 Yup we're playing dragon quest 4 today. Yep, this is the DS version of dragon quest 4, but it's not just any DS version of dragon quest 4. As you can see we are in the town of Endor. I wonder what our party members have to say about that. Oh would you look at that? Elena has something to say. Using Colosseum for wedding is a waste of good fighting time. So as you can probably tell we got the party chat back in dragon quest 4 for the Nintendo DS. This is a feature that was removed in the DS version in North America and we haven't had it in the in the DS version for years. We had to play the iPhone and the Android version to basically enjoy this feature where basically you walk around town you talk to random characters and your party members have something to say. So Ragnar, when he first came here the tourney was over and the casino was shut. There was a waste of... there wasn't a thing to do. He's got like he's got the Scottish accent. You see how much characterization is here that was missing in the original. Now you might be wondering like how the heck this happened. Basically we've never been able to get this done because the American the English version, the English and European version had certain files we needed cut out. So basically this is the Japanese ROM with an entire English translation that also translated the party chat so that the characters can talk to you. And that's how this is done and it works pretty well. I have tested it quite a bit and it works very very well. This is the end of the game. This is chapter 6 of Dragon Quest 4. So this is like post-game stuff we're gonna be running around. So I figured it would be fun if we took everyone out for a little spin. We like talk to characters and see what the party chat... how the party chat works. Just have a little bit of fun playing Dragon Quest 4. I don't know. It's been a while since I've played it. So I like this game a lot. It's a very fun game and this is how it's meant to be played with the characters being able to talk. So let's do some exploring. Why not? So right now the wedding is going on at Endor Castle. Have you come to see the royal wedding? Yes I have. Just check one of the doors to the left or the right and go inside the castle. Alright so we'll go to the the right most door. And the cool thing is you hit the B button and then your characters have something to say just like that. So Castle and Kirill and Elena have Russian accents in this game. So Castle is being filled with Bustle and Hustle. Perhaps this is an effect of never-ending nuptial ritual. Never-ending nuptial ritual. Oh my god. Can you believe that we got stuff like that removed from the original game? So yeah the DS version if you had B then there would just be nobody there to talk to you. But in the iOS version and the Android version these people would talk. So this script was basically ripped from the Android and iOS version and injected into the DS port. So this is like the complete definitive version of Dragon Quest 4. The characters don't always say something though. They don't always have something to say. Let's call CM royal wedding is taking place here. Alright let's check out the royal wedding. Why not? So there's some sort of wedding going on over here from the princess and the prince. They are basically having like a feud with their families and Elena and Tornico managed to unite the two kingdoms. So here we have what the wedding going on here. It looks like they're just dancing. I can't rotate my camera much either. I'm gonna have a hard time you know ad-libbing this. It is no wee bit risky for the prince and princess to be left without a single solitary god standing watch. Yeah I guess so but it looks like this is pretty public. Oh look at them they're kissing they're hugging. Colosseum is sacred brothel ground where true warriors clash in dramatic faction. Damn so Elena is not much of a romantic type. She's disappointed that there's no fighting going on in the arena. Well Sadevna one day married prince and ceremony resembling this. And yet this is idle speculation. He's such a simp. He's a simp. Okay uh so Caryl is upset about that. It's bringing back bad memories for him. Let's get the hell out of here. Alright let's go let's go to different places in the world. This is a big world. Request for the big world with lots of different places. So we're gonna check out some other places too. Let's talk to some people. We're an indoor right now. This is like the the city trade capital hub of the world. Tornaco has a little shop around here as a matter of fact we can go check that out. This is Tornaco? No that's the casino. Let's check out Tornaco's shop. There's his wife. There's Tornaco's wife. I forget that. My fellas away at the moment he went off traveling in search of legendary sword. The accents in this game are ridiculous. There's it's it's all uh it's fiends. It's ridiculous. There's Tornaco Talun we save if he is being with us. His wife can desist from anxiety. James Tornaco's mrs is a Bonnie Lassie and no mistake. She's wasted on that great god. Ragnar's like why does freaking Tornaco have such a hot wife. He's like his fat weirdo. Oh I'm sorry did not mean to bet on that Tornaco. Look at this. This is character interaction. These characters are like talking to shade about each other behind behind each other's backs. That is so funny to me. Think about it. They remove this in the original game. How how can we have a proper Dragon Quest 4 without this? This is the game is nothing without this kind of interaction. Here's