I hope too that they don’t “remake” with the Dragon Quest 7 engine, because the 6th game is almost as beautiful as Chrono Trigger/Final Fantasy VI..

Semi 3d just doesn’t work well for me as real 2d backgrounds.

Loved DQ4, eagerly anticipating DQ5 & DQ6.

I wouldn’t mind if they ported DQ7 down the line either…

Hmm… I get the feeling that even if DQVI comes out after DQIX in Japan, we’ll see DQVI before DQIX in English. I just hope my feeling is wrong because I want them to put as much effort into this as they do to all the first DQ remakes.

@FStubbs, it’ll undoubtedly be on the same engine. But (imo), DQV DS looks better than DQVI SNES did so I think it’s possible for this remake to look better if they put in the effort.

I was hoping it wouldn’t be so soon, tbh. IMO DQ6 on the SNES looked better than DQ7’s engine, so seeing DQ6 done in DQ7’s engine (if it’s finished this quickly) will be a bit of a letdown, though I guess at least we’ll be able to play it legally.
