The Bottom Line:

"Almost, but not quite"

bein ga loyal "dragon quest" series fan i have purchased this game hoping for an immersive sotry with a new twist on combat in the series. well, as most ppl wiht half a brain can see that the combat has taken to a new level but, as for the story a total letdown.thi sis the sotry the queend is sick, she leaves the caslte, her son and u go after her, she has a mask on, u get mor eppl in ur partry, ther's a tower with mirros on it, a evil guy is resurrected. big whoop we've all seen games with storylines like this(only this game takes the story to an all time low.) SQUARE ENIX tries to make up with the shallow boring storyline with a new combat system. now dont get me wrong the combat is fun(at least for a while until u finally figure it out that the combat is dull and repetitive.) i like games where u can temper and upgrade weapons idk y it just a thing i like. the weapons dont have may attributes fire, lightning, ice and, shadow. now thats just dissapointing. only 4 attributes. what about earth,water, air, and the other elements of nature. of the dragon quest series my favorite has been "dragon quest VIII: the legend of the cursed king" now that a good game. it had a fnatastic storyline, a variety of monsters, bonus features, optional side quests, and its a game that takes up a good amount of time to complete, so it is a good investment, since it wont b a waste of money. i hate games that u buy and beat them in like 1 or 2 days after buying it those r a waste of money.

P.S. my friend robbie says "dragon quest swords: the masked queen and the tower of mirrors is awesome."