Tornaco's kid his son. So they open up a bank. Establishing bank is not being simplistic. Oh I'm not even gonna try this anymore. Mental capacities. All right let's get the heck out of here. So yeah it's kind of cool. This is this is Endor and I figured we'd go check out some other kingdoms and see what else is there is out there. Princess Veronica and Prince Regan's wedding ceremony. Unbreakable universal only prince. Okay you see this right here. The the translation is not perfect. You see that little the big gap like it says only and then Prince. It's not perfect. There's a lot of coding involved. A lot of weird stuff involved. The guy who did this translation did a very good job. Obviously there's gonna be little bugs here and there like this. Oh my god this guy's so pathetic. Curls he's lucky he's such a good a good healer because otherwise I would not keep him around because he annoys the crap out of me especially with his AI which casting thwack on people and I'm missing. Here's the shady here's the shady weapons dealer in the back of town that sells all the good stuff. Not the crap. A lot of strange things on sale here. Let's see. This is the armor shop. Cloak evasion. Look how expensive that is. I could buy it though. It looks like I have how many do I have in the bag? I have one. Actually no I've got several. Ragnar, Mina, Sorrow, Kirill and Tornico are all equipped with it and then I could have sworn this they sold the meteorite or no they don't sell that here. That's uh that's at the immigrant town that Hank Hoffman starts. Now let's just get out of indoor. This place is annoying. Welcome to indoor. Okay there's that badass music. Previously I consider no one was as formidable or courageous to fight as Sarefna. When Solo is wearing Zinnithian equipment he has an appearance of true Zinnithian. Okay so another interesting thing. If you use this mod you can't name your character. That's one thing I was disappointed by. You are by default called Solo by everyone. You can't even name yourself. So you have to be Solo or if you're a female you have to be Sophia and that's just hard coded into the game and there's no way to get around that which is unfortunate but whatever it's not a bad price to pay. There we go good old hot air balloon and the map the DS's map. This is this is how it's meant to play because the mobile port it doesn't I don't think it has the uh the map that that goes on while you're also flying around. So let's see where should we go. There's so many places to visit. I don't even know where to begin. Hot air balloon by the way. Really badass air machine. I don't care what anybody says. It's a lot better than a flying whale. Oh it's turn nighttime. Well I guess we should find a place to rest for the night. Maybe this place. I'm sure this looks curious. This is the place where uh Kirill was bed struck. Mintos. See they even talk about the town they're in. Mintos is the location where everyone is. See he's talking about how this is the place where freaking where Kirill was was sick and in bed and we had to go find a few seeds to bring him back. He's feeling shame. He's so sad. Kirill's collapse. Shade of peace. Slap his face repeatedly. She slapped his face. Let me drag her to the hotel. Oh he's cashing in here. I'll check that in a second. Oh wow this guy's this guy's got the his eyes on none. Man trembles so violently his flowers petals to the ground. They talk about all the random characters that you meet. Look at that. Isn't that cool? That's awesome. All right who's this guy? See they talk about it. She's talking about how this guy was sleeping outside. You see this kind of attention to detail. You see how cool this is. The characters will literally say something after you talk to anybody like they'll have some sort of comment to say. That's crazy. Let's jump on it. Let's jump on a well. Jumped on a freaking well. Oh look a mini-metal. All right here's another thing. You see how this found mini-metal. They had to edit it. Normally I would say what look a mini-metal but in this hack they had to make it to change it to found mini-metal because of like character character limits and things like that and also a bunch of other technical stuff but they had to they had to make a few little changes like that. So there's obvious little little changes here and there. If it's saying what luck a mini-metal is that important to you then you might be disappointed but it's a couple things little shortcuts they had to make to get this whole thing to work and it's impressive. This is like thousands of lines of dialogue they had to get fit in. What is this guy doing here? Oh Ilton's apprentices huh? Maybe we'll hop in the hot air balloon and go try to find another place because it looks like we're running out of things to do here. My quest for the magical stuff. Rowan the wandering wandsman. Found myself in a town. Remember to have the links to the magical stuff. Oh it's hidden in a cave nearby. I feel like I have it already but I'll have to check. Yeah let's get out of here. All right so the coolest thing about Dragon Quest 4 is that you don't just have four companions. No no you have more because they're all hanging out on that wagon right there. So what we have is these characters including Sorrow the manslayer. Or is it just Sorrow I guess you can call him. Let's get him going. Let's get my girl Elena. Toughest girl ever and I'll get Ragnar McGrine. Sure. Let's see what Sorrow has to say. I'm fortunate because that possesses a Nithin sword and armor. She wants this Nithin