    This game is for 7 year old kids and below at kindergarten level.
    NPC's are super childish and their lame manga-wannabe design is weakly done. English voices are annoying for the intro movies, then become horrible and unbearable for NPCs. Intro is too boring.
    MUSIC IS HORRIBLY BAD, but if only little children play this game, they probably don't care about bad music. Combat is simple,    This game is for 7 year old kids and below at kindergarten level.

    Combat is simple, boring. First monsters - BubbleGum Blobs - were the ones that made me uninstall this game. For kids this is okay.

    There is no 5:4 monitor ratio support, only widescreen and the engine is slow. Not that it matters in this case.

    Anybody, who loves the incomparably amazing story writing of Tactics Ogre with its fantastic musical score and its world's best turn-based tactical battles ==> AVOID Dragon Quest XI AT ALL COSTS!!!!    … Expand

    No free upgrade to XI S on steam, it feels so greedy from SQEX.
    Don't buy this game anymore and wait XI S if you really want it.

    Dragon Quest XI may delight even the staunchest opponents of JRPGs.

    Dragon Quest 11 successfully counts on traditional JRPG virtues in a contemporary look, becoming the best current title of the genre.

    A JRPG for people who haven’t played one in a while, basically. Well-made, but disappointingly safe.
