Dragon Quest Builders 2 (Nintendo Switch)

I loved this game! To anyone who is a fan of the mainline Dragon Quest games who may be on the fence about this title, it is a great game and has many of the great qualities of the mainline games, with fresh new twists.The title says what the game is about, building. It has a minecraft-like style and elements, but I much prefer this graphically and stylistically. It looks nice and the camera controls are easy to use. The storyline is interesting. The building elements provide endless amounts of fun and creativity. The battles are quick and don't drag on. The resource gathering/grinding vs progression is beautifully balanced. Allowing you to do a little grinding for resources you may need to avoid things being too easy, but also not forcing you to take hours to complete tasks or find things you want/need.I had a great time with this game, I was sceptical as I am not a Minecraft fan so I wasn't sure if this style of dragon quest would be for me. I decided to give it a go, and this definitely did not disappoint. I have 70 hours of playtime so far, and I am definitely not done with this game yet. I have definitely gotten my money's worth in playtime. I highly recommend this game, it was a wonderful refreshing experience with a Dragon Quest title.

The characters are loveable and add lots of charm which this game has in abundance. You can pace the game at times but there are some set pieces which take away your control there are a few that irk as there is no escape. At other times you can knock off lots of building works.I love this game despite its many flaws which occur when you leave the game in standby easier with the annoying load times, but leaving it on standby means the text (which is to small) disappears have way through the dialogue. Closing game resolves this. Laying different items has to be done with facing it the right way, I've not worked out yet if you can change the direction whilst holding the item. The graphics are smallish but perfect with a colour and charm that is very appealing to see whilst playing. Lots of depth and gameplay you will go through it several times if you enjoy playing it.

DQB2 builds upon the first game to make a very solid sequel

Well, what an improvement on the first game! If like me you found the first one lacking a certain something, give the sequel a go. It is set after the events of the most recent dragon quest game, and it won't matter if you haven't played any in the series. It is in my opinion one of the best rpg games availble for the switch, second only to Zelda Breath of the Wild.My life has been on hols since buying it, the housework isn't done, the dog isn't walked, my friends have forgotten what I look like. Lol. Only kidding. But be warned, this game will eat huge chunks of your time. It is hard enough to be a challenge, without being so hard you give up. I have sworn at the tv a few times when battling the level bosses, but they all were defeated on the second or third attempt. The open world is vast, the story is gripping, the dialogue amusing, and the monsters challenging. You can build to your hearts content if you complete the explorer shores challenges, which give you unlimited resources.If you like Zelda or the other dragon quest games I would expect you would like this game. I would give it 10 stars if I could.

Love this game! I’ve been looking for a Minecraft-like game but with more story and here it is. A JRPG with a full story but also building mechanics. You also use barely any material to make blocks which cuts out literally hundreds of hours of grinding materials. Brilliant game, well worth the price.

An excellent sequel to an already brilliant game. The blend of building and RPG elements are really fun, with loads of materials to find, modify and piece together. You can create a whole island, exactly the way you want it, and you can do it alone, or with friends!One to consider if you enjoy Minecraft or Portal Knights, the guided, mission driven style makes it a slightly different beast in feel but it's just as addictive as they can be. Farming, mining, building, cooking, combat and a myriad of other things make this one to enjoy for kids and adults. Fans of the Dragon Quest RPGs will also love the little details as each enemy, character and environmental style are all taken from the beloved franchise. Well worth a look!

This is a great integration of minecraft like building with a good story. You have the freedom to build, mine and fight as you want, although there is a lack of sub-terranean features. A lot of the story building is blueprint based, which ends up being interesting due to the designs you are following. The story click-though screens and reward-tune delays can be a bit tedious, but you always want to know what happens next so they add a reasonable pacing to the game. There are quite a few building side quests, which you are free to complete how and when you want, and the game is quite intelligent in figuring out when you have done them.

As a big fan of the first one, I knew I'd like this, but it's way better than I ever thought it would be.The controls are tighter, visuals are better and there's a far better structure to it. Also, less busywork!Don't dismiss this as just a minecraft clone, even though building is core. It's far better than that, it's a proper Dragon Quest RPG with well written dialog and a fun story.

I'm very pleased with my purchase and have played this for hours. So many things to do and so much fun! Highly recommend this game!!

Me gustó, es enorme y con mucho contenido

Cooles Spiel mit vielen ansprechenden Aufgaben. Viele Stunden Spielspaß garantiert.

Ho acquistato la versione Regno Unito con un pò di timore per la lingua, però si è settata automaticamente all'italiano.Gioco bello e rilassante!

Très bon jeu
