    Dragon Quest Heroes offers very little in terms of enjoyment. While the combat is the only thing keeping its head slightly above water, the story is forgettable at best, the soundtrack is dull, and the dialogue is embarrassingly overdramatic.

    The cluelessness-as-heroism and over-the-top fighting don’t fulfill or complement the infectiously positive tone.

    If you are a Dynasty Warriors fan, I would give this a 7.5-8. It has a lot of RPG elements that fans of the DW genre may not like. Still, my personal opinion is that this is the best DW like game to date. It's better than Hyrule Warriors for sure.

    If you are a fan of Action RPGs, I would say rent it. You may just fall in love with it, and fall in love with Dragon Quest.

    If you don't like Dragon Quest, Dynasty Warriors, or Action RPGs...how did you even find out about this game? Regardless, give it a pass. You're probably Tom McShea from IGN.    … Full Review »
