unlabelledView post →Happy Kasen Thursday! The current vibe is thinking about Dragon Quest Builders! ngl Builders was an awesome game! Building a base was an absolute joy, and exploring the worlds was super fun! It had some comfy vibes as well 😊 I hope you have a wonderful day, I send love and positivity your way 💛☺️
unlabelledView post →The next Fallout Game (whenever that will be) should look to the Dragon Quest Builders series for inspiration.
unlabelledView post →Pokemon Pokopia has the largest development team in Omega Force history working on it. Several Dragon Quest Builders 2 developers are on the team, including the game director and art director. automaton-media.com/en/news/poke...
unlabelledView post →The new Zelda game reads to me like someone said "what if the Cane of Somaria did Dragon Quest Builders," and I'm into it
unlabelledView post →Pokopia is the best Switch 2 exclusive so far. And also the best Pokemon game in a long time. And also the best Dragon Quest Builders game (which was a series comprised of the best single-player 3D voxel games). Very good
unlabelledView post →Pokemon Pokopia comes out in 2 weeks! As a huge fan of Dragon Quest Builders, Im very excited for this game ✨
unlabelledView post →I have been telling my daughter this to hype her up since Dragon Quest Builders 2 is her favorite game that isn't Roblox or Minecraft
unlabelledView post →As a new gamer the only game I've truly been into (so far) is "Dragon Quest Builders 2". I assumed there were many more of these type of games but I was WRONG. I finally found another that actually scratches the dqb2 itch but I'm kinda annoyed even my video game tastes zero in on a niche genre lol
unlabelledView post →Pokemon: "no one is allowed to use summoning-to-battle mechanics anymore!" Also Pokemon: "Our new game is Minecraft and Dragon Quest Builders and Harvest Moon and Animal Crossing but with a Pokemon-themed coat of paint!"
unlabelledView post →I will say that IMO Dragon Quest Builders is what Minecraft should have been from the start, and Pokopia is now the ultimate form of that. It’s a “cozy” game without combat, but it’s still got the direction, while still having the freedom, even though the freedom slowly opens up over time.
unlabelledView post →Between new Femblem (which serves the dual purpose of being a new game I want and making everyone else mad) and Pokemon Dragon Quest Builders and Mega Raichu I'm happy they're targeting so much of this shit directly at me it seems lol
unlabelledView post →Shhhh Mosslax is sleeping 🌱💤 I am so incredibly excited for Pokopia! 😭 What are your thoughts on the extended trailer?? I'm so hype for the game because I loved Dragon Quest Builders and mixing that with Pokemon characters is like a dream come true! 🥺 #pokopia #pokemon #mosslax
unlabelledView post →Yeah, I thought about getting a Switch 2 for Pokopia, just to scratch that Dragon Quest Builders itch, but I've deeply hated every Pokémon game I've played. I don't want to spend THAT much money to be disappointed yet again. Where is Dragon Quest Builders 3? Wheeeeeeere?
unlabelledView post →This is my second time playing this blocky little fever dream, and honestly, it still feels like Minecraft went on holiday to Japan, discovered JRPGs, and came back wearing a slime‑shaped hat. I’ve also played Dragon Quest Builders 2, which is basically this game after it’s had therapy, a skincare routine, and a social life, but that doesn’t mean the first one isn’t worth your time. The game is split into chapters, which is a polite way of saying: “Here’s an island, here’s a quest, now build…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It is such an amazing game with so much to do, so much to encounter, and a lot of fun to have- That being said, whatever smooth-brained developer decided a item placement limitation was a smart move on a building sim, should probably reconsider their line of work, 16 hours into an intense playthrough, decorating, and building to specific measures, and when trying to put down some stairs "Item placement limitation reached" or somesuch message. I hadn't even built 5 to 6 other room recipes yet.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So I got Pokemon Pokopia, I figured why not get a chill game. Any ways this is my attempt at making Julie. Allot of people keep comparing the game to Animal Crossing but they are wrong this is clearly Dragon Quest Builders just slightly different here and there
unlabelledView post →...was kinda just talking shit here but I'm getting pretty enamored with it as a take. What is Dragon Quest Builders if not a mom game?
