DQIX Trailer

Well as I'm sure some of you know, particularly those from Dragon's Den, someone recorded part of the new DQIX trailer on what seems to be their mobile phone and uploaded it to YouTube. It's just an anime-style intro and doesn't show any gameplay. There's also word going around that it may just be the old trailer from TGS 2007.

It's unlikely that this sort of FMV will occur in-game since it looks like your party's appearance is fully customisable. Of course, there could still be FMV used for introducing new areas or enemies. I'd say a lot of DQ fans, particularly the older ones, won't be too happy with FMV since it may remind them a little to much of Final Fantasy. However, since DQVIII has set a standard for DQ being a beautiful game to look at - many people put it alongside games such as Okami for being one the best looking PS2 games - it would be nice to see DQIX keep this up in some way and FMV may be its best shot since it's on a console far less powerful than a PS2.
