Title: Warning: Excessive Patience Required
Product review: This is a long, rewarding, and extremely old-school game. It reminds more of Dragon Quest IV than even the more recent games in the series (V and VI). Carried over from VI is the excellent job system.Nothing happens quickly in DWVII. The pacing I think is what bothers so many about the game. It can seem tedious if looking towards the invariable end. But if taken as a journey the general wandering around and loot gathering is exactly what you remember from every DQ game before and since.For an entry point into the series DQVIII would be the better game. For the hard-core gamer willing to invest the 100+ hours to explore this game at the proper leisurely pace, the investment may be well worth it.
