我该如何评价DQ7RE这个游戏呢？

这游戏玩起来的体感就像你玩文明6，第一次选了俄罗斯，开局生在西伯利亚冻土上，BGM是《卡林卡》，首都叫圣彼得堡，旁边给你放了一本俄罗斯历史小故事，写的怪好看的！

第二次你选了匈牙利，开局一跳水一看还是西伯利亚冻土上，BGM依然是《卡林卡》，首都叫圣马加什堡，旁边给你放了一本匈牙利历史小故事，写的怪好看的！

第三次你选了拜占庭，开局一跳水一看又是在西伯利亚冻土上，BGM还是《卡林卡》，首都叫圣巴兹尔堡，旁边给你放了一本拜占庭历史小故事，写的怪好看的！

第四次你选了古埃及——
哦是的，你一跳水一看还是西伯利亚冻土上，BGM还是《卡林卡》，首都那肯定是叫圣拉美西斯堡，然后又给你放了一本古埃及历史小故事，写的怪好看的！

嗯好的，我现在读完了这些历史小故事，我认识了彼得大帝、马加什一世、巴兹尔二世、拉美西斯二世，我觉得这些故事都挺有意思的。

但问题来了： 我到底为什么连续玩了四遍俄罗斯？为什么每一局开局都是西伯利亚冻土上，放的都是哥萨克小曲儿啊？我在玩的是哪一个文明啊，好难猜啊！


快速总结，连写都懒得多给它写字：

✔ 美术风格优秀，人偶风踩在我的审美上，鸟山明系设计看着很舒服。
✔ 叙事不错，每个岛都是用最简单又童话风的的文字讲最普世、最深刻的社会与人性母题，这点是我个人很喜欢的DQ的风格。

❌ 场景与玩法高度同质化，连皮都不换。1998年的仙剑一都知道好几个地图和战斗BGM轮着换，你DQ7RE换都不换的册那！
❌ UI与流程缺乏现代化优化。明明都重置了，都做了自动战斗和越级瞬杀了，大部分时候还是坐牢。

如果这游戏原版就这样，或者说DQ系列就这样，它就是不能改，只要改了就失去受众，那我只能说难怪某些日厂游戏只能成为小圈子的结晶粉自嗨。

毕竟是后来出的游戏，比1/2/3重制好玩太多，但跑图（跑腿）催眠，地图切换非要黑一下屏真让我着急，剧情时好时坏，点名批评 王子离队的神经病操作 ，玩下来感觉自己是无情的舔宝箱机器。
好吧但我会永远等待ff6重制成这样的一天…

I might undo this some day, if I ever return to finish VII properly. But after a month's break from it in order to tackle other games, I find myself with next to no drive to come back; that, to me, spells a more damning reason to thumb this down than anything I could provide by typing. Even so, I'll give it my best attempt.

The best way I can describe Dragon Quest VII (Reimagined, specifically, as it's the only version I've played) is toothless. Dragon Quest as a series has always been comfortable; sweet and hearty, with plenty of meat on the bone to back it up. VII R, on the other hand, is painfully threadbare. It takes so long to just unlock the ability to change jobs, but it doesn't really matter because, even on the absolute maxed out difficulty with every setting working against you, the game is still pathetically easy. If you actually put work in to gear yourself up and use proper skills, you'll breeze through 95% of the runtime with your eyes closed.

The story, such as it is, is a loosely connected series of vignettes, and many of them are on the good side- some are even excellent. Nevertheless, even the best of them can't push you past the feeling of perpetual patience, waiting for the painfully obvious revelations that loom and loom and loom for dozens of hours on end to finally unveil themselves so you can just get on with things. The party is okay, with the sole exception of Kiefer, whom I adored without reservation.

It's really very rare for me to give up on a game, especially one where I have so much time put into it. Even so, I must stress that while there are qualities in VII R that are certainly deserving of merit, the total package is almost painful in its simplification. This is a JRPG for the Netflix era of gamer; the type that leaves nothing to discover, nothing to bite, and, at least in my case, not all that much to feel.

Even at a deep sale, I can't recommend it, because the time investment simply isn't worthwhile.
