VGChartz’s Evan Norris: “Generally speaking, Dragon Quest VII doesn’t need a lot of help getting people excited. Thanks to an emotionally powerful narrative, an extensive class system, and an obscene amount of content not to mention art from Akira Toriyama and music by Koichi Sugiyama, two masters of their respective crafts the PlayStation role-playing game has won over millions of fans. Not content to rely on nostalgia alone, however, Square Enix has deployed its hype train to alert as many people as possible about the special qualities of the 2000 game, and how those qualities have been alternately preserved and enhanced in its upcoming remake Dragon Quest VII Reimagined. The hype train’s first stop: Manhattan during New York Comic Con last month. I was lucky enough to be on hand for an exclusive 45-minute demo.”
