    Switch port on a PC without the option of upped graphics. Now you can play the game in 4K washed out graphics!

    Just port the inferior version instead of putting effort in making something truly great that makes people WANT to re-buy your port

    And then just put your foot down and delist the original version from being bought at all

    This Definitive Edition is a definitely downgraded version.

    The hardware performance of PC is much better than the PS4 pro, but the definitive edition of PC is ported to the NS version graphics, which is much worse than the PS4.

    This is a definitely mockery of PC users.

    A fantastic version of one of favorite, if not my absolute favorite, games of all time. The NS version of the game, which comes with that delicous extra content, has been ported over beautiful and uprezzed well: the game looks and sounds gorgeous and runs at an excellent uncapped frame rate.

    YES some textures aren't as pretty as the initial PS4 and Steam release. And it is a little annoying that players of the original Steam release cannot simply pay a small upgrade fee and have to rebuy this all over again.

    But those qualms aside, this is still a fantastic port of a fantastic game. If you've never played Dragon Quest? Try the Demo, then buy this game; it's fantastic! :) If you've played Dragon Quest 11 before and are salty about having to rebuy upgrade with worse textures? I won't say you're wrong for feeling that way, but I think that the added content from the NS version of the game combined with better resolution and frame rate -for me personally, as someone who already owned the original Steam and NS releases- makes the rebuy amply worth it. The game runs so unbelievably smooth compared to the Switch version, and sounds and plays so much better than the original Steam release!

    Plus, at least in my own currency, it's only, like, 3 hours of minimum wage work to buy this game if you get it from GreenManGaming. A game this good, even if it's a rebuy, is worth 3 hours wages to me. :)

    But if you disagree, that's fine. To each their own. Just don't be a butt to other people about it.    … Expand
