However, the lack of activities in free roam is a huge turn off for me. Some areas will be locked/blocked depending on your main story progression but most of them are available for your adventures. During your free roams, you are pampered with a huge semi open world where you can walk from one map to another.
Huge maps await those who set forth into DQH2. I actually like that little mash up between the two. It’s not bad however, the similarity is minimal (but obvious), the Dragon Quest identity is still intact don’t worry. To begin with, I would say DQH2 reminded me of Dynasty Warriors, like some elements in-game where a new enemy group have just spawned in the battlefield and how your allies are scattered around the map and you are required to aid them before they fall. I’ve spent close to 40 hours now in this game, I’ve completed the main story and is looking forward to explore its post-game contents. There are some improvement from the first game and some notable new features that I really liked to see. Dragon Quest Heroes II (DQH2) – “Twin Kings and the Prophecy’s End” is a sequel to the first Dragon Quest Heroes (DQH1) in 2015.
