Dragon Quest Builders 2 is better than ever!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First off, before I begin the review, I just want to let everyone know that if you own a Nintendo Switch and are curious about this game, there is a free demo on the Nintendo eShop you can download AND on the main menu of the main game there is an option to "Continue from Demo" to bring your progress over. I absolutely loved the original Dragon Quest Builders. I finished it 100% and loved every chapter. However, starting Dragon Quest Builders 2, you immediately see just how many quality-of-life changes they made to the gameplay that makes it a much better experience! To quickly sum the new things up: - There is now a stamina meter for your character to run. - You can play online with friends (must have Nintendo Switch online membership and reach a certain point in the single player campaign for this feature to unlock). - Your weapons/tools are no longer breakable. - You have a companion that travels with you helping you defeat enemies and pick up items. - Your tools/weapons are assigned to different buttons now. - There is a robust photo editor where you can take pictures and post them on the DQB2 message boards (think Super Mario Odyssey photo editor). - You can upload your creations as well as visit other people's islands to see their creations through the DQB2 message board. - Your hunger meter is now a percentage (0-100% as opposed to five slices of bread) - Defeating enemies still give you items but it also gives you experience you use to level up you and your companion. - There is DLC on the way that adds even more items and quests for you to enjoy. - Physical version has stackable slime DLC code inside AND a reversible cover that matches the artstyle of the first one! (see photo) Essentially, if you enjoyed Dragon Quest Builders, you will LOVE Dragon Quest Builders 2! It plays more like an RPG than the first one and you'll find yourself constantly building new structures! The story keeps you playing and the quests are fun as they reward you with new items to craft. The writing is also FANTASTIC...the characters are hilarious and the dialogue is cheeky! I hope this review helped you out. I am still currently playing through this (have been for about 10 hours now) and have been addicted every second. If you are on the fence, again try the eShop demo...you may be surprised at how much you enjoy it! :)

Extremely charming, wholesome gameplay
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I didn't think I would like this game as much as I have, but it's been a delight to play. The world feels so alive because of the inhabitants which each have a unique personality. The monsters aren't all evil. It feels so nice to build things instead of worrying about minmaxing a character or something. If you like RPGs and don't hate building games, I think this is a great buy.

So much better than Minecraft!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I could never git into Minecraft since there was almost no story and no goals to drive me to play the game. This game fixes all that with a great story and adds Sims like behavior with having to keep the hero fed and keep the villagers happy with making them bedrooms, kitchens and dining rooms. I love being able to build the buildings and little resorts for the villagers and it's great to show off to friends and family.

Its a great game
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great game and the story will keep on getting better. The graphics are breathtaking as well as the sound. The big plus is that ever a bit of playing you get the option to build an item that will let you leave your map and view other peoples maps and you can destroy some of the items there and when you go back to your map you will have the recipe on how to build that item you destroyed.