claws. They should have mixed Nithin claws that would be cool. Ragnar wants equipment. Everyone's jealous that this guy's got this Nithin equipment. She wants an enemy somewhere that we're required to fight against. Our Mary Lou saying nay so not much to say there. I want Sorrow to say something. Maybe we can go visit Rose see what he says there. Rose Hill should be around here somewhere. Sorrow's got a girlfriend named Rose. Yeah this is where she lives. All right here's Rose Hill. This is the home of the dwarves. Oh too sorry. Welcome back. Everyone in the village is doing well it seems. See he's talking about the village. This is his village. Let's see what else is around here. Another dwarf. Wait is Rose with us? Oh she is. She follows us around when we're in here. They need to realize the friendship is not about what kind of creature you are. Oh it's not a nice message to send home. So Rose follows us around one more and Rose Hill. That's pretty cool. So we have a party of five. Okay. There's a horse. Whoa holy shit. I forgot that he talks. Oh my god. It's great to see that Sorrow. Oh god. That always gets me out of it because I okay. Horses and Dragon Quest do talk sometimes. Like in Dragon Quest 3 there's a horse called Ed the Talking Horse. Always freaks me out. Always freaking freaks me out whenever an animal in the series talks. Sammy sells every time when you're not knowing where you should journey next. Yes I'm having that moment right now. Kind of wish Dragon Quest 4 would just last forever but it can't unfortunately because you know. Who's this? Rose. Stop being discriminatory towards humans lady. This place is just full of dwarves who hate humans or I guess they're indifferent. There's good equipment here too. Rose Hill. Basically Rose was trapped in this. Oh look at this. Another dwarf man. All right. You get it. Talking to monsters and humans and all that. Give me that. Open it. Oh look at that. A mini-metal. A mini-metal. What do you know about what happened on Rose Snatched? The humans didn't go to a room alone. Some kind of monster led them there. Like well what is that supposed to tell us? You know where you need to go next I'm sure. Huh. Some kind of monster. That means that there was some kind of conspiracy against sorrow. Isn't that what that means? Huh. Interesting. Wonder what level everyone is. Level 99 huh? Not bad at all. Yeah these guys are pretty tough. Who's this guy? See Rose is a good lady. She agrees that humans are not so bad. Coming here is your way of showing pity towards me. I'm afraid you're wasting your energy. That is the eager to flower in our thoughts with my own eyes. Oh that was a nice little stop by Rose's place. Let's go check some other places out. Let's see what little Hank Hoffman's up to. He probably didn't do anything yet. What is this place again? I forget which castle that is. Forget it. Let's go back to Zamasuka or whatever the heck that place Elena and Kiro are from. I know this map really well. When you play this game you gotta like learn where everything is is the thing. That's a big thing about the game. Here we go. Are there people in this castle? What the heck? Oh this place is still overwhelmed by monsters. I forgot about that. Forgot about that. Didn't we save everyone? Geez. I'm sure they're probably here. Maybe there's a super boss stuck around. Let's walk around and see what's going on here. There's this guy. I'm very much happy to see you after such a loop. Huh. See she's even talking about her father. If only we had a Kiro here. You could tell us what he thinks but we dropped him off in favor of Sorrow because Sorrow's a badass. We like Sorrow. What do you have to say? Interesting. You see how fresh this experience is? Just having the party chat dialogue makes this worth playing another time. It makes it worth playing a second time. What is with all these guys in this world and nuns? They're all into nuns. What the heck? That other town had a guy who was also in love with a nun and the nuns were probably like no I can't. Okay. Where the heck is Joseph Starling? I'm just really confused about what's going on here. This is an old save. It's an old save. I don't remember what happened. It's like one of those situations where you play an RPG after a while and you kind of don't know what the heck's going on. I have to play this from start. Like from scratch if I wanted to get a fresh experience. What's my favorite town in Dragon Quest 4? Let me think. Gotta think. Let's just fly around. That's the French place I think. Oh no the French. What's this place? Old Finn. Is this Tornico? Yeah this is Tornico's town. This is where he used to live. The dog's guarding his house. There's not much here for us to be honest. I'm looking around. Trying to find things to do. This cave. Did we go into this cave? Ah this is the water cave. Ah sandpipers. These guys are cake. These guys are easy. All right let's you gotta to get into there. You need to throw a certain stone. I wonder if we have it. Does it look like we have it? I don't think we do. Shoot. There's like a rock that you have to find that. All right looks like we don't have it. Let's go grab it then. No reason not to. Damn sorrow is a beast. Look at that. Just destroying these guys. I'm a big fan of caves. They're always abundant with rare and powerful monsters. They are that they are. So they say something after any situation. It's like it's like they're real. It's like they're real people. It's like they're real life people. Okay uh let's to get that stone. I'm pretty sure we