Bonus part 2 : Since I was there after they've shown us a new trailer for Dragon Quest I & II HD2D Remake during this summer Nintendo Partners Showcase, I had the occasion to experience a pre Dragon Quest release in Japan, kind of

No comment on if this was good or not, you really don't have to be as brain rotted as me and try it to know that it's a loss of money without much fun in return, let's be totally honest on that lmao
September 10, 2025 at 8:25 PM
Sorry, I have to post videos separately on Buffer
September 10, 2025 at 8:25 PM
Bonus part : I randomly found the Dragon Quest coin pusher, so as a Dragon Quest enthusiast, I had to try it out 😭
September 10, 2025 at 8:24 PM
We definitely had our share of fun in a very cosy place on top of that, and I'll hold those memories close to my heart because really, I was living the dream and still I find hard to realize I've been to all these places I've longed for so long 🥰
September 10, 2025 at 8:24 PM
It was then time to leave, so I took two last videos of the place because music has its importance there

Like I said, atmosphere 🎵
September 10, 2025 at 8:24 PM
Sadly, it was nearing closing hour when we wanted to try some desserts, so we couldn't, but I still bought a treasure chest filled with chocolate Mini Medals

But I'll definitely come back next time I'm in Japan
September 10, 2025 at 8:23 PM
Far bether than the food I must say, and it's not shocking since only those earn you coasters

Again, the food wasn't bad, but I wouldn't advise a non DQ enjoyer to go there for it

Then my brother ordered some more drinks and it earned me some more coasters so I was in awe lol
September 10, 2025 at 8:23 PM
These are the first drinks we ordered and we each choose the vocation that we all got at the personnality test that Square Enix did when Dragon Quest III HD2D Remake came out

My brother got the Priest one, my sister-in-law got the Sage and I got the Hero, they were tasty
September 10, 2025 at 8:23 PM
First plate are Slime buns stuffed with meat, second one is a BIG ASS turkey leg and last one, pretty experimental since I live in Switzerland, a Mimic raclette !

It was overall okay, nothing was really amazing per say, but it was far from being bad
September 10, 2025 at 8:23 PM
And if you complete all the cards and earn all four Mini Medals in the process, you earn the ultimate prize, a binder where you can insert all your cards, Mini Medals and it comes with a bigger sized Mini Medal

And I'll get it someday !

This was the food I ordered
September 10, 2025 at 8:22 PM
Each little card you see has a set number of Mini Medals you have to earn based on how much you spend there

Each time you complete a card, the clerks will give you another one, and if you manage to complete a certain amount of these, you get a Mini Medal replica
September 10, 2025 at 8:22 PM
Nonetheless, the atmosphere was on point and you truly feel like you just stopped by a good old tavern

You also earn coasters for simply going there and you also get one each drink you order

They also have a loyalty card system you can see on the last picture
September 10, 2025 at 8:22 PM
Last Dragon Quest destination the Luida's Bar located in Akihabara !

Know that if you wanna go there, you have to make an appointment first via the website

I was so happy to finally go there, even tho it wasn't the same place I used to see photos of during years since it moved
September 10, 2025 at 8:22 PM
Our adventure closing to it's end, and Zoma's castle throwing it's vicious shade uppon us, we decided it was time so free Onogard's people from their suffering

Knowing that after defeating him, we couldn't go back to the town, we said goodbye and made our way to this wicked lair
September 10, 2025 at 7:29 PM
This is a screenshot of our party with endgame equipment

The second one is funny and Dragon Quest X players will know why, but the background shown comes from a house from Version 3 of Dragon Quest X lmao
September 10, 2025 at 7:29 PM
Bonus quest also grants you a special collectible that I won't spoil either but they give it to you at the start along with the other stuff, advising you that it's better to open it after you've completed said bonus quest

I could take a picture of this special type of Mimic
September 10, 2025 at 7:29 PM
The difference between Gold and Premium being that they're basically the same, except Premium grants you some bonus items that you can carry home. For me it was the Erdrick shield bag along with other stuff, but I could choose between that or an Onion King Slime bag
September 10, 2025 at 7:28 PM
And yes, everyone in the party has to pay for a Gold Ticket if you want to play said bonus quest, you can't group up with someone with a standard ticket if you took a Gold or Premium, but Gold and Premium ones are able to play together, no issue
September 10, 2025 at 7:28 PM
I'd say that 3 to 4 hours is plenty enough if you wanna reach a good completion amount that will later figure on the photo you can buy at the end of the quest

Speaking of bonus quest, this one is only playable if you paid for at least a Gold Ticket (or Premium)
September 10, 2025 at 7:28 PM
So if you plan to go there, I promise, good shoes will be the best equipment you can bring there. That and a reasonable amount of water, even more during summer.

Also, take into account that you probably won't want to do it in a rush, even more if you do the bonus quest
September 10, 2025 at 7:28 PM
This whole quest had us searching for clues by speaking to villagers, accomplishing quests, finding mini-medals and chests, fighting monsters in order to level up and grind some money in order to upgrade our equipment

That implies that you have to go back and forth quite a lot
September 10, 2025 at 7:28 PM
Just know that staff there asks you to not spoil anything story wise or regarding puzzles so rest asured that I won't, I'm writting this thread just so you can build your own pre-opinion in case you're wondering it this is for you

Second picture are Robbin Ood's clothes btw
September 10, 2025 at 7:28 PM
At the reception, they gave us everything we needed and then it was time for us to choose our vocations, of course I picked warrior as the leader of our team (I was the only DQ fan of the group so they've let me hehe)

And after some lore, we've set out to explore the town
September 10, 2025 at 7:28 PM
First picture is the inside of the menu box I've shown you in the post above

Overall, it was a good experience even though it was built under a tarpaulin and we heard non-stop rain hitting brutally against it while we sat there
