Video: Dragon Quest Swords Gameplay Bonanza!

Yay for mornings when new media comes out for a game you just can't stop thinking about! And double yay when it's a veritable smörgåsbord! We get some much needed looks at battle in the upcoming Square-Enix Wii game, and that can only be a good thing. I really don't see how this game would not come out in the US, but all the media has been a been a good sign.

Fighting the little baddies looks like it can be a little annoying at times, as the player often seems to be slicing at enemies only to completely miss. This could be a problem with the wii-motes sensitivity, or just a challenge of the game. I did notice that there seems to be a focal point that the player can implement, but that would often be impractical considering the speed with which these monsters flit about. One touch that I quite like is the inclusion of vocals with the bad guys. Not only do the bosses seem engage in a little tete-a-tete before starting the fight, but you can hear orcs grunting and snorting during battle sequences as well. I still can't tell if moving in the forests and dungeons is more rail-shooter than player controlled, though.

Let's hope we get this game before the end of the year, at least. Unless someone wants a taste of my rapier. Other videos at the jump!