have to go all the way to the west. Yeah that's that's where we need to go. All right hopefully we can check that out. Damn it's taking a while. Ah here we go. Down here in the shore there's Is it night? It is night I think. What the heck? Where's that that that stone then? The sage stone? No that's not it. Sage stone gives you your magic back. I'm pretty sure uh I'm pretty sure this stone's not in our pocket right now. Silver tarot cards those are nice. Let's see. I'm just trying to check to see if we have it in our pockets. Dragon shell that's a lot of aegersil. That's four aegersil leaves. I thought you could only have like one at a time. I'm just joking. I know you can't, I know you can't get more by cheesing the game. But technically you're only supposed to, you're only allowed that one technically. All right we'll use the nightlight I guess. Who has a nightlight? Somebody's gotta have it. Forgetting about the nightlight also. These guys have some good equipment. I like equipping Elena. Not with this claws but she has good equipment. I like using the the falcon knife earring because it lets her go twice. That was nice. Where's that stupid nightlight? What do I not have it? Oh here it is. Uh-huh. I need to pay more attention. All right so nightlight has been extinguished. I guess I must have taken it at some point but maybe it's gone. Whatever. Forget about that place. Let's just go keep exploring. What else haven't I found yet? There's gotta be some more cool places to visit. This is a pretty cool world but a lot of different things going on. Oh yeah the immigrant town. Forgot about that. Here's the immigrant town. We're Tank Hoffman. There he is. Has he started yet? All right let's see what he needs. Lazy fair. All right we'll help him out. All right instead of flying our balloon now let's use the old fashioned zoom. So let's go to Lazy Fair. Here we go. There's somebody over the church by Lazy Fair apparently. Looking for a new life? Yeah we can help him out with that. All right so here's a church. All right so she wants to leave. Sure I'll tell her. I don't know how much to say about that. All right I'll just zoom back to Hank Hoffman's town. Hoffman's Place. This game is cool because you can make your, basically this is your town and you can build town up and ask people to join and they start building settlements and buildings and all sorts of cool stuff and eventually it becomes a huge town. It's a long grind though. Probably won't do it when it's sitting right now. We're mostly showing off the party chat. That's the main draw of today's video. He has a little house on the prairie. So he has a little house now. That's nice. Oh here's my favorite character here. Europe like Chrono Trigger. You know Frog from Chrono Trigger. Look it's Frog. And he talks and he even has the sophisticated language that he uses. I feel as if I've woken up from a slumber of 1,001 years. I think this is actually the same one, the same character. See he's all he's all sophisticated. Oh yeah I've heard the rumor. All right all right keep talking. Let's get some mini medals. I know there's some around here. Our bunny tail. Oh it's that kind of game huh. I know there's a mini medal around here. There we go. Let's go. Yeah you want to do this to get those mini medals also. Any good books? Get some good books lady. Who's that guy's wife? Oh yeah Adrian and Rocky. Rocky and Adrian huh. Isn't that an interesting reference to a certain movie? I didn't even realize that until now. The heck. He's a fighter. Wait wait she said he's a fighter right? He's out there in the fields living away. He always was a fighter. This game is so clever and silly and every single character you invite here there's a character named Elvis Presley who you invite and he talks like Elvis. He called you hound dog. It's funny. It's like really funny. All right let's get the heck out of here. So let's see. That was a castle. Oh this is a wee castle. It wouldn't last long against the battalion beasties. Princess Veronica this is her town right? This is her city. They were about to launch an attack on Endor and then Tornico saved it. Let's go talk to the king. Why not? Oh where the hell is he? He's at the wedding of course. Yeah see he's at the wedding. So she raised Prince Regan huh? The king of this kingdom is an asshole. He basically was going to invade Endor and he only decided not to because if his son marries Veronica then he'll still become the king regardless. So kind of not really. It's not really well let's get going. It's fine what else is here? Oh it's a poisoned marsh. Is there anything else to look for? There's gotta be some more interesting places to hang out. Things we haven't done. Oh this is the, I like this place. Femmescira the place where only women or only women are allowed. It's locked at night. Come back in the morning. Screw that. How am I supposed to go to sleep? All right I'm gonna have to probably rest up and in nearby. Let's go think we have a hot air balloon. Or where's the end? Point me in the general direction. A kitty cat. Okay he's meowing. This is the town that Ragnar came from right? What do you make of El Boni, Berlin? It's no bad spot eh? No I wouldn't say it isn't or is Berlin celebrated for physical strength of the army. A land I want to turn into palace guards. Hey we saved the world already with plenty of time. Damn there's homeless guys sleeping on the streets out here. Damn I did not realize there's that kind of homeless issue here in Berlin. Where's the king? Ah the king's already sleeping. We only came here to see if we can get some rest. He's asleep. 