unlabelledView post →2 days! 😭 I truly hope I like the game as much as I'm hyped for it haha But I fully trust the team behind Dragon Quest Builders so... I'm sure it will be great! #Pokopia #Pokemon
unlabelledView post →Dragon Quest Minecraft is a neat little spin off all about crafting and building towns for your little NPC buddies. There are monsters to slay but no level ups to be had. You'll craft gear to stand a better chance against them and as you progress your town there will be defense events against groups of various monsters where some of your more capable NPCs will aid you. It's a fun game but quite repetitive as every time you clear an area you will move to a new one just to start all over again.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The spin-off model is nothing new to Dragon Quest. Some, like Dragon Quest Monsters, borrow from the main series, while others, like the Heroes franchise, were hugely popular due to the Mosou-like gameplay. The fact that Dragon Quest Builders is heavily referencing Minecraft may not come as a huge surprise, but it turns out that this is a more linear and limited role-playing game than expected. Additional Info: Content & Value I completed Dragon Quest Builders in 41.7 hours after…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I played the hell out of this on console and the PC port is FANTASTIC. Didn't expect so many QoL changes like big bashes, better inventory, bigger block stacks and removal of durabilities. I got pulled back by the Pokopia hype (except I cannot excuse buying a 500$ console for a 70$ game) and DQB is still just as fun as it was before, if not more now. For those not in the know-- It's not Minecraft-y in the slightest outside utilizing a grid/block based environment. It's DQ1 in essence and very…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Guys, I did it. I finished Dragon Quest Builders 2 before June officially ends 🫡 Now, I can peacefully focus on other games 😂
unlabelledView post →I have never played a Dragon Quest Builders game so I wanna know: is it worth playing both or is one considered the “better” version?
unlabelledView post →Ignore the play time, I actually had this on switch. This game has been fun enough for me to buy it again on a different console. That should attest to how fun it is. Still waiting for number 3 :(
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dragon Quest Builders 2 is a good game!!! I love my son Marloth!!! This is the best use of high fives I've ever seen in a game!!!!! I swear I will finish all of these, but I beat the main plot earlier today and I have to Yell About It Somehow #sketch #wip
unlabelledView post →Amusingly, playing the Dragon Quest III, I and II remakes, in that order set us up perfectly for Dragon Quest Builders 2. We have unintentionally stumbled upon a video game RPG order that is absolutely ludicrous, yet with a shockingly coherent narrative through line
unlabelledView post →Replaying Dragon Quest Builders 2 as my like chill game and I thought it was funny that I didn’t get the reference at first
unlabelledView post →What if Minecraft has a story, a structure and missions and was fun?
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Can someone please explain to me the hype behind Pokémon Pokopia? Like, I look at the game, and all I see is Dragon Quest Builders, Minecraft and Animal Crossing just with Pokemon, and I honestly don't understand the appeal at all.
unlabelledView post →Pokémon Pokopia update! Starting the Eeveelutions collection with Sylveon and Espeon 🩷💜 The game continues to charm me and absorb my time. Also really has me hoping that we’ll get a Dragon Quest Builders 3 someday 🎮
unlabelledView post →Ill never rest. Pokopia is THE BEST OF 50% pokemon 45% dragon quest builders 2 and 5% animal crossing If you love this game as much as I do *please* give DQB2 a try. Hell if you dont have a switch 2 and want to play pokopia PLAY DRAGON QUEST BUILDERS 2 ok ty internet void
unlabelledView post →It's really funny seeing folks realize that Pokopia is gonna be good, lol. It's the next game from the Dragon Quest Builders team! Builders 2 was peak! Play Builders 2!!
unlabelledView post →They made a Pokemon game that is both Dragon Quest Builders and Viva Piñata. This game was made in a lab for me
unlabelledView post →So I got that Pokemon Pokopia game aka Dragon Quest Builders 3
unlabelledView post →NEED TO KNOW INFO: This game (and franchise) is probably the best "Minecraft clone" out on the market. It is a game with points and end goals to meet, setting it apart in its own right. You will spend HOURS trying to cram as much stuff into that 32x32 town square, trying to make it look like an old school RPG setting type town. PROS: *Dragon Quest lore now and always has been one of the best (and most family friendly) settings *art style and aesthetics are all great *functionality overall…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I got her Dragon Quest Builders 2 as a gift, and she's enjoying the game a lot, but the multiple hugs and thank you's I've gotten over it since Sunday suggest there's more than a JRPG Minecraft clone behind it.
unlabelledView post →Dragon Quest Builders 2 is 50% off on steam today! Pokopia's boundless charm makes it special, but as a town building game, Builders 2 is still streets ahead, and it's a great RPG to boot! If you're enjoying Pokopia, definitely give it a try! store.steampowered.com/app/1072420/...
