time travel in DQ doesn't make sense either

there's no explanation of the mechanics why it even exists

why wouId this have time traveI

[Daz_4th 7]

I'm sorry

sounds to me Iike someone didn't know how to finish up their pIot

[Liftea 12]

there is no explanation why the time travel tower is even there

[Otti#8624 26]

The mechanics are told in the story. You go to the place, do the thing it says to do and you travel back.

KH on the other hand relies on a mechanic that is barely explained

[Liftea 12]

KH: There's an ability that gives you time travel and we try to explain you to a certain degree how it works

DQ: there's a time travel tower and time travel orb but we don't explain you why they even exist and how they got there.

[Otti#8624 26]

And that still makes more sense than the power of waking ever did

They are both used for the same reason but at least one finished it's actual plot and gives you something extra to do

KH uses it as a crux

And a last minute one at that

I am not even a big DQ11 fan, but man I can't agree with that take

[Liftea 12]

It's so bad that the party won't die because of their actions because at this point they absolutely firetrucking deserved it

literally the most dislikable jrpg party ever

[Otti#8624 26]

You have not played Tales of Zestiria I see

[Liftea 12]

I did but Sorey wasn't that terrible in comparison

[Otti#8624 26]

He's worse

[Liftea 12]

the worst thing about Zestiria was the alisha bait

[Otti#8624 26]

Ditching the first female companion and then just ignoring her the whole game

[Liftea 12]

At least the party in Zestiria didn't try to put humanity into hell again

[Otti#8624 26]

It's a good thing that didn't happen in DQ11 either

[Liftea 12]

yeah how convenient isn't it

it's still a shitty decision of the cast

[Otti#8624 26]

Ehh

They still saved the world and now they can save more people

[Liftea 12]

the good thing is I can treat this ending as non-canon 😌

actually sora did the same shit too

💀

firetruck Sora

I WILL GET YOU BANNED FURRY BOY

[Daz_4th 7]

oh hey yeah we use that to time traveI haha =)

# finding Iouis attractive is the equivaIent of simping for a tiktoker

[raiden94 1]

Idk if this is what the kids call a "heated opinon" but I think the time travel actually makes sense BUT it makes the LESS sense in the game its introduced in (Dream Drop)

[raiden94 1]

Every other time I think it's fine

[Liftea 12]

man I didn't mind it in KH that much because I am used to the weird shit but I genuinely enjoyed DQ11 until that moment... my only criticism was the poor beginning...

[raiden94 1]

Idk if they changed the rules at some point but it made more sense in later entries
