Dragon Quest 5 english on PCSX2

Playing the freshly fan-translated PS2 version of Dragon Quest 5 on PCSX2.
It is a very classic JRPG, with a beautifully orchestrated score, funny character and monster design and an intriguing storyline.

Fetch the japanese game off of Ebay, and go to http://www.dqtranslations.com/ for the complete english patch.

Thanks to the guys at DQ Translations for making this possible :)

Eh.. I like the DS version better, more fluid, and for me more beautiful to watch.

@Zungle

I suppose that version would be fine too, if it had the orchestral soundtrack.

Midi style works of course, but the orchestral music is just too awesome to miss.

I dont think it looks bad or anything, but it surely does when compared to Dragon Quest VIII :(

[ramapcsx2]

@mirrorpiece I really liked the simplified look. It fits the franchise. Also there's some later scenes in the game that look fantastic.

@TheCrazygamer81 Part 5 should run full speed if you keep the resolution low. DQ8 won't run well.

This is dragon quest V done right! I only wish that VI recieved a similar "treatment." Anyway, I am happy that the translation is complete. Now I can finally enjoy this classic and timeless version, in english. I thank the individuals responsible for this project. :)

Oh my, this game looks absolutely beautiful on emulator. It wasn't bad on my PS2, but this really puts it to shame!

[StThomasMore405]

@ramapcsx2 yea, I think you need at least 3.00 GHz speed to run at reasonable rates, preferably 3.2, 3.5-4.0 GHz should have it run at full fps

They actually remade this game in full 3D? I only beat this on DS, good story.

[ramapcsx2]

@excrono Yea, sadly the people at SE that decide these things have lost contact with the fans. I don't expect them to ever recover either :/

Thanks for posting this in HD quality to give me an idea of how this looked in PCSX. As a result I bought this game and applied the translation. I have not been disappointed. I can't understand why Square Enix would go handheld only with these remakes when this version looks (and sounds) so darned beautiful.
