Has anyone played this game? These days I don't get as much time as I'd like to play video games, but after finishing Persona 5 I picked up playing Unchartered 4 again (cause it came with my PS4 when I bought it), beat it in a week, and I decided out of the 5 other PS4 games I've bought in the last year to play DragonQuest builders. I'm a long time fan of the Dragon Warrior/Quest series and this is a building simulation game, which I love since I'm a long time fan of games like SimCity.
So I started playing it and I'm having fun. A lot of fun. I'm going crazy building and my only complaint is it seems more geared to a younger audience because it's pretty easy. Then I realize that I've been fucking up. Apparently there's a "light border" where the map is lighter and anything you build outside of that border doesn't count and your villagers won't go there. Fuck.
But oh well, right? It still sucks because that area is actually pretty small and you can barely see the "light, especially once you start building on top of it. The music also changes when you cross, which gets incredibly annoying.
I soon realize that because I built over the line monsters basically appear right in my fucking city because that's the point they generate. If your city is there, they'll still appear there. But most of them I fight off without doing too much damage and I can rebuild in 10 - 15 mins.
Well I get to the last part and it's a gauntlet of fighting monsters after monsters until a big golem shows up. I realize he's going to do some damage to my city so I'm prepared...
But then... but then the motherfucker appears and in an instant, just by appearing, literally wipes out everything I built outside of the light border. My entire city, ruined. God fucking dammit.
So anyway, I've decided I'm done with DQ Builders. Apparently after you beat the boss you start building somewhere else anyway.
