All in all, Dragon Quest XI is about as cookie-cutter a JRPG as you can get, but I'll say two things about that: 1. I'll also say there are some dungeons that feel like they're padded with some meaningless fluff that I wasn't entirely on board with. If there's one thing I wish, I'd say that I wish there were more than two battle tracks, especially considering that neither of the battle tracks are that interesting. The battles were thoroughly fun, if at times a bit grindy. While neither had quite the same level of depth or ambition that Persona 5 did, that never made the game feel shallow or dull. This was strengthened by its wonderfully fun gameplay and stunning art direction. That's when the game's writing clicked and I actually got really on board, despite the fact that it didn't surprise me that much, if ever. I even made the realization early on that almost every character is basically a personified D&D class and has similar ability sets. But what made it click was realizing that it was the closest a game I've played has come to capturing the feel of a D&D game. I'll start off by saying I wasn't impressed by the story at first, as it was very heavy on fantasy tropes and cliches and I predicted almost every major plot point (though there was one move in the second act that I thought was pretty ballsy and didn't really expect). DQXIS has quickly become my top "comfort game", beating out Stardew Valley and Spiritfarer. So once I found out that the definitive edition would feature a fully orchestral score, I was ready to jump right back in. I had a bit of a difficult time getting into the original though due to the grating midi soundtrack. I hadn't played many traditional JRPGs for a long time until I picked up Persona 5, and shortly thereafter the original Dragon Quest XI launched.
