What is Reddit's opinion of DRAGON QUEST V?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

As a person who played Dragon Quest V on the my Android smartphone, I'm really excited for this. It looks incredible; I really can't wait.

For the ones who have never played the game before, please try out the mobile version.

If you have any relatively modern phone (i.e. past 2012, which you should have if you can post on reddit and have internet access), it's $10 USD on phone app stores.

Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.square_enix.android_googleplay.dq5

Apple App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/dragon-quest-v/id933113994

Perfectly working ports that are 100% just as good as DS versions; I personally played DQ4 on my phone for the party chat and it was honestly better than when I played DQ5/DQ6 on my DS, just because of the convenience of having it on your phone, since people generally have their phones 24/7. Not worse in any way, and definitely cheaper for sure.

Linkme: Dragon Quest V, Dragon Quest VIII

Although Dragon Quest VIII is way better on PS2, it's still might be worth a shot on Android

Edit: link for DQ5 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.square_enix.android_googleplay.dq5

I downloaded here and it worked

it's also available on android

Sigh. Look I’m always for anti-spoiler, but this is promotional text. The app store descriptions and pictures already point out the 3 generation stuff, so OP already saw that highly likely. And it’s not different in old game cases, here you go:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.square_enix.android_googleplay.dq5&hl=de&gl=US -> Look at first picture what it says, same for description (also in apples app store, you can look up the same description)

https://www.mobygames.com/game/dragon-quest-v-hand-of-the-heavenly-bride/cover-art/gameCoverId,195552/ -> compared to what i wrote this Nintendo DS cover even spills plot points, not to mention that the front cover of the game always shows kids and wife be it on physical game covers or digital front pictures like in app stores.

More over here on official site of the game, everything simply promotional text, i did not spoil any plot points -> https://www.jp.square-enix.com/dqsp/dq5/en/

There is a mobile version:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.square_enix.android_googleplay.dq5&hl=en_AU

Because in the case of DQ1-8, excepting 7...

They're all on mobile. If you can get it there, it directly supports the publisher.

If you can get it NEW from the SE store (or anywhere else), it supports the publisher.

But if you get it used? You're giving some schmuck $20.

I personally say go mobile, but in the case of DQV, it's rather...

Unique.

Unlike DQIV, which has the party chat added in mobile; or DQVI, which has the dream-junk added into the game proper without WiFi...

DQV is the exact same on the DS and mobile, content-wise. I recommend mobile because of portability and publisher-need, but I digress.