unlabelledView post →Seeing everyone say that Pokopia is "Dragon Quest Builders 3" is nice, but honestly if you want a good DQB Experience GO PLAY DRAGON QUEST BUILDERS 2 10/10 GAME!
unlabelledView post →I, like Tom, has a wife who's favorite game of all time is Dragon Quest Builders 2 and stopping to talk about that meant something to me
unlabelledView post →Absolutely Great Game But only an alright port to PC... First of all let me preface this, I already played this game through to its completion a few years back on the Nintendo Switch and had an absolute blast with it. I decided to pick this up on Steam again so I can play it again and also play it on my Steam Deck. With that being clear, I have experience in both the original release and this port of it and for everyone who doesn’t know, this is a port to PC from a mobile port so bear that…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Been watching the partner play Pokopia and it's interesting seeing some the helpful things the game lost compared to Dragon Quest Builders 2, like the super easy warp system within each map and *very big* shared bag.
unlabelledView post →Still yelling about how Dragon Quest Builders 2 is a good game and how Marloth is the best!!! But this time I have more polished art!!! #Art #Fanart #DQB2
unlabelledView post →I was cautiously optimistic about Pokopia when they announced it because I wasn't sure exactly how Dragon Quest Builders it was going to be but this game is 100% just Dragon Quest Builders 3 on just about every level. miracles are real
unlabelledView post →Building roofs for your townspeople is the ultimate litmus test for whether a person is capable of self-governing. To build a roof is an easy, convenient task and one which we all recognize as the correct, appropriate thing to do. To build a roof is objectively right. There are no situations other than dire emergencies in which a person is not able to build a roof. Simultaneously, it is not illegal to not build a roof. Therefore the roof presents itself as the apex example of whether a person…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pokemon Pokopia currently stands at 90 on MetaCritic (before I just jinxed it)! Turns out all the Dragon Quest Builders fans were right. I expect this game to have very long legs throughout Switch 2’s life.

unlabelledView post →"Body Type A" and "Body Type B" is an automatic negative review and refund. It's as if "male" and "female" were swears words... I don't care if the rest of the game is good or bad, I refuse to support this nonsense.

unlabelledView post →After buying & playing Dragon Quest Builders 2 to completion, I had wanted to play the original game as well. However, I don't own a Switch. Imagine my surprise when this game released on Steam! Unfortunately, it also released with "Body Type A" and "Body Type B" censorship, instead of "Male" and "Female." This was a change that none of the Builders 2 releases had, nor did the original Builders release on the Switch (confirmed via Youtube) -- all of those releases had "Male" and "Female." With…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I would do that 1 like = 1 game I enjoy, but every post after Dragon Quest Builders 2 would be Miitopia :^)
unlabelledView post →Tried getting back into Dragon Quest Builders 2 again. As much as like the game, holy shit the chapters drag on. >.> Might just get Stawdew or something.
unlabelledView post →Happy Thursday yomimigos! That really cool building game everyone is playing just got a bunch of updates?! Wow, that's perfect opportunity to play something else entirely!! Let's play Dragon Quest Builders!! I really like the story in this game, and I wanna share it with you! 20:00 ET ⚒️ 21:00 BRT
unlabelledView post →I thought it was just gonna be pokemon Animal Crossing, but this game is actually so Dragon Quest Builders coded.. 🥺 I absolutely adore those games!!
unlabelledView post →Dragon Quest Builders is a unique hybrid of sandbox construction gameplay and traditional role-playing adventure developed and published by Square Enix. Originally released for consoles in 2016 and later brought to PC via Steam, the game revisits the classic world of Alefgard from the very first Dragon Quest, but with a creative twist on its story. In this alternate timeline, the legendary hero who was supposed to defeat the Dragonlord instead accepts the villain’s offer to rule half the world.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game, one of the best ones out there of the franchise. Beautiful and wonderful world building, a must if you love minecraft
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pokopia feels like a game right up my alley though i did love Dragon Quest Builders 2 (I wish they made another)
unlabelledView post →This is a very cute side-game in the Dragon Quest series. It's like Baby's First Minecraft -- in the sense that it is a large open world with crafting elements and blocks that you can mine/place. But it is also an RPG with a concrete beginning/middle/ending, so it tosses up a lot of quests and guardrails to help focus the player along from one story beat to the next. It's not a very difficult game, by my reckoning. But there's always something a little sunny, a little predictable, a little…
