Make a simple kitchen. 3 bonfires and a chest inside of it. Throw in some raw meat, cactus slices, vineberries, etc. They will cook them. I came back and saw some of them standing at the chest and eating from it. I did only notice this after I built a place for them to eat but I don't know if that is related or not.
I wonder if you can put a nameplate in there so that way they dont do it
Just noticed all of them sitting in the bar and everyone asking for food, my screen was full of text. :D Totally ignored it so far on the second island. But I had some food items in the kitchen chest. Weird.
Thats worth a shot. I wonder if you can put it directly onto a chest. But the issue would be that they can't take out the food and cook it to begin with instead of protecting them from raiding cooked food to eat. There must be some solution to mass cooking or automated cooking
Lol I didnt know they would directly ask for it. It would be nice if they could gather a little food on their own.
I went to someone else's island and he had so much stuff that i swear it was in the single digits. It was amazing but made me wonder how it was playable. On base ps4
I'm not the best to answer as I picked up a Patriot 128GB from my local Fry's but it wasn't a U3 which I think is the fastest. But after moving the game from the SD to the internal storage, I didn't notice any improvement in the load speed. It is an 'A1' card, if that means anything. I am curious if others have noticed better load speeds with U3 cards though. I'm guessing it's prob not much of a difference since the U speed refers to write speed and for the most part we're more concerned with read speed which this card is 90MB/sec.

Am i missing something on Sunny Shores? More than half my list is still active and i've explores the whole island..
Started this up on our PS4 early this afternoon. Spent about an hour or so playing and got to the first main island. I see improvements already to the formula, and looking at the trophy list, I'm glad there are no speed run trophies to concern myself with this time around.
- They will harvest things. This is a quest goal on the first island iirc, and an optional tablet goal on your home island, very easy to get it unlocked if you just keep farming different crop types at home. There's also an easy way to stop them from harvesting and planting in general, remove the Scarecrow from the field. Useful if you're low on seeds.
- Store seeds in the player inventory or put them in a bedroom with a (non-Farmer character tagged, obviously) nameplate to keep NPCs out. Alternatively, you could not assign the Scarecrow in your field, then you do all the planting.
- Either way works well in my experience. The NPCs who cook food will generally prefer the chest in the kitchen, but they will absolutely walk a short distance to cook your crops if there are any in the field chests.
nvm it was way underground. forgot I can use the flute to check off scavenger hunt items!
Bought the game on the switch. Framerate being halved sucks considering it plays so very nice and smooth on ps4 but portability won out for me. Tempted by the season pass, seeing as how it's apparently all available right now for Switch users? lol
So I talked to the King and he said this: "This world is no longer a mere illusion! But it seems our realm differs somewhat from the place they call the 'real world'... But something tells me there may yet be some means of linking this world to other lands and other times..."
Sounds interesting. Sequel hints?
There probably is, though I imagine it's much bigger. By the way music seems to start playing once your settlement is "good enough". For me it was after I built a restaurant.
There's music for special structures like restaurants, hotels, bars, castles, spa resorts. Some of them get a special icon on the map too.