36 gold but hell that's a lot of money. No it's not really. All right let's get that guy out of here. Now we can go to the kingdom of only women. Top over the mountains and right here. This is a bonnie place all right? He calls everything a bonnie place. What's not a bonnie place to this dude? Castle guard of feminins. Certainly we are in Themyscira. All right let's go. There's only ladies here. There's something a boot a castle built by lassies. Everything this feels a wee bit different. Elena's great. I like having her around. Did you know if you go behind these stairs and go there's a staircase underneath behind it? Ooh did you know about this? I bet you didn't know about this. Oh look at that the fire claw. Elena would like that I think. Huh I bet she would. There's a dragon quest 4 so we jumped down wells on natural with the heck. There's a witch lady here. I think we have that. That's interesting right? There's so much interesting weird stuff in this game. Like you got on a well and there's a weird witch down there. Come on where else are you going to find stuff like this besides dragon quest 4? All right I want to go to the dungeon because I know the dungeon has a lady who likes solo. I hear you. Oh that's not the dungeon. That's where the treasure's in. Maybe here. I hear you. Got any good gossip? I guess not. Oh wow these guys. I could have sworn we had the jail key to let people out. No problem to me. Let's go see how did the queen before leaving. We'll come all this way and know she's telling us to make her so scarce. She's a Bonnie lass. Everything's Bonnie to this guy. Oh thanks. This guy's letting me go into the drawers. I did not. Oh my god. Are you kidding me? Are you actually kidding me right now? I'm freaking punk. Getting arrested. I'm being framed for someone else stealing from the drawer really. There's no throwing us into the dungeon of course. You see how you can do stuff like this out of order? Most people have already done this by the time they beat the final game but it's like I haven't done it yet. We gotta get the heck out of here. Now what? No it's not correct. What if I say yes actually? Yes the lady was lying okay? I wonder who they're going to leave in the cell. Well I have no problem with them leaving Maya. She's kind of useless. Don't be leaving me here. This is obviously nonsense. I'm hating you now solo. Well I don't care. Bye. Let's get that guy out of here. There's no problem to me. Alright so we're just gonna leave Maya here because in the jail cell because I don't have the patience to go save her. They thought they did something. We're gonna take one of your uh your people as hostage unless you get our treasure back now. I'm good. Bye. Let's go back to Endor. It's messed up. That is so messed up. Well maybe we'll get back to her later. If you guys enjoy this, if you guys think this is fun and you want to play DQ4, let me know. I mean I can do it. This would make a really fun let's play don't you think? Why not? It'd be a great let's play. I'm trying to remember which one is Endor. It's probably this. Yep this is Endor. Alright well we should probably get some some sleep. Getting very tired. Even has a casino down here. I don't want to try to play casino. Let's play the casino. The casino in this game is absolutely crap because it's like you you are not gonna win. Let's play the next tokens. Let's see if I win. Bull. Oh I ain't doing anymore of this. There's cards here. There's monster battles. The monster battles are a crap shoot. Like it's you are not gonna you're gonna be down here for hours. This game fuels your gambling addiction. I hate coming to this casino. I'm leaving. Bye. Actually I want to see what what my party members had to say. Maya is a huge gambling addict by the way. You learned that through the party chat which was cut out of the original of course. I didn't get to read. He's talking about Maya. Maya likes gambling. Maya loves gambling. She obsessed with gambling and like money. Alright let's where's our room gonna be? This is my room. We can't really fit in here. I was just gonna guys say yep I agree with that. Nobody knows anything to say yet. Maybe here. Man this is like this is like one that the worlds have a wedding in real life. People are already obsessed with it. Yeah I just went there. Oh you made a pretty tack down there. Good for you. I haven't had that kind of luck. People see she's like I don't believe people care about splendid wings. I prefer splendid battles in the Colosseum. She's like so crazy meatheaded. Alright you know what? That was a good showcase of what Dragon Quest 4 looks like with this party chat feature restored. This is a DS version of Dragon Quest 4 and the party chat is back. They have managed to put it back in. Concreted on GitHub made a whole patch. You gotta know Python to install it and it was a little bit of a hassle but it works. As you can see it works perfectly fine. This is fun. This looks like it would be a great you know way to play the game. If you want me to play the game let me know in the comments. I might be able to do a let's play of this if you guys are interested because nobody's ever done a let's play of party chat to restore Dragon Quest 4 and I could probably figure out how to do it and we can get a little a little series going on if you guys are interested. So please let me know how enjoyable this video is. Did you enjoy the video? Please let me know. Anyway thanks for watching and I'll see you guys next time.
